The only option I can think of would be to use a vm. Unless all your apps support restoring sessions, I don't think there's any mechanism to do so globally. Getting stuff to start automatically or as a group using a script is easy enough, but that's less than half your problem as you've described it.

Do tell. a quick search didn't return anything too salacious.

Solving the fragmented community problem is something I've been pondering too, and the meta-community idea you described seems interesting.

Obviously, a proper technical solution will be difficult. Federation comes with a host of challenges, as well as benefits.

Giving communities the opportunity to be open to other like minded people on different instances would be beneficial to the network, for a number of reasons.

If two communities on different instances have the same name, it doesn't seem crazy to ask each of them if they'd like to federate with each other.

That way, apart from instances defederating, discussions could continue even if individual servers go down.

Of course, people love to hold on to their little fiefdoms, so the issue is as much social as technical.

I have little interest in being a mod, but I see the issues you're describing as a user and I've given them some thought.

You can create a community with a similar name or switch instances if you cant get your instance admin to help. For me, the frustration isn't so much with unmoderated communities but abandoned ones, especially on larger instances.

Fixing that seems simpler, as adding a toggle to hide inactive communities should hopefully not be controversial and it could be implemented by the client. Please?

It will be interesting to see how things evolve, as a solution is clearly needed but federation poses some interesting challenges especially since deleting posts should be discouraged.

I think the term you're looking for is internal monologue. I can't really answer the question, but as I am bilingual I do sometimes catch myself thinking without having an internal monologue and I can tell I'm thinking but haven't reached a conclusion almost like watching a progress bar while the language part of my brain catches up.

Then the slavery would be a much bigger piece though, so this meme really makes no sense at all

That's just how research works most of the time. The experimental setup required to build a working prototype and prove the initial hypothesis is always going to be larger and more complex than a mass market appliance. If that appliance ever gets built depends on a huge number of factors too. If the process scales as expected, how complex the device is to produce and if a company thinks that it can make money on it. The researchers, meanwhile, are probably more worried about their next grant funding.

Debian netinst. The network installable iso is much smaller than the full image as you only download stuff you actually want to install. Ubuntu used to have a mini.iso but sadly they got rid of it AFAIK.

I just gotta say, the moderation here makes me so happy I joined this instance.

If that account only ever logged in there, maybe? I'd think they'd be smart enough to look at the most commonly used IP address by the account(s) in question. Then again, it is reddit.

That, and it would be in portrait mode, with a video playing. And ads taking up a third or the screen.

That's why I asked. There's tons of hardware out there that's works fine but doesn't have TPM2.0. Replacing every windows machine with new hardware would be an environmental disaster, not to mention the expense or supply issues it would create.

Upgrading hardware for software requirements is understandable for performance reasons, but doing so because of a security feature of no practical benefit for the average user is absurd.
