In Australia we have 95% vaccination rates and we haven’t had quarantine, testing etc rules in place for like 2+ years now. Everything is fine.
The US is sitting at around 80% vaccination rate. Therein lies the problem.
So, not so much “humans” as “some humans”.
Yes MBFC is Extremely American in its definitions of left and right. A less US-centric rating would be much preferred.
I generally like the idea otherwise.
You’re thinking of Intel vPro. I imagine some of the Crowdstrike victims customers have this and a bunch of poor level 1 techs are slowly griding their way through every workstation on their networks. But yeah, OP is deluded and/or very inexperienced if they think this could have been mitigated on workstations through some magical “hygiene”.
I asked how the circumstances are similar, not vague descriptions that suit your existing views. But sure.
XMPP was dogshit back in 2004. A good idea, but nowhere NEAR what it needed to be to actually get mainstream acceptance. ActivityPub is light years ahead.
There were very very few XMPP users in 2004. There are millions of ActivityPub users. If meta was to pull the plug on federation it wouldn’t kill ActivityPub, there would still be millions of us here. We joined Lemmy/Kbin/Mastodon because we don’t want to live in a centrally controlled/owned social platform. That won’t change just because we can suddenly interact with Threads users. In fact, if anything, once Threads users hear that we get the same shit they do without the ads, they might decide to join us instead.
Google killing off XMPP integration didn’t kill XMPP. It did that all on its own.
The Ploum article again. Please explain how the circumstances with XMPP and ActivityPub are remotely similar.
