I’m not sure I’d call them “trolls.”
I think Lemmy and the fediverse in general is vulnerable to bot manipulation because no one is going to give out personal information to random instances.
There are users on [email protected] who say that they get accused of being bots.
Sexual selection usually takes care of problems like this. People with antisocial tendencies find it extremely difficult to find partners.
In my experience, libertarians tend to be extremely moderate conservatives who don’t want to submit to God.
If there’s no competition, then providers can just make up any price that they want and the government has to pay it.
When there’s an entirely planned economy, there’s no possibility for alternatives to be created.
I want there to be a viable public option that exists. The alternative would be to require that everyone get coverage.
This is probably where I align economically, but I support statist mandates that are inconsistent with “individual libertarianism” or “civil libertarianism.”
For example, we should decriminalize drug use, but there should absolutely be a strong statist intervention where people are forced to stop using drugs.
Libertarians are the right wing version of 20 year old socialists who want free stuff and have no understand of what really drives and motivates people.
I tend to lean left but I’m incredibly disappointed with the state of the political landscape.
Libertarians are political extremists who hate anything related to the government but don’t care about being oppressed by private businesses, or they think that it simply won’t happen in their utopia. Libertarians are everything they hate about the woke left, only applied to the government.
The problem is defining what acceptable positive rights involves. There are people who think that having to “work to survive” is somehow a major human rights abuse. I don’t think that anyone should be entitled to not have to work unless they are severely disabled and can’t work. At the same time, expecting people to work multiple jobs is corporate oppression.
I’m not a libertarian, but from what I’ve seen of their positions on this, they don’t think that it’s possible in an effective way. There’s two possible versions: the government pays for everything, or there’s public and private health care. A lot of countries have both, which is probably the best option since driving out competition is going to make everything go to crap.
The problem is that there are some arrangements that simply can’t work or the existing system would implode in the transition.
There are also a lot of people who don’t want to pay because someone who refused to get insurance for years finally decided to sign up for public health care because they suddenly got a serious health problem. In some possible arrangements, it would be necessary to force people to have health insurance, which is its own rabbit hole.
Tell American conservatives to tax Mike Bloomberg and other anti gun billionaires 70% and use the money to buy guns for poor people. America will become communist overnight.
Based on experience, possibly not more then a few months.
That could work but you’re still doing full cycles on the battery all the time. In the end, it might be less then daily use.
A phone is not a UPS.
I’ll say that you probably want .com. Domain names that integrate the TLD are cute, but they can be problematic. Not everyone will pick up on the fact that it’s supposed to be pronounced as one word. This leads into the fact that it can be hard to verbally convey this domain to other people. Very specific TLDs are also likely to have strict or unusual rules on their use that could get them revoked.
Leaving a mobile device plugged in constantly will fry the battery. If you never plan to use it for its intended use again, that might not matter and it could be a good way of recycling and old device. There might be a setting to limit the maximum charge of the battery. If so, limit it to around 80% and that might extend it.
It might also depend on what kind of school it is.
