    the fediverse is too complex to free people from centralized stuff

    Not really, people understood email just fine, and fediverse isn’t that different. The problem is there’s a major subtle push to make anything open source look way more complex than it is. It’s basically an open secret that microsoft did this with linux, and I’d be shocked if social media companies aren’t doing the same.

    it’s extremely biased towards leftism

    That’s inevitable. Anything foss will appeal far more to the anti corporate/ anti capitalist leftist people.


  • Or we use binary to write all bases, since binary is the simplest. So English uses base 1010, and the alien is using base 100.

    This system does break down when trying to use a base that isn’t a positive integer. I’ve heard of people trying to use base e (yes, as in euler’s number) for maths research.








  • On their own, there’s usually no timeout condition for async functions like this. The task (I don’t know what they’re called in gdscript, I use c#) will just hang until it completes, errors, or is canceled.

    There are cases when you can run into timeouts, such as sending web requests. There are also use cases for making your own timeout trigger. In both of these cases, the timeout is because of what made the task, not something inherent in tasks.
