:D

I’ll see if i can find something specifically about what you are asking, but I would be surprised if anyone has taken the time to try to bounce WiFi. The wavelength might not be amenable to bouncing, as it is such a high frequency signal. If I recall correctly, there is a relatively narrow range of wavelength that will actually bounce back to earth off of the atmosphere.

We need journalism, not vitriol, in !humanrights@lemmy.sdf.org <- I’m the moderator there. Just saying, if you see something in the news that speaks to the human right to privacy, we’ll spread the news if you cross-post it.

Article 12, UN UDHR

No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.

Have any resources to journalistic articles that describe the way in which Meta implementing ActivityPub would be bad for the Fediverse?

Happy to highlight any !Privacy@lemmy.ml human rights concerns (right to privacy, right to share opinions, etc.) on !humanrights@lemmy.sdf.org

Good catch, I add archive links to everything, but doing it by hand right now, so sometimes I miss them.

Sorry about that.

Planning on writing a script or something to handle archiving.

IAEA is the international body responsible for standardizations on nuclear energy.

Four years is not a long span of time in the context of nuclear energy, where technological developments take the scale of decades.

This press release pertains to the newly announced western strategy for nuclear, low-carbon energy. That strategy is still current.

By working to ensure that everyone can benefit from nuclear science, the IAEA underpins rights enshrined in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in 1976. These include the right to benefit from scientific progress; the right to an adequate standard of living and the right to the highest-attainable standard of health.

The Agency does this by using nuclear science to combat zoonotic diseases; bolster food safety; protect fruits from pests; strengthen water management; treat cancer; and of course, to help countries mitigate climate change.

heh, you should see it now - they’ve expanded the features.

i’ll take a look at the controversy, thanks.

edit: skimmed it, looks like contrived controversy to me - a rather unprofessional software reviewer that isn’t willing to engage with their subject? no thanks… but to each their own.

We appreciate you, ignore those downvotes lol, you’re still getting upvotes.

It’s only $108/yr for unlimited searches, if you actually need that many. I’m a retired software engineer and search all the time, so I just went with the unlimited plan, but most people don’t actually search more than 300 times a month.

edt: also, you do get what you pay for. the search results are dramatically different - it’s easy to do a test search and compare the results.

Well, it’s only $108/yr for unlimited searches.

And I used to use search engines professionally for work (think potentially hundereds of searches per day, sometimes), so it’s easy for me to justify paying for quality.

But according the data, most regular folk won’t search more than 300 times per month. Some days you might search more, some you might search less, you know?

Wrong, retired software engineer here.

Some people use search for more than finding recipes and google has been sucking at professional search for a while now, as has been repeatedly reported at Hacker News

Awesome, that’s exactly the type of feedback from a professional that I was looking for - I feel almost exactly the same.

Other than I feel a little bit fanboy-ish now lol.

Indeed, similarly it is fine to ignore the downvotes in this post lol.

asklemmy isn’t news.ycombinator, afterall.

After using the trial for a month and reaching the limit, i decided to pay for the $108/yr unlimited searches.

Kagi did statistical analysis before assigning pricing (it was a long process that they would update us on while they gave us leniency on the quotas). They found that 300 per month was the sweet spot for a lot of regular people that might only search a few times a week or others that might only occasionally do deep dives.

edit: fixed an error, but also adding: no, i exclusively use kagi now on all my devices. give it a test run, it is dramatically different from ddg and googhell

Key excerpt, pseudo-TLDR:

The pro-independence, largely Indigenous protests were sparked by planned changes to voting laws that will allow more long-term French residents of the islands to vote in local elections. The move has sparked fears among the indigenous Kanak population that their influence will be further diluted.

The update I’ve been waiting for to keep on exploring in NG8

SNAFU, it’s all sus anymore
