If you've currently got a decent job, then you can afford to be suuuuper picky.

There's a misogyny problem here.

I'm the other way around - I took one trip to the Netherlands and didn't expect to come back forever changed. I know what good public transit looks like now and can't unsee it. Since then I've picked apartments based on how bicycle and metro connected they are.

Seriously asking: have there ever been academic studies comparing the relative accuracy of polling predictions vs betting predictions?

Because they're already not voting!

Nothing is a step in the right direction

So you're saying it's a money making opportunity...

The assistance I need: my snail mail address is actually a service that scans the letters and turns them into email. Then I don't need to go check the mail, I can filter it, and I can easily turn it into reminders.

There's a few if they know what to look for. Every once in a while when I'm in the zone at work, I'll notice my fingers playing the piano ("stimming") and hide them in my pockets.

One of my players made this fancy djinn character who got one-shotted in his first encounter.

Moral of the story: words mean things. Don't trust memes just because they drew an authoritative source.

Yes theft of surplus value matters too. So say that instead if that's what you mean.

Digital artists and illustrators are abandoning Elon Musk’s blogging platform X (formerly Twitter) over the introduction of a new controversial image-editing feature powered by artificial intelligence (AI). According to reports, the creators claimed that the new tool could be used to modify others’ works without their consent.

One such popular creator championing the boycott is Mu-jik Park, the renowned South Korean artist known by the pen name Boichi. Boichi is the creator of the hit manga series Dr Stone and Sun-Ken Rock.

 
 

My understanding of federation is that it's like email. If one server is misbehaving, then they get defederated.

So how come email spam still exists - why don't spammer domains get defederated? It seems like we've got the worst of both worlds, where it's hard to get your emails relayed when you run a small email server, and easy to get them relayed if you're a spammer.

Is there anything about Lemmy's architecture that will prevent this problem?
