Lemmy right now reminds me of the golden age of reddit about 10 years ago. Feels good, man

This is the consequence of the fed raising interest rates and companies finding it much harder to find money to pay salaries and operating costs. So companies have to actually seek profit or go bust and CEOs and board of directors are getting desperate and showing how little they understand what makes their products great.

Amazing that the founding fathers didn't contemplate the possibility of a felon under active lawsuits becoming speaker

The way the Lemmy version of r/place would look like would depend on which other servers your server is federated with. It's a very postmodern approach where there is no single view of the thing for everyone

She and similar politicians spreading such messages should be stripped out of US citizenship

He can post a 10 second video containing a QR code to his YouTube full length video

Some managers of the devs are not that interested in significant optimizations... Depends on what incentives and company culture drives them

It's just like lawyers being recruited to work for Trump

Good to see that instance go as it didn't contribute to public discourse. Thanks for the practice work!

If the lawyers get disbarred then Trump gains time but the lawyers' careers are fucked

a conservative power fantasy

Yeah, but if people think this is harmless and don't go vote, this might become true anyway

I say let him do that and then let congress legislate this once the grim details of how the human subjects died creates a scandal and political unity across the aisle. It's the American Way®

She does not have superhuman stock picking and macroeconomic environment decoding abilities. She got massively lucky with China until Xi decided that large successful Chinese enterprises were a danger to his Party and COVID+inflation stressed all other companies

It's jarring nevertheless

Work smart, not hard. That's still a winning argument for me

She's passionate and she cares.

Interesting how politicians can say absolutely whatever they want even if that undermines the integrity of the country they want to rule over

By "judicial side" you mean "Poland is going Hungary/Israel judicial style"?

How do you like the smell of despair in the morning?

I find it... Exquisite

Shroom, my man. Shroom.

So meta, so appropriate

bon... désolé

Unless you live in places like cities around Los Angeles

Yes. 100% this. To the public, they blame and demonize "the opposition" and pass laws that help get votes. To the insiders within the GOP, they modify laws to make it easier to reroute government money to their inner circle of politicians and businessmen

This community has lots of high quality material, love it

Yes. For best legal results, he needs to max out his spending. Underspending is self-sabotage, in his case, as a famous former president.

Also, no news piece ever mentioned how far from the coast Japan is planning to release that water

That's insightful, thanks for sharing your views on this

Before and on release date, most sales are to a minority of highly engaged gamers that then create reviews and hype. Ubisoft needs that hype as they know the majority of the profit they will make is from sales after the release when the general public reads those reviews and then decide to spend their dollar on the game because the reviews were good. Also the majority of the general public won't pirate anyway...

I guess I didn't appreciate how much moderating means to some people people, especially people who are marginalised or otherwise have shitty lives...

You hit the nail in the head. I suspect that the mod protest is not about the stupid surcharges on third party API users, but a combination of:

  • Native Reddit app not offering any type of meaningful tooling so that mods can be effective at moderating content (this is the main one - if reddit always had good tooling for mods, I bet the mod community wouldn't care less for third party viewers)
  • Massive greed on Reddits part, by not offering compromise solutions (like offering free API usage to subscribes who pay some $2 per month and shifting the cost to users)
  • Reddit technical inability to push ads via API (just force adds through API and make the terms and conditions such that filtering ads become a.violation of API)

Scottish - it is somehow more intelligible for me (not from anglosphere countries)

And how come he is still among the ones who breathe?

You can consider the 10% as "interest" since the bondsman would have to cover the rest of the bail in case the indictee doesn't show up

Isn't China still enforcing the concept that any panda born overseas is the property of the Chinese state?
