It doesn’t? Something with 1000ms is going to be less responsive than 100ms geographically closer, though I don’t know how much it varies.
I assume that me, being the the US, will have a significant enough high ping by being on an instance that’s hosting in Finland. I never used the wrong terminology, just was asking about how to find the lowest ping — I only said I was trying to find the lowest ping because lemmy.world’s servers are shutting the bed. I can see where the extrapolation comes from though, didn’t make it clear enough.
I think we could definitely be moving towards that kind of world, maybe without the literal rich person spaceship, but with AI defended compounds and AI controlling the population so their position in power could never be threatened again.
Same — after seeing how similar it could be to Apollo (thanks wefwef), I got very excited to be a part of a greater movement towards a defederated platform, especially as I learned more about it.
It’s like being a part of a giant email server that large corporations don’t have minute detail controlled to maximize profit.
They are on the same "network", but that only means they use the same format to exchange messages. It does not mean that they work well together. The Lemmy UI is much better suited for posts with large discussion threads.
Basically you can treat them as separate for all intents and purposes.
Yeah exactly — Reddit hasn’t been profitable ever. Probably explains why they fired the person who actually was hired to do celebrity AMAs and leaving it to volunteers. Celebrity AMAs are probably one of the better ways to attract attention, but of course are pretty expensive.
People are fucking weird — cameras in bedrooms and across the house for kids/teenagers that aren’t babies, using tracking apps like Life360 to watch every minute of their teenager’s life, as if they weren’t unsurveilled teens doing their own mischevious shit, tapping into their search history, looking through their private conversations with friends, and probably a million more things.
Being a kid under a helicopter parent in this technological era must fucking suck.
Yea they shouldn’t be involved with legislating but our legislature and the people meant to represent us have devolved so much that the Supreme Court is basically the only functioning legislating body—and has been for a long time, atleast since Roe vs. Wade.
Our legislature is a failure, the Supreme Court as it stands wouldn't have much power or authority to make these legal changes if this country actually made laws.
Not sure why people care so much, they are only hurting themselves and the communities hosted on their insurance — way more than the damage to .ml or .world
Yea the internet definitely has taken that trend to the extreme in recent years, especially with businesses which don’t make their own websites anymore and host their social media on platforms like Facebook; of course along with individual communities slowly being herded into the corporate mega forum that is Reddit. Definitely not healthy to have all our human interaction/information controlled by these entities especially as we move into the age of artificial intelligence.
Yea there were already earlier reports of this so no surprise here. Imagine not only dying for a useless war, but your government covers up your death and countless others to avoid paying your family some scraps of useless rubles.
Especially considering another instance will just make a new one in order to popularize it instead, even if it’s not .world which is shaping up to be the “main” instance
I don’t think it’s the content — there’s already Reddit reposting bots available. It’s the lack of comments which makes Lemmy feel more lonely/less active. I wonder what the average non-bot comment count is for most posts on r/all

I realize. I just wanted to make a new account with the lowest ping instance while the server is upgraded at lemmy.world
Yea ended up choosing a pretty popular one near me, hopefully they don’t shut down or something though. Thanks!
Ever see the movie Elysium?

This solely relies on the many worlds interpretation being true, but is an interesting thought experiment nonetheless.

Man is the future just going to be eternal rent, Florida & Cuba under water, and everlasting haze from fires from across the world?

Yea it really wouldn’t matter other than having religious dogma change or about what happens after death.
It’s more of an interesting thought experiment about the seemingly minuscule chances of life forming and us being/experiencing life.

I meant Memmy, typo because I use wefwef more now
