It's great! I use it on both my home server and my Hetzner server. It blocks connections based on behaviors defined by scenarios. I configured it to block any connections it decides to block via the firewall.

So far, so good. I don't even know it's running. It just does its job of blocking bots.

In history, we learn two things. Either you can work within the system by voting, pressuring the government to change its stance, or striking like the French. Or, you can spark a revolution to change the current order.

If you don't vote, you're being passive, like Humpty Dumpty, just looking at the world pass you by without making your mark.

My take, if you don't vote, you don't have the right to complain, simple as that.

According to the laws of physics, you can't. Light in fiber optics does not travel instantaneously to your location. The farther away the server is, the greater the latency will be.

The only way to reduce latency is to choose a service with servers closest to your location.

Because the pope’s message could influence some Americans, but is unlikely to be heeded by people in China, Thiel argued, the encyclical threatened to slow down only one side of the “race between the US and China” to advance AI.

His argument simply doesn't make sense. After all, communism is about the abolition of religion. The Chinese Communist Party strictly regulates religions in China. Of course, the Chinese are not influenced by the Pope because most of them are not Christian.

I mean, what the hell is he talking about?

These small variations tend to happen because the data is not perfect. The important thing is to see how it trends over time. When we clean up the data to reduce the noise of the ups and downs, we see that it's trending up.

It is a federation of multiple instances with one goal in mind: to liberate human interaction from gamification and algorithm manipulation that makes you addicted to the platform, allowing them to brainwash you with targeted ads.

As for Lemmy/Piefed, the goal is to liberate and free human speech without profiting from it or being manipulated by algorithms and features like Reddit's karma system.
