not if they dont hear about it

aka school lunches. pretty sure theyre usin the same playbook

because of the people he supports

such as… ?

if they are well off, when they begin to need assistance with day to day shit they will likely move into an ‘assisted living facility’. there are actually a few tiers of these kinds of places from almost no help to full monitoring.

if they have the money, they dont need you.

personally, i wouldnt sweat it. aint your circus.

they are entirely different contexts of communication. mastodon is a ‘microblog’ platform, where one person tends to broadcast to a group of subscribed users

lemmy is just forums with threaded discussion… many to many as it were.

personally, ive always generally hated the twittersphere (microblogging), and avoid it mostly. but it is nice being able to subscribe to the small number of microbloggers i do enjoy thanks to mbin’s built-in integration.

we don’t tolerate prejudice of any kind, against anyone, but murdering large groups of innocent people is ok by us.

FTFY

rich people dont ‘earn’ money by working. so, none of this makes any sense. youre conflating several different valuations/reimbursement streams and i dont see how it could be resolved

just tax the fucking rich.

the hilarious bit is you could tax them at 100% over x and they will still be richer than you will ever be… because generational wealth is purposefully very hard to track, tax and really understand. the u.s. tax code was written for these people

could you do something weird like take the state with the least population, and set that as a floor for every other state? alaska gets 1, california gets round(population/alaska population) ?

the civil war was never really handled properly

i gotta admit, the last decade sure feels like the confederacy has won a long, simmering war.

i see 404s all the time on deleted threads/comments. when i look in my history i see stuff, when i attempt to click into it, it turns out that thing was moderated and deleted and shows a 404. the metadata technically still exists in places, but in others it is now inaccessible. and thats just my platform, which is not lemmy. every platform handles things slightly differently.

“reliably”? im surprised it works at all…

kinda like email. ever try manually sending an email via telnet? crazy the shit works at all

the protocols underlying the fediverse are largely… hmmm… more like guidelines than rules.

there are literally hundreds of different platforms/projects sending around activities with lemmy being only one of those interacting places. somtimes lemmy is just a relay for non-lemmy content. it can get very complicated.

and then add to this that server operators can modify their servers reactions to activities however they see fit. most users would use shit ‘out-of-the-box’, some heavily modify their source projects… for example, to ignore ‘delete’ requests to circumvent moderation.

if you think youre ever going to find the ‘correct’ vote count, youre expecting more accuracy from that metadata than it will ever provide from any source.

thats cool, just know youre part of the problem, not the solution.

your reasoning for not leaving is exactly what they want to hear.

• dave n busters doesnt even have a pool table, if youre not a ticket-kiddie, dont bother
• both national sports have been commodotized to extract every ounce of revenue, removing any actual enjoyment from the process
• a beer anywhere in public is >=9$. who the fuck can afford that?
• 30% of the country are zombie fascists and dont know it, and theres no way to actually talk to those people. i am out of patience.
• they just turned the only roller rink in 150 mile radius into a pickle ball thing for old assholes who pay more.

just off the top, im sure theres plenty of other anecdotes

agreed man, fuck your family.

what if its about lemmy the platform?

Cory generally writes to try and inform, they are the same.

then he has completely failed to understand the concepts for people using him an a information proxy

isnt he supposed to help inform? or is he just an echo chamber to the lowest-common-loudmouth?

mbin!

this seems sophmoric. if the idiotic dems can regain control much of whats happened gets reveresed.

there will never be an armed revolt.

im hoping this adds fuel to the potential revolt that may happen after trump dies his cowardly death.

one can dream
