Lots of lovely laws, none of them enforced. Liberals* are really very bad** at this game.

*in the political science meaning of the word, not the US colloquial meaning

**or good, depending on your perspective and/or the sincerity of their declared intent

It’s like a Calibri-fied version of Trebuchet. You can actually tell the difference between I and l without changing the font to check. It’s an improvement.

applied by centre left and liberals

It’s a term that originates with the left. Specifically, those who broke with the USSR over imperialist invasions, referring to those who did not. More broadly, it refers to the authoritarian left (as opposed to the anarchist left).

They probably will realise that 10 million is less than 1% of 1.6bn and that they can safely ignore people making shit up.

That’s not true. Instagram has 1.6bn users and all can use their Instagram logins to sign in to Threads. The roughly 1% who have signed up already have chosen to activate Threads, it’s not done automatically.

Thanks for this. Turns out they also made it hard to make anything other than Edge your default browser (you have to set it separately for each file extension). How to fix that here:

You don’t know what clutter is but you do have a very cool rabbit.

Some instances will federate with Meta because its users want/need the larger network.

Instances which do not federate with Meta will lose users who want/need the larger network and gain users who want no part of it.

That’s all fine and as it should be.

But the Meta-defederated instances will struggle to get any content beyond an endless circlejerk accusing the Meta-federated mods of corruption because they decided to do something different, as if that wasn’t the whole point of the fediverse in the first place.

(Yeah, this explanation is not the one the OP would offer.)

They’re almost certainly fash posing as Muslim.

You’re such a painfully obvious troll. Fuck off back to the fash sites you belong on.

He mocked a disabled former Twitter employee, Haraldur Thorleifsson, who has muscular dystrophy and uses a wheelchair, in a series of tweets on March 7, 2023 Thorleifsson had tweeted at Musk to ask if he was still employed at Twitter, after he lost access to his work computer along with 200 others. Musk accused him of doing no actual work, claiming a disability that prevented him from typing, and seeking a big payout 2 He also posted emojis and a link to a scene from Office Space to ridicule him.

Just to add to this, Thorleifsson had sold his company to Twitter but taken the payout as a salaried job so that he paid full taxes on it. The big payout if Musk sacked him was part of the deal to buy the company. Musk is willfully ignorant for every possible meaning of the term.

I have met enough far-left authoritarians who are openly racist, anti-lgbtq, and who advocated for violence against people solely based on their family background that I don’t think the extreme right has a monopoly on hate.

Yeah, they’re banned from lemmygrad. Rule 5:

1. No capitalist apologia / anti-communism.

1. No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

1. Be respectful. This is a safe space where all comrades should feel welcome, this includes a warning against uncritical sectarianism.

1. No porn or sexually explicit content (even if marked NSFW).

1. No right-deviationists (patsocs, nazbols, strasserists, duginists, etc).

Fold, for sure. Actually pocketable, and secure once pocketed.

I have an e-ink tablet that runs Android. Copes with most apps and can deliver stuttery video.

E-Ink can’t be far off replacing glass screens (at least as an option) because the benefits for battery life are substantial. But I’d think it would replace them rather than be in addition to. A phone with screens on both sides would be so fragile.

You miss some context or something?

There is a really, really big difference between “we want to kill you” and “we do not want to be killed by you”.

Don’t tolerate fascists. However comfortable that centrist illusion is, you are signing your own death warrant and that of millions of others (most of whom will suffer the consequences of your actions long before they get around to the people who feel safe enough to argue that fascists must be tolerated).

An influential 1966 symposium at the University of Chicago reinforced this idea. Attended by 70 men and five women…

Oh.

No zoo does this. She was used for animal testing.

This is the mantra of lemmy.ml.

Tell us, how are russian and chinese cops?

It’s more of an anarchist thing, to be fair.

They’re bastards, obv. Like it says in the OP.
