I tried the app for a few hours. NSFW content is indeed expensive but the upsell strategy is that you recieve a flirty or horny message and then another message you have to pay to see.

Oh no! I eat so many skittles

I mean sure but wouldn’t that require running Windows in a VM or giving out the original webcam feed?

A pronoun is a good shorthand for identifying someone in common speech.

IANAL but I think that in itself would get thrown out. I remember from my media law class that after so many jokes about Fox News on the Simpsons, they sued Fox Entertainment and the rolling in the case was essentially “You can’t sue yourself”

Hmmm… All of these are equally strong. Almost as though OP is surrounded by these hotspots. 🤔

I mean they’re pretty lenient. Obviously I can’t link to removed tweets but the infamous Ben Shapiro “Arabs bomb crap and live in open sewage” tweet was left up. We can deduce that whatever’s taken down is more explicitly racist than that

I think where he goes wrong is that he seems to indicate that he thinks there is a solution, that will allow gigantic monolithic social media platforms with millions of billions of users to exist with no tension about moderation policies and free speech limits,

I didn’t get this impression at all.

Pronounced “New Nix”?

Holy fuck, obviously Russia isn’t going to try and single-handedly take on all of NATO. They’d have to back off which is why the US is sending weapons instead of deescalation, because “defense” and weapons is one of the biggest drivers of the US economy.

I was fired for being late to a morning stand-up

Did you read the part I quoted? There’s a lot that could be done to disable the Russian government instead of just trying to prolong the war.

Actually, what am I saying? It’s not like you’ve intervened. You haven’t established a no-fly zone, and you’re certainly not going to let Ukraine into NATO. The most you’ve done is send weapons, which only prolongs this. So maybe you do love it?

TRUE. Can we stop pretending like weapons will fucking solve this?

I honestly think I found it on Hacker News and joined out of curiosity. Stayed out of spite when people on the post had their hot takes on the politics.

I will say what we did, although heads up I was fired from the job, was create a Discord. I set up a simple form that allowed someone to request an invite to their email, so long as it appears in the employee directory. this let us complain about any part of the job so long as it wasn’t each other, with no management present.

I think one or two of my work inbox rules are easily in the 1minute - 5/day category. Inbox rules are super easy but incredibly effective.

From my understanding, they don’t put the content itself on the blockchain but a plaintext permalink. I could be wrong, but since every decentralized node has a full copy of everything on the blockchain it’s only feasible to have tiny bits of text.

Wait so he MADE this??? Next time Elon tweets anything about the “grind” I want him to be reminded he spent time on this.

I hear this type of thinking all the time. “COMMERCIAL PRODUCT has made an unpopular decision now users will flock to LIBRE PRODUCT” It usually only produces a small dent in marketshare that slowly comes back to the commercial product. If one’s been with Reddit this long, almost always the annoyance of everything being different at Lemmy is greater than the annoyance with whatever decision.

On a hunch… Reddit is far more tolerant of right leaning views than this instance of Lemmy. If I recall correctly, the creators have explicitly said they’d rather have strict moderation than a wide userbase. It’s supposed to be part of the appeal.
