I also like the wide range of sources to pull down content and have it available vs sometimes having to wrestle with a streaming site in the moment.

You can't uninstall this software without being forced to participate in their survey (lemmy.world)

I initially only installed “Comodo Firewall” but for some reason they also installed a “Comodo Dragon Browser”, which I did not consent to. I always choose the “advanced” installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in...

Delete from response where id = *

Bonus points if you can enumerate all tables.

The Enterprise SKU I don’t believe has that added.

We have to rely on the prep version mostly, which has the shenanigans. Fortunately, you can turn those things off after the fact.

What we are fighting with now is trying to deploy an image without the advertised apps, but since they are provided by the CDN, which cannot be disabled (yet).

Possible, but the tolerances would be a lot for people. Also, one would need a solid stream of supplies.

The idea is pretty ironic. If one was patient enough, they could design a CAD machine that would write out their prints. I believe I had seen them before. The problems with that machine are speed and efficiency.

That was my gut reaction, but that logic also perpetuated leaded fuel.

Facebook still does this to me. I log in via Web app now.

I can’t speak to the quality issues, but I understand that some of the accidents are caused by the software correcting unexpectedly, and the user overcorrecting. This is compounded by changes to the software and features.

The glaring engineering issue I have seen is issues with the batteries being discharged and users having no access to the vehicle even though the aux power has juice left (this could be backwards).

For the fires, the lithium batteries become incendiary devices once they are ruptured.

Unless we can do something about the batteries flaming and burning the contents to pure ash, they will gain a worsening reputation on their own.

Best I can say is that you have your local server, which is the server you originally signed up in. You then have all the rest of the connected (federated) servers that can see what you say.

Each server is its own mini-lemmy, so it is broken down into communities just like subreddits. Each has its own server administrators and each community has its own moderators.

Regarding content delivery, it seems to be about the same process: a link, image, video, or text from a certain community. The responses are similarly threaded with buttons for interaction.

The largest differences I have seen are that each server instance can have duplicate communities. Different servers have different tolerances for communities. In extreme cases, whole servers can be blocked (defederated) from your server. This is usually due to unwanted behavior from the users that is not curbed by the moderators or extreme communities that cause hardship for other users.

This is what I got after about a week of lurking. If I’m not correct, please let me know.

How much of your life have you degoogled? (beehaw.org)

We're reaching the end of an era wherein billions of dollars of investor money was shovelled into tech startups to build large user-bases, and now those companies (now monoliths) are beginning to constrict their user-bases and squeeze for every single penny they can possibly extract. Fair or not....
