This feels tantalizingly close to the truth.

What the fuck are “unregretted user minutes”? I regret every minute any user spends on that site, so it should be zero.

Ideas for the new logo? I think he should go with a black-red motif, with lots of right angles.

I’m confused why backups would even matter. Are the servers physically hosted in Mali and the government seized them?

Because if the government just invalidated the domain, that’s completely different. In that case a server device with everything on it still exists in the same place it always did, it’s just DNS that has changed.

(And yes, I understand that losing the domain name and the certs attached to it would be a big deal, but there’s no data loss, hence no need to pull from backups.)

Lol haven’t seen it yet. I rolled the dice

I zoomed in on the notes. I couldn’t make it out completely, but here’s what I saw:

1. No close-ups of Barbie’s feet
2. No close-ups of Ken’s feet
3. Barbie always wearing shoes even in long shots

I think it’s very much like regular ice cream, but a flavor an octopus would eat.

Crab, maybe.

Ah, 25 million per child? Finally a fine big enough to make a tech company feel conseque–

[Touches earpiece] one moment, I’m getting an update–

damn, zing

Bro I wasn’t looking for a technical explanation. I know how they work. We made computers worse. The thing isn’t even smart enough to say “I wasn’t designed to do math problems, perhaps we should focus on something where I can make up a bunch of research papers out of thin air?”

Why is “98%” supposed to sound good? We made a computer that can’t do math good

If your children would just adopt a can-do attitude while they’re mining, they’d be getting promotions

OK, as long as all the well-meaning people stop discussing it, nobody will ever find out about it.

Son, this is not it.

First of all, it would never be applied to all of Lemmy, that wouldn’t make sense and isn’t really possible considering how federation works.

Second, automoderation is a necessary tool to deal with a flood of users on many subreddits, and it belongs in place. Each community has to make its own decisions about how best to moderate, but without automated tools they’re just going to drown. The net effect then would either be to shut down the community or allow the community to exist with no moderation at all.

You do. not. want communities here with no moderation at all.

Encourage communities to use tools that are sane and give you options for interacting with the community, and which don’t harshly penalize you for small issues with your posts, but what you are de facto asking for in this post is chaos for any large community.

“cease”
