I guess everyone just browses all anyway, for now. So they don’t want things removed that have comments regardless of where it’s posted.

Yea I've seen this as well. I think part of the problem is a lack of an automod, since rule breaking content sticks around for hours accumulating comments before a mod sees it. Users are good about reporting spam, since it's very obvious, but not everyone is familiar enough with community rules to report based on those.

From the comments of the article

Deleting it and re-installing from the new uncompromised release is not a big deal, but having to go and factory reset all one’s streaming devices and re-configure them from scratch is rather time consuming (I have several).

In yuliskov’s github announcement, he doesn’t come across as this being particularly urgent, and is NOT making statements like “reset all your devices, change all your streaming account passwords”. He just said going forward there won’t be updates and it will have to be re-installed from the new tree.

It seems at this point for most people, if google and amazon haven’t uninstalled it and you are not running 30.43 or 30.47, then keep using it, and when the new version is released, remove the old one and install the new one.

Factory resetting is likely overkill. Android apps are, theoretically, sandboxed, so they shouldn’t be able to affect the system or other apps. Uninstalling the infected app should be enough to clean up, but a factory reset is a guaranteed way, which is why I mention it.

It seems to be one person that's doing it manually across a number of communities?

I think the website is old, and the blurry bits were a prediction

The new cycle is expected to start late in 2019 or in 2020, with solar maximum to be reached between 2023 and 2026 and the maximum (smoothed) sunspot number in the 95 to 130 range.

A different color and a legend would have been nicer imo

I wonder if it was even possible for the pilots to intervene, or if the system was interpreting any signal from them as "pitch down" during that time

Nice thank you, this one has the details I was curious about

In a service difficulty report submitted to the FAA the operator stated, that the Elevator Aileron Computer #2 (ELAC2) was identified faulty causing an uncommanded pitch down in cruise flight, the autopilot remained engaged

On Nov 7th 2025 the NTSB reported: "During cruise, the aircraft experienced an uncontrolled descent for approximately 4-5 seconds before the autopilot corrected the trajectory. This likely occurred during an ELAC switch change." The occurrence caused 10 injuries on board, the NTSB opened an investigation.

The subsequent investigation identified a vulnerability with the ELAC B hardware fitted with software L104 in case of exposure to solar flares.

This identified vulnerability could lead in the worst case scenario to an uncommanded elevator movement that may result in exceeding the aircraft structural capability.

Appreciate the write-up, thanks!

I found this diagram, and this should mean that the levels will drop by around 2030?

Yes, this is because of the recent Technology Connections video

That title might be the best effort I can pull off.

Adjective-Noun-# is the usual format for those. This looks different, like someone put in a list of wholesome / floral / nature-y terms into the name generator, in order to have wholesome looking accounts

Maybe a separate category above?

That way users can choose which ones to show or collapse. Some people prefer a minimalist experience, and others might want to see everything at once 😄

I don't think it's possible in the default UI, without using some browser extension or user script.

Have you tried one of our other frontends? They have some nice usability features that you might like, and some of them seem to remember which menus you minimized.

In photon.lemmy.ca:

In blorp.lemmy.ca:

Blorp also has the 'recent' menu, which might be another way to do what you're trying to do

They must have been editing the article back and forth. I also only saw "WebRender Layer Compositor", but it's organized nicely now

IMO vaccine and evolutionary biology is very nuanced, and depends a lot on the individual genetics, type of pathogen, type of vaccine, etc. The net result from people dying off might be moot, and could even be harmful.

Immune science is often taught as an arms race, but that model tends to imply that both sides are constantly gaining beneficial traits. That's true in some cases, like the fever response, which is a beneficial trait we gained at some point, and it continues to be useful.

Meanwhile, other phenotypes are very context dependent for whether they are helpful or harmful. HLA (human leukocyte antigen) for example, that's how our T-cells identify between 'self' and 'foreign' particles. We rely on the tremendous diversity of HLA alleles in the human population in order to survive new diseases. Someone's HLA alleles can be a poor match for a current disease, but very helpful for a future disease. Having them die off now would be a bad thing. Similarly, someone with an HLA combination that makes them more effective against a current disease, may be ineffective against a future disease. Another simpler one is the ABO blood types, where different pathogens (ex. malaria, cholera, smallpox) are better/worse at infecting cells with certain blood types, evidenced by the different proportions of blood types in regions endemic to such diseases.

Evolution is messy, and the evolution of the immune system is messier still. Even if we only look at it from a simplified Darwinian evolution perspective, having genetic diversity might be more important than any shedding of 'weaker' alleles from people dying off because their natural immunity couldn't handle a particular infection.

I think you replied to the wrong comment

This channel is amazing. It's accessible enough for me to send to friends outside of tech, and it ramps up in a way that you can watch only as much as you need to

Does anyone have recommendations on which organizations to donate to? The article mentioned some which I intend to look into

You mentioned being frustrated at Plausible. What did you not like about it?

I haven't tried Plausible, but it seemed popular

Sounds like they joined a large group chat as a member

The FBI, the documents show, gained access to conversations in a “courtwatch” Signal group that helps coordinate volunteer activists who monitor public proceedings at three New York federal immigration courts. The US government has repeatedly been accused of violating immigrants’ due process rights at those courts.

Cool!

I'll be honest, I didn't recognize the mascot and thought you were a t-shirt selling spammer at first 😄 I'm glad to have been wrong, it's nice!
