The system for domain names is called Punycode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punycode

But it's still combined with domain registrars rejecting names like "αpple.com", which ultimately needs a human to approve names.

There could also be a system like here on Lemmy, where there's a separate display name, but it still doesn't really solve the impersonation problem...

Yeah, it blocking cell division might be helpful in mild doses and especially, if it can be applied only to specific tissue. But we definitely need cell division to take place in general.

The problem is, even if it were solved for 99% of systems, 1% of systems crashing is still a massive problem.

But yeah, I also don't believe that it is solved for 99% of systems. There's a ton of embedded systems all over the place, which are easy to forget about.

It is similar to Bluesky, yes. They both got a lot of inspiration from Twitter (before Musk turned it to shit/X).

And I would say that the discussions are more shallow than on Lemmy. Even though Mastodon has a higher character limit than Twitter and many Mastodon instances effectively remove the character limit, it's still fundamentally a platform for shortform interactions. Infodumping is rarely seen, because you need to create a silly number of chained messages.

On the flipside, though, you get to know people. I do appreciate the time I spent on Mastodon, because of that. It's a very different perspective as not everything is about discussing cold hard facts, but rather also people's hobbies and struggles and whatnot.

Not sure what your problem with Discover is. It uses PackageKit under the hood, which hooks into APT (as well as other distros' package management).

If you want to, you can disable Flatpak and Snap support in Discover's settings and then it is effectively just an APT frontend.

Here's a description page for Discover: https://apps.kde.org/discover/

Ah, neat. My phone speakers are far too silent, so I'll have to fiddle with this in the other direction.

I believe, it's this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrapbooking
So, kind of like a photo album but more freestyle...?

Man, with how things are going right now, I almost believed this was happening...

Man, how do you even get up there like that?

I find ants and bees and such interesting in this regard. They work together more seamlessly than humans do and arguably have a higher form of sociality.

Especially in Western cultures, we humans like to think of the individual and compare ourselves to the individual of other species. But that is a logical fallacy.
Are you smarter than an ant? Sure. But are you smarter than a human-sized ant hive? That's a far trickier question to answer...
