Given it was the only easy way to protest something as community moderators you bet!

Going reverse Gandhi

It’s too big. It’s like how Christianity is not classified as a cult.

No one really knows, and Amazon won’t say. There’s speculation it’s tape, low-rpm drives connected to custom logic boards, Blu ray, etc.

Why is the US government still insisting on using polygraph tests when they’ve been thoroughly debunked?

It’s the same rage as when I learned what the Sandy Hook parents have had to endure.

Wonder if it was the pilot or the ATC.

I don’t see how the two are related.

What a dumb take. They are partaking in the Brazilian economy, are they not? They are accepting payment from Brazilians, providing them with telecommunication services. Distributing terminals. Do you think telecom operators should just have the option to completely ignore the local laws if one aspect of their business crosses an international border?

All while loudly mouthing off

What even is your point? Besides not acknowledging that language evolves.

I genuinely wonder what kind of fucking damage you have to have to seek out this shit, wtf…

Seriously, if you’re reading this and this appeals to you, I implore you to not feed this machine money and instead confide in a therapist. I’m not judging you for the way you were molded but I will commend you for taking a first step to break out of that mold of your own accord.

Funnily enough, the reason they switched to those was to use the data to train machine learning (AI) models, just like Google’s recaptcha was originally pictures of words from old, scanned books so they could transcribe all of them “for free” and train their transcription algorithms.

Bullshit DMCA abuse

I think you’re entirely missing the point, which is that for all the notable arrests for sexual abuse of children (celebrities, politicians, priests, cops) it’s never someone in drag, even though that’s one of the GOP screaming points in trying to ban drag and trans people. They’re pointing out the ludicrousness of that message.

Good luck. They own a lot of stuff.

Every Lemmy instance can see which other fediverse instances they’re connected to, I’d be satisfied if it scoped to those instance domains. It’s going to be very rare to have a link to a Lemmy/kbin/whatever instance that is not already being followed by one local user, and when it does happen, the first time any local user follows it, it’s fixed again. That covers the 99% of cases better than having to educate every user every time in every thread they innocently post a normal url instead of knowing how to even copy this special url from.

Which, let’s face it, is dumb. Other clients should be able to recognize linked Lemmy instances and handle the click transparently.

Instead, now we have links that can’t be shared outside of Lemmy and links that should only be shared outside of Lemmy.

That’s really good news. Thank you.

When you’re the president, they let you do it. Grab em right by the intel.
