  I believe this mode of communication was actually standardized.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Improve your Wi-Fi with this one trick⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  They do kind of oscillate, just very very quickly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Improve your Wi-Fi with this one trick⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure if you’re being sarcastic but this is not true. Electromagnetic waves travel fastest in a vacuum, so the presence of air would slow it down very slightly and I would expect higher air pressure would slow it down further again only incredibly slightly because the electromagnetic waves would be traveling through a medium less efficient and more different than a vacuum.

  Of course I’m making an assumption that you were using wireless signals. For all I know, you could have some weird acoustic link in which case you’d be absolutely right.

  It’s OK. Consciousness is but a brief anomaly in the vast sea of time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As the Canada "tax holiday" starts, Walmart increased the price of an item by the amount I would have saved⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Fine should be a direct cut of company value or profits. Proportional, not an absolute value.

  Oh my

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This store owner will be glad to touch it for you⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Touching me
  Touching youuuuu

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As the Canada "tax holiday" starts, Walmart increased the price of an item by the amount I would have saved⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It is, and they don’t care.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm an educator and have to tell my students the same lie every day.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Make them work for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Congratulations.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  And here I was thinking Lemmy is niche. I’m proud that Lemmy had enough traffic to do that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I got my carbon offset right here officer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I want saw somebody put a support the environment sticker on the biggest, most gas guzzling, coal rolling ego-mobile the world has ever seen.

  I had myself a giggle.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help, what have I found⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You know they’re going to raise your rent anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨everything's going according to plan⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Step 1. Profit!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Melodic Midnight Time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m impressed with the plausibility of those clock faces. I had to look before I noticed errors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The greater good⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  FAFO

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you mean you aren't leaving?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What if my trauma is abandonment issues?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Howling retriever⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I had a lovely although odd kitten until it turned out that she was actually a bobcat. Had to let her go.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fileless Malware Evades Detection-Based Security⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Adept comparison! They are both difficult to destroy, and caused by misfolded or misappropriated software without actually putting new files or executables on the system. They are part of the system itself, integrated tightly into the existing software in memory.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In Germany, a Man Who Was Stabbed by a Jihadi Has Been Fined for Criticizing Islam⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, he has a point. Specifically the one he got stabbed with.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fileless Malware Evades Detection-Based Security⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a hard problem because fundamentally I understand that fileless malware is when an application is attacked and it causes unintended behavior. But how do we define unintended? How is a piece of software supposed to figure out that another is doing something it’s not designed to do? Heuristically, and that means things will fall through the cracks. They’ll always be problems when the attacker straddles the line between normal behavior of the application and doing malicious activity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NYPD confirms suspect had a British accent⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The public reaction to this event has been amusing to say the least.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is an engineer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s practical. I haven’t known many engineer types to make a huge deal of graduation per se. It’s just the next step in a bigger procedure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does an international porn site like Pornhub take accents into account with their algorithm? Does an Australian watching Pornhub porn tend to get more porn with Australian accents than an American?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My understanding is that the American accent tends to be popular in all kinds of media overseas. This is by no means an expression of American dominion or superiority. However, I understand that for example in Sweden it’s popular to use American phrases during sex.

  With that said, I expect the IP address from which your connection originates affects the videos presented to you based on your region.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fashion is cyclical⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Does that include me?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which band are you on?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  2m for nets, 10m for QSOs because that’s all my radio can handle.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plasticccc⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Plasticccc

  Aye, but it’s based on a real treasure chest!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Currently happening⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s the risk you take. I’ve met some of the most interesting people this way. If you go into it with an open mind and understand that usually it’s not going to work out, you’ll be better for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's Mastodon precious?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Let’s see it then. I’m concerned when the opportunity to profit arises that perverse motives will occur.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Another of God's cruel tricks.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t worry. You’ll get the rest of the little ones with your feet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not the worst sales technique.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ain’t half bad.
