No don’t listen to this guy. You joke stands firm and tall in the land of absurd punctuation and capitalization.
Do not ever become reliant on the crutch of /s. /S is for the comedically weak. It is false humor that can at best lead only to a light chuckle. If your joke needs /s in order to be a joke then it’s not a good joke, and you need to take the L, study the mistake, then move on.
Yeah I don’t really see the problem with professionals having a platform with which they can reach a wide audience while avoiding the need for corporate or gubernatorial oversight to monetarily filter their scripts/opinions/programming.

Ahhh, so we’re gestating our young in the corpses of their mothers now? That seems less than ideal.
It’s generally known and well understood that bribery is a method one can use to show their appreciation.
People take issue with the inevitable structural shortcomings that are inherent to its function. No one cares about the specific vessel of action that was used.
It is ultimately the same format which does not yield constructive conversation. The conversation is as though OP were speaking on a stage making their statement/announcement and then the audience yells back to them. It functions for some things, most notably sharing popular news - not necessarily journalism, just a glimpse through the eyes of the zeitgeist; dank memes are a form of good news by this definition. It does not function for discussion oriented conversation, since most people don’t read the whole thread. The implementation of up and down votes manipulate conversational integrity in weird ways Though that will occur with any type of rating system, I believe the simplicity of the reddit style system yields conversational benefits that are less valuable than how cheap it is to implement. A cheap hack of a system will yield a cheap shoddy output. This leads me to believe a better method exists, we just haven’t found it yet.
The emphasis on user control and instance freedom is novel and appreciated, but it has come with a reckless disregard for the dangers of the nowadays well understood echo chamber effect of current social media. There are zero safeguards to prevent Lemmy from shattering itself under any amount of external stress or internal corruption. Organized attacks are a major threat, and there is a nonzero chance of that happening.
Again, all of these are just like long term weaknesses in the structure itself. It doesn’t mean it IS going to fail, it doesn’t mean things can’t be mitigated, I just don’t trust that it will stand for a very long time nor will it reach the significance of reddit. Could be wrong, but it looks like Lemmy is capable only of moving around the problems with Reddit instead of being able to actively quell them.
No and not really. Reddit is just past its expiration date. I believe Lemmy suffers from a lot of the same systemic issues and that will prevent it from becoming an actual long term solution. It’s just the alpha version. It’s better than the prototype, but it’s still built on the same fundamentals and will likely suffer a similar type of failure.
It’s wild how effective these camera filters are at removing blemishes nowadays.
They haven’t changed. The party leaders back then were the same as they are now. They were never on your side. No political party is your friend, no political party will ever be your friend, and no political party will ever put your best interests forst.
THEY don’t need to do anything, WE need to stop supporting political parties that abandon their constituents.
It’s almost like they’re all part of the same club, despite calling themselves different political parties.
It’s almost like there can be things that exist in this universe which have one side, and then you can flip it over and it has another totally different side, but it’s still the same object regardless of which face it’s showing.
You learn how to hack multiple other services together, and you coordinate with multiple third parties + their different applications. There are no other feature complete competitors. The S in AWS is what defined it. The AW part doesn’t matter; anyone can do that with enough cash, effort, and skill. Welcome to the global monopoly, thank you for your support by using AWS.

Wait, is he using his kid as a human shield now? Not one time has he been holding a child now suddenly it’s part of his wardrobe. Lmfao.
It gives the boomers another chance to solidify their legacy as the worst generation in human history. In a way that helps all of us.

I can’t say for certain on venue pricing models, but a lot of colder areas don’t have AC units installed in buildings. (I think because they don’t believe in hot weather and haven’t realized that global warming is coming for them next.)
Idk if Pennsylvania is like that though, I’ve only ever been there in the winter and AC inspection isn’t my industry sadly, so I’m only familiar with the heaters and snow.
I can glimpse 6:30PM before the paywall blocks it, though I can’t see what timezone. Looks like EST or CST, so probably just ended and vod should be up soon somewhere?
38 year old adults are generally assumed to be of voting age, registered, and willing to vote. Do you think he’ll get better voter turnout from something like Roblox or Fortnite?
Hmmmmmmmmmmm. This begs the question, what even is true level?
