It's been like that for decades to be honest. Ceres used to be called a planet, but you don't see anyone complaining about it's demotion

Here's what bugs me: Why didn't channels like GamerNexus and LTT cover the petition until after Louis declared it dead?

I lean more on the Universal Maximum Income where everything above a threshold is taxed

You literally just described the progressive tax system that every developed country has today

And by doing so you're normalizing your kids to surveillance, which is a big part of why privacy is being eroded

It's better than the victim blaming that the Vice article participates in

Huh. I distinctly remember the subreddit mods directly advertising this community instead of the one on sh.itjust.works. Maybe I just assumed you guys were joined together.

It's kinda funny, because I joined sh.itjust.works specifically because they already had an ncd community and evem tried to get the two mod groups in contact.

Unfortunately that didn't work due to the only sh.itjust.works mod that had a Reddit account forgetting to check their inbox for weeks

The BBC has an article that gives a decent overview: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-57853385

And Vice isn't doing anyone favors by leaning into the transphobia spin: https://www.vice.com/en/article/whats-wrong-with-the-no-trans-dating-preference-debate/

A lot of this is also from personal memory. I was plugged into a lot of different communities 2018-2021on all sides of the aisle.

Thankfully people aren't yelling at lesbians about this anymore, at least not what I've seen. Unfortunately, the damage has already been done.

Also unfortunately, it seems that people aren't understanding the point of my original comment. And it's that every group has some number of assholes in it, and it's up to the group as a whole to make sure that said assholes don't ruin their reputation.

This isn't meant to bash transpeople. It's meant as a cautionary tale to avoid letting a minority of assholes set how everyone else sees the group.

Ðere's 2 communities. Ðe one on sh.itjust.works is ðe original, but ðe one on lemmy.world is run by ðe mods from ðe original subreddit

That's pretty much been my opinion of this entire story arc. It's felt like it's dragging on way more than season 1

Firefox still doesn't support tab groups on mobile. That's a non-starter for me. Hopfully Ladybird has their shit better put together than mozilla when they finally release their browser

Still in development

 
 

Currently getting my first media server set up, and I'm wondering what the best directory would be for all the stored files. For reference, I'm working with Ubuntu server to follow the guide I'm using.

Mainly, I'm wondering if I should migrate /home/ to my RAID array, or leave /home/ where it is and create a new directory on the RAID array. Currently the server will just be for my use, but might expand it for others to use

 

I've been wanting a suppressor for my rifle for awhile, but with the incoming administration I'm worried about having my fingerprints on file due to the tax stamp. On the other hand, I'm seeing a bunch of people recommending suppressors on the subreddit and they don't seem to care. Is my worry reasonable or unfounded?

 
 

I'm looking into building my first NAS/Jellyfin server, and one thing I keep wondering about is whether I should try and make it work as a Sunshine server to stream games to my TV via Moonlight.

On my current desktop, I mainly do this for emulated games or former console exclusives. That being said, I'd rather not use my desktop as a server, hence wanting to cram it into a NAS/Jellyfin server. Is this a good idea? Or should I drop it and keep the media server separate?

 

Per the title, I remember TheDude mentioning that he will set up a way to donate money to help cover server expenses months back. I haven't seen a link yet and wondering if that's been done

 

As the title says, Yuzu is being a hassle. I'm having to reconfigure my controller every single session, which is extremely annoying when I'm streaming it through Moonlight/Sunshine and have to either walk all the way across the house to fix it or use the controller to emulate a mouse.

Also, Yuzu is "saving" my configurations, but only in name. Every time I open it up in the configuration menu, all my button remappings (ex: flipping face buttons) are reset to default.

Is there anyone willing and able to help with this?
