I plan to sell the vertical ones at https://www.jilanico.com

They use a single coin cell. Last a good long while, like several nights.

The horizontal ones can be found on Amazon and are rechargeable. They are prone to falling off so I removed the internal spring and glued them to my shoes.

Thanks :) you could probably apply the vertical ones to a jacket. They Velcro on. I plan to sell them at https://www.jilanico.com

I think Snow Crash is worth reading as one of the defining works of the genre, even if I don’t think it holds up as well as Neuromancer.

I agree with this take 👍 I didn’t enjoy Snow Crash, but it was undeniably influential and in many ways prescient. I loved Neuromancer.

Bummer :( bad actors ruining it for everyone.

So what does this mean for lemmy.world users? Can we still seamlessly see beehaw communities but not post/comment?

As for beehaw users, I assume we and our communities simply do not exist, right?

The bullet points in beehaw’s announcement mention bad actors, trolls, and unvetted users.

When you say “we” do you mean lemmy.world folks? I see you’re from kbin 🤔 who is Ernest?

Depends on the instance, as far as I know. Some require a short written intro, some require email verification, some let you sign up without even an email.

Just email verification. A troll can make a throwaway email, verify it, and they’re in.

So I did some experimenting. Maybe the defederation hasn’t happened yet because I just commented on a post in beehaw’s technology community. I was also able to see beehaw posts in my search results and also requested to subscribe to one of their communities.

Heck, a troll could spin up their own Lemmy instance.
