Oh, you’re one of those “think of the kids” nutjobs!

Yes, that should be a user controlled thing, not an admin controlled instance wide thing.

Oh fuck off with your American bullshit!

Ideally all cats would be allowed access to the outdoors to express their natural behaviour.

https://www.cats.org.uk/media/1023/eg12_indoor_and_outdoor_cats.pdf

UK shelters require outdoor access or you won’t be able to adopt.

Around 70% of cats in Europe have access outdoors and EU believes that cat access to outdoors should not be restricted https://apnews.com/article/2ea2d3edea304defa0375a7dbedc35ae

UK law requires cat owners to provide a suitable environment for cats and some breeds or individuals might require going outdoors. Failure to provide outdoor access in such cases will be treated as an animal abuse.

One of the rules of creating a good database is to never delete any data.

Cats only started living in homes in the late 19th century in some countries like the UK. In most countries they still live outside. Living inside the house is extremely unnatural for cats.

The problem with your logic is that now you have to have multiple accounts across the “same bloody Lemmy”. That kills the whole purpose of a decentralised approach. Defederation should not be a thing at all.

Move to Europe!

Extra volts are great! We can also get three phases if needed, that’s how domestic EV chargers go up to 22kW or something :) Three phases in the UK get you 240V x 300A, but you are not allowed a single device to have more than 30A per phase I believe.

Domestic microwave ovens rarely offer more than 1kW of power, while a regular British kettle is 3kW. It takes ages to boil a cuppa in the microwave and that’s unacceptable!

How would I know without looking at the app binary?

That’s not due to kotlin.

Every decent piece of software has crap loads of resources: icons, texts, translations, manuals, sounds, fonts, etc. Even hello world app contains at least one resource - “hello world” string and what’s funny is that executable meta data required by operating systems and the string take more space than the actual code to print this string.

Most resources are not consumed by wonky code or dependencies. Most resources are consumed by images and sounds.

Kotlin doesn’t have much impact on binary size.

That moment when MS Paint is more advanced than GIMP, lol.

GIMP… GIMP never changes…

If you can SSH into a remote host, you can git push to it directly from your laptop.

WinSCP is a much better client. Also use WSL2 instead of VM.

That doesn’t mean they understand that term.

Wow, ok. You, guys (Americans), are royally fucked over there. Yet another reason not to visit the US ever.
