Age can also be a bad thing when people making decisions aren’t mature enough to make a decision rationally instead of emotionally.
This swings both ways. Older people can be less effective at making decisions and younger people can also be less effective at making decisions. For different reasons.
There is a nice sweet spot in the middle from 30-60 where people tend to be pretty good at making decisions while also bridging generational and cultural gaps.
You’re also completely ignoring politics experience, Which is a real world requirement in order to actually get shit done. (Let’s not even talk about emotional maturity and making decisions purely on emotion instead of rationale)
If you are not mature enough to learn how to work well with others then you’re not going to get anything done because you require the contributions, help and cooperation of people you may disagree with in order to move your agenda forward. Especially on a world stage.
I’m not talking about old ass people in their 70s here. I’m talking about people 30-60. Who should be the ones in office in my opinion.
Older and younger than that and effectiveness seems to drop off pretty quickly.
Can’t wait to see you let your household be ran by a toddler if age means nothing to you.
You might think that’s an extreme example, but it highlights the same problem. Until you are fully mature (20-25) you tend to lack in areas that mature humans are capable. That’s the bar, that’s where the floor starts. Some people get there earlier than others. Some people get there later than others.
After that point comes tempering and experience. When your decisions can affect millions of other people, it’s expected that you have the experience, maturity and temperament to make good rational decisions without being overtaken by your emotions.
Younger people are more likely to be overtaken by their emotions and make irrational decisions. Maturity and experience is an expectation.
You’re not going to make a 15-year a UN secretary, or even a 22 year old, it doesn’t mean this person can’t start working their way there and gaining experience with that in mind.
She’ll get there. There’s still tempering to be done that comes with more experience and age which benefits and strengthens a political position.
I look forward to it.
But I wasn’t facility. I was a student.
The dorm itself did not have internet and had no plans of running ethernet or providing internet to students.
I got internet through a wireless access point, positioned very carefully in window for a WISP. And they distributed that to rooms near me.
It’s old magic too and in a pinch it works reasonably well.
We use this as a networking option for an old dorm I was in which didn’t have ethernet and the concrete walls between rooms made Wi-Fi unusable.
Blocks of rooms were not separated on different circuits which made this possible
Im not, and you can take your Reddit flavored conversation back there with you please!
Where instead of actually engaging in a topic, you instead resort to personal attacks, and then followup with something that doesn’t even address the original comment to begin with.
Begone with that bullshit.
What profit incentive is there for bots that don’t interact? (There are edge cases, scrapers and such, but that’s a minute amount of traffic for large services)
Bots in this context are a tool for manipulating opinions and facts for political gain, marketing, personal benefit, or some other social or economic benefit.
They cost money to operate and maintain, and generally need a clear benefit to be used at scale.
That said, bots have only gotten complex in their language capabilities over the last couple years.
My point still stands regardless, use pre -LLM numbers if you want, it doesn’t necessarily change the picture all that much.
Any only ~1% actually post.
Sooooo 0.5% are bots?
I love Lemmy, if we want it to survive and thrive we also need to be realistic with ourselves.
Should Reddit be scared? No, no they shouldn’t, laughably.
We’re talking about 0.01% of the active user base. Lemmy has ~ 40-50k mau, if we’re being incredibly conservative, Reddit has ~400 million MAU . Reddit gains about an entire Lemmy worth of new users, daily.
It’s a humbling number.
“Well it’s all bots” you say. Well… Given that ~ 1% of reddit users actually post, it would seem safe to assume that non-content posting users would not be bots. Which doesn’t really change the numbers much here.
That’s the point.
It’s a anyone that don’t want around. Label them antifa and now you can do everything the law allows with terrorists and worse.
Not exactly ideal archival software…
It doesn’t store files in a human readable way and requires a separate DB and application to interpret your stored data. Without controls over how it stores that data.
There’s a big difference between desktop environment needs and headless server needs.
Anything with user interaction will require an enormous number of additional services, which consumes resources.
I expect to run simple headless software on 256-512 MB of RAM. For example.
Worse. More like less than 0.0001% of the humans on the planet.

These are all holes in the Swiss cheese model.
Just because you and I cannot immediately consider ways of exploiting these vulnerabilities doesn’t mean they don’t exist or are not already in use (Including other endpoints of vulnerabilities not listed)
This is one of the biggest mindset gaps that exist in technology, which tends to result in a whole internet filled with exploitable services and devices. Which are more often than not used as proxies for crime or traffic, and not directly exploited.
Meaning that unless you have incredibly robust network traffic analysis, you won’t notice a thing.
There are so many sonarr and similar instances out there with minor vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild because of the same"Well, what can someone do with these vulnerabilities anyways" mindset. Turns out all it takes is a common deployment misconfiguration in several seedbox providers to turn it into an RCE, which wouldn’t have been possible if the vulnerability was patched.
Which is just holes in the swiss cheese model lining up. Something as simple as allowing an admin user access to their own password when they are logged in enables an entirely separate class of attacks. Excused because “If they’re already logged in, they know the password”. Well, not of there’s another vulnerability with authentication…
See how that works?
Please to see: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/5415
Someone doesn’t necessarily have to brute Force a login if they know about pre-existing vulnerabilities, that may be exploited in unexpected ways
Fail2ban isn’t going to help you when jellyfin has vulnerable endpoints that need no authentication at all.
Jellyfin has a whole host of unresolved and unmitigated security vulnerabilities that make exposing it to the internet. A pretty poor choice.
40… Is not old my friend. You do realize millennials are entering 40 right? The problem are the old fucks (60-80) that are stuck in their political power ways.
Ya know, a generation that largely supports everything you’re supporting.
30-60 is a great age range for both maturity, ability to navigate the landscape, and generationally relevant. It’s weird here because you’re preaching to the choir while also shitting on the choir…?
Side note: You seem to be assigning meaning to my words that I’m not providing. I’m not in support of old political figures who are stuck in their ways and refuse to drop power because of their corruption. I’m in support of getting people into these positions that can effectively enact change. And I believe the people that can effectively enact change are those that are able to navigate the landscape and bridge the gap that we currently have.
We both want the same thing but the difference seems to be rational versus (ironically) emotions.
