I make plymouth do the verbose mode because it’s cool and hacker-y. Also I like when it says “failed” and I know what failed. For a few weeks I kept having to manually start firewalld and I never would have known otherwise, update seems to have fixed that though.

Tbf, I really only have experience with fedora and thus systemd, so, I like it but I “don’t know what I’m missing” in a sense.

I hear this one too and honestly, it does negatively effect them, they just don’t see it because it feels like it’s always been there. But give them ad-block for a week and then take it away…

“These are not said by the employees, because of the power dynamic where if they say anything I could and would get them fired out of pure pettyness, so they just silently hope I die in a car crash on the way home.”

Ftfy.

With all that said, until things change, for sake of the underpaid employees, please tip just know you don’t have too. If they treat you kindly and respectfully, tip, if not, smallest tip possible.

A’ight, that’s cool at least as long as you tip in the current system but push for change, no prob there. But make no mistake the only reason the employee doesn’t say anything is the power dynamic, they’re thinkin’ it!

He’s suggesting “fuck the worker, it isn’t my problem if they can’t pay rent, they should learn to code.” And somehow that will make the business owner pay them a fair wage and not replace them with a machine or a 16yo kid.

Same, can’t switch off Subbed/Active(or hot idr).

Pee is stored in the gooch, duh. The balls thing is a meme.

Yeah that is annoying as hell. Like I get it if it’s just like “my files are private, I’ll open them if you have shares” but that whole “I need X album FLAC and a $50 baskin robbins gift card and then I might share with you” shit is the lamest thing I’ve ever seen.

Hell half the time I try to post on Jerboa, the app crashes but the comment still posts. Who knows lol.

…all communities named “piracy” are not the same, the full community name technically includes the instance, they are each their own “subreddit.” You could subscribe to all of them if you wish, or to just “the largest one,” but you can think of them as say “lemmyworldpiracy” and “beehawpiracy” and so on, they are just different communities.

It’d be like if two separate 15yo kids ran a fan page for their favorite anime character and expecting them to be identical simply because they are both about Goku, they’re just different “sites” by different people, they just aren’t the same thing simply because they’re about the same topic.

As long as you know your supposed “goal” of “helping” isn’t accomplished and that server now hates you, and the owner you’re opposing got his share and doesn’t even know you exist, do what you wish I suppose.

And that’ll only hurt the poor employee’s efforts to pay rent this month. The employer could care less, and sure you may make them mad enough that you’re the last straw and they quit, but I’d be hard pressed to think you’re magnanimous for it.

You want sewage? You sign up for sewage. Everybody who does, has a week assigned where they must do the necessary maintainance for that utility.

So I’m supposed to learn everything about sewer maintinence before this week, or are we throwing untrained people at critical infrastructure simply because they want to use it? And what then if I also want food, transportation, a computer, cat food, smokeables, drinkables, shelter, etc? Do I have to become an expert in all of those things too and work in those to get food, shelter, etc? Have to churn butter for a week if I want access to the butter store, and make bread for a week to get access to the bread lines, then I can make toast?

Personally I’d prefer if there was some way to make what I make or do what I do, exchange those items or services for some thing with an agreed upon value, which I can in turn take to the store and trade for bread and butter.

Mmmmmm my torrents say otherwise. Can’t stop me! Shit like this is why I torrent unless you’ve got tapes or wax for me.

Brave Little Toaster was such a fucking banger.

And fuck the IOT bullshit!

This is the way imo. I’d personally like to see the culture of the fedi shift more towards self-moderation by users, let the users decide for themselves what individuals, communities, or servers they want or don’t want to see.

Yes, this would mean that you’d be responsible for thinking for yourself, but imo that added slight burden is worth the freedom that is supposedly the reason the fedi exists.

My masto server does this (beyond who defederated us because we don’t wholesale block the same people they block) and it works just fine for me, I just banned the Nazi instance (cause duh), the wolf-gender instance (it’s all they talk about and I’m just not interested, I’m sure they’re fine people), the Loli-art instance (cause duh), and the futa-bot (it’s spam, a lot of it, and I’m not into futa), and I’m gtg, just wish the reactionary instances that I’d be fine with weren’t so cliquey as to ban my instance for allowing it’s users to think for themselves, but c’est la vie.

XMPP (with omemeo) is the classic (and also what FB messenger uses behind the scenes, without omemo), Matrix is the new kid on the block taking over. Both are decentralized sorta like the fediverse (but separate from said fediverse.)

Used to use Signal, but they’re removing SMS support so everyone might as well switch to matrix. Wickr was bought by amazon (and they say they won’t ruin it, riiiight), so that’s out. Idk enough about briar or session, and telegram isn’t as secure as people seem to think.

Not contributing to the debate necessarily, I’d just like to take a moment to say:

Tbf, if you don’t like “Those openly avocating violence and cruelty towards others who are being neither violent or cruel,” then you’ll want to be on an instance that defederates lemmygrad and lemmy.ml. Before the reddit exodus this place was almost entirely genocide denialiasts who support Cuba, China, Russia (incl. the current invasion and simping for the USSR), and who want to literally murder all small business owners and landlords even if they only rent out their spare room or an old townhouse from before they got married for some extra income to help pay for meds in retirement, but no matter, “bourgeoisie.”

The only reason they aren’t so prominent today is the flood drowned them out a bit, they’re still very much here, and they’re no better than the Nazis, and the kicker is they both think they’re the good guys lol.

Edit: Hehe downvotes mean nothing here, but I can see I upset a few of those genocide denialists and that makes me happy.
