Totally possible and something you can do already with digital ID. Checkout RealMe in New Zealand: https://www.govt.nz/browse/passports-citizenship-and-identity/proving-and-protecting-your-identity/use-realme-to-prove-your-identity-online/

A big issue is that many countries are a decade behind in implementing this system. They’re effectively asking the liquor store to check customers are 18, without government ID existing. So now the private sector is creating ID solutions to avoid legal liability. It’s a real mess.

Freedom - https://freedom.to/

A very powerful cross platform website/app blocker with a lifetime membership option. Works well for blocking multiple fediverse domains.

That and space, think of the cost of having an extra room in the house for all that stuff.

Are there any places where there are concreted in normal chess board? With all the nice re-imagining of public space going on right now, we have ping-pong tables, seems like there should be a chess spot.

Is there a spot in Montreal that has a regular gathering of guys playing chess? You know that classic New York scene where you can show up and play some games.

It doesn’t store media forever that is routinely cleaned and configurable in the administration settings for the instance. The content cache, which is database storage used for the text and meta-data of posts is more typically an issue over time because this requires commands to be run on the server to free up space, which many people do not do. https://fedihost.co/blog/slug/managing-mastodon-storage

I'm a person who doesn't like private ownership of housing much, and personally wants to see co-ops as the predominant form of housing... But: Fuck these think tanks like IRIS, adding net new housing units helps as studied by actual academics in published in academic journals
Social housing is great, private housing, co-ops housing, housing is great. Choose your preferred one and then support making it easier to build more. Attacking the other types? You're drinking economic ivermectin if you think housing supply doesn't help reduce the overall price of housing. We're way too deep into a housing crisis, short literally millions of units, and instead of pushing for (say) automated upzoning on sites with non-market units to increase supply these guys are firing off blog posts which will be used by NIMBYS to undermine housing developments across the city.

Good ideas for something like a "10 tips" video or something to help people up their game.

Good tip, I'll keep chipping away at this and then make a video.

 

I've been working on a guide to getting started on Lemmy. What do you think I should add?
