Asking for a historical example is not inciting violence, telling people to start shooting and put their money where their mouth is, is inciting violence, even if you’re being sarcastic.

I wonder what you would consider as not “all talk”? Someone posting evidence? Gee, I wonder why people don’t do that. I wonder if that’s exactly what people engaging in direct action should never do.

I wonder how I can tell the difference between what you’re doing now and how a fed would talk.

You want receipts?

And please, keep giving me your one downvote, it’s not a sad & pathetic attempt to assert yourself that’s transparent to anyone who happens to read this, not at all.

And it’s you, not the person you’re accusing.

There’s only one person here who’s actually telling other people to get violent.

This is an online forum. It’s words. Your idea that the people you’re talking to are all talk is unfalsifiable. If anyone did post on here about pulling a trigger you could attack them for being all talk for exactly that same reason.

On this forum, you are also all talk. There is literally nothing else you can do on here.

But go off, everybody around you is all talk, all the time. That certainly isn’t a feature of the place you chose to express your vapid rants.

People who are organising on the ground are under no obligation to keep you in the loop by posting about it publicly, especially given you clearly aren’t interested in helping anyway.

My guess is your accusations are all a projection of your own feelings of powerlessness. I mean there’s not going to be another election for about 4 more years, and your only method of change is useless until then.

Gee, I wonder if that’s by design?

The radical flank effect:

The argument could be made that because the image generator is essentially a regurgitator with no artistic interpretation, there is no transformative artistic value in it. It’s like applying a filter with extra steps.

Also the generators charge for access, so they are profiting off of the IP. That’s quite different to making something for personal use or releasing it for free.

Welcome!

My kid wanted to watch it together, and I was like, that’s fine as long as you let me tell you that Rick isn’t always right and he’s not the hero.

If anyone thought Trump’s party was the party of “the little guys” at any point in time now or before the inauguration, they shouldn’t be trusted with a pair of blunt scissors, much less a key piece of IT infrastructure.

And if you’re gullible enough to think that’s a reasonable defence, I’d put you in that category too. I’m not really interested in anything else you have to say, that was just a disqualifyingly vapid argument you just made.

Bye.

He literally said that they are now the party of the little guys. That’s what “the tables have turned” means. That says a lot about how he feels about Trump, and a lot about how much you can trust his judgement on anything.

That is in the back of my mind. God help me I may just do it.

Goddamnit, I just made an email with them, trying to get out of google’s monopoly. Does anyone know an email service that doesn’t suck?

“Tip of the iceberg” means there is more lying in wait under the surface that can sink your ship. Sailors give icebergs a wide berth for this reason.

The point of the saying is that there is more danger than just what’s immediately visible.

Omg the top comment on that first video:

“I don’t even think that girl knew she was being filmed.”

Amazing.

Yeah, there’s a simple code for it, you just have to type “Luigi spez” and they’ll handle this for you.

Reddit doesn’t have the internet infrastructure FB has where they were able to monopolise the internet of whole countries in certain parts of the world.

And the wider they cast this dragnet the more users will be caught up in it, the more will slowly leave, the less content will be created, the worse the platform will get.

I think for the future of reddit you only need to look at digg.

Fun fact! “Mongoloid” is an old timey way of talking about down’s syndrome as well as a very old timey way of talking about races, and we don’t use it anymore because it’s literally equating congitive impairment with racial characteristics.

Anyone using it today as pejorative is saying something worse than the R-slur, because it’s not only ableist, it’s racist too!

Oh boy I love learning.

I’m so glad we get to hear from our neighbours in the .ml instance still for some reason.

I’m curious about how they handle retracting the quote in an open source federated model where the behaviour of other instances can’t be ensured. Does the instance hosting the quote simply refuse to honour the quote link?

And I suppose if an instance uses a hostile workaround like simply embedding a copy, that would be seen as a bad mark against the instance which could lead to defederation?

I’m not saying it’s impossible, just interested in the specifics.
