We are assuming they were alive when the plane lifted off.

Federation is like instead of having single reddit you would have many different reddits under different domains, they have their own subreddits. You don't need to create separate account on every reddit, you can theoretically access those subreddits from any of those reddit servers.

Now, defederation is breaking that. If there's reddit-A and reddit-B, you have account on reddit-A and they both de-federated, you won't be able to access subreddits from reddit-B.

I think one of lemmy servers that defederates the most is perhaps beehaw.org. Their goal is to create welcoming space accepting everyone. So they defederated from servers that they believe is ruining that experience, either because admins of those servers are not proactive, or outright support stances that beehaw.org does not tolerate.

Maybe some kind of write-off that only creative accountants know about?

The difference is different admins, different policy (for example one lemmy could let anyone in, another, like beehaw asks to write why they should let you in, and that you will obey their rules).

There are also things like some settings, for example beehaw disables downvotes, they also don't federate with lemmy servers that notoriously break their policies.

So best bet would be to choose server which policy fits you the best.

Also some people might want to choose the biggest and most open server. That could be good but because the server is open to everyone it might struggle fighting abuse and also go down because of high load. Such server is lemmy.world right now.

This is actually possible, if 1 feef = 0 feet

LOL, this reminds me of my coworkers. Guy in his 50s, kids already grown up, very quiet, barely know anything about him. One time we had an event and wanted to carpool. We get all in, he turns the ignition and RAAAAAAAAHHHHH! Kind of surprised me and I learned to not assume too much.

The irony is that the monthly insurance premiums that are paid are higher than the taxes would be.

RiF for a decade or so.

That it didn't include all people responsible for VFX.

The 70mm IMAX version basically hit the limit of the length the equipment can handle, and even treaties special extensions: https://youtu.be/d5XqqylBW7M?t=592

Is quite cool to watch the whole video, which they show how the movie is prepared before it can be projected.

It is notoriously hard to replicate things in labs, especially with material science.

This was attempt to do it within 2 days of the paper being published.

To add to that, the original researchers apparently had 10% successes rate in their lab, they wanted to perfect it before publishing their paper.

Bad luck was that it leaked, so to make sure somebody else doesn't get credit for their work they published what they had within hours.

It likely will take months before this will be verified.
