What a nuanced representation of the position, I just feel trustworthiness oozes out of the screen.
In case you’re using random words generation machine to summarise this comment for you, it was a sarcasm, and I meant the opposite.

In which case you probably aren’t saving time. Checking bullshit is usually harder and longer to just research shit yourself. Or should be, if you do due diligence

It’s easy, it’s quick, and it’s free: pouring river water in your socks.
Fortunately, there are other possible criteria.

A nazi did a nazi salute. He might or might not intended to do it. Semantics are irrelevant.

Exactly. In a sence that it happened once, wasn’t really significant, but people making it out to be some kind of catastrophe instead of a pretty regular not very newsworthy event

Yeah, it’s less about “returned” and more about “somehow”.

Nobody’s looking into space that nobody wants. And people don’t want space that can’t be easily accessed. Win win for you.
But if you’re determined to remain in US you can buy an acre of land in Alaska for like a thousand bucks, and then you can live there for as long as you want.

There is so much empty land in the middle of nowhere. If the goal is to never interact with society again, it is unbelievably easy to achieve.

Off hours can’t be 6 times cheaper, surely

fucking propaganda

Damn, really? That’s craaaazy.

Every hacker group or indeed a random guy, can get and routinely gets this data for very cheap. It’s not news because its the norm.

Last year there was hope that the US will at least not get worse.

These science institutions shouldn’t be used for fucking politics.

You’d think, huh? Daamn, that’s crazy

Nothing ever “happened” . Politics is an ongoing process. Putin actively wants the west in disarray and in chaos, China wants it to be weak and submissive. They use the data they buy and gather to achieve that. And if you think Putin has nothing to do with rampant queerphobia, you just ignorant about him

It’s in a perpetual state of leakage in a sence that it’s a trade item that gets sold between different companies. You can’t leak that, really.

I think all of them are dead, I’m not sure I will be safe with a bunch of dead people in the elevator

They will not create their own instance, they will come to ours. And we don’t have neither computing power to support all of them, nor enough skilled moderators to respond to all that, not enough of a routine and etiquette to quickly understand whom to kill and who is there legit.
I can see it all evolving over time, but I am really not optimistic about the scenario of Lemmy trying to accommodate to even a 100k people overnight. And reddit is much bigger than that.

New law: CEOs and their family are exempt from any and all forms of surveillance.
Oh wait, it’s actually an old law.

Fediverse, as much as I love the idea, isn’t even close to accept even a portion of people who will flock here when reddit totally dies. It will crumble upon itself the same day. Two third of instances will immediately run out of credit and shut down, the rest will be overwhelmed by traffic and devolve into a slow mess full of trolls and spam.
Fediverse needs to grow organically

The death of any public platform is a bad thing, even that flawed as Reddit
