Thomas Graham in Tijuana and Ruaridh Nicoll in Havana

Sheinbaum’s comments came after a week of increasing threats from Washington. US officials briefed that gunboats could be deployed off Cuba, and said efforts were under way to find Cuban ministers prepared to collaborate with the US.

Speaking on Wednesday, Mike Hammer, the US chargé d’affaires in Havana, said: “The Cubans have complained for years about a ‘blockade’, but now there is going to be a real blockade.”

Cheese Puffs—Wikipedia.

"Cheese puffs were invented independently by two companies in the United States during the 1930s. According to one account, Edward Wilson noticed strings of puffed corn oozing from flaking machines in the mid 1930s at the Flakall Corporation of Beloit, Wisconsin, a producer of flaked, partially cooked animal feed. He experimented and developed it into a snack. Clarence J. Schwebke applied for an improved extruder patent in 1939 and the product, named Korn Kurls, was commercialized in 1946 by the Adams Corporation, formed by one of the founders of Flakall and his sons. Adams was later bought by Beatrice Foods.

Another version was created by the Elmer Candy Corporation of New Orleans, Louisiana in 1936."

This is a windows admin, not a Linux admin :P

[-] cm0002@lemmy.zip 18 points 2 months ago

Nutomic is like the second in command and word around the cooler is hes the one that does the bulk of the coding work. They definitely have shared values, with the exception of his transphobia.

He doesn't do a whole lot as far as admining .ml goes so isn't featured as much or ever actually now that I think about it

[-] cm0002@lemmy.zip 26 points 2 months ago

Fair, though it's definitely not automated. Heavy posting yes, automated no.

The absolute irony here is that I actually considered this perspective weeks ago, but I figured since you can block a user in 3 clicks or less straight from the encountered post the burden of anyone out there blocking me would be low and nbd. Ig not lmao

[-] cm0002@lemmy.zip 38 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

For other people blocking me, I don't really care if they do or don't, it's just unfortunate unintended side effects for the actual reasons below. If I was really ban/block evading I'd just make up an entirely new user name each time, it would be FAR more effective and longer lasting.

  • Shopping for a new home instance

  • Exploring the Threadiverse from different perspectives (the "hot" feed you see can vary quite a bit depending on the instance you're on lol)

  • Learning that the bot intended to better interconnect instance comms may not be doing as good of a job

  • Interconnecting wayward or much smaller instances, a couple of them are missing even the big comms, one I was on the other day I needed to manual have it federate with every comm I posted to

  • For the creation of comms on fitting instances or just among a regular rotation of general instances so I'm not making a whole bunch on any one instance

  • Prevention of a reoccurrence of my imposter problem

Trolling .ml (or Why am I cross-posting .ml content?

I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don't want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some niche comms.

Megathread on the issue

Some highlights from the link:

"Don't worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167

"See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn't count!!" ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342

.ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068

"NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035

General negative sentiment to other instances who haven't "seen the way" yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510

"If you don't support Russia then you just don't understand geopolitics" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can't even put them all here because this comment would be really long.

I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda

On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like "Lemmy? Isn't that the place with a bunch of tankies?" Or "Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left". The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.

All of my crossposts should show in the cross post menu, OC is additionally tagged with the username

Most are, but I have had an impersonation problem in the past, so there are a few imposter accounts mixed in there. This is another reason to have these accounts, prevention of it happening again.

The popular meme is your partner asking you "Would you still love me if I was a worm?"

This comic is a joke on the continuation of that meme and is why the bouncer is crying

So that they can make a better user experience, customized to their brand, and in turn be able to cast the widest possible "customer net". They could also be using custom openVPN software so they can do more advanced protection layers, tailored to their service ofc
