The modern internet, driven by corporate mandates, is rather complex. A browser needs to (at least):

  • transmit and receive several protocols, usually HTTP/IP (ipv4, ipv6, http2, SSL/tsl for security, sometimes also ftp, gopher, torrents, etc)
  • parse HTML documents and render them correctly to screen
  • parse user input to forms
  • parse CSS, correctly apply and cascade all the rules to the HTML element
  • include a full, performant VM to run ECMAScript in, manipulate the rendered document tree according to those scripts
  • include APIs required by ECMAScript covering the DOM, windowing, network requests, screen readers and other accessibility options
  • render and work on at least 3 major desktop OS flavors and 2 mobile ones, across countless versions
  • play media: images, audio, and video
  • DRM handling for media
  • Handle rendering of text in any world language

And that's just the tip of the iceberg! I've come around to the idea that the modern internet is actually, to be technical here, totally fucked. Big Tech is going to keep pushing users deeper into walled proprietary gardens. They've already made the open internet so complex and heavy that it requires a multimillion dollar company (dependent on Google's allowance or massive ad dollars) to create a browser for it.

I think the only solution is to throw it all away and start over. Twitter and reddit aren't being "saved" by the "resistance" users. The concept of free and open exchange of ideas on the net is being saved by new protocols and services that are built to resist corporate ownership, like Gemini and the Fediverse.

It's going to be hard weening off the flashy, ad driven Web, but its the only way. Go download Lagrange and start browsing Gemini space. If you weren't around for the 90s era of GameFAQs and the mostly-text web driven by individual writers and hosts, then here's your chance to go back to a better way of doing things.

We can't "fix" an internet that's owned by Big Tech, we need new spaces owned by the people using them.

It's amazing how much still gets through, but at least I'm not scrolling past a dozen "news" stories between every meme or comic post.

Kick ass! I liked both of them (and I've been noticing @fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com posting around, being a generally cool poster). I continue to feel extremely validated in choosing to join this instance: cool people, strong values, and wise leadership. Thanks for all y'all do!

Well, I just found out that manatee mammaries are located in their armpits, so I think we're going to need to pull up the drawing board on this one. Seems like mermaids need a total do over!

Are we truly conscious, or do we just learn to imitate a pale simulation of the mushroom's true understanding of reality?

It is fun to gamble a little now and then. I bought about $10 in nvidia stock (like 8% of a share lol) this morning and managed to nail the lowest point today so far. Is it thrilling to watch my $10 become $10.66 as the market possibly recovers? Yes, it's great!

Will I be sad if the market suddenly collapses and my "investment" is only worth $5? or $0? No, because I had fun on the ride (and maybe it'll go back up later, who knows).

Never gamble with what you can't afford to lose.

Trick-pissing champ here, the real homies bank their shots off the shower walls first before swirling it around the bowl for the finale. If I've been drinking heavily the night before, I'll piss fakey or throw in some yoga poses to up the challenge. The only way to be great is to push yourself a little farther each time you step up to the bowl.

Technically, floating point also imitates irrational and whole numbers as well. Not all numbers though, you'd need a more uhm... elaborate structure to represent complex numbers, surreal numbers, vectors, matrices, and so on.
