As long as the reason for the ban says that it was personally requested, then I don’t see why it would be a bad thing. Obviously being banned from another instance for legitimate reasons is a cause for concern and could lead to trouble in your own instance, but if it is clear that it was only because you requested it yourself, then it’s fine.

You should just switch to an instance that defederate those instances, or convince your current instance to do so.

User blocking merely blocks their communities. You’ll still see comments from the instance and you’ll still see posts in other communities from their users. You’ll also still have their votes influence your feed.

Defederation is the more proper tool to use. Individual user blocking is not effective.

You mean you personally blocked them? You need to actually be on an instance that defederates them for it to mean anything. User blocking hardly does anything, it just hides communities from that instance, that’s all it does.

You really should join an instance that defederates from those instances. That is the way to actually “vote” on the fediverse, not via simple user blocking that doesn’t actually achieve what you think it does, as the other reply points out.

I mean, lead them to instances that defederate hexbear for starters? Seems reasonable anyway.

Sounds hollow coming from an instance that doesn’t even defederate hexbear.

Getting fired with cause doesn’t come with severance

Yea this is fucked and needs to be fixed.

Not as far as I am aware - I don’t think you can really fix it within the protocol, i.e. without a breaking change. Then you may as well make a new protocol.

Why don’t they just keep working from home and get fired? Instead of having to quit themselves?

So as far as I gather, it’s still just as open source as before but you just can’t sell it on the Confluence marketplace? Seems fair.

Never forget to put glue on pizza, it really brings out a good flavour and makes the cheese all stringy!

omg what is this, reverse psychology? lol

Don’t feel obliged haha 😅

Your client doesn’t parse according to CommonMark then, which requires spacing between the # and the heading.

Finished season 2 of Ancient Magus Bride. I think the first part of season 2 is okay but it got boring for me at the end. Too many other characters that I honestly don’t care much for and too few scenes with Chise and Elias together, which is what I feel the story is truly about. Episode 6 is amazing though, maybe even the best episode of the whole show so far.

Will check out Summer Time Rendering next! Do let me know if you ever give Steins;Gate another shot.

Any FEP trying to fix this will be incompatible with existing instances, so I don’t really see how it’s gonna work.

Thanks, that’s useful!

But temperature is not just the speed of a molecule right? Isn’t it also like the “energy” stored in the molecule, or its “wiggling” or something? Like a molecule moving very fast through space can still be at a very low temperature, right?

My chemistry teacher once explained it to me like below. Does anyone know how much truth there is to this explanation?

Temperature as measured by a thermometer or your finger is an average. Not every single molecule has the same temperature. The molecules constantly bounce around, smashing into each other, transferring heat to each other. By chance, some molecules will get hit in just the right way by other molecules to reach a very high temperature and then it evaporates. So there is constantly a gradient of temperatures among the molecules and the ones with the highest temperature are the ones evaporating, until there is no liquid left at all.

As the average temperature increases, the chance of some molecules reaching a high enough temperature also increases, so warm water evaporates faster than cold water.

This also explains why evaporation cools down (like when you sweat): the molecules with the highest temperature are the ones evaporating, so the average temperature decreases as those high-temperature molecules leave the system. Only the relatively colder molecules are left behind - thus it cools as a whole.
