I think my blocklist is about 1/3 spam, 1/3 hatespeach, blatent disinformation and promoting genocide, and 1/3 untagged nsfw. Its a couple dozen users right now.
On my old account it was hundreds (almost all hate-speech, disinformation, and promoting genocide), but Hexbear has been defederated and I’ve givien up and blocked .ml so I don’t run into much of that anymore.
He chews on everything - paper bags? Food. Our wooden furnature? Tasty! The metal folding chairs? Yum!
This same cat also breifly learned to turn off the internet and force us out when we were being too boring (such as when trying to fall asleep). We started locking him in a room overnight for a little while, and he seemed to forget how after that, luckily.
Depends on the context, and how serious and violent the Nazi. If they’re just an isolated idiot who isn’t politically active and isn’t stupid or thick-headed enough to actually follow through on their claimed beliefs, then violence isn’t really justified. They’re an idiot, but not a threat. The problem is with anymore more dedicated or crazy than that. Past that point, you immediately get to people who want to murder or enslave hundreds of millions. Thats not hyperbolic, that’s literally the goal of Nazi beliefs, and a logical extention of almost every belief that stems out of it or is adjacent to it. In theory, yes, it’d be nice to be able to talk down people like this, or use existing systems of power to force them to places where there isn’t a risk of them trying to murder or enslave people, but unfortunately, when you’re talking about groups who don’t respect human lives, the law, or anyone but their designated, arbitrary in-group, then those aren’t always viable means. This is esspecially true if that person is already in a potition of power. Basically, if someone wants to kill you, you can’t always wait for them to successfully aquire the means to do so before acting. This isn’t hyperbole or metaphor, this is literally what we’re talking about here. The problem is in drawing a line of who is an actual threat, and if there are other means to “disarm” them.
I mean, he’s not asking for help rooting directly, or for people to feed him instructions on every one of these devices. His question is intentionally left open for any pointers people can give, from a “I rooted the Samsung and its pretty easy to do”, to links to other webpages (which are exactly the sort of resource someone would have bookmarked while also being a nightmare to find on Google), to -yes- full step by step instructions for those willing to provide. He’s asking for direction, not demanding someone do the work for him.
The Dota Internationals are running all week with the finals starting Saturday, and its looking very interesting this year, including an unusually promising NA team.
I think its just down to the lack of users, and esspecially lack of creators. There just isn’t many people who care enough about a subject to write multiple paragraphs on it, nonetheless to an audience of half-a-dozen users, who likely also have an extreme aversion to monitization of said content given Lemmy’s culture. For most users, there isn’t even karma to act as an incentive to post.
Can I counter this request by asking for more 3D?
I also want more text though, esspecially if that text is also 3D.
Allow me to collect Vietnamese đồng.
Waking up early. Also the harest part of my work - trying to complete complex work while I can barely stay awake.
Just Reddit. Its where basically all the content that matters to me is, as none of those communities have migrated over to Lemmy (or anywhere else, as best as I can tell) so I’m stuck with Reddit as my primary social media.
A) flashy, loud, snippy content that works on people with no attention span or who are easily amused like kids (and annoys everyone else)
And B) clickbait-type, over-the-top content and games that no one else does - the sorts of things that, even if not high-brow, are still interesting. For example, blowing up a Lambrogini appealing to the action-movie lizard-brain, or a giant game of hide and seek appealing to the sort of person who daydreams about how to survive a zombie apocalypse.
Basically, its the peak of broad-appeal, low-brow, high effort/production value media.
This is whats keeping me from full-committing to Lemmy. I get most of my news from other sources, and I’m not a Linux user or IT specalist, so theres really not much content here for me. The communities on Reddit I was most involved in were mostly for specific games or niche areas within gaming like VR, or for acedemic topics and discussions like history. Here on Lemmy, theres is effectively none of that aside from some history memes largely reposted from Reddit by a few very dedicated users (although thank you to those users). Even really large games like Dota, and CS, both of which lend themselves well to sharing content, discussion, and general lifestyle adoption of the game have nothing here on Lemmy, nonetheless single-player games like Half-Life.
Maybe an immitation of a military uniform top? Makes you look like someone who worships the military, but not enough to actually join, and who also doesn’t really respect the uniform or its implications. Thats cringy to basically anyone who looks at it, whether they like the military or hate it, almost anywhere the the world, but also still benign enough wear in public.
In your Lemmy settings (probably need to use the web UI) there should be an option to select your languages. Lemmy will filter out content not marked as your language. Unfortunately, a lot of content is left without a language specified (AKA “undefined”) so unless you want to filter out much of the content you do want, you’re stuck manually blocking a lot still.
I’m using a yellow-orange. I’ve themed everything to Half-Life’s Combine propaganda, so that fits even if I normally wouldn’t be a fan of the colour, not to mention that its easier on the eyes at night.
Some sort of built-in system for checking for reposts. As is, Lemmy’s search is a lot more limitted for that sort of thing, so I always feel anxious making a post, worried that I’m just going to repost something recent, and unintentionally spam the community.
I know this will improve if Lemmy grows, but at least personally, this is the main reason I don’t spend much time on Lemmy relative to Reddit. I’ve tried posting some, but I’d need to write a bot to even maintain the base level of activity for the communities I follow on Reddit (IE major game updates, new TV show episodes). Don’t get me wrong, I’m working on a web scraper for exactly that, but even then, the discussion is what makes these communities, so Im not expecting much.
Far too coherent. There isn’t even any random tangents.
Better than early CS:GO levels, but not as good as late, official CS:GO levels. That said, part of that is for performance and functionality sake, given that I wantted to leave the play area as clear as possible.
