- Comment on What are the democrats actually doing to help? 1 week ago:
Yes gender in quotes since there at least 7 different definitions floating around, some in the dictionary for decades, some floated on Tumblr circa 2012.
- Comment on What are the democrats actually doing to help? 1 week ago:
class > race > “gender”
- Comment on What are the democrats actually doing to help? 1 week ago:
The best thing that Democrats can do is come up with a popular governing vision and then storm back in the 2026 midterms.
- Comment on Why don't states in the US come up with their own health insurance program? So people can pay into it prolly less then what they pay now and the state put the money in a bank and use the interest for 1 week ago:
Vermont tried for a version of universal healthcare about 10 years ago, and they decided the cost was too high.
You also have to address the free rider problem by vesting benefits in.
- Comment on Far to many people think that Jesus from the Bible was light skinned, even though he grew up in what we call the Middle East. 2 weeks ago:
He had albinism, next question
- Comment on GoneWild was once about people feeling wild and posting pictures of it. Now it's just OnlyFans sale 2 weeks ago:
This is completely incoherent. An “industry” does not have the ability to ruin people’s free expression.
Anyone who wants to create something for other people, without asking for anything in return, is still free to do so. And I assume they are (at least, they are in niche communities - I don’t know of a gonewild equivalent but I know of people who make games for fun and they’re not hard to find, either).
- Comment on Reddit power users balk at chance to participate in IPO as Wall Street debut nears 11 months ago:
Right, why would I bother with the reddit IPO? IPO pricing is all over the place. If I want it - I don’t - I’ll buy it day 1.
- Comment on Why does the film press talk so much about box office income? 11 months ago:
If these movies did not make money, they would not get made. Maybe other types of movies would get made, and maybe they’d be better, but the big budget movies that do get made are to make money.
- Comment on Microsoft's draconian Windows 11 restrictions will send an estimated 240 million PCs to the landfill when Windows 10 hits end of life in 2025 11 months ago:
Start trying Linux now using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). It’s a great way to dip your toe in the water, and your computer can run it today.
- Comment on How does lemmy differ from reddit? 11 months ago:
Cool. Can I ask you one more question? Can I comment on Beehaw (or lemmyNSFW, but I’m at work so not going there right now) using this account I have at lemmy.world? The reason I ask is, I see that I can comment on other lemmies (e.g. lemmy.ml) using this account, but only if I find them through lemmy.world’s communities|All tab. But I don’t see Beehaw there.
Or more basically, in general for another instance running Lemmy, how do I access it using this account at lemmy.world?
Thanks so much…

Good to know! Are there other Fediverse sites with different moderation practices? Like what’s an example of one with a VERY strict policy, and what’s an example of one with a very loose policy?
- Comment on How does lemmy differ from reddit? 11 months ago:
Some instances defederate from others, and you want to make your community somewhere where you agree with the moderation policy.
Is there a way to easily see which instances are defederated from others (or conversely which instances are connected)?
What does defederation imply? Feeds aren’t aggregated, or users are not allowed from the other instance?
Also one other major question. I thought lemmy was its own thing, but I guess it’s part of the Fediverse? The Fediverse is just a set of protocols? What is lemmy then?

Thanks. Is lemmy.world the best instance for general discussion?
