- Comment on 'A cavity is not a vagina': Trans woman refused healthcare in France 1 year ago:
The only reason a trans woman would go to a gynecologist is to raise a stink. No other reason, no “healthcare” reason. I hate people who go out of their way be to a “victim”.
“There is no recommendation for a trans woman to have regular gynaecological check-ups, unless she has a surgical problem related to the operation, because she doesn’t have a uterus or a cervix,” she added.
Fucking drama queen.
Seriously, what’s a gyno supposed to do? The parts they specialize in aren’t there. I can’t imagine being so pathetic that I go out of my way to cause problems for some random doctor.
- Comment on Is there a way to block hexbear 1 year ago:
Hexbear sucks so hard you had to create an account on a better server? Or is it to get around being defederated for being obnoxious shitheads?
- Comment on Is there a way to block hexbear 1 year ago:
go the fuck back to hexbear. Your instance sucks so hard you went and created another account on another instance to get around defederation. Fuck you.
- Comment on Is there a way to block hexbear 1 year ago:
Hexbear users are such shit they had to make an account on lemm.ee because hexbear is defederated from so many places. Fucking losers.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
9 hours later, reading through this whole thread, has it changed your opinion? Because about 80% of the comments are from hexbear users generally being shitheads.
Is that what you want the newcomer experience to be?
“Just build a block list of a couple dozen communities and a few hundred @hexbear accounts and then it’s not so bad!” isn’t something a newbie is going to put up with.

Socialism is a single party system. All other parties have to go. That’re core to the philosophy.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
Please keep it up, it’ll make defederating an easier decision.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
What part of “toxic shitposters with toxic mods should be defederated” is “red scare”?
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
The posts from Hexbear accounts in this thread is exactly why they should be defederated. Can’t have any thread without them shitting in it.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
Your instance has replaced
“removed (by the people who moderate this sub)” with “removed liberal”
Which is sad and pathetic.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
Which doesn’t help for web users.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
It’s run by Linus Sebastian, not Torvalds. Torvalds wouldn’t have a youtube like that.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
This. This is very tame example of why they should be defederated.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
In case I wasn’t clear: Defederate the propaganda spewing, “alternative facts” trolls or at least make them as such.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
Until they have the native tools to let me, as a user, block the entire instance I’m with you. Until then defederation is the only way to make “All” even bearable.
Should I stop contributing, leave, and come back in a few months to see if those tools have been made? Because that’s a much preferable alternative than wading through so much shitposting blocking one community or user at a time. And I still see the effect of their votes.
If this is going to drive away people who have been here what do you think it’ll do to newcomers? Do you think people will really want to join somewhere where every top post is full of tankies?
Besides it’s not like they’re posting in good faith. They’re not there for an honest conversation. They are ChapoTrapHouse and they don’t deserve the benefit of the doubt. They are 100% trolls.
- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
Hexbear is making Lemmy unbearable for me. There’s no function for a user to block everything from a server. I don’t want to see their communities, their users, their posts, their messages, or their votes showing up.
I block communities as they come up, I block individuals as they post, but it’s never ending.
Every popular post is over-run with tankies shitposting, griding real conversation to a halt.
They’re not people open to having a conversation in good faith.
A first timer looking would see 90% tankie crap and would leave and not come back.
I’ve contributed less since they were joined simply because I don’t want a herd of tankies yelling at me with nobody else even reading it.
Until such a time that I, as a user, can bock everything from a server I support defederation. Or at the very least put a giant poop emoji next to everything from that server so it’s easier to skip. They seem to like poop.

I use NFS with caches (cachefilesd) on a local SSD. Works great.

People downvote things they don’t want to be true.
It’s strange. It doesn’t work that way.
- Comment on Insurance Company Flew a Drone to Take Photos of Man's House and Canceled His Policy 1 year ago:
Private more up-to-date sources aren’t very expensive.
- Comment on Insurance Company Flew a Drone to Take Photos of Man's House and Canceled His Policy 1 year ago:
The same reason flying airplanes isn’t “criminal trespassing”. Satellite and aerial photography happen really high up.
No insurance company used a small toy drone to fly 50’ over his property for pictures.
- Comment on Insurance Company Flew a Drone to Take Photos of Man's House and Canceled His Policy 1 year ago:
Insurance companies use ariel and satellite photos. So do municipalities to check for unpermited work.
They’re not going to drive out to each customer with a toy drone. They’re essentially using google map satellite view.
Can we stop the hysteria and take a few minutes to think things through?

Go back to reddit, the adults are trying to have a conversation.
- Comment on I feel like Fediverse users are nicer to each other and more generous with upvotes than reddit. 1 year ago:
“Capitalism is good”
“Conservatives aren’t completely selfish” (backed with links to leftist sources)
“NFTs aren’t worthless”
“Making everyone people pay for rich people’s college debt is wrong (and a net transfer of wealth upwards)”
“The central banks cause inflation on purpose”
Some are opinions, some are facts people don’t like. All get down voted.

No, not really. Have a “wrong” opinion and see how it goes.

lemmygrad.ml and lemmy.ml are gone? So sad.
Anyway.
- Comment on Netflix says people just kind of rolled over and accepted the password sharing crackdown 1 year ago:
Turns out lemmy users aren’t representative of the greater public.
Of course the person using a shared password either left (saving Netflix money) or got their own subscription (giving Netflix money).
Netflix doesn’t care that people who weren’t paying stopped using their service.
- Comment on James Cameron on AI: "I warned you guys in 1984 and you didn't listen" 1 year ago:
If the AI doesn’t have good goals programmed in, we’re fucked
When they built a new building at my college they decided to to use “AI” (back when SunOS ruled the world) to determine the most efficient route for the elevator to take.
The parameter they gave it to measure was “how long does each wait to get to their floor”. So it optimized for that and found it could get it down to 0 by never letting anyone get on, so they never got to their floor, so their wait time was unset (which = 0).
They tweaked the parameters to ensure everyone got to their floor and as far as I can tell it worked well. I never had to wait much for an elevator.
