Archaeologists from the University of Exeter have used laser scans to reveal a Roman road network that spanned Devon and Cornwall.

 

The diversity of family systems in prehistoric societies has always fascinated scientists. A groundbreaking study by anthropologists and archaeologists now provides new insights into the origins and genetic structure of prehistoric family communities.

 
 

A study proposes that the population that gave rise to modern humans may have been reduced to roughly 1,300 reproducing individuals

If you’d still like to delete you can dm Ernest and he’ll sort it out. There’s a known processing backlog.

+1!

Newer uses of the fediverse also don’t realise yet that Lemmy is older then Kbin, years older. Kbin has only really publically existed for a couple months.

I was here before any surge when there were about 200 users and Ernest followed everyone MySpace Tom style. It’s damn impressive how the site held up even when he had to introduce cloudflare protection temporarily. It was slow, but never crashed completely.

Some Lemmy instances did go down for a bit, even the bigger ones that didn’t had more synchronising issues then Kbin. I’m not trying to knock Lemmy by any means, but I think this goes to show that Kbin is alright if at a few months old, it can keep up with software that’s been around for several years at this point.

Kbin has only existed publicly for a little over two months.

Lemmy has been around for four years.

It’s rather significant imo that Kbin is on par functionally with Lemmy, and Kbin.social has higher active user counts then all but a few Lemmy instances. Kbin seems to solve issues faster as well in the several weeks I’ve been here anyway.

I agree, I have no idea how much karma I had on my account and I never looked or paid attention.

I’ve never been sure if all the chatter about it is people actually caring, or if it was always mostly a joke.

@atocci

I think the issue is that they don’t seem to be generating for links right now. I mod a few magazines and it seems true regardless of the URL source. Presumably this is why less show up on your feed.

Sounds like Ernest is working on this aspect of the site right now.

Agreed, I think you’re still conflating things I never said. Nothing was in the “let the people decide” vein.

Thats why I think it’s better to silently remove them rather then making posts saying “look at this bad guy right there”.

Ooo thanks for the heads up. I was somehow unaware it was part of his spiders web.

I believe that discussion occurred this year, but wasn’t on the legislative agenda. What did happen already was passed last year, the mill rate for vehicles was capped at 32 and change.

I’m actually hoping that at some point we may have an automatic translation for content not in our chosen language. The way Mastodon does. I want to understand what the threads and comments in other languages are saying! I feel like it broadens understanding.

Everything you’re talking is perception, friend. You chose to take my comment that way. The dev tools were being worked on long before this post.

As I said before, I’m not making this up, the phenomenon is studied and the effect is proven.

I legitimately wish I thought of this sooner. Also would help if I had a company to apply with lol. It seems like there was literally nothing stopping this from happening if someone thought of it/was willing to take the risk.
