Eagles aren’t safe either

There are a few community archetypes that will always gradually, but inevitably, cease to offer anything of substance without a strong understanding of moderation. Unpopular opinions, communities built around making fun of [topic], any communities that can be used for creative writing, etc.. This community is a step further than most in that its subject matter is actively antagonistic in addition to being a potential space for creative writing. It’s doomed to fail without bizarrely dedicated mods or a queue of posts pending approval.

But… but musk said that starlink isn’t meant to be used for WAR! He surely wouldn’t lie in order to attempt to spin his intent to prolong the war and sell to the other side through an intermediary!!!

I can see people bopping along to music and ignoring the non-chorus lyrics but x-men, the half century old segregation allegory with enough content to occupy a small library… that is a hard sell. It feels insincere.

I require an example of someone stating that x-men isn’t woke. I don’t believe anyone could avoid understanding that.

The Kbin dev.

And then things got worse.

Bethesda is notoriously terrible at physics and this could be a cutscene of theirs.

Don’t 3d printed guns crack after like 2 shots? Next they’re going to require ID to buy pipe and nails in order to guard everyone from modern improvised muskets.

He’s going to have to work smarter not harder.

NYC may actually have trouble maintaining a police department if the trumpets march out. Could you imagine his face if Trump accidentally created the first large majority left-wing police department?

Thankfully, the younger you get tinnitus, the easier it is to ignore. Unless someone mentions it, I don’t notice.

If they exclusively targeted larger companies, they’d be fine with me. Generally, the way they operate is to first strike smaller, more vulnerable companies to build their case before suing a larger one. Patent reform can’t come soon enough.

I think I’m just gonna leave you be, internet stranger. Good luck with… whatever this was meant to be.

“Major Xbox,” oh, are they updating the Xbox? Maybe buying another company? “…influencers,” and you lost my interest.

I always like to offer polite compliments when I find an enviable trait.

I muted the game after an hour of anime noises so I have no opinion on the music. I honestly hated the combat, though. It was the worst parts of every combat system I’ve ever encountered, with slow enemy attacks coupled with slow movement and high HP that just made for long, easy slogs. Like master mode on BOTW. I enjoyed the genshin koroks and exploration, though. Those were fun.

I’ve attempted to play genshin a few times and it seems both predatory and mind-numbingly boring. What’s the appeal?

Is dark humor for to giggle at horrifically depressing situation.

Wait, what’s this about lending??

The police gifted a patient their surplus thumbs to wish them well after a brief, inconsequential discussion about familiacide.

“Police were quoted as saying “she had it coming, that mouthy *****r” before promising that they would end her family line generation by generation while she watches, cold and broken, from her holding cell. Several severed thumbs were reportedly discovered at her bedside in a punisher tote bag. Upon review, police declared that no department regulations were violated.”

Imagine bestowing your hat upon your progeny after stowing it away for 300+ million years. That’s devotion.

Reminds me of a conversation I had a decade ago about “reverse rape.” It’s just rape. Academic study of racism hasn’t made “power+prejudice” the de facto definition and, as a result, it’s ostensibly racist to say “white western take.” I say this, once again, while agreeing with you.

Really surprised you haven’t had more bites. Lemmy’s pretty terrible at recognizing trolls. Or maybe it’s just political trolls?

I feel like your point would be more poignant without the racism but I agree?

That private prisons have contracts stipulating a minimum number of prisoners with long-term guarantees is dystopian on its own. Every bit past that is a shit cherry on top. The incestuous relationship between government and private industry exists because regulatory capture is ridiculously difficult to frugally undo once contracts are in place. How no one has tracked down the ceos of Corrections Corp of America et al., I honestly don’t know. There’s a very small, specific, actionable set of people making the world worse.

In a vacuum, absolutely. With human meddling inadvertently causing hotter, longer, broader, and more frequent fires, natural fires can cause a full or partial reset more frequently. Except in aus. Eucalyptus is future-proof. Just like politics, ecology finds people are the problem.

Politics is similar to the ecological structure and development of a forest. You begin with grasses which shield fledgling shrubs from the elements. The shrubs eventually push out the grass and make way for trees that push out the shrubs and then trees that push out the earlier trees. Then fire and flooding that brings you back to step 2.5. Focus on trees after you slit the stem of every single shrub and hope fire doesn’t set you back after.

Moderation federation is very spotty and always has been. I’ve cumulatively spent a few hours checking and it’s consistently inconsistent. Not to mention the fact that the referenced post was made after a user tried to make .world their personal drama blog using several accounts. This and the other post strike me as faux indignation.

Not sure if you’re aware of what happened to .world for a few months. If you decide to ascribe any political philosophy or moderation ethics to sublinks, it may be worth checking out the attack vectors used over there. Optimizing sql lookups extendedly occupied the .world admins so you’re already a bit ahead of the curve there.

Seems you’re getting frustrated by folks misunderstanding. I think it comes down to the oversimplification of a bar graph. Gotta offer data visualization that says what you mean it to. The bar graph says brave>tor. It’s probably best to avoid the bar graph or accept that people will misunderstand it. I’m a fan of privacytests. It’s a great starting point.

You advertise to your audience. Ads targeting the perverse and the stupid seem perfectly suited to twitter.

The words of one to be cowed by their malignantly depressed, cherubic god.

24 seems a decent time. Returning to the brain plasticity of a 4 year old with all of the memories and knowledge of a 24 year old would produce a horrific intellect and potential. Society would leap forward in any task you decide to advance. The indescribable isolation may well be the only issue, but piles of money heal many forms of hurt. See: Magic Johnson

Shut up and let me quote crime statistics at you.

Could be internal damage. At least, that was the case with my old phone.

That’s funny, I’m the reverse- Searx is my final solution. I don’t like costing the lovely people hosting it any more than I have to so I start with the duck. If ddg offers nothing, searx always has it.

As an aside, are you aware that startpage was purchased some time ago? It’s owned by an ad company now.

Searx. That it doesn’t ignore operators legitimately arouses me slightly.
