We don’t want the old-school projects where software was ready but not delivered until a bible of doco was typeset, printed and bound.

I miss those days. That bible of documentation was usually the means to have the others, i.e. the customer or other teams using your software, be able to do their work in that software. And I feel that by delivering software without extensive documentation you are extending your agile way of working to the customer. When does agile stop and actually deliver every component meant to be delivered?

This comments speaks to me. From day one you could see the problems with agile and my gods, if you dared to push back you were ‘not cooperating with the team’ and other BS like that.

I have yet to see an agile/scrum way of working that does not devolve in waterfall within 5 nano seconds. Funniest was the IT team that needed to support about 10 other teams (developers). Good luck in getting agile with that while diving into a tunnel where 10 teams start pulling your resources on the fly. The IT team was on the end (they tried like 5 times to enforce agile on us) absolved from using agile as the complete project would come to a stand still in a day if we followed the agile principle.

I don’t. They got sent and went to another sovereign country and started a war. These same soldiers you have empathy for will gladly shoot Ukraine soldiers and civilians.

How many of these ‘non-psychopath’ soldiers have killed innocent people in Ukraine?
They all went and they all are complicit to the murder, torture and rape of Ukraine. They can go suck on a grenade while the pin is out. No sympathy for these fascists.

Glad you recognize this as a war instead of the russian deceptive ‘special operation’.

And there would be no war if russia did not start one. Lets keep the facts real.

So when you see a state fail when pulled into a war by a fascistic country, led by a psychopath dictator who has bigger desires of waging more wars after Ukraine falls, your proposal is to just let them go and fail? Do you need a history lesson on what happened a couple of decades ago when that type of appeasement went very wrong?

Well, I browsed that cum sock of a channel of his for about 30 seconds and was thoroughly disgusted. What surprised me though, as I was not aware, is that Kelsey Grammer is supporting that piece of excrement. Sigh, another delusional actor who seems to have lost his marbles.

Yeah, and it’s the blocking of the complete user base of an instance that’s what I truly want and seek.

The app is fine but I’m also using webui so I would love the feature to be at the ‘root’ of Lemmy instead only in 1 app.
I read elsewhere that v0.19 will not bring complete instance blocking. Communities will be blocked but not the users, and it is the users and everything about an instance I want to block. I want to be able to black hole an entire instance, as if it and its users do not exist at all. I’m getting conflicting messages on the ability of v0.19 by several people and I am lost on what it will actually bring. I guess we will have to wait and see once v0.19 is out and we start using it.

How do you, as a user, block an entire instance? As far as I know only an owner of an instance can block (de-federate) another instance. I would love being able to block an instance as a user though.

If this is true then I indeed misunderstood v0.19

All I want is to be able to block an instance completely as a user. How hard can this be? I really had my hopes up for v0.19. This needs to be built into Lemmy asap because the idiocy of some instances is getting on my nerves hardcore. I mean, why not go back to reddit if I have to take shit anyway? At least I know the communities are larger over there and if I need to suffer bullshit then by all means, I’ll suffer over there. This is not good for Lemmy tbh…

Sure, however, Lewis claimed a while ago he did no such thing and focused 100% on Mercedes and getting the contract ironed out. So he lied and this is going to make for some awkward moments in the team. Love it.

I see it as ‘payback’ for shitting on Max and RB performances this year. Remember the shittalking Mercedes/Toto/Lewis did at Monza? Yeah, those morons had it coming and I love it. This revelation will make some people uncomfortable at Mercedes. Some say it is normal practice (reaching out to other teams) and there is nothing special going on, and I would agree with that normally, if it weren’t for the fact that Lewis claimed a while ago he did no such thing and focused 100% on Mercedes and getting the contract ironed out. Now Horner saw an opportunity to shit on the Mercedes team with this new information. Lewis did contact other teams (Ferrari for example, perhaps others as well?).
What will this accomplish you may ask? Nothing, absolutely nothing…other then making the next few meetings at Mercedes a bit uncomfortable :-)

And neither am I impressed by Lewis’s driving for 2 years now. He will not become WC of course, he needs a better car for that, no shame or weird things here. But, if you look at Max when Mercedes dominated he was able to make races count, do incredible drives and the occasional win. No WC contender of course, just like Mercedes isn’t atm, but he did win his race once or twice. 2 years without anything noticable, no exiting or special drive, no wins, anonymous. Even failed to get to Q3 on occasion. Yeah, color me unimpressed by Lewis and his driving.

And do not get me started on the revelation which we are witnessing on how bad Toto actually is as a Team Principal. Shockingly bad actually. His behavior, his lack of success and lack of direction on the team. He had years of success due to an insanely good engine and a driver who could utilize that situation. I applaud that actually, it is such a beast of an engine in those success years. Now that this advantage is gone, Toto is lost. Everything fails, for years, under his leadership. Again, color me unimpressed…

You really do not give 1 shit about children do you? You keep telling people that this is what you get if you start a war. Did the children start that war? No. Then why keep bombing them?

Even if Hitler himself hides under a hospital or school, you do not bomb that place. It really is that simple. The fact that you are a-ok with bombing children speaks volumes about your character.

Surprise me with insights on why you think it is ok to bomb children and please do not involve hamas, terrorists or some form of anti-antisemitism. Keep focused on bombs on the heads of 5 year old, babies and justify that without involving adults that these children have zero control over.

Moms For Hitler

I wish people would use the right name

He probably thinks QC is a bit ‘woke’ and thus dismisses it out of hand.

Was it the fluoride that gave it away?

This is why I will refer to them as “Moms For Hitler”

You did not have to be keeping score

Ok Seb, we get it with the bees already! 😀

Ditto! 🤞

Then I think I fail to see what you mean and want.

The PR is meant to be able to block an instance as a user but you seem to think that it is about finding an instance and blocking that? I see no real purpose in such a feature tbh.
This is not how I understood the new feature but again, I could be wrong.

I will await the new feature and hope and pray it is what I think it is.
