I want a P2P Social Media app; where the user controls the content.

Then you should look up Gab or Mastadon.

On Gab pro-users create the categories that take the place of "trending". They also promote free speech (even from SJWs, Black Supremacists, and Nazis (the latter two are redundant)).

On Mastadon you run or attach to a node and the federated node network can have different content policies. Mastadon is huge in Japan where a certain breed of pervert has found a place accepting of their content.

So I can totally run the PiP mode at 480p. Now I just need one of these on my phone....

No... now what you need is Verizon!

Here's a possible explanation of why nobody saw the other ship.

This isn't the middle ground. That's what people ended up protesting in Boston Commons. Insane communists indeed, with people wrapped in a media hysteria bubble.

Yeah, and look at the comparison chart and how well it compares to the competitors!

Oh, wait. Something off about the chart...

I think most people in Seattle are superstitious:

Cooper, one of the 20th century's most compelling masterminds, hijacked a Boeing 727 at Seattle-Tacoma airport in 1971

Jumped out of a plane, in a rain storm, in November, over a heavily wooded area, wearing no protective clothing, just an ordinary suit. Hardly a mastermind. I think this more correctly sums up the DB Cooper case.

Ironically, a cornerstone of the alt-left's ideology is that words they don't agree with are *violent.*

They use this term specifically so they feel justified in trying to murder people that disagree with them. They use this term so they can justify harassing, doxing, and oppressing people who disagree with them.

Because after all, those "White Lives Matter" guys and the tryhards pretending to be Nazis are being "violent" by existing, which means it's ok to try to murder them with homemade flamethrowers -- that's just self defense, right?

Pray the alt-right never get to the point where they agree, because if they do, this is going to escalate very, very quickly.

But fucking apps should not delete without a clear warning written clearly not just a "delete ABC ?"

Oblig: This is He-Man!

There is a lot of truth in your comment, even though it was intended tongue-in-cheek. Speaking as a gay male, this is extremely relevant in the gay male community. Many of us have internalized the He-Man ideal as much, if not more so, than the straight female community has internalized Barbie. It has led to quite a few neuroses, including body-dysmorphic syndromes such as bigorexia.
That said, no, I don't feel the article is appropriate for Slashdot.

Oblig: This is He-Man!

Yeah, I can't imagine how much time he's spending at the gym to get his calves that big.

BLM has never said anything of the sort.

You're right, they said far worse. Like saying all "white people are sub-human" I've heard that before...coming from black supremacists. Very uh...diverse, so progressive. Gee, they're just like Margaret Sanger and her belief that blacks were sub-human need to be culled, and the perfect way to do that was via planned parenthood. Never mind her pro-eugenics stance or anything...

Clinton was right then, and HAD CONSERVATIVES HEEDED HER WARNING we'd not be in the horrific situation of having a President who panders to, and gives power, to Neo-Nazis, and who is in probability one himself.

You didn't even listen to him when he blamed both sides for the violence did you. You're so heavily invested in identity politics that you're willing to swallow whatever bullshit is shoved down your throat. You also likely believe that antifa is really the good guys, and really aren't just racists on the left.

The madness doesn't end.

Of course it doesn't, and sometimes it actually get's worse. Like in this picture here(SFW). Just remember it the next time someone claims that antifa really aren't bad guys and they really are fighting fascists.

Ugly beliefs, ideologies, and ideas will die on the vine when heard by sensible people.

Ah, but what if that's the reason they're really so scared? What if the belief isn't ugly and it's just that all people deserve a nation of their own, and that all races have a right to exist? "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for our children" -- Any sensible person hearing such words would agree, and yet these are the infamous 14 words uttered by the "Nazi" 1488 crowd.

What if your views were tainted because of propaganda? Have you actually listened to what these people have to say? Do you know what identitarianism is? What if the real reason they're being persecuted is that the existing political establishment is fearful that if you hear what they have to say, you will agree. National Socialists believe in healthy "Darwinian" competition between separate nations; They don't seek to destroy any other nation, they just acknowledge that some races are better at different things and through barter and trade they can all take advantage of each other's gifts.

Note: Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews. No one would take them as refugees. Since some were carrying out terrorist acts he put them in camps and planned to establish a home for them in the island paradise of Madagascar. Unfortunately he didn't know about the Balfour Declaration which was a pact between Zionists and Great Brittan to establish Israel by using the war machine on Palestine. Which was one of the many reasons WWII was instigated. It had nothing to do with genocide of Jews, but the average person has only believed propaganda, ignoring that victors rewrite the history.

No one with an IQ above room temperature believes that black people, for example, are any less valuable

You're right. Not even Nazis believe that... but you wouldn't know because you've only heard media caricatures. P.S. Hitler would have round up and shot the racist Skinheads for being hateful degenerates.

But I thought they hated darkies

Nope, that's a myth.

They just think that all peoples deserve a nation that preserves their culture and looks out for their interests 1st rather than profit being god. The Swiss adopted National Socialism and called it the Swiss System. It worked great, and they're technically "Nazis", as that's a derisive slang for National Socialist.

The race war BS is war time propaganda, even allied forces now admit that black propaganda was crucial to winning the war. How else would you get German descended Americans to kill their brothers than to demonize them? Hint: Pre WWII Census showed there were only ~2 million Jews in all of what would become "Nazi" occupied Europe. Is the Red Cross a Nazi organization? Because the Red Cross's reports, sealed for 70 years, lists 271 thousand dead in German concentration camps, mostly due to starvation and the Typhus epidemic, which were rampant due to allied bombing of supply lines.

I suppose you think 9/11 was real too?

Last time I debated a Nazi they were trying to convince me that Hitler had Blacks and Jews and Arabs fighting for the 3rd Reich, among other things.

Their message was that, "Victors Rewrite The History, and this happened to WWII".

They told me that "Promoting your own culture does not mean you want to destroy all others."

It was like Nazism had become the new oppressed group and this guy fashioned himself as a civil rights activist like MLK.

Twilight Zone is Real.

Even SpaceX admits that for more distant missions (far outer planet destinations, oort cloud, etc), scaling chemical rockets is not sufficient.

Well, on the Falcon Heavy page they list payload to Pluto and escape velocity is only 0.39 km/s (0.03+0.02+0.11+0.20+0.03) more delta-v than that so anything inside the Sun's gravity well like the far outer planets is quite reachable by chemical. If you do ITS-style fueling in orbit or slingshot around Jupiter probably with a decent size payload too. The Oort cloud is a lot further out though, Voyager is at 139 AU and the lowest estimate for where it might begin is 2000 AU so like 500+ years even with all the gravity slingshots Voyager got. Since you won't get the same slingshot again until 2151 and the chemical propulsion is only a small part of Voyager's total speed I think you're looking at centuries even with a massive efficiency boost through fission.

If you collapse your tabs to the left hand side you get favicon to identify each tab. I think you are just not using tabs correctly. Grab the edge of the tab on the right hand side and push it to the left, it will collapse to a small square tab. Like this

In case you're curious, it's rare that most supercharger stations not in big cities will ever need 4 chargers at this point in time, with the number of EVs on the road. It's one of the things that to me continually demonstrates how Tesla understands the market while others' don't. If you just build a single charger somewhere, and someone gets there, and it's taken or broken.... then what? Bad luck, right? But Tesla makes sure that there's always multiple chargers at every site (constantly monitored), on different circuits, to prevent this. And V3 chargers are going to be battery buffered.

Another example (IMHO) of why I like Tesla is the quality of their engineering. Check the difference between a Tesla supercharger connector (right) vs. a socket for a CHAdeMO connector that delivers less than 40% as much power (left). They're constantly thinking of human factors. Likewise, the reason why they went with such high powers in the first place while everyone else was ignoring it. Companies like Nissan, etc look at EVs like a hair shirt for hippies. "So what if it takes a long time to charge on trips, they'll wait for it so they can save the planet, and think it's fine because they save so much time when not on trips." Same reason that they underpower the motors in their cars. Tesla's goal isn't hippies; their goal is the world.

I have no interest in a charging network. I'm not going to sit around all day, every couple of days charging my car.

You have a strange impression of what charging entails. Fast charging today is half an hour to 80%. Next generation chargers - higher power, and with offboard sources of chilled coolant rather than having cars cool themselves with ambient-temperature coolant - will bring this down. As will next-generation batteries, with higher ion mobility. And unless you drive great distances every day, it's not "every couple days". Even the shortest range Tesla is 220 miles highway range.
  More city range.

In any event electric cars cost way more than equivalent ICE cars

Not against others in their class. The Tesla Model 3, for example, is designed to compete with the BMW 3-series and similar. Comparing base models, it's faster, more agile, more passenger room, more storage room, more standard features (bringing the 3-Series up to the standard features of the Model 3 requires thousands of dollars of options), and cheaper, without accounting for tax credits and the money saved on maintenance and fuel. And it's received rave reviews from virtually every journalist that test drove it thusfar.

They're not targeting a Yaris, they're targeting BMW, Audi and Mercedes. Toyota, Honda, etc are also on their hitlist, but several years down the road (Model 3 is a midrange sedan, while the next release will be Model Y, a midrange crossover, and a Tesla semi. After that they're looking at a pickup, a low-end sedan, and a second generation Roadster)

your electricity bill will cost way more

Driving an EV is vastly cheaper than driving a gasoline car. Do the math yourself - the Model S charges at about 1/4 kWh per highway mile (less per city mile). It of course depends on your local gas and electricity prices; even where electricity is expensive and gas is cheap, it's cheaper to drive an EV; in places where I am where electricity is average priced but gasoline very expensive, it costs 1/10th as much to drive an EV.

and you'll be stuck needing to buy batteries (or new car) much sooner than you'd need to replace major components on an ICE.

Tesla Model 3 has a 8 year / 100k (or 120k for the long-range) mile warranty on the battery pack. Model S and X have the same 8 years but unlimited mileage. And for the record, the batteries don't just die - the rate of degradation slows over time.

When there is a breakthrough new battery technology

Not needed - the future is now. Heck, even the old weight canard is gone - a Tesla Model 3 weighs approximately the same as a BMW 3-Series.

You're not looking very far, then.

DSL, this isn't surprising. A location near me:

No, I read what Pottering said. But time and time and time again his actual knowledge of how things work is completely wrong (See the rm -rf /foo/.*).

Systemd is turning out to be the Theranos of Linux with Pottering at the helm sounding more and more like Elizabeth Holmes every day. It's like he makes it up as he goes.

There's a cure for that...

That's why!

Wild animals use a wide array of vocalizations. Animals raised by humans have a rather limited repertoire. I have a hard time believing any device could extract much more information from a bark or growl or meow or hiss than our own ears.

We've had people walking along train tracks while hunting Pokemon. (The sign reads: "Sprinter to Hoofddorp is cancelled due to a Snorlax on the tracks"). After the railroad complained, Niantic did adjust their servers to exclude railroads, highways, major industrial areas and military installations.

Why take internet and platforms on it such as social media so seriously ?...There's only one life that matters, and it's called Real Life.

The internet is part of reality. The internet is real life.

Social media is a serious medium of social interaction. People well-established in their careers and already married can possibly ignore it, but for anyone younger you need to have a social media presence to get a job and have good romantic prospects.

Social media is how people network. Social media is how people build and retain contacts. Social media is how people get jobs. HR people have been saying for years that not having a Facebook account is a mark against you. That story is from 2012. The importance of social media has only gone up since then.

Although the majority of people that use linkedin exclusively for their job searches do not come up successful, the MO for hiring managers makes it so that if you are not on linkedin, you are invisible. People find eachother on social networks. They might not use those platforms for contact or hiring decisions, but if you don't have a presence at all, your odds of being hired tanks very hard.

And these points don't even begin to cover the social pariah you make yourself out to be if you do not participate. Many people that do not have a Facebook account have stories of missing out on family news, social experiences, invites to events, and more. Your dating options dwindle down to less than your tiny circle of contacts if you are not participating. What do potential partners do before they willingly go on a date? Check a person's profiles and see if they are creepers, interesting, or have unnecessary drama in their lives.

Why take internet and platforms on it so seriously? Because they are real life. Society moves on. Once you could get by without a telephone. For many years you could get by without internet. For a few years social media was no big deal, something teenagers foolishly post their entire lives to. Today, the internet and social media is a big part of your identity, your career, your dating prospects; your reputation in the world exists online.

Technology improves and changes. Society changes too.
