“I’m knittin’ like a fuckin electric nan”
Lemmy isn’t “competing” with Reddit. It isn’t trying to “earn market share”, or make a profit, or sell data, or train AI, or manipulate the public discourse. It’s user friendly, rather than antagonistic. As far as content: it builds slowly. If you have a niche interest that you’d like to see more of, then create or join a comm and make regular posts.
…but not too near.
They have a press corp that could hardly be any more compliant as it is.
It’s not about 9/11. It’s not that he needs a good excuse (clearly he doesn’t). Excuse or no, he can’t just steamroll Iran. He’s realizing he fucked up and isn’t prepared to see it through, so he’s just bullshitting and hoping things will work out somehow.
You can be against when it happens to poor people, and for when it happens to the rich. Hell, even if you really believe in “equal treatment under the law”, you can be in favor of the rich getting some of the “equal treatment” for a change— until the treatment changes for the poor.
Not that I’ve always gotten as much sex as I wanted, but I’ve never needed money for it.
Seems like like this could be rephrased as: people driven into prostitution to avoid starvation.
Mafugga horny for a sawzall.
I’m in my 40’s, but I still remember my middle-school Spanish lessons: soy, eres, es, somos, sois, son. Of course, we were informed that the ‘vosotros’ form was particular to Spain.
US policy in regards to Ukraine is to bog Russia down. Same thing as when they were fighting in Afghanistan. The longer this conflict goes on, the better for US foreign policy objectives (and weapons manufacturers).
“Decorum” is a top principle of so-called centrists.
We need to find a way to fund critical FLOSS. No, not like that!
They’re moving at least one from S Korea to replace one of the destroyed ones. Hopefully it gets blown up too.
Kind of. When people leave Reddit, it’s for a reason. They obviously aren’t looking for a Reddit clone, since it would include the reason they left in the first place. People that leave Reddit for Lemmy either stay and rebuild their communities here, or they suck it up and go back to Reddit. There is no magic solution to add millions of users to Lemmy overnight, and honestly the existing community (and probably software) couldn’t handle that. This is people-powered (volunteer and federated) social networking as opposed to venture capital, IPOs and data centers at scale. Participate and enjoy growing a better future :)
