Lemmy is a failed Reddit alternative

I first joined Lemmy back during the big Reddit exodus of last year. I like many others wanted an alternative to Reddit, and I thought that this might’ve been the one. I made two accounts, one on lemmy.world and another on sh.itjust.works, in the June of last year that I used on and off for about 4 months....

Fucking gallowboob, is he still a thing?

Kaboom ,

So like the french foreign league?

Kaboom ,

Nah, according to the articles, it includes writers and executives.

Kaboom ,

Executives and writers were drectly mentioned

Kaboom ,

The original post.

Kaboom ,

Just read it, its like half way down

Kaboom ,

Giordano went on to say that while only 10-15 percent of the population is gay, he estimates that a third or more of Disney’s writers are gay, and they “lean into gay and transgender stories.”

Giordano even focused on his career moving forward, saying he is “one step below being a department head,” but as far as Disney is concerned, he’s only “a white male.”

Now, Ive proven I can read an article. Can you do the same?

Kaboom ,

Its pretty black and white. How would you interpret those quotes?

Kaboom ,

I mean, the little mermaid should be a danish woman. Like thats where the tale comes from. if they want a diverse movie, why not use a tale from somewhere that isnt europe?

Kaboom ,

These guys are Indians, not Britons. I think you meant Brits.

Kaboom ,

Well you see, that guy was trying to kill him

Kaboom ,

He worked there, you fucking dweeb. And furthermore, it was a public place, he doesnt need your permission to be there

Kaboom ,

Iirc, theyre the last products still using a z80, which was launched in the seventies. Keeping an entire chip fab open for one thing isnt cheap, even if its for something like a z80

Kaboom ,

You say that, but its standardized. It needs to be exactly the same if only to keep everyone on a level playing field

Kaboom ,

For something like the SAT, yeah, youd want everyone on as level a playing field as possible

Kaboom ,

Yeah, theres an hour for lunch. It works out to 8 hour days

Kaboom ,

You get salary, its paid

Kaboom ,

You get paid for the month. You arent paid by the hour, you are paid for working for them.

Its a different mindset

Kaboom ,

That depends on your manager. Ive had some that let me work whenever, one that wanted butt in seat, and right now, I play video games so long as Im reachable.

Kaboom ,

Well thats why you allow immigration, for an abusable cheap workforce

Kaboom ,

God damn it

Kaboom ,

Which is worse, Thatcher or Farage?

Kaboom ,

Ew.

Kaboom ,

Good riddance. Fucking weirdos, every other site figured it out.

Kaboom ,

nhentai did

Kaboom ,

Yes actually. Whats wrong with nhentai?

Kaboom ,

How to serve texas and other regions

Kaboom ,

Yes, because reviewing products poorly and then not buying said products is aggressive harrassment. Im not obligated to buy products, even if Im not being pandered to. You are not entitled to my money.

Kaboom ,

Because the insurance company callled their mob to break your pipes.

Kaboom ,

Mate, theres thousands of quality games that pander to me, more than Ill ever have time to play. Why would I bother with with a game thats not particularly good and doesnt even pretend to want my money?

"Moderation tools are nonexistent on here. It also eats up storage like crazy [...] The software is downright frustrating to work with" - Can any other instance admins relate to this?

After a year online the free speech-focused instance ‘Burggit’ is shutting down. Among other motivations, the admins point to grievances with the Lemmy software as one of the main reasons for shutting down the instance. In a first post asking about migrating to Sharkey, one of the admins states:...

Kaboom ,

Dont forget the complete ignorance of gpdr. That shit will get you fucked over, and its not as simple to follow as it seems.

In fact, Im not 100% sure that federation works with gpdr, since you cant garantee all data will be deleted.

Its an old slogan, it was a thing before trump used it

University of Minnesota pauses hiring of professor who called Israel's war against Hamas 'a textbook case of genocide' (jewishinsider.com)

The University of Minnesota paused the hiring of a professor who wrote that Israel’s military operation against Hamas in Gaza after Oct. 7 was “a textbook case of genocide” to head the school’s Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies (CHGS), Jewish Insider has learned....

Kaboom ,

They havent hired him yet, so theres nothing to sue over

Kaboom ,

No, you cant import it. They dont meet safety standards.

Kaboom ,

Except you know, working airbags, seat belts, fuses, a firewall (as in the sheet of metal separating the engine from the passenger compartment), working crumple zones, 5 mph bumpers, rollover protection, stuff like that

Kaboom ,

You would have go back at least 50 years in safety standards, and thats a little much even if the president had full congressional support behind him

Kaboom ,

The pinto was 40 years ago, so thats probably accurate. Makes sense china is 40 years behind.

Kaboom ,

Safer than any chinese car

Kaboom ,

Its javascript, itll just let you do that

Kaboom ,

Imo, its better for it. A tool shouldnt tell the user what to do

Kaboom ,

I always thought it was about shattering windows. Bad place to be, overwhelmed emergency services and covered in deep cuts

Kaboom ,

Sounds like they do. SCOTUS shouldnt legislate from the bench.

Kaboom ,

Roe v Wade was a court decision, when the congress should have it law. They had decades to fix it, and congress never got its act together.

Transgender swimmer Lia Thomas out of Olympics after losing legal battle (www.theguardian.com)

The US swimmer Lia Thomas, who rose to global prominence after becoming the first transgender athlete to win a NCAA college title in March 2022, has lost a legal case against World Aquatics at the court of arbitration for sport – and with it any hopes of making next month’s Paris Olympics....

Or send them to the mens side, which is ironically is open to everyone.

Kaboom ,

So this is just a de facto ban on trans women participating in any sports under this organization.

In the womens side of things, yes. The mens side is still open, always has been. And they were very clear and open on that.

Kaboom ,

I’m not 100% sure about every sports organization on the planet, but generally speaking the men’s divisions are open to women and nonbinary people. I can’t seem to find much in the olympic rulebook, and it also doesn’t seem to have been tested or ruled on.

Kaboom ,

Its mentioned in the article, but it bears repeating.

They force give you the first quest of a questline for free, and then charge you seven bucks for the second 15 minute quest.

Its also not complete, its an early access paid mod where they clearly cut content out of the game just to give you the first hit of a faction questline, end that first quest on a cliff hanger, and then charge 7 bucks per quest. And before this, the faction was just a series of kiosks giving radiant quests.
