Know thyself

This is why having a big popular instance isn't all bad. It helps detect and fix the scaling problems and inefficiencies for all the other 1000s of instances out there!

A rainbow pentagram at that! The gay cabal has really slipped up and revealed themselves this time! Now all we need to do is arrest this leader of the fediverse and...

Whats that? They have no leader?

Drats! Foiled again.

Just wait until they secretly replace the trained human safety operator with this:

To all of those people who said this day would never come: I hope we can all celebrate justice being served.

“No one is advocating for sexually explicit content to be available in an elementary school library or in [the] children’s section of the library,” Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said. “That’s a distraction from the real challenge. I understand and respect that parents may choose to limit what their children read, especially at younger ages. My wife and I did. Others do, too. But no parent should have the right to tell another parent’s child what they can and cannot read in school or at home. Every student deserves access to books that reflect their experiences and help them better understand who they are.”

The popular recycled stuff back then like F7U12 and advice animals were neither clever, funny, nor original. I think you got the nostalgia goggles on.

Me too. Even though I would make new accounts regularly on Reddit, this feels different. A true tabula rasa moment. We will write the future!

And apparently that future starts with the word "Beans".

Why does Mr. "AB" have like 8 shoulder pads on? Is he insecure about the size of his shoulders?

That's one of the most important things about this in my opinion. Enough people moved over to Lemmy/kbin from this incident to kind of pave the way and help improve the platforms so that the next time reddit screws something up and a huge influx of people get a new first impression of the fediverse it will be a more positive experience for them.

Would it be possible to have the error page when you are being attacked/there is an outage point to some other lemmy instances to go to?

I think that could be a big help if there is an issue when a new user tries to check out .world for the first time. They will at least have a link to click on to check out what lemmy is like on another instance and maybe sign up there too.

It will start to stabilize eventually, but we're probably not going to see that anytime soon!

But the constitution also does not say that we shouldn't provide aid, so I guess it would be unconstitutional to not provide aid.

Aid for everyone!

Maybe Lemmy isn't for you.

Sounds like fair use to me.

Thanks. Seems like the downfall of Twitter won't stop news articles that are just a summary of a microblog.

Jokes on you, I bet with money I don't even have.

Weird how you keep asking "questions" like this after you were already shown that the stops were extremely disproportionate. It's almost like you didn't care about the answers to the questions at all, and were just using "questions" as a vehicle to insert your already formed opinions.

I'm so happy right now 😢

Cost of takeout bags, containers, IT, all that jazz,

And then we subtract the cost of plates, dishwashers, chairs, menus, tables, IT for their internal POS and seating systems... gosh, sounds like I should be getting a discount!

If it wasn't for him, the house would surely have been overrun with rampaging mailpeople and rabid squirrels by now!

That literally proves @Coreidan wrong though. 18% increase in all goods from 2020-now would be less than 5% inflation...

Alright, it's pretty clear to me you don't actually care about the truth of the matter here, so I don't really see a point in engaging further.
Feel free to have the last word. Best of luck to you.

This will be possible to actually implement on Lemmy, whereas reddit was closed source, and didn’t really care about their communities.

Just curious how you think you might go about this. Do you plan on contributing yourself, forking, or using the community to influence the direction/prioritization of new features?

Don't you want users to be on the platform as long as possible to maximize ad revenue? If this was just to force people to pay for verification, why wouldn't they make that tier unlimited? I honestly can't even believe this is real.

My understanding is that they are only getting paid the minimum wage while they are actively servicing an order. If they are online but waiting for something to come in they don't get anything.

So what you are saying is that given the fact that the world will not just abandon capitalism, overpopulation is indeed a real non-myth problem.

Oh no, I wasn't "convinced I had you", I knew you wouldn't critically think about what you said. I posted that for the benefit of others. I'm sure you're already aware of the many articles and scientific journals discussing the problem of overpopulation but you intentionally choose to ignore them to push your narrative.

You are of course correct, the 'law' as written is way too vague to actually even apply in many situations. But it is a fun way to call out articles like this!

I would personally say it is more of a rule of thumb for identifying clickbait journalism. But calling it that isn't catchy enough, much like the first half of this article's headline 😄

The best part is now all the foundations are here too so when the next big 'event' happens Lemmy will be in an even better position to absorb all those users.

Do you really think they plate the food in the back of the house, then turn around and dump that plate of food into a container, and then wash the plate?
No wonder they need to charge extra.

@bleistift2@feddit.de is right. What the lines are is very important. But it also matters over what time period.

If we do say, 20 lines per workday for a month, your heart will be fine!

Your nose might fall off though.

6/10 meme
8/10 with rice

it’s difficult to keep things secret when an entire country is suddenly involved in a war that’s literally on it’s doorstep

This description applies to the war with Ukraine as well. Weird that you think this is a point in your favor.

If you don't think Ukraine is on Russia's doorstep I suggest you brush up on your geography.

I believe that was just coincidental timing. Not complaining though, because it made it all much more exciting.

I think you've confused this post with an airport.
