Listen, if you set the bar that high you’d have to discipline the whole force.

Came here to say this

Fucking stem lords.

I’m now seeing all the articles I read posting that retraction. What wild times we live in.

Here here! 🍻 We need more Stallmans in the world! My views on software, privacy, and so much more are informed greatly by his ideas and work. He’s a legend.

I think I’ve read they prefer Liberapay, but I’m not sure exactly.

And if you want to help the team reach that goal please check out https://join-lemmy.org/support.

They don’t think that’s what it means. They know it means publicly funded. They just don’t want to pay for it because they know the rich will be fitting the bill. Don’t give them that much credit, they’re not as dumb as they want you to think.

I just wish it had the article TTS like it does on desktop!

Lol they’ll keep literal Nazi subs up but will ban communist subs. “could be considered left leaning” pffffft.

I doubt he’s an American.

Even in the United States after the revolution they implemented authoritarian measures to ensure the security of their revolution. They sized the land of Loyalists and effectively drove them out if the country. They killed Loyalists, who were their fellow colonists, for their opposition to the revolution. They attempted tirelessly for peaceful transition to independence but the Monarchy refused them and ignored them until they were left with no choice but to begin violent armed revolution. All revolutions are authoritarian in their nature. The American revolutionaries were seizing their power by force and imposing their self actualized authority over the colonies in pursuit of their own economic and social freedoms.

The United States is authoritarian and many of the same ways that socialist states are authoritarian. If you don’t believe me, look at the history of the socialist movement in America. Look at what the state was and still is willing to do to its own citizens for criticizing and organizing against the capitalist and imperialist system that the state runs on.

Are you here to tell me that McCarthyism and the red scare were democratic in their execution? That they were in line with the Free Speech and Free Expression ethos the United States projects? They were not times of political democratic freedom. Even in recent times you have leaders of movements critical of the state being killed for their political positions. Students killed during the anti-war movement in the 60s and 70s. Anti-War activists driven out of their employment and careers over their opposition to the state and it’s actions in Vietnam.

So what do you call authoritarianism under capitalism then? Democracy??

I want to make a super virus!

Crash your whole computer system and reduce you to papyrus!

Love Deltron 3030 ♥️

We wouldn’t have survived to become the species we are now if those were our “natural” traits. We’re socal creatures, we live in communities. If anything, we are now living in the least compatible societal arrangement for our species. There is evidence that even neanderthals would care for the their eldery and dead.

Greed, in my opinion is a “modern” notion designed to propagandize and misdirect away from the true culprit of our time, and that is motive. Specifically, profit motive. Greed, much like laziness, is a made up notion by the capitalist class. It implies that you can be altruistic and “fair” with your capitalistic desires, and anyone who isn’t doing as such is simply morally bankrupt.

It allows people to ascribe a personal moral failing to the capitalist, instead of analyzing the underlying motivations and structures that govern their behavior. It means people can, as temporarily embarrassed millionaires, imagine that they would never make that kind of moral failing given the opportunity.

Except, they would make that same “mistake” if they were ever given the opportunity, because capitalism demands it.

Oh god it looks like it’s just a top post cross post bot from reddit? Yuck.

If your not trying to recover data off anything with a hard drive your doing it wrong!

He would need to run some SQL scripts to drop the content I think. I could be wrong though.

But as a rule, I’d defederate from ANYTHING NSFW image wise. Text NSFW is probably fine.

The liability is way to high.

Shadow Bans are bans that are not announced or visible to the end user. None of the content they post is visible to other users on the site. So to the banned user, everything seems normal except they get not engagement with their posts.

So I’m unsure yet but, it looks like you can make a POST request to an API endpoint to boost and it’ll just, accept it? No authentication? I’m still pokeing around.

Oh this is very cool
