  • Well…

    If you follow the link to fedidb, refer to the “mau” monthly active users. Do some brief math and realize that lemmy.world accounts for about 50% of all active users

    Email market share is harder, but many estimate that Gmail accounts for over 40%. Many many orgs use Google apps to make custom branded gmails with their own domains too

    This is the typical “business power law” that states that the top player should control about 50%, the second player about 25%, etc. This is just kinda how the world works










  • Honestly hilarious level of QQ. The election wasn’t rigged. He won by almost 100 electoral college votes. He had the most popular votes, by 2.5 million people, roughly 50%. Republicans swept House, Senate, and Governors

    Elections in the USA are always pretty close, that’s how it works. But this victory is a complete and total one with no real room for doubt

    You may not like it, but those are the facts. Don’t mimic the sad boy GOP crying “election fraud” — the people voted. Yes, that means there are people in this country that disagree with you and don’t trust the direction of the Democrats. You might call them brainwashed, bigoted, transphobic, or religious extremists, but they get to voice their desires anyway. Society is a push and pull between different value systems, and imagining half the country is “evil” will only cause more harm

    Nothing is going to stop the transition. Buckle up, and try harder next time. Maybe the Dems will actually let a primary happen rather than choosing your leader for you









  • Well, the Internet is connected together using routers/switches. Your own home network is a “private internet” until you pay to connect it to the big one. So if you want, nothing is stopping you from running cables to your neighbors and hooking together. But then you won’t have access to anything useful except whatever servers you guys run

    Was that your question?


  • I think I need more info. It seems like userspace is very hackable, so thus kernel level anti-cheat was born to control stuff like synthetic inputs and manipulation of memory / frame analysis. This anti-cheat would be held together by the fact that the kernel/drivers are proprietary and not very easy to edit. Obviously still possible because it’s on your own computer, but challenging and invasive. Do I have that right?

    In which case I don’t see how going back to userspace would help. What is the solution? There probably isn’t one outside of hardware (buying a hacking chip and soldering it in is annoying for most)

    When I was doing game dev we focussed on AI-style analytics of user behavior. Of course a good enough bot could always look human. A real cat and mouse game wasting lots of time
