That’s what I did, because I didn’t know anything about how it works when I signed up. I guess the big ones near the top of the instance list are more random than smaller ones (reversion to the mean), but even there, mander.xyz users tone seems different to me.

Wow, thanks, such a helpful response! I’ll try the web interface for instance blocking. Another sus instance I saw today was blahaj.zone. To clarify, I also didn’t see fascist stuff, I just mentioned it because I felt it important to point out that I also don’t want to see that kind of content. I guess I saw one too many “so you are not a fan of Stalin, you must be fascist” comment today.

Thanks for the link, this was a good read. OP’s title still sucks.

I still think there are different standards for filler words during conversations and titles in writing. In this case, the post title is simply a lie. For example:

Title: Florida Man Actually has Three Legs.
Content: guy’s got such a big dick, he’s practically a tripod.

In this case, that’s a misleading title.

Edit: I also wanted to add that a title is parsed on its own, without context. Of course, “literally” can mean “not literally”, but one needs context to figure that out. In this title, such context is not there.

I don’t think OP knows what literally means. The wsj did not ask the question in the title. It asked a different question.

Cool, thanks! What do you use for RSS?

I don’t know the answer, just commenting because I’m curious. Can you just create a second tailnet and add your server but not your own devices to it?

Ffs if birth rates went up in the third reich then people should be thankful for fascism and hitler? Was west germany a poor amd depressing dictatorship and east germany a free and prosperous country, or the other way around? Blocking.

Ok there is too much crazy stuff there for me to take you seriously. If you’re a person and this is your genuine position, that makes me sad. People learn nothing from history.

That’s not a very good example, because good and bad people drink water, pretty much everyone does. Here is a list of communist states:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_socialist_states_(communism)

I’d say that all of these sucked to live in. There are definitely states that treat their citizens better than these. If something always leads to death and suffering, maybe we can conclude that it’s a bad idea. Communists are not “associated with“ communism, they are communism.

How can you equate “seize means of production” and “class warfare” (things in OP) with 40 hour work week (not in OP)? Are Stalin’s and Maos bloody dictatorships that terrorized, tortured and murdered millions, hundreds of millions of people, examples of progress of society? I can list a bunch of countries that are relatively free, and have high rates of literacy and strong worker protections, that are not communist (pretty much any developed democracy since the late 20th century). There is literally no communist country where people are acceptably free and don’t or didn’t want to get out to flee to one of the not communist countries. I hate the “its such a nice ideology just every single fucking time its followers came to power they had to torture and murder their fellow citizens to stay there”. You know, “seize means of production” in practice means that the government, or people who have friends in the government, go and take away other peoples shit: farmers, small businesses, house, a pig, anything they want, and all they need to do is call the victim a bourgeois or capitalist. This is how it worked in practice in every socialist/communist country that ever existed, lmk if you have a good counter example. And guess what: people get hurt in the process, lives are ruined.
Class warfare. Who the fuck wants to live in a society where everyone is a worker? Economically, a worker means someone who doesn’t own anything other than their future ability to work and earn wages. Every society that looks remotely liveable has a strong middle class: people own real estate, business, investments. These would all be crimes in communism. And now you can explain me that no, that’s not what’s so fucking cool about communism, I still get to keep my house and retirement fund, just have to work less and get more free stuff from the government because the only reason I wasn’t getting those things previously is that they didn’t realize how cool communism is. btw I don’t want to read a bit about the ideology, I was born in a communist country and have a pretty good idea what it was like for people living in that system. Edit: removed an offensive statement.

I will never understand how people casually throw around communist talking points like these were not the talking points of some of the worst, most oppressive regimes ever. And the same people then are very vocally outraged when they hear fascist slogens (rightly so, but why is communist shit cool?).

The dialogues were also special: characters were mostly talking about mundane subjects but in a unique and very entertaining way. Who else can make a Hollywood movie scene with John Travolta telling that the most interesting thing about a foreign country where they speak a foreign language is that they use different words for fast food menu items. It was unexpected and hilarious at the time.

Fertility is simply a concept in population dynamics for quantifying the number of offsprings. That’s what it is called, there is no covert agenda there.

Perplexity and grammarly

It’s not like a user asked vanilla ChatGPT random questions and took the responses for medical advice. This is a service openAI marketed specifically for medical use. If we want to keep up the pretense that consumer protection laws and regulations exist and matter, this is a big deal, and the blame is on the vendor, not on the user.

Is there a self hosted or free tier? I’m tired of trying new project management tools that all do the same and have a per seat subscription. It must be crazy cheap to run the backend so I don’t understand why are these tools expensive.

And what is important? The DNC pushing nationally unelectable, unpopular candidates down the throat of the electorate during primaries, so they can lose the general election to the republican candidate like Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Kamala Harris in 2024?

So was this, like an hour ago, 10%? Must be based on sound cost-benefit analysis…

Op, I don’t think you had an active subscription. You can’t expect to get ad free music at no cost to you and the artist be paid. You got to pick 2 of the 3. Edit: to also add an answer: any alternatives to Word or Adobe Acrobat, unfortunately.
