You think people didn't used to have jobs?

Back then videos were a lot less produced and more raw style. When I first started using/watching youtube in 07 content was a lot quicker to make.

"Quality" is subjective and doesn't necessarily require much money.

The requiring money isn't about cost to produce its the time it takes. Most successful channels now have several hours of editing for each video because the average standard of videos now looks like it could be produced for TV.

Thousands of people already are. Myself included. And it's not "just for fun", it's because we don't want to subject ourselves to abusive and invasive corporations.

I agree with this on paper, but in practice the "customer base" is currently Youtube and TikTok. If I want to create a serious channel with a lot of views and a large community I'd need to spend all my free time making and editing videos and without a real chance to monetize its just not worth it.

Most people don't start making videos to make money. In the early Tube days there was no money.

Not anymore, people have jobs which take up at least 8 hours of their day, sleep another lets round it to 8 hours, then other responsibilities. Anyone who seriously want to make quality videos on a consistent schedule wants to make money and the end goal being to turn it into their job.

PeerTube only has 1 less avenue for monetization than YT, among dozens.

People on Youtube are much more easily able to make money and make a living. Most of it actually has nothing to do with Youtube other than the fact that Youtube provides them with a base of billions of potential viewers.

  1. AdSense which is hands down the worst of them.
  2. Sponsors allow people to decide who they are willing to show on their videos and makes people decent money especially bigger creators. That's not going to happen on smaller platforms.
  3. Patrion this is probably the biggest one people are able to get consistent monthly income and make Youtube their full time job.
  4. Creator made subscription platforms. This is another big perk I pay for 2 curiosity stream and the history one.

No one is going to a platform thats "just for fun" because content quality will suffer and be less enjoyable for creators.

They can still have a relationship just no living in the same house

[–] Sackeshi@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Renting assuming it was exclusive and they weren't allowed in the whole house is fine imo. It's when the adults shared the same common areas.

[–] Sackeshi@lemmy.world -2 points 2 days ago

Not the same thing if they object to a stranger living in their home, and you let them in anyway, they feel less safe and now if they come to you because that person does something bad you're more likely to question whether they're being truthful or not. It's literally the case for so many parents who think their kids are just trying to lie to get then out the house.

It's not that hard to wait to move them in. Let them come over for dinner or game night and let kids get comfortable and like them first.

[–] Sackeshi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

That's a good point, I guess I'd add that it's fine to keep seeing them or even to allow them over for dinner or to game night, but giving children time to get to know them and like them before officially moving in.

 

Thank goodness this never happened to me cause my parents were good parents, it's just as much the childrens home as the parents and children should be allowed to say "I don't feel comfortable with another man or woman living hear" Its the parents responsibility to make sure their children are comfortable and feel safe around a new adult. The parent should plan a public meet and greet parent, child, step and after each one the children should have the right to say no more and it end there.

 

Okay, so we know Eukaryote-synthesis happened multiple times, because both Mitochondria and chloroplasts were independent simple cells as one point.

So maybe in the early says of Eukaryote-synthesis when the earth was being poisoned by oxygen and snowball earth was happening the selective pressures caused dozens of Eukaryote like cells to evolve, and for even a tiny span of time maybe 30,000 years or less or even 100,000 years privative tiny multicellular formed with endless forms and systems that would have looked like dozens of alien linages unrecognizable, and that by the time of the macro life explosion of the Cambrian only our linage survived.

Untraceable but the most biodiversity in the planets history which is why the current domain with Plants Animals and Fungi are so successful at avoiding total annellation.

Cats can't properly digest plant matter. They have very few taste buds and no sweet receptors for a reason. They can only digest meat.

The difference is children spend 1/5 to 1/4 of their life being "not free" the animals you force to eat vegan spend their whole life stuck in that life style

 

So according to the ethics of veganism it's about valuing sentient life and animal consent.

So I pose a few questions.

  1. Is it justified to buy animal based dog and cat food?

  2. Is it justifiable to force a dog or cat to be vegan?

If 1 is justifiable then the claim that it's unethical for humans to eat meat is untrue since feeding your pets meat requires more animals to be raised for slaughter.

If 2 is true then it violates animal consent because there are zero dogs or cats that prefer vegan food to meat and infact are naturally omnivorous in the case of dogs or pure carnivores in the case of cats.

So the logical conclusion would be owning meat eating pets in impossible while being vegan.

Then it leads to the ethics of what happened to the breeds of cats and dogs no longer able to be pets.

Soap and deodorant is all that you need to not smell, soap when showering and a daily use of anti perspirant deodorant then literally you won't smell.

 

If I can smell your perfume as you walk past and it lingers for a while I assume you don't wash yourself simple as that, why would you subject everyone and yourself to that if you didn't reek and need to cover it up. The only person who would smell you is the person in bed with you.

In the United States we are under at will employment in every state but Montana. Essentially, hire at will fire at will quit at will. This is not good for employees and I'd argue employers too. My proposal.

Mandatory contract employment for all non Independent contractor employment (Independent contractors must be entitled to their own hours & be paid per project/unit of work) Contracts would have set limits minimum of 12 months, maximum of 5 years. (exception for seasonal employment) The contract would be required to specify all policy rules, what hours they will work and regulations of the company, the starting pay, the frequency of raises and how much the raises are, the expectations to receive raises.

Employment courts would be set up where a fired employee would be allowed to appeal a firing in where the company would have to show cause, by showing a legal rule was broken and that there was consistent and equal enforcement. If found to have cause the employee forfeit unemployment insurance, if shown to not have cause the employer must either keep them employed with 1.5 backpay for days not worked or pay out their contract.

Conversely if an employee wants to quit they must show good cause (harassment, unequal treatment, breech of contract) or buy out said contract either directly or by monthly payments)

If either the employer or employee violates the law they can be held in criminal contempt and jailed until bailed (which will be paid to the other party) or stipulations met or contract would have naturally expired.

This imo would be far superior to the nonsense we have currently.

There is a real change to finally have a free and prosperous democratic state in the middle east. Now is the time to offer aid and man power to rebuild and and help transition to democracy.

Ways they could do this.

  1. Send money and people to help rebuild the infrastructure. Paving new roads, rebuilding homes and appartments, and getting businesses going with a proper currency.

  2. Train the civil servants to they can get things working properly.

  3. Host the constitutional convention and steer them towards a proportional electoral system and decentralization. This is important, they need a constitution that protects their values and gives each ethnicity their own autonomy which is important to cool tension. Proportional representation will prevent one party from taking control. If each group has a seat at the table and is able to agree on the constitution it will heal the country.

There is really no downside to getting a democratic ally in the Middle least that will act a force of peace.

 

There is so much discussion and uncertainty on species when its really very simple. We can add categories under species for more specificity but the definition of species must be objective and true. A species is any group of creatures that can reproduce and produce fertile off spring. This is a clear line that objectively determines where 1 species ends and where 1 species begins.

Now we can use another term either subspecies or breed, which can be described as a population within a species that predominantly reproduces within their subgroup. Problem solved? This allows for cases where 2 subgroups of animals can reproduce with each other but rarely do and completes the tree/pyramid of life.

 

It's strange not seeing comment and post karma.

 

Decentralization is obviously the big thing about the Fediverse but is it TOO decentralized to gain traction?

There is no reason why they have to be fully separate domains in the same branch. You can set up a system of fully independent moderation and extreme levels of customization while having them all on one site with a front page that allows everyone to see whats popular.

A front page wouldn't prevent individual subgroups from requiring approval to join, it wouldn't prevent subgroups from banning those it doesn't want. It doesn't prevent users from blocking subgroups that it doesn't want to see on the front page.

What would be most useful is that now someone could create an account on the Reddit, Twitter, Facebook(?) alternatives and give them access to every community, and then allow each community to set its own rules, and customize its own to be unique while having a unified product to "sell" and get people to move.

Hot take? Blue Sky should be worked with to join the Fediverse as the twitter alternative and Mastodon should work to be the Facebook alternative

TLDR: One front page and general site for Lemmy, Mastodon....and to sign up and see whats popular and then have fully independent subgroups.
