Anybody who brags about their good story is asking to turn it into a bad story.

Are Texans more religious than people in other states?

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

— Mark Twain

Most Americans don't even want to change the system yet, even with everything happening. They're happy about it and are just lying. It's absurd to expect one sane person in a sea of temporarily embarrassed billionaires to simply change the system instead of doing whatever they can to survive.

They need to pay rent today, while organizing for tomorrow. There's no shame in begging if you're in that desperate a situation.

The getting fired part is important

Why should they have to work for somebody else if they don't want to? If I'm single and looking at getting paid below the poverty level, then my head is not above water.

We're the rightful landlords, getting paid less than the sum of all rents.

You don't think an anarchist society would have any mechanism to stop people from driving dangerously?

I think this is fair. It's reasonable to require a stowed phone, and we don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy while driving our cars. No essential liberty is being violated.

So anyhow my wife, kids, and me all have different last names. Complicated hippie stuff yada yada.

At first, my dad was all disappointed the family name ends with me.

Fast forward fifteen years. My dad discovers that our family changed their names when they moved to the "old" (middle?) country 100+ years ago, to assimilate there. They just didn't anglicize the name when we moved here.

TL;DR: all names are just made up

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?
