This only works more with my supposition.

And I don't know about that, there is a considerable amount of relatively wholesome stuff on Ao3.

Are they? Or is it some minority promoted by the corposcum?

Huh, thought about the #videogame #censorship situation.
Wouldn't it be an option to rework one of the blog frontends to be suitable for games so that games could just... have their own page in ActivityPub with links to whatever payment and store options?
That could be done either as a client or server implementaiton.
Sure it's not as good as a proper #p2p option but it also would require much less from-scratch work.

Laws seem to make their thefts a lot more profitable. They increase the risk when enforced, but they certainly make it more profitable (stifling competition, increasing the value of product, etc).
I don't think the two scenarios are really comparable.
OpenAI should be seeking the abolition of copyright instead of trying to pull silly bullshit (of course that would *also* destroy their own business model, but I consider that a good thing).
Remembering that time I tried to order a custom logo on a cap while much younger and it was denied because of rights holders/copyright (it was a relatively niche reference).
I remember thinking those copyright assholes had no business getting in the way of my order and should just walk off a tall building if they were that mad about it.
I remain satisfied enough with that take, but I'm disappointed I didn't take the logical step of just buying a hand embroidery kit and doing it myself because fuck'em.
A pithy way of summarizing the problems mentioned throughout the episode would be "letting the tools use *you* instead *you* being the user and god in the machine using tools is very unhealthy".
One of the things I find more contentious with that #TheInternetIsCrack #podcast is that there is conflation of the harms of technology with the harms of capitalism and the harms of corposcum-controlled technology.
The problem with that is that while the last two are fairly tightly intertwined, the same cannot be said of the first with the latter two. The relationship is a lot more complicated and the first absent the last two is a very different matter.
For the first episode, a lot of what is discussed can be put solidly under the last category, and very little is inherent to the first. But that distinction isn't mentioned or remarked upon.

Journaling the write means that if the write gets interrupted before it is a valid journal entry, then it's discarded entirely & state is unchanged, and if it gets interrupted before it is written out to disk after it has been journaled, then it can be recovered without issue.
Databases in theory should be designed to cope, but some of them might rollback recent transactions if write consistency isn't present.
https://www.sqlite.org/atomiccommit.html The assumptions of what happens after a flush matter here.

However, if the synchronous setting is lowered to "normal", SQLite only flushes the rollback journal once, after the page count has been written. This carries a risk of corruption because it might happen that the modified (non-zero) page count reaches the disk surface before all of the data does.
In other words, one's settings matter and I'm advocating for the strictest consistency & integrity position (don't follow silly online advice for "performance" without understanding the tradeoff).

On my setup, wal_sync_method as fsync is fine.

The average USA American is one long-term injury away from bankruptcy and the lack of social nets the USA is infamous for.
It's not amazing a situation to be faced with in Europe either, but in many places in USA it results in swallowing one's gun being disturbingly attractive.

I first got them mostly so I could take notes during changes that required downtime (and so prevented digital notetaking).
I used to use notebooks a lot when I still commuted, since I worried less about the risk of someone being interested in stealing those than expensive electronics.

Quite simply, when one bothers to look at the facts on paper, it's just not the case.
