Pineapple on pizza is an abomimation.

Orrrr we introduce laws that stop Big Tech from nicking whatever they want unless explicitly licenced for that purpose - opt in.

I apologise and will start the actual petition forthwith.

It’s not real, unfortunately.

After far too many years of Tory misrule, it definitely feels like the situation is turning around. Although the Labour manifesto was pretty weak sauce and their first 100 days were rocky, the government are starting to do interesting things (like renationalisation and devolution) that makes me start to feel hopeful again.

This is the right answer.

Usually sick squid.

Ooo 'eck everyone, look busy!

She got a suspended sentence but the country’s gratitude.

Turkey is explicitly backing the Syrian Natonal Army (not the actual Syrian Army or the Free Syrian Army - splitters!) but it’s understood that they were also backing HTS to some extent (although not openly as they are still a proscribed organisation in a lot of western countries) and it was Turkey that greenlit the recent big push as their negotiations with Assad were going nowhere. So, while the West have been scrambling for some influence in Syria (and Russia and Iran have lost their’s), Turkey has been left as the main puller of strings in Syria. Their main concern is the Kurds and they were attacking them within a day or two of Assad falling.

It’s the final part of a trilogy - they’re going to turn everything up a notch. More danger, more explosions, more deaths and a shock ending that leaves the door open to a sequel trilogy (or it reveals that this was all a Handmaid’s Tale prequel).

Yeah, that’s a serious non-statement that basically says “we’ve heard you (so stop complaining) and might make some changes or we might not.”

I think the problem is that their systems were right to flag up those accounts but what you actually do about them is tricky. They should really investigate to ensure that these are legitimate users but I presume the bulk of moderation is automated and checking the validity of the accounts is hard to do and would require time and resources devoted to it. So they may just feel that locking the accounts is the best approach, for them, anyway.

In their Nov. 17 response, Bluesky explained that certain behaviors, such as gaining a large following in a short amount of time, could trigger automated spam filters, leading to account labels or removals.

I don’t know if they are scams (I’ve not seen evidence either way) but it’s very spammy behaviour - I’ve been followed by a couple of such accounts, despite not posting anything on there, (so I blocked them) and have seen a number of others get cross-posted that followed the exact same pattern of throwing out tens of thousands of follows but only promoting a GoFundMe page. I can’t really blame Bluesky as it looks like suspicious activity, which would set off alarm bells if they did that on here.

You do know you can go into another room and read a book if your mum wants to watch her dancing show?

I saw some of those accounts and they looked like a scam. I’d seriously consider banning them on Lemmy if they popped up on my radar.

My Dad was taught in a school run by Jesuits - he learned a similar lesson.

We’re usually somewhere around the top 20. I think we’re currently 21st by user numbers, 22nd by MAU. I’d usually class us as medium-sized, but as l.w is as large as everyone else combined you can really only class them as large.

And, don’t forget, utterly pointless.

See you at the end.

Meanwhile in Catholic school, we did an entire year on the Gospel of John. Couldn’t ask for a better way to convert everyone to atheism.
