Americans of Lemmy, what is your approach to next year's election?

2020 was… truly unique. It was so hard to stay away from doom scrolling, and I (and many others) were pretty disillusioned by the sad fact that so much of our country legitimately supported the Orange Man. I didn’t get a wink of sleep the night of the election because I genuinely considered it to be a make or break decision...

BarterClub,

If it’s Trump on the ballet. Whoever else is better. Keep Hitler Jr out of office.

And we did this to ourselves to make pickups in the USA not be required to have additional licensing. We did before Ragan if I recall correctly.

Edit

4 replies and they are fixated on Ragan. Didn’t state he was repossable or not. Here is a good video about this. youtu.be/jN7mSXMruEo?si=7PsOF-WE8MXX87vX

BarterClub,

Shouldn’t be. But here in oh USA we treat it as our first born son. 🤦‍♂️

BarterClub,

Man, they are going the way of Twitter. Jeez.

BarterClub,

Yes. We banned a ton of fake accounts and servers.

BarterClub,

Good. That practice needs to stop. This will help USPS as well if they win

BarterClub,

Yes but they can use it as a platform.

BarterClub,

Hey. I finished the first season.

BarterClub,

Should be at least onc a month. Good start though

BarterClub,

Yes. I have this issue in a new subs that people want to lurk but not post. Really hard to keep posting.

‘Ranting, rambling, and paranoid’: Federal appeals court suspends 96-year-old judge until she passes mental exam (lawandcrime.com)

Judge Newman has threatened to have staff arrested, forcibly removed from the building, and fired. She accused staff of trickery, deceit, acting as her adversary, stealing her computer, stealing her files, and depriving her of secretarial support. Staff have described Judge Newman in their interactions with her as “aggressive,...

Microsoft May Exit Gaming Business If Game Pass Subscribers off Console Don't Increase Enough by 2027 (wccftech.com)

Spencer said in no uncertain terms that Microsoft could exit the gaming business if this projection became reality. Microsoft needs the light green and blue segments (PC and cloud) to get much larger and much faster by fiscal year 2027, or it could opt out of the business altogether....

BarterClub,

Click bate title. Just a slide of what they think they will hit. Microsoft is not going to drop gaming when it just spent how much on studios?

BarterClub,

True but aren’t they spending billions for Activision and Bethesda?

Much bigger than millions

BarterClub,

Thank you for this. One big feature that was missing as autoplay and embed vids. And now I have it again.

BarterClub,

A CEO who can’t manage. Shocker.

BarterClub,

It’s just a number. Play the games you like and don’t care what others think.

BarterClub,

98% here. Very heavy usage

BarterClub,

Kinda. About 5 hours with screen on.

BarterClub,

To be a bigot? And to discriminate? That’s your rationale to ban people?

BarterClub,

So am I. Still don’t think a blanket ban on the LGBT was the right call

BarterClub,

Ability to message mods. A lot of what automod on Reddit can do.

BarterClub,

Ugh. I was trying Firefox, but there are too many extensions I use that use Chromium that I need. I’m too torn on what to do.

EPA Approved a Fuel Ingredient Even Though It Could Cause Cancer in Virtually Every Person Exposed Over a Lifetime (www.propublica.org)

The Environmental Protection Agency approved a component of boat fuel made from discarded plastic that the agency’s own risk formula determined was so hazardous, everyone exposed to the substance continually over a lifetime would be expected to develop cancer. Current and former EPA scientists said that threat level is unheard...

BarterClub,

Thanks for this. Made a easy one to sign onto. resist.bot/petitions/PHITGL

BarterClub,

I don’t mind what the servers admins need to do. But please don’t take quotes out of context.

“With the cumulative updates Users may show/hide avatars, show/hide scores, show/hide NSFW content, show/hide read posts, show/hide notifications for new posts, block users, block communities, report direct messages, mods can distinguish a comment to sticky it to the top of a post. Users may set their feed in their account settings to determine if the default feed is local (hexbear.net only), subscribed (user subscribed communities only), or all (all posts on unblocked communities on federated instances).

Hello users of Hexbear in the next couple of weeks (exact date will most likely be somewhere around the 5th of August) we will be taking the site down for approximately three hours to update to lemmy 0.18.3 and begin federation., as we prepare for federation we wanted to create a primer for etiquette when engaging in the fediverse.

Please read and respect the rules of the community instance in which you are posting/commenting. Please try to keep the dirtbag lib-dunking to hexbear itself. Do not follow the Chapo Rules of Posting, instead try to engage utilizing informed rhetoric with sources to dismantle western propaganda. Posting the western atrocity propaganda and pig poop balls is hilarious but will pretty quickly get you banned and if enough of us do it defederated. Realize that you are a representative of the hexbear instance when you post on other instances.

Know that your posts, comments, and DMs involving communities/users of other instances are stored on those instances databases, while delete requests are sent there is no guarantee they will be honored, especially if a different platform is involved (mastodon, etc).

In addition, a reminder that you may set your feed or search to local/subscribed/all and block users/communities to have a greater control over what content you have. Local is Hexbear only, subscribed is communities from hexbear and federated instances that you have specifically subscribed to, and All is hexbear + all federated instances. There will be a pinned post in the !hexbear community where you can nominate instances for our allow-list or block-list.

In closing, I want to remind everyone that the moderation policy of Hexbear communities will not change and will be strictly applied to any users from a federated instance. While we are not responsible for moderation policy of remote communities our admins do see reports you make of posts/comments on federated instances, and we are able to remove them, while not actually deleting the post/comment it does hide it so Hexbear users cannot see/interact with it.”

BarterClub,

Everyday. Playing wow right now.

BarterClub,

Looks like two severs need to be blacklisted.

BarterClub,

I feel more companies will just leave or reduce rather than give in.

BarterClub,

I’ll help if you can’t find someone. Pst

BarterClub,

This seems like a very normal thing with all social media. Now if the server isn’t banning and removing the content within a reasonable amount of time then we have major issues.

Seems like if you talk about Mastodon but not Twitter or Facebook in the same post it makes it feel like one is greater than the others. This article seems half banked to get clicks.

BarterClub,

Fuck patent trolls. Patents should only be public domain after a few years and you have to have a working prototype to prove you can even do it.

Another reason why fines need to % based and off your tax returns. No one is treated unfairly if they have a lot or not much.
