- Comment on YSK: US Senate offices pay attention to how many constituents are calling them on a topic. Democracy doesn't end at the ballot box 6 days ago:
I love threads like this. I find so many interesting people to block
- Comment on Federated social media from before it was cool 3 weeks ago:
I would argue that you really don’t need to understand lemmy to use it either, that’s a cultural issue with lemmy users.
Always remember that someone is in the days 10000!
- Comment on have you ever been given a warning or suspension for using profane language at work? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve gotten a comment in my annual review, but I don’t think it impacted by bottom line score. And tbf, I was swearing in front of clients, in an industry where a bit more professionalism is the norm.
- Comment on United Nations wants to treat AI with same urgency as climate change 1 month ago:
I mean I don’t think it’s the UN’s fault they can’t get shit done about climate change, but I still wouldn’t use it as a model
- Comment on United Nations wants to treat AI with same urgency as climate change 1 month ago:
I… does the UN think they’re handling climate change well and promptly?
- Comment on BrowserPub: A browser for debugging ActivityPub and the ⁂fediverse 2 months ago:
I kind of like the symbol, so long as it’s used as a symbol. The problem is it doesn’t really make sense in the headline; imagine if we inserted a bird symbol before the work Twitter or the little space dude before reddit.

Do we have a rule against just straight-up ads? If not, should we make one maybe?
- Comment on How rental ‘libraries of things’ have become the new way to save money 6 months ago:
I mean if you’re trying to learn to be a competent handyman or build a bookcase maybe yeah, but I just need a screwdriver set for like 30 minutes to put something together.

He’ll be clocking a lot of overtime this month.
- Comment on Meta documents show 100,000 children sexually harassed daily on its platforms 9 months ago:
No, Gen z covers people as young as 11 or 12, which is a good guess for “kids on Instagram”
- Comment on 10 months ago:
Hello from Lemmy! Can you see this or do I need to @ you?
And we see the post, but I don’t think it has a title.
- Comment on I saw this ornament at the Henry Ford museum and kept an eye on it until I had got away 10 months ago:
OK setting aside the Q thing, am I the only one who had a weird number of those growing up?

And Racoon
- Comment on The free fediverses should focus on consent (including consent-based federation), privacy, and safety 10 months ago:
That sounds like it punishes small instances… a lot. What would starting an instance look like? Do you start with a huge list of servers to inspect and approve?
- Comment on The free fediverses should focus on consent (including consent-based federation), privacy, and safety 10 months ago:
Tbh I’m struggling to imagine what this would look like in something like Lemmy. It seems to be describing an extreme form of setting your account to private, but this only really makes sense in a situation where you have followers who are friends and family. How would I decide who to “allow list”
- Comment on Dukat is upset they still haven't built a statue of him in the parking lot for pushing a cart into traffic 10 months ago:
But people who don’t return carts are just as bad as landlords???

Oh you’re right, I read that as 490,000, sorry. Thanks
- Comment on Lemmy MAUs climbing back up! You love to see it. 10 months ago:
OK, but what arithmetic?
- Comment on Lemmy MAUs climbing back up! You love to see it. 10 months ago:
Where did those numbers come from? MAU/users ismore like 25%?
- Comment on Substack says it will not remove or demonetize Nazi content 10 months ago:
That’s the part that gets me. If it were just not removing content, well, I’d probably still complain but they’d have a coherent freedom of speech argument. But… they have to pay Nazis to make Nazi content and take a cut, otherwise it’s censorship and that somehow helps the Nazis?
- Comment on 41% of fediverse instances have blocked threads so far!!! 11 months ago:
Well, you’re commenting on a Mastodon post…
- Comment on Idea for future corporations trying to federate 11 months ago:
I think these are great rules, so long as they never have any teeth.
- Comment on 2023 in social media: the case for the fediverse 11 months ago:
That’s really the entire article. “Yeah, for now its run by hippies who care about privacy and run servers out of a sense of civil duty, but we can fix that”
- Comment on A take on an "ideal" fediverse 11 months ago:
I mean, they’re doable, but they’re cultural goals, not technical ones.
I’d argue that really all of these are on a spectrum between the two though.

- Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok Twitter AI Is Actually ‘Woke,’ Hilarity Ensues 11 months ago:
Agree with the first half, but unless I’m misunderstanding the type of AI being used, it really shouldn’t make a difference how logically soud they are? It cares more about vibes and rhetoric then logic, besides I guess using words consistently
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x10 TBA 1 year ago:
You know, I was starting to think they were milking the resolution for Tendi’s arc. Like, we found out 4 episodes ago, then they brought it up last episode, now it’s a plot point again; you can’t stretch out the climax that long.
But it turns out we’re still in the rising action, this was just a stepping stone. I love this show.
