Isn’t the stat for any population something like 10%? So it would likely be more than just him.

I’m also wondering what’s the story behind this pic. I don’t think I’d want to park my car there or be standing there, hard hat or not.
And it seems like that structure would be damaged beyond the point where you could right it again by pulling it back up.

Maybe it’s Maybelline.
- Comment on Clicks, Eyeballs, Engagement 2 days ago:
I meant the communities, not the instances.
Like I had to block a com that was just some guy with a bot reposting a bunch of shit from Reddit, because it kept shoeing up in my all feed. I’m curious, because I bet that has to be the most blocked com on Lemmy. But yeah probably followed by a bunch of hexbear coms. The nsfw can be toggled without blocking right?

These are the people who complain when you don’t use /s on the internet.

It was more than a few or a handful. The internet just gives them a bigger megaphone

Mediscam?

Somewhat off topic, but this makes me think, I’d be curious to see a list of the most blocked communities on Lemmy. Instance admins could make that available.

Well if half of the windows boxes are running it, and they push an update without stages, and that breaks everything, I’d say that fits.
- Comment on Downdetector is down 3 days ago:
None of it is. Same with all the corporate social media shit.

The detectives don’t detect if you logged on to the service,
Who are ready to hear the worst about their websites disappearance,

Yeah and what was that “security” kernel module update from Cockblock that bricked like half of the Windows systems on earth like a year ago or something? Single points of failure. Smart.
- Comment on Downdetector is down 3 days ago:
I have this hope, that with all the AI garbage and shit social media algorithms, that there will be some kind of rebirth, where a new type of internet will look somewhat more like it did in the late 90s and early 2000s. Maybe through tor or something similar. It will be niche again, for techies and geeks and smart funny creative people. The normies can stick to Twitter and TikTok and Netflix and whatever corporate garbage. Maybe tor and the fediverse will play roles in this rebirth. Or maybe I’m just being too optimistic.

But that’s how you know it’s true. Just needs a Reddit username now.

But CNN, ABC and CBS are all Trump controlled now. Maybe NBC isn’t, yet?

Like a really shitty comedy series, that no one watches. Something on “Must See Thursday.” Right after Meet the Racists, and Honkeys Be Pregnant.

I can’t figure out if Hank would be for or against the Tylenol. I think he would step in and stop the magic oils and tell them to just take the gosh dang Tylenol. Dale on the other hand, I’m not sure where he would stand on that. I could see him buying into the conspiracy theory, but if it’s the government pushing it, he would have to be against it.

Why the attempt to make this political. What does anal have to do with the white house? Some of us might like anal.

Maybe the billions can beg, er convince, Trump that we need to use all types of power available, including solar and wind, to get our infrastructure up to par.

Poem for your sprog. I had no problem with the novelty accounts, and even the bot accounts there were clearly just some dev with a quirky sense of humor. Though those got hate from the anti bot purists, for whatever stupid reason.
It’s the corporate, vote manipulating, spam, Russian propaganda etc bots that piss me off. And those are much more subtle and harder to detect.

How do you do this without having “fake accounts”? How do they define “fake accounts” here?

- Comment on When Xfinity has an outage, I don’t pay for those days. The government’s been shut down for 39 days so can I pay 39 days less in taxes? 1 week ago:
But what non-dysfunctional government that doesn’t behave like it is a subscription service shuts down regularly?
This forces OP to asking themselves (albeit somewhat jokingly) this kind of question. Why should they be a proud contributing member of a society when the body receiving these contributions does not properly perform their contribution to society? Is it really only an American who might ask themselves such a question?
