#Signalapp doesn't actually delete messages when they're deleted (either manually or by automation).@harrysintonen are the deleted messages encrypted?

Ok Linux people.@stevenscott if you run it from the terminal, does it give you any useful error messages that you can search?
Edit: I should have waited for "load more replies" to appear, and pushed that, and read things, before asking my question. Freely disregard

#Mamdani #DemocraticSocialist #BernieSanders #VoteBlue@MugsysRapSheet Didn't you know that billionaires are an endangered species??? And this habitat destruction will just drive them out of NY into London. We need to cultivate our billionaires!

Before Gen Z invented Aura Farming, previous generations only had Aura Hunting & Gathering@catsalad I get and redistribute aura exclusively from dumpsters and other kitchen waste streams. It's disgusting how much gets thrown away!

Starlink continues to have been designed to sell a small number of users lower-latency links at a steep premium.@Wifiwits @michael_w_busch this so much. I really can't blame the person buying starlink at the subsidized price, but I can blame the system!

Starlink continues to have been designed to sell a small number of users lower-latency links at a steep premium.@michael_w_busch To me this is the real answer. Roll out fiber just like electricity to remote communities, and use fewer satellites for the really remote stations. I get it if you are comparing starlink to better terrestrial infrastructure. (More users for a lower price and less lag than satellite internet of any kind)

Starlink continues to have been designed to sell a small number of users lower-latency links at a steep premium.@michael_w_busch I get all that, I am just dense, and feel like I'm misunderstanding...
Small number of users, how? Does this mean the people needing rural internet access? I guess I'd agree, but it mattered to me when I was out there.
Low latency compared to what? Compared to terrestrial connections, Starlink had really very high latency. Low compared to e.g., Hughes?
Premium -- is this in cost, or number of satellites? Starlink was way cheaper than Hughes for a lot more bandwidth.

Starlink continues to have been designed to sell a small number of users lower-latency links at a steep premium.@michael_w_busch can you explain for a dum-dum like me?
When I spent a summer working somewhere where Starlink was the only good option, Starlink was high latency, but also high bandwidth and almost always available. (Before and after Starlink, our best option was cell data with a booster that barely worked.) What does lower-latency, premium, and small number of users refer to?
Down with Musk, AI for support tickets, etc.

If you need to identify insects please use inaturalist, wikipedia, antwiki, bugguide.net or @alexwild's photo collection.@futurebird Also for historical interest, https://www.bugguide.net/ is one of the OGs and still going! They helped me out with my field work homework

Looking for scientific resources.@nowwhat @autisticplushy are you sure she is being rational? Or rationalizing?
I would look at what sources her talking points refer to, how they are rated by other scientists, and where they get their funding.
Being rational, statistically, delaying the onset of puberty can save so many people's lives. Vs. Having a preconceived notion that trans people are wrong and therefore being convinced by anti-trans disinformation. See https://commonslibrary.org/the-anti-trans-movement/
