You might be able to integrate into lemmy by adding your podcast rss into a lemmy community made for your podcast. Lemmy users could subscribe to the community and follow/discuss there. Feels like a redundant suggestion if your cms already supports activity pub, but as far as lemmy integration that's the only way I can think might work.

Maybe I should have worded it different. Once in a while places with high population centers have relative power shortages. According to that article the last California controlled blackout due to power shortages was 2022, so it's not like we're talking third world regular brownouts or anything.

I just meant it in the way that the power grid is old and was built during a time when we used less power, and while it generally works it's already at capacity and increasing capacity would require a lot of investment and cooperation.

In this particular case, a small grid controlled by one bureaucratic entity, as apposed to many bureaucratic entities across multiple countries, might be more easily modified. But, to my knowledge, none of them could support a sudden increase in power needs as they are currently (see the several big Texas blackouts, or the above article).

Twitter had 271 million monthly active users a decade ago

Mastodon was around for a while, slowly being built up until 2022 when the big twitter surge happened. They had the perfect foundation to make it the next big thing and all they had to do was keep the people who joined, make it slightly easier to join, and develop a few features like quote posts.

  • They banned and defederated everyone who wasn't in a very narrow sliver of political and technological opinions.

Mastodon lost it's momentum, but had a second shot a year or two later. Threads joined the network offering a massive user base that could talk with Mastodon users. Then Bluesky blew up and that was bridged so Mastodon could talk with those people too. Mastodon may not have been the center of things anymore, but it could be fully integrated into the other two.

  • Most servers defederated with threads and bridges.

There are other things that I'm sure play a roll as well. Luck, discoverability, easiness to join, people getting board, people looking at the next shiny thing, you name it. But it does look to be in many ways self inflicted.

No, all three grids US don't have the power to support most cars becoming electric atm. Heck, on the west coast they occasionally have controlled blackouts because there's not always enough power as it is. The Texas grid, while having some flaws, would probably be the most agile to be modified on a dime. The US east and west grid need to deal with the US Feds, US States, Canadian Feds, and Canadian provinces and would probably take more time to modernize.

Edit: Copying my below reply for clearification Maybe I should have worded it different. Once in a while places with high population centers have relative power shortages. According to that article the last California controlled blackout due to power shortages was 2022, so it's not like we're talking third world regular brownouts or anything.

You can prevent recall from running and collecting data, you just can't remove it entirely without breaking some features. I don't think you can replace the file explorer, it's your desktop n stuff as well as file exploring, but preventing recall from running might be your best bet. Or, alternatively, if you don't use the features that you lose in file explorer by removing recall then you might be fine just removing recall and continuing on.

I'd be afraid of wearing out a battery super fast. Outside of super long trips that require recharging to arrive, I'd much rather leave a car plugged in overnight rather than need to pay to replace batteries. Also, like @stoy@lemmy.zip said, it's a lot of power at once that could get dangerous if something goes wrong or overload grids if lots of people start fast charging their cars.

Though of course I'm sure it's a great achievement and hopefully the research is useful.

From my understanding, you can prevent Recall from running just fine, you only can't remove it.

[-] disguised_doge@kbin.earth 2 points 6 days ago

From the video sounds like it can be prevented from running, just not removed.

Also possibly Fennec for mobile. It's Firefox based but cleaned up like Librewolf.

That and Brave & Vivaldi have built in adblock that allows them to keep MV2 era adblocking despite being Chromium based.

1134

TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

Potentially, but in different ways. You could argue that mass defederation and hostility between communities are the beginning of a fediverse specific enshittification process. And instead of running out of money and then swamping platforms with ads, the big servers could run out of money or get a bored admin and instances could dissapear. Constantly dissapearing instances could also be a fediverse specific enshittification process.
