DieguiTux8623 , 1 month ago to fediverse in Would Lemmy Benefit from Implementing Polls?

Personally, I would be in favor of having polls because I frequently involve people in taking decisions.

But my use case is quite peculiar because (1) I need to know people’s opinion to take actions based on it, they would not be just informative polls (2) this group of people use Lemmy as their main interaction medium, no other platform is involved.

I’ve resorted to strawpoll in the past or in having comments with multiple options and relying on the most upvoted comment but these solutions have downsides.

Italian here: our “centre right” is actively on restricting abortion, dismantling public healthcare and education, deportation of immigrants, isolation of disabled students, eliminating LGBT rights and militarizing public spaces (with already students/protesters beaten by the police in several occasions) and of course jailing journalists and controlling the public media.

The only thing that sets them apart from their US equivalent is child labor, but they already have prevented the approval of minimum wages and other social safety net measures.

We don’t need any external help, we can sabotage ourselves on our own!

You’re right, my bad! The silver lining is that at least it may induce people to reduce consumption of unhealthy products and prefer quality over quantity.

And not only will prices skyrocket, but also (at least in countries that allow it) agriculture businesses will take public money as restoration for the loss.

Oh no, and the “return to office” policies?/s

DieguiTux8623 , 2 months ago to world in How a second Trump presidency could tear Europe apart

I upvoted your comment, because I like the underlying idea that Europe has been “protected” so far because they could not sustain themselves, which is absolutely true. But the previous order collapsing isn’t necessarily bad.

They can still support the US, as all of them have done for the last 79 years and are doing still now.

Needless to say, in neither case the discussion originated from a technical issue, both times we were arguing online about politics.

DieguiTux8623 , 2 months ago to asklemmy in Was there ever a internet comment that actually really hurt you?

Once I was told that I deserved to be fired and, another time, I was told that I am unable to think properly so I shouldn’t work as a software developer.

Both remarks were quite painful because they were not questioning my ideas/opinions but my professional abilities. I confess that in my “down” moments those thoughts tend to pop up even years later.

In my previous job, when the leadership imposed a culture change we weren’t happy with, a bunch of people just quit. We were replaced by new employees that are completely fine with it, but we moved to other companies where we feel more at ease, so it was a win-win.

I have already started hearing protectionistic proclaims about Chinese EVs in Europe. Sounds awkward when every single piece of technological hardware is made there and nobody has ever complained for decades. But when businessmen see their domain under threat they become aggressive.
