  Also, the payload needs to be worse than what you are already disclosing…

  IMO we need to break in a few independent but cooperating systems;

  1. A transportation service where consumers will request the transportation of goods or people from point A to point B, and providers will make bids for those requests.
  2. A storage service where providers will offer storage of goods at specific locations, and consumers that make requests for the storage.
  3. A LC service, where two parties can enter an letter-of-credit (LC) contract, and providers can guarantee the contract.

  If these systems are available, it would be possible to implement additional services like;

  • Decentralized eshops.
  • Decentralized passenger transportation services.
  • Decentralized food delivery.
  • Probably many more.

  Friendly reminder that the high seas are always an option. Download stremio, install the torrentio addon, and you are good to go.

  I have fully switched to kagi, it’s not perfect but for the average case it’s better than google.

  I show my hairdresser a picture of my previous haircut (or one I like).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has anyone tried Proton VPN?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have been using for the past month. I am not a power user, I mostly use it when I need to access libgen. Previously, I was using nordvpn. I feel proton is faster both when connecting to a server but also the connection is faster/more reliable. For example, if I forget to turn it off, I can watch a yt video without any issues.

  While the question is hilarious, the lack of references to in depth guides is a bit alarming…

  They also scare the crap out of my dog, and cause a lot of accidents. Though, they can be beautiful…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where's all the intelligent discussion at?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy’s user base is pretty interesting, you will find interesting discussions in pretty much most communities. However, if don’t find something interesting, don’t be afraid to start a discussion on your own. Coming from Reddit I used to be afraid of the harassment, but Lemmy is a safer space ❤️

  Some general pointers:

  1. Beehaw is a good place to look for interesting discussions
  2. If you find an interesting comment, take a look at the author’s profile, chance is they have more interesting for you to find
  3. Filter by subscribed and hot/active
  4. Look for opinion articles

  Is this what autism feels like? Sometimes yes, a lot of us feel isolated, struggle with socialization and connecting with others. Othen it helps to find other ND people, they are just as interested in whatever niche topic you are thinking about.

  PS Yesterday, I started a post on AskLemmy after pondering about how technology and science is changing at a faster pace than people (mostly professionals) can adapt.

  That sounds a bit misleading, the server implementation is FOSS too, at any time someone could setup their own instance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There is Alovoa, it’s open source, still has a small user base, but you don’t have anything to lose…
