I know someone who’s literally making that right now. Remind me in a week, I’ll send you the link. He’ll probably be done by then.

maintaining democracy

What definition of democracy are we using here? Just so we’re on the same page.

I do not think trump was making a meaningful change on that level, in any case. The US never had a true people’s rule it that’s what you mean, for trump to take it away.

Gaza is not the only issue.

they are also clearly not a Biden supporter. They do not support either candidate, so the two options should be treated equally.

For XMPP, have you looked into using snikket? It does most things you’d want out of the box without having to setup extensions yourself.

Here is a docker compose: https://snikket.org/service/resources/docker-compose.yml

You only two configuration options in the config file: domain and email.

I’ve been wanting to do this exact thing. I already have wireguard setup. Please update us if you do this.

This makes matrix even less attractive to me lol. But you’re right, that’s a very good point.

cumbersome to parse

Parsers have already existed for so long in every major language. Why need to worry about parsing?

And why need to worry about transports working differently if they achieve the same thing? They seem similarly convenient if I understood what you said correctly

Why is JSON better than XML? It’s more modern, sure, but from technical perspective it is not objectively better right? Not something worth switching protocols for.

You mention XMPP has transports as opposed to Matrix bridges. I thought they give you roughly the same outcome. What’s the difference?

From a quick look into XMPP’s clients for android, they seem nice and some have modern features too.

Is there any technical limitation that would prevent xmpp client from having a WhatsApp-like UI?? WhatsApp started out with XMPP and probably still uses a variant of it. If anything, I’d imagine its harder with matrix given the complexity of the protocol.

Makes sense, but to me newness alone is not a benefit. In fact, it is a bit of a disadvantage. XMPP has more clients for example, and they are more mature.

You’re correct that inflation is the devaluation of money. The value of a unit of money is represented by what that unit can buy, so the person you replied to is also correct. This is why the most used indicators of inflation are measures of buying power.

If my money is devalued, it means that when I was able to buy 1 gallon of milk, I can now only buy 3/4ths a gallon with the same amount.

So while you’re correct in your over simplified example that inflation can be caused by the growth in “pool of money”, as you alluded, it is not that simple and its not the only cause. Moreover, inflation still manifests itself in the form of prices increasing. If pool of money grows, but prices remain the same, there’s no inflation.

This does not necessitate a “canal of businessmen” conspiring.

Why b-1 instead of just b votes? “because the vote could’ve otherwise went to B” well it could’ve also went to T, but I don’t see you accounting for it as t-1.

This math has a double standard.

Been using them for over a year now. I’m not a proud or loyal customer, but it’s a very generous free tier and I haven’t regretted it.

My speculation is that their main goal was to thwart the teams potential efforts emulating the next Nintendo console. It is likely going to be close enough to the switch that the same team will have an easy time emulating it. Not anymore.

Not just the pricing, but also the low footprint, tiny size and fanlessness.

Be careful that sometimes these providers will shut you down for hosting media servers. Even if your content is not illegally obtained.

I’ve only had this problem playing the video on TV directly. Like smart TV. Can I put VLC on there?

I use jellyfin to do transcoding, but very occasionally it exhibits issues still.

Red one gives you both. Literally. Just buy Bitcoin or something.
