  • It Wasn’t a Blowout, but El-Sayed Won. Get Behind Him, Democrats.

  • That's entirely the point. Primaries, especially in non-presidential election years, are notorious for extremely low voter turnout.

    The candidate in this senate primary pulled more votes than the nominee in a presidential general election.

  • Abdul got 15899 votes in Dearborn in this primary election.

    Kamala Harris got 15189 votes in Dearborn during the general presidential election.

    I think that is a meaningful statistic.

  • And it's a primary.

  • Hexbear originated from ChapoTrapHouse fandom which is a part of the so-called dirtbag left that explicitly antagonizes (neo)liberals. They also don't use downvotes and encourage users to voice their opinions instead.

    So every wave of redditor freaks the hell out when they get a handful of hexbear users clowning on some take like it's a coordinated brigade attack.

  • It's all a little fuzzy but essentially the Gros Michel was THE cultivar of banana, but it became susceptible to a disease. It still exists, but can't be farmed like it used to be.

    The chemical was developed and likened to the Gros Michel variety in mind for it being called 'banana' flavor since the Cavendish (i think?) hadn't yet replaced the world market as the banana cultivar of choice.

  • Some thoughts after 3 years on Lemmy

  • Not all communities are run the same way, nor do any intend to do so necessarily.

    At a certain point some people are just trying to maintain a walled garden with curated content. Sometimes they can be real shit about it, too. It's not exactly suited for the Fediverse, but neither are broad, everything-goes communities or ones trying to appeal to 'everyone'.

  • Not who you're commenting to, but for me it's based on wasting/spending the time to read not only OP's analysis about the Fediverse, but then looking into their comment history and public modlogs for their 'perfectly polite' takes that got them banned.

    Which is far more than basing a conclusion on a single phrase.

    People wearing the skin of decency usually gives reason for people to fight on social media. And sometimes people do the research so others don't have to.

  • The context of the author is valid when judging their content.

  • What are some of your favourite niche or hobby-based Lemmy instances, and which ones should be avoided at all costs?

    Jump

  • A lot of the moderation that causes users public grief are usually just timeouts. Arguments over politics and ideology, etc quite often catch folks a timeout. Folks will debate a two day ban for a week.

    And with the Fediverse: many community moderators are also admins of instances.

    So with that in mind: moderation policies quickly convert drama between users to drama between instances.

  • Only thing I could add is that the Piefed dev has thus far been supportive of the Tesseract dev in their blacklisting decisions. But I dunno about this DDOS stuff though.

  • So that's the piefed dev... and I'll assume the two others consist of the most overtly zionist admins in the FHF corporate team? (Wait, I'm sorry "corpasluts".)

    I mean just what is FHF going to do without their CFO? Or will they keep him onboard as a reliable financial manager who just hates the fediverse?

    Oh it's been a fun the last couple of weeks on here, I can tell you that. The vindication feels great.

  • Yeah the whole concept was dogshit from the beginning. It solved no problem except as an exercise of control.

  • Just before this whole thing, the piefed dev pushed an update that capped how many up/downvotes piefed users can do per day. They set the cap to effectively punish like 3 users who posted all day everyday.

    One of those users had a "I will leave unless you reconsider." moment and they didn't give half a shit. And they didn't even make the list. None of their communities did.

    So just a couple devs thrashing around causing as much collateral damage as possible.

  • Are there any unskilled, minimum-wage jobs that would leave me with some amount of free time every day?

    Jump

  • I don't know how physically able you are but you might be a good fit for helping survey crews and researchers.

    This is just one example but there's often science work that needs physical bodes. Like there was a non profit institute I worked for that did shellfish surveys every summer for the local industry. They paid 10 bucks an hour 20 years ago and they always advertised at the collrge but also dodn't need degrees because they always hired undergrads.

    It's worth exploring if its possible or an option and usually feels better than most menial jobs lime in retail.

  • The distance left and right doesn’t have to be the same in each direction.

    Which makes the center arbitrarily defined in the exact way I stated. Precisely.

  • Tesseract hides any post containing the phrase "censoring me"

    Jump

  • Based on the skew of what's on the blacklist, it'd have been more efficient for Tesseract to run off a whitelist only for FHF corporate approved.
