ha, theres an entire instance dedicate to this process besides all the github bot scripts… this is nothing new here.

maybe make sure and throw the bot flag so people can filter accordingly

ha, reminds me of my moms 5th wedding. i told her before ceremony… ‘at some point, youre the problem’.

its kinda why they helped install him

its about heavy regulation and preventing regulatory capture… but corps have deep pockets and people are weak.

its always only a matter of time until people are voting against their own best interests.

deep down were just animals programmed to procreate

all that pron does not surprise me

kinda smells like truenas with its datasets

therapists love a good jump-scare

i remember this video of an indian guy who suffers a brain aneurysm on camera.

not outside the realm of possibility… just sayin

i feel like you may not really understand how basic the average user is.

for example, most have never even been near people who know what tor is. and as the technical-info proxy for an absurd number of humans the number of people asking me how to be ‘uncensored’ on the internet is zero. its fucking zero.

dont ya have to specify a dns server manually also then, since ur not gettin one automagically?

what were your legitimate reasons?

im sure we all have our own

remember when democracy, freedom of speech, freedom of religion… america was the worlds melting pot where opportunity abounds?

turns out that yeah, none of that was ever real.

buckle up, its going to be a wild, fascism-fueled ride.

mahn thats how i ended up in stardew valley

sick off my ass, bored, and not really being a gamer.

youre gunna need an aussie fireman for that alarm

i spose…

my anecdote;

ive been runnin drives like this for 30 years. ive literally never had a cold storage drive go bad out of the case… mostly because their hourly use rate is kept so incredibly low. even back in the day of very unreliable drives…

they even retain their data better than modern ssds

3 methods for me…

1. (daily) live nas backup (I have 2 of these mirrored for giggles)
2. (90 days) cold, manual copy of nas data to drive stored in pelican case
3. (live) cheap cloud storage of essential data in backblaze encrypted vault (duplicati)

lemmy isnt really an organization. its a platform that is then utilized by hundreds of different operators/groups implementing their own rules against much of the same content. there are many of these platforms that all offer differing capabilities and features while sharing a lot of the same content. this network is what we refer to as the fediverse.

the reddit-like side is the threadiverse and is mimicked by platforms like lemmy.

then there is the twitter-like (microblog) side i call the twitterverse and is mimicked by platforms like mastodon.

then you have platforms that can access both sides of the fediverse like piefed and mbin.

as for censorship…

its the beauty of this network’ if one of those servers goes apeshit people can literally just move their ‘subreddit’ to a different server and tell the og one to fuck right off. this has happened a few times in different ways. users created new subs on other servers and effectively ignored the original, with no one having to make new accounts. it proves the idea… no one person or company can control the content of the fediverse.
