These are all really good answers, but yours really nailed it for me. Such a fascinating development and change in infrastructure. Thank you for such a well thought out and informed reply.

Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow One of the greatest albums of all time. If you like Dilla and DOOM that’s the only logical choice.

Same. The OP article is interesting, but was hoping for more than a few wiki links of past instances. Is there more verifiable evidence for this instance? Don’t doubt the claim, just curious.

Would be helpful to compare fleet sizes, how many accidents per total flights. Total accidents doesn’t mean much without a comparison of either those stats.

Can we stop calling them settlers, they are invaders.

Absolutely agree. I’d argue Blazing Arrow by Blackalicious is one of the greatest albums of all time. And that came out in 2002, eight years after Illmatic. Blazing Arrow is such a seamless and well thought out album from start to finish. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blazing_Arrow

It takes maybe six months of skipping tracks

Lol, I look forward to good results by the end of the year? Maybe not the best algorithm after all.

I personally don’t have one particular way of discovering new music. It’s a mix of suggestions from different apps or friends. Shazam during movies and TV also helps guide some discoveries. Also just clicking through a rabbit hole of suggestions and marking stuff you like for future digging.

Maybe mention and link to the community so the appropriate people can do more than guess at what you even want?

Thanks, haven’t seen that abbreviation before

What does fta mean?

I still think this is the biggest issue with lemmy right now. There should be a way for communities that are identical across instances that can connect where a post would be cross posted and connected with links to each instance it’s connected with.

The article mentions “Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment”. https://www.alliance4creativity.com/

Looks like a group that takes down piracy websites.

I assume MPA refers to “The Motion Picture Association”. They keep changing their name: “The MPA, originally called the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) and later the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA)”, then abbreviated to MPA.

Just clarifying the abbreviations since it isn’t really explained/articulated in the article.

A bit misleading but yes, 1000km is what they are talking about. Also the article doesn’t address scalability.

Voyager is very similar to RIF. I’d recommend it highly.

Gift of Gab / Blackalicious has always stayed positive and even have songs about coming up and having to change/adapt. Check 'em out!

Very cool! Keep up the hard work, we appreciate it!

Deep rock galactic looks like a fun game. I have several friends who play it but haven’t had the opportunity to pick it up yet.

Sure, but I feel like there is still fluctuation and more often than not a varying degree of activity and posts that it makes it hard to stick to just one (identical) community for now. I’m sure it’ll settle over time though.

That’s pretty cool, I haven’t tried out Kbin yet, might have to check it out!

Same, on many topics. How would I know which community will have the most activity, or none at all. It’s my biggest issue here. Not a deal breaker, but annoying.
