Even under ideal conditions, efuels are still very energy intensive. It's also interesting that the biggest advocates for efuel adoption are oil companies.

Critics highlight that manufacturing e-fuels is very expensive and energy-intensive. Using e-fuels in an ICE car requires about five times more renewable electricity than running a battery-electric vehicle, according to a 2021 paper in the Nature Climate Change journal.

Some policymakers also argue that e-fuels should be reserved for hard-to-decarbonise sectors such as shipping and aviation - which, unlike passenger cars, cannot easily run on electric batteries.

You also should try to elaborate on what it means to "cheat" because it sounds like you are just making up a Boogeyman after listening to too much Fox News.

Their user base has grown tremendously since they dropped support for SMS. Just read the article.

That machine he built will not be anything close to worthless after 6.6 years. I literally just last week moved my spare 1080 ti into a second gaming computer. It came out in 2017.

This could be better than the current situation but I could imagine a lot of side effects to that system. Maybe if there was a lower threshold that had to be met so we couldn't have situations where someone with 20 votes wins.

You are misquoting the comment above yours. The title of this post is an example of a member trying to exclude himself from the rottenness of the party.

It isn't immutable. There are already 27 amendments.

Lemmy sure attracts some fucking characters. The guy simply pointed out that stealing isn't justified by a 60-second wait. And you are jumping in here ranting about the price of steak for some reason. You're not Robin Hood. You're just a dumbass with a keyboard.

Right. Applying any form of application-level encryption to the account IDs stored in the voting tables would prevent anyone without the secret from being able to find out who voted for what by peeking at the voting tables.

The more I think about this problem, the more solvable it seems to be.

It is only shocking if the expectation was set that your votes are private. If you wanted to avoid linking an identifiable account with their votes then you could use a de-identified user account to track a user's votes.

You could to perform deterministic hashing prior to persisting a vote to ensure that those looking at the database can't go backwards to find the specific users who voted on a post. But any service that knows the salt and hashing algorithm can start with a user account and determine that user's voting history.

This allows you to track up/down votes per user without allowing over-priviledged DBAs or malicious actors from poking around voting histories of identifiable users.
