I’m too stupid to figure out the scale between that pole and the earth, so I did this instead:

• Let us say that we have a standard globe and it has been attached to its stand from the south and north poles, so that you can spin it around on the stand

• Let us assume that the “pole” attached to the globe is 2cm in diameter and that the scale of the globe is 1:42M

• With this, it would mean that a 2cm “pole” on a globe would in real life correspond to a pole that is 840 kilometers in diameter.

Needless to say, that pole would be fucking massive either way.

Oh my God, thanks for the heads up! As a European, I would most definitely want to avoid visiting these sites, as I obviously respect copyright law to its full extent! Now I can add them to my (block) list!

Well they can plan it if they want to, but I’m sure many instances will just end up blocking them and there isn’t anything they can do about it. But on the other hand, having such a large backing is making things much easier for Threads.

Isn’t the file limit 25MB these days? And yeah, I remember Skype having no limit on that but I also remember it taking an eternity and a half to transfer some of those files.

Kbin has been my go-to since migrating, I hope it continues on this trajectory. He is doing a great job!

I swear it hit 2M last year as well, people just stopped using it.

Ok maybe its just me being out of touch with the Finnish scene, but I seriously and I mean SERIOUSLY doubt that 40% of the content pirated here is Finnish content. Could, again, be me just not giving a damn about Finnish shows/movies personally, but I don’t even know where I’d go looking for those downloads. But just looking at the sheer amount of content that’s available in English and other languages vs Finnish content, they are in essence saying that almost all Finnish shows are pirated then, because otherwise you’re not getting anywhere close to 40% of that content being pirated. Unless they think that without piracy ALL of those people would be watching it legally, then maybe you’d get somewhere north of 20%. But even with just Finnish content, the fact is that you’d have to subscribe, I think to at least two (MTV Katsomo+ that is 13€ per month so you don’t get ads (which yes, means that there is 7€ paid tier WITH ADS…) and Ruutu+ (that is also 13€ per month, 8€ per month WITH ADS…) and that’s on top of, say Netflix. I just don’t think that without piracy those 40% would actually pay for those services, just don’t see it happening. I think they are way off with their numbers and are delusional in thinking that Finnish content would have such a big draw. I doubt it does.

Just make sure anything you order is either “fulfilled by Amazon” or “Ships from Amazon” and you should avoid that. I personally don’t order anything that isn’t shipped by Amazon (either through fulfillment or otherwise).

Its not out yet, but the Sync for Reddit dev is making Sync For Lemmy, so that should be worth checking out in the future.

Shit like this is why I switched to OpenOffice and then LibreOffice all those years ago. LibreOffice is just as good for my personal purposes and I’m never going back to MS Office. Unless your work specifically requires something only Microsoft’s product can do, I highly recommend LibreOffice, I use it every single day.
