  • I umderstand your reasoning and I sure hope the fediverse will succeed. I doubt the normies will come over any time soon, but that is not really a bad thing. What is bad tho, is the fragmentation of data over so many instances, duplicate communities not knowing about each other and the censorship some instances apply. I don’t even know how some of these will get fixed or if they will ever, as they are core part of a decentralized architecture. I miss infinity tho, eternity for lemmy worked for a while but it’s no longer maintained :(












  • Usb is a carrying digital signals for the most part while headphonea are analog. So you have 2 options:

    1. Implement some janky non-standard analog audio in some usb alternate mode that will only work with some devices
    2. Add a digital to analog converter in the plug itself, which is more complex and expensive

    Both options prevent you from chanrging while using headphones unless you use a splitter or wireless charging which is not ideal

    3.5 mm may not be the king, but it’s extremly simple and fairly robust and has little to no disatvantages except for wireless headphones sales ofc. You don’t have to charge these heqdphones, you don’t have to worry about losing one of them.

    Wireless headphonwa have their uses, I doubt they benefit the majority of people tho.


  • When you put out photos of yourself on the internet you should expect anyone to find them and do whatever they want to them. If you aren’t expecting that, then you aren’t educated enough on how internet works and that’s what we should be working on. Social media is really bad for privacy and many people are not aware of it.

    Now if someone took a picture of you and then edited it without your consent, that is a different action and it’s a lot more serious offense.

    Either way, deepfakes are just an evolution of something that already existed before and isn’t going away anytime soon.



  • Because for the half of people that take longer trips some might consider bikes unsuitable. And for the half that does take short trips I doubt they would care or even consider it, just like you. But I guess that’s enough offtopic for this thread. So if you want to take the car out for a 2km trip go for it, as for me 8’ll just walk it, I don’t mind a bit of rain or snow as I specifically chose a city that is walkable so I got all I need in 30 mins walking distance or bus ride. I don’t even need a car inside the city unless grabbing something heavier from the supply store, but even for that I can go see the item in the store and they will deliver it. Definetly not a daily thing tho
