Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy's massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It's been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let's say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they're what's colloquially referred to as...

We found the thin skinned tankie.

I simply forgot Gen X existed

We're used to it.

You're like the butt of UDP joke.

Now that DuckDuckGo is out. Give me your search prompts and I'll answer them as best I can. That includes images (based on what I have saved on my PC). So what is it you wish to know or see?

Edit: Due to popular demand FatTony Search servers are down for the time being. but has gone open source just in time (Yes that's how it works 😡) . You may now get responses from other users. Servers will be back up some time later.

So it will get here with fusion, flying cars, hydrogen cars, and jetpacks?

just slow erosion of secular human rights in favor of christian fascism.

Yeah but for the majority of federal crimes you're probably comparing these sentences to drug offender sentences which are much harsher because of the seriousness of the offense.

/s before crucifixion; drug sentences are ridiculous and these traitors getting anything less than a felony disqualifying them from participating in the system they tried to break is madness.

Believing someone when they say the money in the cash register is rightly yours and should be taken by force does not mean you get a pass when you rob a gas station.

stringere ,

Huh? What did I miss?

associating crack with black people

Crack did not exist in at that time. The CIA didn't flood black communities with it until the 80s.

They ran out of countries to sucker and rope-a-dope, moved on to directly fleecing the proletariat.

That was their implication: the ES&S machines were compromised supported by the fact that after switching to Dominion in 2018 the state was no longer solid red in 2020.

I cannot claim a deeper knowledge either way on this, only wanted to clarify that for you.

Jeff is doing ok.

Also, hello Piped bot.

It's amazing republicans even show their true face in public with all the persecution they endure.

They should hide themselves better or people might identify them as conservatives.

Someone else posted my same reply in response to another comment:

inFamous Second Son did this well. Deslin, the main character is from the Akomish tribe and ... oh hell I just came in from rebuilding a retaining wall outside and that's all I got.

Deskin, Akomish, good game, well written character.

But how do you feel about it so far?

He fired at a group of dudes in civilian clothes driving regular vehicles telling him they were cops.
Guess what more than tripled from 2019 to 2021 and continues? Car jackings and armed car jackings.

They allege this was for a seatbelt. Weapons drawn for a simple traffic stop?

Plainclothes officers, especially, should not be approaching people with a weapon drawn.

I was a flight attendant with TWA, so take this as what it is: advice from 20+ years ago.

If all the overhead bins are full they will gate check your bag; tag it, send it down the external stairs of the jetway, and it will go in the belly with the other checked luggage.

stringere ,

If their "carry on" does not meet the size restrictions they absolutely will gate check it at cost. That's their fault not listening or reading bag size restrictions orbwillfully ignoring them in hopes of forcing an oversize bag into the overhead.

stringere ,

You are not alone.

They also kidnap baby seals and rape them to death, but cutely.

See how deeply entrenched scarcity mentality is in every aspect of our lives.

You forgot groceries, mandatory insurance, and utilities...

No, they can't.

$1,200 US entry price might seem a bit steep for a "fancy game controller/keyboard" to the able-bodied, but the QOL improvements for disabled people easily eclipse that.

barred him from doing business in New York for three years

Where is Truth Social incorporated? If Truth Social has an IPO would sale of stocks be considered "doing business" in NY? Genuinely asking if stock IPOs count as "doing business".

Edit:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_Social
Founded by Trump who would also be a beneficiary of any business transactions for Truth Social(?)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Media_%26_Technology_Group

Owned by TMTG which lists two key people:
Donald Trump (Chairman)
Devin Nunes (CEO)

Does being chairman count?

"Doing business in NYC" sounds so nebulous. I want it to be a golden shower over all his business dealings. For me to enjoy seeing this scumbag lose all of his ill gotten gains so publicly is not my proudest moment as a human being but I am popping popcorn and getting snacks ready to kick back and relish the schadenfreude.

Good bot

They isolate the chemicals they want to test for smell through extraction/synthesis/purification and then have a professional smeller identify what scents that particular chemical matches.

They can also compare the isolated chemicals to known scents containing the same chemicals.

The pads from the teenagers’ armpits had two steroids present – 5alphaandrost-16-en-3-one and 5alphaandrost-16-en-3alpha-ol – which smell of sweat, urine, musk and sandalwood. They also had higher levels of six carboxylic acids, which give off unattractive smells including cheese, goat and wax.

What this means is that two steroids (5alphaandrost-...) found in teens' armpits are also found in sweat, urine, musk, and sandalwood. The 6 carbolic acids are also found in cheese, goats, and wax.

So to answer your question: not subjective.
This is objective, reproducible evidence.

We have catalogued many chemicals and what they smell or taste like. You can thank the perfume industry for a good portion of the smell based science. A lot of flavor based research exists, as well. Unfortunately some of that research was done for sick purposes like finding out how to engender craving or how to make the body ignore chemical signals that it is full and it is time to stop earing. But I digress.

stringere ,

Yes.

we are seeing multidimensional cross sections of them, which give them such an otherworldly appearance

Accurate or not I've always liked Vonnegut's description of the viewpoint from the 4th dimension to the 3rd:

“The creatures can see where each star has been and where it is going, so that the heavens are filled with rarefied, luminous spaghetti. And Tralfamadorians don’t see human beings as two-legged creatures, either. They see them as great millepedes—“with babies’ legs at one end and old people’s legs at the other,” says Billy Pilgrim.

And computer networking, especially the ability to remote into a system and make changes or deliver updates en masse, was nowhere near as robust as it is today meaning a lot of those fixes were done manually.

stringere ,

Thank you for speaking truth to bullshit.

stringere ,

That's because the meme references a time earlier than the 1980s.
1950-1970 or so would be the bubble of time where this was still possible.
Union declines up to 1980 aided Reagonomics in thoroughly fucking everyone from middle incomes down.

Stew's great but I can't see me making it into work the next day.

The frequency and duration of ad breaks is beginning to make me feel like I’m in that black mirror episode where they had to pay to stop ads from constantly playing. ( kbin.social )

I definitely consume too much dystopian content to be a fair dystopian barometer, but the sheer amount of ads being pushed my way is starting to make me feel legitimately anxious. It feels like a techno-dystopia where all of the neat and artistic elements have been extracted and then ground into dust for our corporate overlords....

Oh hello fellow St. Louisan.
