How search engines treat IPV6 only websites? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

This guy is talking about dual-stack, and I was talking on IPV6 only, when your site is unavailable for someone that doesn't have an IPV6 connection

How search engines treat IPV6 only websites? (lemmy.fbmac.net)
 

I wonder how bad search engines would penalize an IPV6 only site, is there any information on it?

fraud charges for anyone claiming it to be non fiction and censorship similar to what porn gets for religious media

I'd like a single atheist state where Palestine and Israeli have equal rights but religion is strictly outlawed. But I wouldn't kill people to achieve that, so I think my endgame isn't gonna happen

YSK: When you want to learn the facts on a controversial topic, check Wikipedia in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (4 children)

No, I didn't anticipate significant backslash. The criticism of Wikipedia is valid, but I'm comparing it to the raw stream of BS I get on social media, not to an idealistic vision of what wikipedia should be

YSK: When you want to learn the facts on a controversial topic, check Wikipedia (lemmy.fbmac.net)
 

When there is a heated, with a lot of strong and exaggerated arguments on both sides, and I don't know what to believe, or I'm overwhelmed with the raw information, I look at Wikipedia. Or even something that is not a current event, but the information I found on the internet doesn't feel reliable.

I'm sure some would find flaws there, but they do a good job of keeping it neutral and sticking to verifiable facts.

What can we do, as lemmy users, to fight fake news being pushed in the platform? in c/[email protected]

When I want to read something relatively well verified and unbiased I reach for Wikipedia. They are doing a better job than any other source I found on the internet so far on keeping things clear of BS

If you could ask one question and get a 100% true answer, what would it be and why? in c/[email protected]

consciousness is just an illusion. the only hard problem is people trying to make reality fit into their beliefs instead of the other way around

Finland has no private schools – and its pupils perform better than British children in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The trade-offs probably aren't the same for developed and 3rd world countries. I want the free public schools to be as good as they can and have the private ones too

Do you need a better solution to a problem to criticise obvious flaws in someone else's solution? in c/[email protected]

you need to at least be able to explain what is wrong. a "this is bad" criticism is just frustrating

Why did the metaverse die? Because Silicon Valley doesn’t understand the concept of fun in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I don't think it was ever born to have died. I think they grossly overestimated how much this tech would improve

Could a "login with lemmy" replace all the login with Google/Facebook we see everywhere? (lemmy.fbmac.net)
 

I love the convenience of not having to create a password everywhere I need to be authenticated. It would be interesting to be able to use lemmy instead of feeding more information to these big corporations.

Suggestion: Ask doctors you know that give affordable remote consultation internationally to put their contact on this group (lemmy.fbmac.net)

I read a lot of people on reddit's r/adhd were they suffer with ADHD (or something similar, as they aren't diagnosed) but can't afford it. I read one that said they spend over US$ 1000 and had to stop looking because of the price.

I'm Brazilian, on the Brazilian private care, I was paying around 60USD for 1h talking to a doctor. A doctor that is fluent in English will probably charge more to treat international patients.

My full diagnose took around 10 visits, so it wasn't super cheap in comparison, but it was very through. I can share a translated version of the report I got on private message if anyone is curious.
