  • didn’t phrase that well, what I meant was when I have a conversation on lemmy I don’t want to respond to a beehaw post that less than half the lemmy population can see.

  • Beehaw has pretty good conversation. I enjoy my discussions on their communities. It also has an extremely low bar for defederation – it’s defederated with even lemmy.world. I don’t like that, would not use that as my home instance.

    Haha that's an instance I haven't heard about in a while... I personally blocked it because I want to talk to everyone on lemmy, not just half the population when I have a conversation on lemmy I don't want to respond to a post that less than half the lemmy population can see, and they've defederated from the largest instances.

    And i guess that's the good thing about the lemmyverse - you decide what level of control you want.

  • Paraphrasing a common saying... If 100 people can't pay the bank back, the 100 people have a problem; if 100 million people can't pay the bank back, the bank has a problem.

  • i mean, it's just a few peasants' lives. who cares? what's important is that shareholders and the rich can afford their third summer mansion and support yatchs.

  • bass-ackwards

    is this how kids say ass-backwards now, or is this an attempt to avoid the (nonexistent) lemmy profanity filters lol

  • to be fair the protesters aren’t really helping their own cause.

    the last wave of social protests were maybe 5-10 years ago on sexual assault, and back then protesters knew to keep to public spaces. if you demonstrate on the sidewalk or organise a march you’re exercising freedom of speech.

    but the new wave of protest organizers didn’t get the memo or something. when you do shit like block off a highway or occupy a privately-held building, you’re fighting on others’ terms. You annoy the heck out of the public, create ill-will, and give law enforcement the excuse of removing you for trespassing.

    the fact that guns were fired (along with the fact that so many policemen showed up) is crazy, but removing these protesters was the right move.

  • really? I haven't used Bumble myself but I've heard stories of guys with inboxes full of women just saying "hi"

  • So... Every new device will now have a default password of P@ssw0rd! I guess

  • U.S. customers can buy a yearly subscription of Drive Pilot in 2024 EQS sedans and S-Class car models for $2,500

    yeah, fuck that.

  • Well it's gotta be done some time... otherwise we end up with another version of COBOL.

  • Amen to that.

    A lot of Linux users have forgotten how tech-savvy they are even compared to the average power user. Saying "Linux just works" shows just how tone deaf they are.

    As someone who didnt know anything about file systems besides FAT32 and NTFS, and as someone who isn't comfortable using command line, trying to switch to Linux was horrible. On windows something might not work they way you want it to, but it does kinda work. On Linux I felt like I had to fight every step of the way to do simple tasks.

    Its like buying a car - I'm not a gearhead, I just want something that gets me around when I put petrol in. I want to drive it off the lot, even if there are a few maddening features like the cup holder being in the wrong place. I don't want to have to choose the right wheels and assemble them, I don't want to have to buy seats and install them, and I don't want to stop every other day to figure out why something isn't working.

  • In a frantic tone, she declared all of this process to be nonsense (nonsense we had to work with over the last 7 months, so yeah, no shit) and all but ordered me to send her the password manually to her private phone number.

    Execs always want security for everyone else except them.

  • Luddites, all of them

  • even prisoners get to go to the bathroom lol. some teachers are just weird

  • a pastor who doesn't want anyone to see the contents of their hard drive... more red flags there than a Soviet parade

  • "how do you like our newly refurbished presidential suite with a full outdoor patio?"
