Ahh, so… crypto, which is based on crypto, can be used to pay for treatments to crypto.
Got it.

Do you mean to say that crypto is based on crypto? Crazy!
Yes, they are, which is why the gifting of cherry trees is such a strong symbol of friendship! Experiencing Sakura is uniquely Japanese.
The transience of the blossoms, the extreme beauty and quick death, has often been associated with mortality; for this reason, sakura are richly symbolic…
Both kinds of trees have blossoms. Granted, people do call ornamental cherry trees “cherry blossom trees” … but, technically speaking, a “blossom” is literally the flower of any stonefruit tree.
cherry trees and cherry blossoms are two different trees
Do you mean “ornamental” cherry trees and “fruiting” cherry trees? A “cherry blossom” (or “sakura”) refers to the flower of a cherry tree, usually of the “ornamental” variety. The article seemed fine to me.
Turns out there’s a lot of historical context. Also, whether it was God or Satan who influenced David is somewhat ambiguous thanks to quirks in translation.
Audio, like a lot of physical systems, involve logarithmic scales, which is where floating-point shines. Problem is, all the other physical systems, which are not logarithmic, only get to eat the scraps left over by IEEE 754. Floating point is a scam!
You’re right that keeping European Honey Bees (Apis mellifera), even though they are introduced/invasive to North America, isn’t usually detrimental to native pollinators. However, Apis is in no way in danger; they are an agricultural livestock.
Point is, saying you’re “saving the bees” by keeping honey bee hives is like saying you’re “saving the birds” by keeping chickens. Weird flex, but okay.
Hard disagree. This is a problem every web service has had to deal with since the beginning of the web: what happens when a host (either the machine or the person) stops working? How do you keep the service up?
Centralized services solve that problem with internally funded, transparent redundancy. Federation solves the problem with externally funded, highly-visible redundancy. They’re still the same solution, just a different way of going about it.
You could argue that user identity is lost due to the discontinuity between instances, but that’s probably something the Lemmy devs could fix without too much hassle.
You’re right: it’s probably not practical to paint a building with the stuff. Nighthawkinlight briefly comments on this. I believe the idea is to use it on passive radiator panels to sink heat from a pumped coolant fluid. That way you can strategically place panels (e.g. on the roof) and control them, just like solar heating panels.
So, not trying to sympathize with Eich here, where do you get “alt-right” from?
Brilliant. I’m saving this imagery for later.
