  • An important point is that advertising, tracking, all the junk which the OP link demonstrates, is technically not possible in the gemini protocol.

    btw this is false. companies can still write a small text to advertise their product or create an advertisement image and distribute it over gemini. if the protocol allows data transfer, then it also allows distribution of ads.



  • yeah i’ve heard about gemini but i don’t like that they don’t just work over HTTP (which would be entirely doable, btw). so i need to download a custom client or a browser plug-in, and i don’t like it. i shouldn’t have to install another 3rd-party software on my device just to interact with online content which the browser can already do perfectly fine.


  • And then an ad that covers the screen so that controls are not visible, and follows on scrolling.

    yeah and the “x” to close the add is so small that you necessarily misclick (especially on mobile) and it opens another tab that redirects to the play store. now play store knows you’re into this shit and keeps recommending it to you.


    • download our app (on mobile)
    • asks you to make an account every time you scroll down a little further (like instagram actually does in my browser)
    • article is 3 paragraphs long, afterwards 15 paragraphs of unrelated “recommended content”
    • videos start autoplaying
    • there’s an annoying source of sound that you can’t seem to track down














  • quantencomputer konnten immer schon bei raumtemperatur laufen, die frage ist nur, was dann noch der kohärenzgrad ist. also wie viele rechenschritten können hintereinander ausgeführt werden, bevor der zustand im system zerfällt?

    edit: sry english translation:

    Quantum computers have always been able to run at room temperature, the only question is what the degree of coherence then is. So how many calculation steps can be executed in a row before the system’s internal state decays?
