Thank you for saving me a click. Undersea data center operation and seawater cooling is not new; Microsoft has been pursuing such efforts for a decade or so now, under the auspices of Project Natick: https://natick.research.microsoft.com/

Perhaps a second wave will be incoming, per this post about a coming Reddit paywall for some content: https://sh.itjust.works/post/32792815

Kagi user chiming in here. Have been incredibly happy with the service in terms of search quality and overall usefulness since subscribing. Feels like Google in the early, early days (I was there) before they lost their soul. Their changelog page is instructive; -- https://kagi.com/changelog

There is also a reputed new cat-to/from-human transmission vector for H5N1, which was briefly noted in a CDC report last week before being redacted: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/06/health/cdc-bird-flu-cats-people.html . NYT article may be paywalled, but details can be found in other media sources as well.

Ah, of course! Thanks for jogging my memory. Despite the growth in users, many of the communities on Lemmy remind me of the old days of BBSes and web foraa. Hopefully the Fediverse will maintain its friendliness and usefulness as it expands.

Is that correlated with students getting out of school for the summer and joining, or a different event? I have noticed a lower quality of conversation in a number of communities recently.

My pleasure. I agree!

Thank you!

Hi HellsBelle,

Firstly, sorry for my overly snarky response. I know that the "don't change the headline" rule was strictly enforced in many subreddits, but I wasn't aware that this applied here as well. Is this a rule for this particular community or the entire Lemmy instance it's on? Would you be kind enough to share a pointer to the rule list?

You don't have to repeat the clickbait headline. Write your own!

Ah, very likely. I'm a literalist at heart, which is often at odds with posts of this nature. Thank you.

The screenshot shown references nothing about a payment plan or a 69% APR. What am I missing?
