If he was innocent, they would release the report. There’s only one reason why it would ever be up for debate.

All the more reason it’s important to fight back now.

I’m not sure how FlyingSquid is the bad guy here when Blackbeard is the one going around DMing Lemmy users off-platform about their reports. If you disagree with the reported content, then dismiss it. Blackbeard is the one who instigated this by opening a DM with FlyingSquid to begin with. Blackbeard doesn’t understand how to be a mod, it seems.

This thread is garbage. OP is bad and should feel bad.

Being able to open a thread and pick up OP’s avatar off the ground and watch his little legs kick.

So you didn’t read it, got it.

Faster?

Well, the ADL has plenty of details about how and why Pepe is used as a hate symbol, but you already said “Fuck ADL”, so I guess you’re probably not going to be receptive to their explanation.

He’s the one I’ve seen with the “if you ignore the thing I don’t recognize as a hate symbol, there’s hardly anything” argument.

Since OP is using it for work, it sounds like that isn’t an option.

Okay, Asmongold.

You don’t say?

We’ve got four more years of these bigots being emboldened. I expect that these sorts of attacks are going to become a lot more commonplace, and for there to be little-to-no repercussions. Start arming yourselves.

I wonder if perhaps an older dialect used to pronounce the W. Lots of words have changed spelling or pronunciation over the years, so I’m curious if that might be the case with “two”, too.

For me, I just don’t like having my genitals out when other people are around. It’s not about whether they’re looking or not, it just feels uncomfortable being exposed. Same reason I don’t use public showers at gyms and such.

It does not. Currently, all it does is replace the “PS Remote Play” app you can put on your phone, which is basically just remote desktop for your PS5. Without a PS5, all you have with the Portal is a screen that doesn’t do anything.

This update will allow it to stream games from Sony’s servers, instead of from your own PS5. But it is still limited just to Sony’s platform.

The IM format is meant to be more conversational. Do you tag and categorize the conversations you have with people IRL? Probably (and hopefully) not. That’s the sort of comms that IM is meant for.

Both have their place, IMO. And it’s not like if you can only choose one or the other, anyway.

Sadly, Google and Microsoft are trying their best to lock down email.

What do you mean?

Maybe, but the thing about Mastodon, is that it works even without “Mastodon”. There are a slew of other platforms that work seamlessly with Mastodon. So if Rochko decides to do something you don’t like, you can move to Misskey or Pleroma or any number of other Mastodon-adjacent platforms while losing zero functionality.

What makes this work is ActivityPub as the backbone, as the protocol is open to anybody. ATProto, which Bluesky uses, is basically only used for Bluesky and nothing else. And Bluesky controls both their platform, and the protocol, whereas Mastodon controls only their own platform; the ActivityPub protocol is not owned or controlled by Mastodon in any way.

I sometimes get bouts of insomnia. Usually when it happens, I’m just awake for about 30 hours or so. That’ll happen once or twice a month for me, and I’m pretty sure is just stress-related.

The longest I’ve gone was 75 hours when I was in my early 20s, which was due to a really bad allergic reaction to cedar pollen which kept me from breathing while laying my head down in any position, so I couldn’t fall asleep no matter how hard I tried. I was also running a pretty high fever while this happened. I probably drifted into microsleeps while sitting up a few times during that, but it was absolutely miserable.

I started having really bizarre auditory hallucinations after about the 40-hour mark. I’d hear a crowd of people laughing from behind the walls. Not like a malicious laugh, but like there was a stand-up routine happening in the next room over. Nobody else was home, no TVs were on, and it was like 3am so I knew what I was hearing wasn’t real, but convincing myself of that didn’t make the laughter stop.

I think I slept for about 13 hours straight after that.

Sounds like Nancy needs to get Maced.
