You always see this opinion on reddit and lemmy that corporate greed is the root of all evil in a vacuum.

It feels good cause it removes any guilt from the individual, but at the end of the day corporation provides good and service to the society. If people stopped using AI, eating meat, wanting SUV etc, corporation would turn to others products.

I am french and may first is a public holiday, but I'm ashamed that I didn't know from where it came.. Thanks for the write up!

Which app do you use please?

[-] Mycroft@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

Good to know, thanks!

The "repeat" option that activates itself is probably the most frustrating bug. I can't recall the last time I legitimately wanted to listen to a song on repeat but it enable itself very often.

If I could simply remove the feature I would.

I opened the app without thinking right now, and to my surprise it's working.

I mod an empty subreddit, which made it work before. It didn't load yesterday, and tonight it does without any changes on my side.

I was almost happy to get rid of reddit, but it's seems it is not for today.

I agree that being critical is easy and I should be "the change I want to see in the world".

Thanks for creating Lemmy content in good faith.

This was an engagement bait question on Reddit that was frequently posted. It seems so far Lemmy is overwhelmingly in favor just like reddit probably as the population is not old (I'm not either).

I don't know how I feel about it as the constant repost and bait question were something I disliked on Reddit.

I think it originally comes from a native American saying.

The repulsive force is electromagnetism while the attractive force is an exchange of mesons between the atoms.

It is different forces with different ways of interacting on objects.

This is the chatGPT answer I'm basing my answer on:

"The concept of a force being both stronger and short-range might seem counterintuitive at first, but it's a fundamental aspect of how forces operate in the quantum world, particularly within the nucleus of an atom. The force being referred to here is the strong nuclear force, also known as the strong force or strong interaction, which is one of the four fundamental forces in physics.

The strong nuclear force is indeed much stronger than electromagnetism (the force that repels positively charged protons from each other) but it operates over a very short range. Here's a more detailed explanation:

  1. Strength: The strong force is the strongest of the four fundamental forces. Its strength ensures that it can overcome the electromagnetic repulsion between protons within the nucleus. Without the strong force, the protons would repel each other and the nucleus would disintegrate.

  2. Range: The strong force only acts over very short distances, approximately 1 femtometer (1 fm, or (10^{-15}) meters), which is roughly the diameter of a large nucleus. Beyond this range, the force drops off very rapidly, becoming negligible compared to electromagnetic forces. This is why atomic nuclei can be stable: within the nucleus, the strong force is dominant and keeps the protons and neutrons together; outside the nucleus, its influence is minimal, so atoms do not "stick" to each other due to the strong force.

The short-range nature of the strong force is due to the mechanism by which it operates, involving the exchange of particles called mesons between nucleons (protons and neutrons). This particle exchange can be thought of as the "glue" that holds the nucleus together, but this "glue" only works over very short distances.

To understand how a force can be both stronger and short-range, it's helpful to compare it with gravity, which is much weaker but has an infinite range. Gravity affects objects no matter how far apart they are, although its effect diminishes with distance. In contrast, the strong force has a much greater effect but only over a very short range. This difference in behavior is due to the different properties and mechanisms governing these forces. "

Hope this helps, it is not really my domain so maybe someone can ELI5 better for us !

They don't, Linux players have to use wine. And it will be impossible afaik to play lol on Linux once vanguard is added.

As someone else said, there is no plan to add vanguard on macs

Hello,

I've been using boost for Reddit for years and I am now using boost for lemmy.

I'm very happy so far, there is just one thing I haven't found a way to do : browse the communities on a lemmy instance. Let's say I want to discover every community on lemm.ee, how would I do using the boost app?

Ideally I'd like to be able click the @instance part in community@instance to browse the instance.

Thanks you all
