Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Defederation is just another form of censorshipEnglish
20·2 years agoBecause this is not censorship. You’re free to browse any defederated community. You’re not censored, they’re not censored. All the content is perfectly viewable on the fediverse.
Go join another instance. You can’t enter somebody else’s house and complain about how they don’t want to invite the neighbor over as well. That’s not censorship. Go to the neighbors house if you want to hang out with them.
But you’ve been explained this multiple times, so I’ll leave it at this. Ignorance is not bliss.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL kbin is named after the instance "karab.in" which is named after a Polish rifle called a karabine gun.English
4·2 years agoNowhere in that link does it say what you’re saying. Kbin was not named after the instance, but sbin. The instance is named after the gun because apparently it sounds nice in Polish.
Literally the first comment in the thread you linked sorted by Hot has a direct quote from the dev which contradicts your title.

12·2 years agoTo the surprise of nobody. Why try to defend the indefensible when you can just be racist instead.

If you’re not carrying cooked spaghetti in your pocket I don’t trust you.
I hope we can replace him. I wanted Garcia to win. Eric Adams is a fool.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where can I find the old school plastic phone screen protector material?English
3·2 years agoMaybe I’m ignorant but I’ve felt like phones haven’t needed screen protectors for a while… I’ve had a GS9 for years with no screen protector and I have a very very minor scratch that can only be seen with the screen off and that’s it.
I’ve never shattered a phone screen before, am I just an outlier?

Memes@lemmy.ml•Seriously though, happy for all the hackermans that get a kick out of them.English
1·2 years agoThe dev is not tracking anything. Google ads is… and like the other comment said if you have Google Play on an android phone then you’re being tracked.
I’d wager most people complaining about sync also have a Gmail account or shop on Amazon, or watch YouTube, or a million other equally or more invasive stuff.

21·2 years agoThe trackers are from the ads. They go hand in hand so I think people mean both when they say ads. Ads tracking you is kinda a given. And if you pay to remove the ads the trackers never load either.
There shouldn’t be a loaded gun anywhere near a film set. That’s the problem, not him practicing his scene between camera rolls

Climate@slrpnk.net•'Who will buy my house if they can't get insurance'English3·2 years agoWhile I agree with you, I think you’re giving him too much credit. Ben doesn’t seem like someone who puts much thought into what drivels from his mouth. He just wants to “win” the “debate”

Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•In Odessa, a man was punched in the face after antagonizing police officersEnglish
6·2 years agoHow about don’t fuck with authorities when you’re in a war zone. Probably a good rule to live by to avoid getting rocked in the face, or worse.
