Why does it matter? If they don’t think something is a bot, how could they be less likely to reply if it’s a bot?


No, not really. It just depends. One of the first things I blocked on Lemmy years ago was the “Lemmit” not which just copied tons of posts verbatim from Reddit. If bots are posting articles, maybe I comment. If a bot posts something discussion oriented, I’m not replying.
Huge caveat, all this is about transparent bots. If I think something is a bit masquerading as a human I don’t reply.

Top level domain. “.com” “.gov” etc. are top level domains. The headline is slightly incorrect.


No, only top level comments specifically.


I hate communities that are hyper strict about pointless things about that. The post volume is rarely enough to justify that level of filtering. Besides, hardware is definitely related to self hosting.


One thing I see a lot of instance specific meta communities that only allow top level comments from users if that instance. Auto removing those form other instances would be useful.


No, it’s impossible. The tech just isn’t there yet. We need AGI to be able to detect a string.


Modern touch screens work well enough to not really require styluses to feel good though. So modern styluses feeling annoying isn’t as big of an issue for most uses.


Yeah I can type quick now because of video games. My form is shot though but it works. I never use my left index finger. No idea why. (When playing shooters I still use it for D though I’m WASD.)

If you have a problem with me just say it! >:(


I’m not paying for a search engine. Duck Duck Go for everyday usage. Yandex when I’m looking for media.


In the US right now, we’re seeing this unfold. With the talk about classifying transgender folks as nihilistic violent extremists, who fucking knows.


Yep. Shutting down the API was 100% because they were angry they got scraped and didn’t get money.
Any set of colors can make a primary color palette. It’s just that we most often mean for human eyesight.
Even then, when talking about perception, because the response of red and green comes in our eye overlap we need imaginary colors to uniquely express them. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/CIExy1931_ProPhoto.svg/1280px-CIExy1931_ProPhoto.svg.png
I believe the actual quote is “Eraser head is my most spiritual film”.
But looking at bright light still hurts your eyes. When I go from my dark bedroom to my bathroom with an Eastward facing window with the sun coming in full blast it hurts my eyes. Also nothing about the search says anything about retina damage specifically.
