  • Nah you got banned for a reason, you suck at discussing anything of value and have unhinged takes and total lack of respect for others as well. I would continue to probe your mind to try and understand how you expect to reconcile having anonymity online to post whatever the fuck you want, with killing people who post CSAM online… Even though they’d be anonymous and free to post whatever they like because we somehow skipped content moderation and went straight for firing squad… But I think the ban you earned speaks for itself.


  • Ok so you’re just absolutely unhinged, got it. How old are you? You’re against airplanes in a very black-and-white way. Millions of people use airplanes daily, you know? I just happened to be boarding my plane back home when I saw this brainrot post. You know nothing else about me other than I was boarding a plane while typing this, so you’re way too quick to jump to conclusions about people, which is… Immature. Greta’s decisions regarding travel are commendable, but not everybody is able to spend money and time opting for boats instead of airplanes.

    As for the rest of your comment… Who tf said anything about killing anyone??? If you cannot agree on a simple concept such as moderation in the context of an online platform, then you have no place questioning the way this or any platform works, at least not without sitting down and learning about online platforms, or basic human decency, first. Extremist & childish tales such as “we kill all the offenders” is exactly how we’re in this mess of a worldwide situation to begin with, not to mention it’s such a tangential answer to my very straightforward question of, what do you do about people posting things nobody should post, while not knowing who posted it and not being able to prevent them from doing it again, all in the name of privacy or freedom of speech. TOR is a great tool for very specific people, that happens to also facilitate lots of nasty shit online. There’s enough nasty shit on Tor, or on unmoderated niche sites. We don’t want the bad rep from potentially allowing CSAM into a social network looking to bring in new people into it. Lack of moderation is exactly how you end up killing a platform… But I don’t think you want to listen to reason on this.


  • What I need to understand is how you envision a 0-censorship community working when there’s content that should at all times be censored, like CSAM. I don’t hear solutions to these cases, or even an acknowledgement that not all content should be protected from any sort of moderation, just complaints about content being moderated at all. Furthermore, you keep accusing everyone of arguing in bad faith but we’re all just saying the normal shit every other Lemmy user knows about Lemmy and ActivityPub.

    And if I missed some point of yours, which seems like you think most of us are, blame it on laziness or smith, I’m boarding a plane and can’t be bothered


  • This sort of applies to dev work too, especially if you have ADHD. I overcome blockage by rubber ducking, but sometimes my ADHD gets strong enough that I can’t, for the life of me, sit down to write some trivial code that might as well be a typing exercise. I simply get Cursor to generate the stuff, proofread it, and now that it’s suddenly a bug smashing session instead of typing out some class or component or whatever, I overcome my blockage and can even flow. Speaking as someone that often gets blocked for weeks to months at a time, LLMs have saved me from crashing into deadlines more than a few times.


  • Legit question @people who know more about Theo than me, but isn’t Theo like, actually a pretty nice guy, even if right wing? Dude kinda reminds me a bit of Destin from SmarterEveryDay, who’s obviously on the redneck side of things, is right wing as far as I can tell, but is still extremely knowledgeable, incredibly chill, and actually cares about the foundations of his stances and doesn’t buy into divisionist rhetorics.

    I might be assuming things and jumping to conclusions, which is why I am asking this, but I vaguely recall a video he made which clearly showed he held right wing positions but had no issue tearing down right wing propaganda and stances if they were bullshit.


  • This dude is trying to get people to think, to notice, to act, he’s trying to educate people and to help them change. Maybe don’t immediately disregard him as “not a true socialist”, maybe don’t outright jump to calling him a tankie. We’re all in this hell hole together, the least we could do is help each other out and spread the educational content, work together to give a friendly summary on our points of view, and keep moving forward.

    I like his content, and I like that he’s trying, that’s my opinion on him.





  • I had pretty much the same experience you did. I did randomly find a reddit post with a ublock custom filter to avoid the whole “page not loading at all” thing. Ever since, I’ve had only one ubo failure that I fixed with the routine filters refresh, and dare I say youtube’s actually been getting faster for me lately? I did have that slowdown, due to their thing that prevented the page from loading, but now it’s almost like they’ve ramped down on their efforts.

    Edit: I’m here to stand corrected. Fuckers are messing with any browser that’s not theirs. Add the following filter to ublock if your video pages take 5 seconds to load: www.youtube.com###+js(nano-stb, resolve(1), 5000, 0.01)


  • Huh, last I checked, the professional standard was Mac, at least for recording instruments. From what I vaguely recall, Windows has a latency issue due to how they handle audio stream inputs. I went through these woes myself once while using my guitar & Amp through my computer to practice with headphones on and having the music playing on top. The latency just doesn’t allow you to concentrate on what you’re playing, it completely distracts you. You can get it lower by doing something, I don’t remember what, but that solution ends up introducing random new bugs such as certain audio streams suddenly not playing at all for a while before fixing themselves, and it still doesn’t quite get latency low enough to not notice it.

    Yeah if you guys put him in office again, I’m just deleting all social media including lemmy. Fuuuuuck that [most times daily, some times HOURLY] noise. I already live in a very depressing country, don’t need Americans to remind me they’re making things worse.







  • I’ll one-up you, and I hope nobody I know reads this. I work from home as a web dev. I have ADHD. I sometimes work deep into the night because I procrastinate all day. I’ll be working with one hand and stroking it rock hard with another, with no real horniness or need to cum for hours. It’s just like a fidgeting thing. I’m looking at code, sleep deprived out of my mind, and somehow rock hard. I don’t get it, but I’m too stressed to care.
