This is so strange to me. I hear stories like this all the time but I have hard time understanding who would not show up or not eat the food that was obviously for the party.

Did they know there would be food beforehand? Could they have eaten before because they thought there wouldn't be anything at the party? What about the other 2 people? Did they tell you they were not coming or did they say they were coming and then just didn't show up? Did they say why they didn't show up?

What is misleading about this? This is clearly just a personal opinion. Just because you don't agree doesn't mean it is misleading.

Its a good idea, but how would that work with federation? There is already an issue with the number of upvotes on a post differing between instances. Would polls have the same problem or no?

Edit: now that I think about it, polls are already a thing on Mastodon but I don't know if they have these issues or not.

A raccoon was behind the massive power outage that knocked out electricity to some 7,000 customers in downtown Toronto for hours Thursday night.

Hydro One said a raccoon “made contact with equipment” at a downtown station, which cut the lights for parts of the city. The raccoon's condition is currently unknown

Fucking gold

Om vi ska lägga till tecken kan vi väl rensa lite från denna knappen med. Den har tillräckligt med onödiga tecken.

Still funny tho. And you know people like this exist, they just don't say it this straightforward.

You are describing symmetric encryption where both parties have the same key. There is something called asymmetric encryption that solves this. Basically you have a public key and a private key. You can give your public key to youtube, they can use that key to encrypt the symmetric key that will be used for the actual communication. The only way to decrypt the symmetric key is by using your private key, which is only known to you. So youtube can safely send it to you so you can decrypt it. Now you both have the same key and nothing was sent unencrypted.

Well your public key was sent unencrypted but that's fine because of how asymmetric encryption works.

Oh so when a theraphist plays DnD at work it's fine but when I do it it's "slacking off" and "grounds for termination".

Not really. They are literally just following the law

I heard Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.world among others, but recently I have been seeing content from beehaw communities and users. Did they re-federate? If so, why? And if not, why am seeing updates from their servers again?
