  Well, there you have the exact meaning of anecdotal evidence. It does not count at all. Also, it is assuming causation instead of corellation.

  And ltt is a great example for a place thats quite incompatible with the fediverse. Linus is a good pipeline to get peeps into computers but not a great person, sadly.

  That said, the person asking specifically wanted NEWS. Can you umagine how your goals differ?

  We’re getting nowhere here. You’re in the “i own your ass” mindset of capitalism. Thats not a base for discussion. They likely also ate and took a shit on time paid for by people. The whole idea of only paying for a specific task is so fucking dystopian.

  Just take a second to imagine yourself in their shoes. Waking up, not taking a shower (slightly joking but who cares), either eating something or smoking some weed or both, sitting down in front of a computer, writing code, working on bugs, writing documentation, eating, going outside (hopefully), going to sleep.

  As someone who does this shit for a living, you cant clearly divide tasks in non manual jobs and even then it is micromanagement which will likely make a lot of workers sick.

  I dont know where you have the idea from. Its not real. Of course they might fix a bug in their instance, answer a modmail. Moderating a lemmy instance isnt that crazy of a deal. Of course its labour but the idea to call them scammers because they moderated their instance feels like you might wanna smoke less, more or something else (metaphor for get your head straight).

  This judgemental shit just isnt healthy in this place and people hating on other people doing shit for the community isnt as cool as edgy as you think.

  Of course they can. This still doesnt give you the right to be disrespectful. Also, they have questionable beliefs, big fucking deal!

  That joke was actually pretty funny. But what were those other posts mate? Show a little respect to the people giving you the opportunity to post here at all.

  Okay, where did you get that info? Do you know what the term anecdotal evidence describes?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just saw this by chance: Donations and Patrons for Lemmy development surged massively on Liberapay in the last weeks!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. I dont have a lot atm but I try to give what I can and also help out with work.

  They posted asking for people to stand up for them. Dirty communists like myself (okay, and others) stood up and pushed that message everywhere we could. Because you have to want freedom and democracy. It does not come for free.

  Thanks for your opinion. Do you post in that community? Do you have a better idea? If you can answer both questions with no I would ask what differs your post from spam.

  I mean, you just mentioned that. Of course someone will disagree, but most probably wont bother. I just wanna know, do you exclude gaining a new perspective from this? Because I’m exceedingly strong willed when encountering illogical or otherwise short sighted points. But sometimes folks just show me a new perspective and I am compelled to agree. Doesnt happen often except in tech questions but here we are.

  Crazy idea: use a bot? A lot of communities already do it to help with lack of folks where the techies dont regularly post. You can still get your news here and you will likely attract other folks like you (maybe tell them over on other places that we now have sports news). Just trying to help

  Listen, I want to dismantle a LOT of companies that are a thousand times bigger than this.

  so if your concern for workplaces is so much higher than for people getting systematically fucked and not that rarely lose everything - even their lives - you’re gonna get real unhappy.

  This system is fucked, stop defending it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bungie appears to have plagarized an artist's work and style in their extraction shooter "Marathon" according to this Bluesky post⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, at this point the company should be dismantled and the leadership thrown in prison. These corporate edgelords wont learn. They will just overstep, inch by inch and the courts will understate their deeds over and over until there is only one company that rules the world and sell you your fucking liver by the minute.

  Dismantle this pile of shit.

  This is the main character syndrom. People consider themselves the main character in this world and the others just npcs (non player characters, bystanders). Best way to tech them is a bucket of cold water (literally or figuratively).

  I know that. And you’re right that corporations are working hard to keep good things from happening. I’m saying history and science are disagreeing with you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨European Citizens' Initiative to "Stop Destroying Videogames" is missing ridiculously low thresholds.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So you’re assuming based on failed attempts. Psa: there is no relation between things failing and the likelyhood of them succeeding. Many things have failed many times and then succeeded.

  If you use plex and jellyfin anyway, i suggest checking raspberry pi and kodi (libre elec) as an alternative. The pi4 is fine for hd at least, some use it for 4k but i have no exp with that. It works well and helps you get off the apple ecosphere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy.one will be shutting down⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Fully agree. Make issue, open bug bounty if you wish. Ask your community for donations or plain make a paid service so you can handle finances. Thats it. Of course things can always improve but that also requires that instances drive donations to the devs and are active in decisionmaking.

  In germany, we have places where you can share your plant seeds and such. They’re usually connected to other social institutions and leftist spaces.
