I see I see. I will admit until Lemmy I never experienced the whole “tankie” thing, along with other interesting discourse. I respect the view.

To offer some additional thoughts though, I believe these people have always existed on the Internet, just “elsewhere”. However, federation means they are more likely to come into visibility for the average person. It’s the flip side of not having a central entity making all the decisions - control is entirely in the hands of the individual to block/filter the content/sources/users they don’t want to see.

Could you elaborate?

I was going to say but

“The Flash? Never heard of it.”

inb4 it is damaging to both parties and a third party swoops in

While I agree on it being a slur and don’t use it, I also see the futility of the fight.

Right now that is the word, but “idiot” and “moron” are both terms that have gone through the same events as medical terms adopted as insults, causing us to need a new term.

I agree, but Good Omens was Amazon wasn’t it? ;P

If they at least saw things wrapped up, even if prematurely, I’d be more okay with it. But all my favourite Netflix series (Santa Clarita Diet, Kaos, etc) were all dropped without such an effort.

I had to cancel my Netflix subscription because that isn’t worth it.

Typical fucking Netflix.

Wait, if I cook a thing it can be more palatable than the raw version? What?

The “beneficial thing” is continued meddling in elections. So…no.

While I agree with the sentiment that the bill sucks, Elon Musk needs to stop being a cunt and fuck off. Don’t meddle in any country’s elections. Fade into obscurity. Noone wants you in their lives in any fucking capacity.

A decade ago if I met Elon Musk I’d have happily shook his hand. Now, I would much rather spit in his eye, slap him in the face and key his personal Tesla.

Welp

“I’m glad you’re here, Leon. It really takes the sense of danger out of this spooky corridor.”

Ah, like PirateSoftware! :D

“Ace the bots”?

Got back into the game just in time :D

Grass is green, sky is blue, and Uber is run by people I wouldn’t piss on if they were on fire.

Can’t wait for them to prematurely cancel it.

At the same time, extending that hand is what will help. If a person is able to go “omg NOW I get it” and then the door is shut in their face, that will foster even more resentment.

Some people wont change, but those that are willing should be accepted.
