Well, if you consider only Africa and the Middle East to be “global South”, then maybe. But I’d say South Asia is also a part, has most of human population there and pretty much is aligned with Russia and China.

You need a company for legal protection. There are too many idiots in this world who will try their best to sue you for no reason. The bigger you grow, the higher the risk. That’s why we have the Mozilla Corp and Linux Foundation: a company will pay a fine in the worst case scenario, but a private person behind the project is looking at a jail time.

That’s rich coming out of you!

No way!

Well, you can’t do anything meaningful at large scale without a company. Every large and popular open source project has a company behind and there are legal reasons behind it. If the Fediverse becomes big enough, there will be a point when a company will be required for it to function.

You do see blurrier in the dark, it’s just your brain filters it out. You can trick it though by looking at a small bright and moving object in the darkness, like a watch. You will notice that the image outside of bright watch moves with a delay and is blurred.

Also camera images are not that colourful in the darkness, unless you’re talking about computational photography tricks used in mobile phones. All optical systems follow the exact same laws of physics and they produce the same results. What’s different is post processing by a brain or your CPU in Lightroom.

Well, nothing is sad on its own, it all depends on the priorities of people behind. If the priority is to keep Fediverse small and under the radar, then everything is going great.

Nothing. Except that they don’t give a shit. Fedi population is tiny and irrelevant.

Let me put it into perspective. Currently Fediverse as a whole has around 50k daily active users and 1.3m monthly active users split between multiple services with Mastodon being the most active. These are the stats for something that exists for over a decade.

I used to work in a company making some social media products. When we launched our main product we had 1m daily active users within a month and I don’t remember how many monthly users (that was over 10 years ago). And it just grew from there.

Facebook Threads has 100m daily active users now. The whole Fediverse is a tiny echo chamber and no one cares or knows about its existence.

I put “shutter speed” in quotes for a reason. To gather the required amount of light, the sensor must be exposed to it for a specific amount of time. When it’s dark, the time increases. It doesn’t matter if it’s a camera or your eye.

And?

Good news from Syria, finally! I really hope they will manage to rebuild the country and treat all peoples of Syria as equals.

There are no issues with electronic voting.

NATO is pretty much dead now.

It has nothing to do with a neural stream, it’s basic physics.

NATO is not a guarantee anymore. Trump openly said that if specific European NATO countries will get attacked by Russia then there will be no response.

‘we don’t negotiate with terrorists’ US.

That US never existed.

Eyes do have a “shutter speed”, but the effect is usually filtered out by the brain and you need very specific circumstances to notice motion blur induced by this.

The title should be “anon can’t afford rtx5090”.
