probably not, unless you add certain services back onto your phone. currently, gemini needs the google workspace to do anything, even something like setting a timer or reminder. i obviously dont know what change they make with that announcement, but i dont think they would offer such a feature without sucking the user deep into the google service world.

is this resolved then? i will update my comment to correctly reflect the current situation then :)

lemmy.world does not allow the use of vpn to post. vpn is basic internet hygiene. do not go to lemmy.world if you care about that, our you will not be able to post.

you can join any federated instance instead.

one day later edit: i took my information from this post of a lemmy.world admin: https://lemmy.world/comment/12079632

I was made aware that users are able to post on lemmy.world while using a vpn. maybe their stance has changed?

aside from that, try to avoid joining the biggest instance and join smaller, federated instances instead. this reduces load and avoids centralization.

At speeds above ~150 km/h, even on a well-organized highway, you won’t be able to control your surroundings and have to rely on sheer luck to survive, unless you’re a professional race pilot on an empty road. Also, unless the car is equipped with special gear for improved road grip, it will become uncontrollable because it will literally start to hover a little.

sorry but no. maybe i am biased since my sole experience is driving the german autobahn, but i drive well beyond 200km/h on a regular basis, which i consider travel speed when the road is not too crowded. cars that could go faster than 250km/h are usually limited to 250km/h. traveling at that speed is loud and a bit stressful, since the difference between you and other cars traveling at lower speeds becomes too high. they will not see you coming before switching lanes and braking distances are very high. but cars dont randomly switch lanes unless tying to pass others cars and you can predict these situations and slow down.

you will not hover, you can control your car normally and the only required luck is to not have others actively try to kill themselfes. you dont need to be a professional race pilot and dont need special gear (of course cars can easily be underequipped for these speeds, but you dont need special gears.

do you mean speeds above 250km/h or speeds above 150mp/h? if that was just a typo i would argue a lot less because those speeds stop being fun to drive, but are also accessible for normal drivers with normal street cars (with enough power of course, but you see plenty of those cards on the average parking lot in front of any supermarket)

Bill Gates will come and say “no!” and microsoft will make a sad face and say “okay.” and then bill gates will call my uncle at steam and ban microsoft from playing rocket league.

exclusively. i never use the left shift for anything other than running in games.

Another comment in this thread you might already have seen by now:

And there were other instances mentioned in other threads as well.

Some problems are not tied to a platform, but to their users. Power hungry people try to grab power where they can. If they can’t be mod on reddit, they move to Lemmy. Here they can try to grow “their” space. If a topic already exists on one instance, they can move to another and shape the narrative and enforce rules how they like.

if that is your primary motivation, i have bad news for you… you might have to move on. here you will get bans for downvoting “the wrong” comment or post as well.

I agree. Lemmy today feels like reddit 15 years ago.
