I operate strange new machines all the time. There's usually some kind of instructions or video. Never activate the device without trying to figure it out first, you won't even know what sort of personal protective equipment to wear.

Explains why NYC elected Mamdani with ranked choice voting, then! Any candidate in favor of FPTP wants the right to win.

It appears to me that the meme is complaining about tech breaking laws, not soliciting opinions. In case this needs to be said, I'm using Lemmy because of its ability to resist (legal!) censorship, especially of long-overdue leftist speech.

I wish the average person was as open minded as you're giving them credit.

The former. Being subversive doesn't imply it's bad.

He's a DSA member! I'd call him a DINO if he wasn't evidently reshaping it.

I'll vote third party as soon as the next guy, but if the Democrats decide to run an actually good candidate, then I'm not holding a grudge.

With enough people like Mamdani, we could finally advance beyond a two party system.

Every time someone posts this meme, I feel compelled to add "forums for communists".

The things I like are cheap...

You're doing crypto a favor by keeping it at least 1% still anarchist.

For laypersons: they put all the coins in a box and shake the box.

Honestly I think pretty much anyone could build a better financial system, and more people should try. What we have now is the result of centuries of unchecked power. This monetary policy was created by Richard Nixon and then we adopted a Keynesian rationale post facto. It didn't evolve, it was stolen.

If you've got another idea (including moneyless systems) I'm down to try that too, but what we've got right now is pure garbage, and having no out before the modern era doesn't imply that it's good.

Digital artists and illustrators are abandoning Elon Musk’s blogging platform X (formerly Twitter) over the introduction of a new controversial image-editing feature powered by artificial intelligence (AI). According to reports, the creators claimed that the new tool could be used to modify others’ works without their consent.

One such popular creator championing the boycott is Mu-jik Park, the renowned South Korean artist known by the pen name Boichi. Boichi is the creator of the hit manga series Dr Stone and Sun-Ken Rock.

My understanding of federation is that it's like email. If one server is misbehaving, then they get defederated.

So how come email spam still exists - why don't spammer domains get defederated? It seems like we've got the worst of both worlds, where it's hard to get your emails relayed when you run a small email server, and easy to get them relayed if you're a spammer.

Is there anything about Lemmy's architecture that will prevent this problem?
