  • Considering the fact that a lot of the Reddit mods are also Lemmy mods, what would be the mechanism to remove abusive mods here?

  • In all honestly, just try to talk to people. It does not always work. Some fuckwits are mods for the narcissistic idiocy. Be the change you want to see, and then push your way into the cultural discussion.

    Like 90% of the time, sending a PM is more than adequate to curb behavior. Every mod action is harmful without exception, as proven by the prisoner's dilemma in game theory. Negative feedback is incapable of producing positive outcomes. Adding as little negative feedback as possible creates the best environment for everyone.

    If you want to be a mod, that means sorting out flags by reading into the situation from both sides. I will not tolerate bigotry or personal attacks of any kind. However, every individual has a right to all information, a right to skepticism, a right to error, and a right to protest in nonviolent forms aka the right to offend others. No one has a right to infringe on these same rights of others.

    My personal feelings are irrelevant as a mod. I will not take actions against someone if I am participating in the conversation. I will flag the issue and PM another mod. I try to remember to sign my mod log messages because I have nothing to hide and despise any coward that lacks full transparency from a position of authority. I am the janitor. I clean up the messes. I read into the details of every flag. I am just as likely to take actions against the person that flagged the issue. I usually contact both parties in a PM too.

    I have experienced many bad mods, but that is my catalyst. Everyone is valid, even if unpopular. Everyone has a right to error because that is a primary way that we learn. The only scope that I will bias heavily is any issue with diversity and especially any transgender negativity because the Fediverse is a safe heaven in that regard.

    Dichotomous logic is a sign of stupidity and something to avoid with self awareness. If you are unwilling to reach out and take as little action as required, you a doing it for the wrong reasons and ultimately harmful. Immediate emotional reactions are harmful. Think stuff through from all perspectives and give every benefit of the doubt as possible. Everyone has a right to have a bad day too. Don't let some halfwit reaction make their bad day worse even if you disagree strongly as a person. A good judge always separates their emotions from cognitive logic. Being a mod is not hard at all. One just has to care. The community is self regulating with flags that indicate when action is needed. Micromanagement is a mental disorder. The best communities are often those with inactive mods.

  • Language Learning...

  • My favorite surprise language is very very Asian looking with a hillbilly southern accent and slang. Really any distinctly atypical phenotype mixed with redneck is fascinating. I can easily opt out of my southern accent. It is not my default. I find it funny how some people cannot switch it off.

  • Sales bs has been totally disconnected from actual specs for a long time. Like shopping for hardware a few years ago, I could not rely on any sales garbage for info. I only looked for verifiable model numbers and then looked them up on linux-hardware.org because those scans list everything the Linux kernel discovered.

  • How to gain outside information / communicate safely if your government becomes oppressive and shuts down the internet?

    Jump

  • I never said that. You are crazy. You have no grounded scope of the subject as a whole. I'm talking about far more than you realize, but have no way to fix your ignorance because you have multiple errors stacking and have not given me enough information to diagnose those issues. I do not mean any of that as an insult or to be mean. I was young and ignorant too. You have made assumptions that are incorrect, and I would like to help but cannot.

  • Anyone can detect any transmitted radio signals. The ARRL books explain how. I'm too lazy to go look at my copy to photograph the section of the physical book in my room. The frequency licensing is totally irrelevant here. That will just be changed and noise will get broadcast over the band. If you keep trying to transmit, someone will find you. You are literally creating a beacon in all directions that points at you. Everyone will be listening, but one by one there will be no one to listen to. This is standard stuff. Every military unit has radio counter measures. You are very limited in real output power already. The big boys will blow you away because they have no such restrictions. It is one of the reasons why there are power limits. Now if you can hide something useful and encrypted near the noise floor, that is one real possibility, but in this age of software defined radio, you are still going to get caught.

  • At this point, should I trick Reddit into thinking that they’ve wrongfully banned my account “r/DylanMc6” in my ban appeal? (repost from !hexbear@hexbear.net)

  • Meshtastic is still radio just the same. It is a transmitter and will get triangulated, but that is irrelevant to what I said. What I am talking about is how all radio devices you actually use are easily logged. Cell towers are one way, but the device is easy to log more locally. For instance most big retail stores are logging people in the door and their movements. Heck, it has been a few years since the papers about how people can be tracked based on changes and response times within WiFi coverage using standard consumer hardware. It would not surprise me if this is used by some now. The air tags nonsense, that is the same type of thing. The real reason you do not have removable batteries in mobile devices is so that you cannot turn them off. They are never fully off. That is how stuff like air tags still work. Stuff like Intel's ME, AMD's PSP, and ARM's TrustZone are the systems that are used. It is a whole extra operating system running in the background on your hardware. These have a lower root level access to everything on your hardware. It is trivial to log signals from all mobile devices that pass a given point. It may still require some coordination to correlate cellular and video manually but I highly doubt that. In all likelihood, the current generation of hardware is already collecting this data. Look at all the stories of people getting caught a few days after crimes. That was unheard of 2 decades ago. Now it is practically a given. If you are in public and transmitting radio signals now, you are fucked. We would all need to dress up as Tusken Raiders to have any chance at anonymity now.

  • Radio is trivial to triangulate the broadcaster if someone tries. You can receive anything, but not transmit. If you have line of sight, lasers can be focused to some extent to limit scatter.

    One of the biggest changes in Ukraine has been attaching a very thin fiberoptic wire to drones for their connection up to a few miles away. That is evidence of what is truly required and pragmatic. So, start running similar lines if you really care and can come up with a way of hiding them. The only real option is to go dark in practice. There is no way to stop from being forced into becoming a slave in all but name.

  • Not now with Flock like bullshit. You can count on that data getting triangulated with cell service signals.

  • Only a halfwit speaks for another by writing the words of their narrative. It is a clear indicator of dogma. Dogma is wholely irrational. I have no idea who you are voicing here but it is not at all related to me. Your imaginative fiction is comical.
