Ca s’est même frayé un chemin sur la page spotify de Jul, incroyable
Au long terme, je crois qu’il y a aussi la peur de voir meta qui “embrace and extinguish” le fediverse/activitypub (article de ploum partagé 100 fois aujourd’hui sûrement) Je ne sais pas à quelle point c’est une inquiétude légitime, mais c’est vrai qu’en regardant ce qu’il s’est passé lorsqu’un géant “s’introduit” dans un système décentralisé et a autant de poids (en utilisateurs, mais aussi en moyens humains et monétaires) sur une norme (xmpp, activitypub, docx,…), je ne vois pas comment ca pourrait être mieux qu’un système où les deux cohabitent côte à côte.
Mais une différence par rapport à ces exemples qui a déjà été évoquée, c’est comment meta va s’en sortir pour modérer du contenu qui n’est pas “le sien”.
is there a writeup somewhere that ideally goes into enough detail to clearly understand how instances/federation work and what would really happen ? I hate Meta but I realize I have no clue what threads coming means and implies, decentralized systems are very unintuitive when you’re used to conventional social media.
right, this is quite evocative and what I initially had in mind, but the question seems to be more subtle? A village is a single centralized unit, here instances can defederate and users can block traffic. Will threads users invade the fediverse village or just not care about it, even if they have access? Could it give an opportunity for ppl to read content that will ever only be threads (political figures. institutions, etc.) without having a meta account and using a meta app? Will the bots that apparently plague threads rn will plague the fediverse? Why don’t they now? If some instances defederate and others not, could I have one account where I talk to the tourists, and another account in a defederated instance where I’m back in my calm village?
I agree with the imagery and moral aspects, but I feel like understanding the practical implications which are not obvious to me is important to gather momentum to kick them out - I felt like people disagree on subjects that they probably shouldn’t if they both had the same understanding of the situation (which includes me).
I’m guessing they don’t put forward any arguments related to their climate impact, but out of curiosity do we know how prioritizing passenger trains in the US impacts the way these goods are transported ? Is this a minor inconvenience for the industry that’s they’re fussing about and nothing would actually change, or would the goods have to significantly shift to truck transportation ?
I live in a country where there’s the opposite problem: we have a lot of passenger trains, but they’re attempting to revive freight trains because truck transportation is quite CO2 costly. Reduced emissions are definitely only one advantage amongst many for public trains, but I’m wondering how much you save/lose by replacing(?) one freight train passing with passenger train.
Est-ce que c’était le même cas pour le Japon ?
Concrètement, elle va désormais interdire l’exportation des « technologies d’extraction, de traitement et de fusion des terres rares », selon un long document publié jeudi par le ministère du Commerce. La nouvelle réglementation n’a toutefois pas de conséquences sur les exportations de produits à base de terres rares eux-mêmes. En revanche, elle pourrait contrarier les efforts de développement de ce secteur en dehors de Chine.
Si j’ai bien compris, on peut toujours acheter des minéraux raffinés ou non, et par contre il deviendra probablement encore moins rentable de développer des mines ou infrastructures de raffinage autre part qu’en Chine, donc ça semble assez malin de leur part non ?
Joyeux noël et bonne digestion à tous
I think in your case you’re definitely banning queerphobia/bigotry, which I hope most people agree is radically different from banning dissenting opinions.
Maybe the definition of an echo chamber should revolve more about what would be different if you weren’t in it? For example, I’d say I’m in a community that is an echo chamber if, when getting out of this community, I might change some of my views that previously seemed obvious. I hope that people in a queer community don’t start questioning their sexuality/worth once they’re outside of a queer friendly community - although after writing it out maybe some do :(
But then it’s not the same mechanics: if I come out of an echo chamber I might read up on some new evidence/arguments/opinions that challenge my thinking, while coming out of a queer friendly space is, as you’re saying, getting exposed to hateful comments and being weakened by these. It doesn’t seem right to say it’s an echo chamber, just like it doesn’t seem right to say there are “conspiracy-friendly” communities!
Less accurate analogy, but you get the idea: if you kill your pro boxer mugger, it’s self defence, but you’ll have committed murder. War crimes kind of define the minimum “moral standard” that can’t be crossed, even if you’re trying to define some sort of moral standard weighed by power. Seems a bit delusional to try and quantify stuff like this to me though.
