We’ve finally made it! People look at a picture of Lemmy thinking it’s a more popular platform.

People absolutely think something about it when it happens, and hell sometimes the government even does something about it (as demonstrated in the article you linked). Just a whole lot of us would argue they don’t do enough about it.
Oh but didn’t you know that’s just a slippery slope argument and he’s really just a cool dude and who doesn’t encourage hate or violence? /s
A whole lotta people in this thread who don’t want to acknowledge that this dude is trash, no matter how good or bad their music is.
I made it pretty clear he’s a terrible person, just for many, many other reasons that are far easier to argue.
Defending a pedophile doesn’t make one a pedophile. That’s the stretch I’m arguing against.
I can’t believe I’m defending Stallman here. He’s got so many other reasons to be hated.
Richard Stallman is a bad person but I don’t think we need to make stuff up to prove that. He’s said he’s fine with child pornography (as long as it’s consensual) and might have favorable views on pedophilia (that may have since been backtracked) but that doesn’t make himself a pedophile.
Just a misunderstood crazy person.
Yes. It partially makes sense because you could screw the new congresspeople who aren’t corrupt with hidden income sources into not being able to afford their living situation, which could become a really bad point of leverage for awful people. I believe their staff goes without pay though.
10·2 years agoA lot of it was updated with both OSM (imagery via Mapillary) and Google Maps.
While I love the “don’t make Google stronger” stance, the goal wasn’t to help Google but instead to help the people who needed the imagery. And (at the time, at least) most people planned their routes using Google Maps so it was important to meet them where they were.
Whoa I had no idea this happened. I used to be a part of a group that would go in and add street view for places like public transit stations so people could gauge accessibility. It’s such a shame that Google killed that ability…
After we lost that one expensive spacecraft we’ve been moving towards metric more and more there as well.
Definitely a lot more out in the country than in the cities or even suburbs. 10% sounds about right.
13·2 years ago“Living the dream” is also in the US but it’s usually more sarcastic like “Just another shitty day at this job, just living the dream!”
All of those are widespread in the northeast US if not across the entire US.
The terrifying part to me is how many people they must have had doing that boring task week after week.
Like sure, I don’t want everyone to be jobless because the robots are taking over. But I am hugely in favor of the boring, repetitive tasks being automated away so people can work on more interesting things.
I think everyone in your replies is conflating being a full time landlord and a part time landlord. One of them is definitely more evil than the other.
It’s even worse when you go to the manufacturer’s website, order it directly there, and then have it delivered using Amazon fulfillment still despite trying to avoid it.
2·2 years agoGood point, it doesn’t appear to be. Might be good to drop a note on GitHub (or their contact method of choice) so they can set that flag.
Edit: I just went and sent them a mention on Mastodon. I noticed it’s an admin account so I wonder if Lemmy lets both flags be set at once.
I personally just started using Owntracks, which is a standalone location tracker. There is also Traccar which I looked into but opted not to make use of.
Some people use it as a Find My replacement, I personally make use of it as a Google Maps Timeline replacement (and have imported my previous data as a result) as well as for Tile tracker location history (which I’ve got custom scripted currently).
Wait since when does a tilde mean high availability?
It’s useful to note that there exists Lemmy servers where down votes are not processed. So the high up vote to down vote ratio isn’t necessarily a reflection of people not down voting, it’s potentially a reflection of the servers that allow down votes along with all other servers (generally they all allow up votes).
