Ho my shit that’s like the exact opposite of freedom.

Did u end up making it work?

I run !news_summary@hilariouschaos.com I don’t remove shit unless u are clearly violating the rules its all available via the modlog.

A plague upon the mainstream social media?

Hah, don’t try to play the reasonable middle-ground card with me.

Are you saying what I’m saying is a reasonable middle ground? Cos the rest of your response looks like ur calling my beliefs non reasonable and not a middle ground.

Sure, hide behind semantics. I’m clearly talking about conservatism as an ideology - the same ideology that opposes progress and protects hierarchies of power worldwide. Whether it’s the US Republican party, the UK Tories, or Australia’s Liberal party - it’s all built on the same foundations of preserving privilege for some at the expense of others.

Do you truly believe half the population has absolutely zero good points?

Bull. The policies your “side” keeps pushing TARGET specific groups of people - immigrants, LGBTQ+ folks, Black and brown communities. Don’t pretend it’s about some noble principle when the outcomes keep hurting the same people over and over.

Again its not my side. I choose to believe in some of their beliefs. I’ve lost more liberties under left wing governments than I have under right wing governments.

Are you seriously comparing leftist policies to Nazism? This is peak bad-faith argument. Hitler used promises of “equality” as a very thin veneer to scapegoat Jews and other minorities. Hitler’s “equality” was only (and openly) for his defined “master race” - it was exclusionary by design. Leftist policies aim to include everyone in their benefits. In some cases the same tactics the right uses today, Hitler was far closer to today’s right-wingers than left

I am comparing the stated goals of Hitler to the stated goals of the left. Specific y in the context of tankies who are also supporting genocidal regimes. The lefts equality excludes me, I get paid less for the exact same job, and I get less scholarship opportunities simply because I’m a straight white man. Equality of outcome is actively fucking over my equality of opportunity.

No, we don’t. Being intolerant of intolerance isn’t the same as hating someone for their identity. Calling out bigotry isn’t “hate” - it’s accountability.

Because that’s all the left ever does huh? U seriously believe this? What are the tankies doing? Are they haring or just calling out bigotry?

I refuse to accept this false equivalence.

There u go proving my original point that your too ideologically captured to even consider the other side.

This talking point is so tired. There IS no “equality of opportunity” when systemic barriers exist from birth. Your side loves to pretend we’re all starting on equal footing when that’s demonstrably false.

I not claiming we have equality of opportunity I’m just saying that is what we should be aiming for.

Oh, so you enjoy the benefits of “leftist” policies while arguing against them? How convenient. And yes, your healthcare system IS better than our nightmare - because it operates on COLLECTIVE responsibility rather than individual “freedom.”

I do. I like a lot of leftist policies. I’m just arguing for you to consider that not all leftist policies are good and not all conservative policies are bad.

They’re not all the same, and that was my entire point about. What they lie ABOUT matters.

So u know ur being lied to, being sold a false dream and yet u are defending one lie because u think its a better lie than the other lie.

When progressive leaders lie, they’re promising universal healthcare, living wages, and equal rights they might not be able to deliver.

By equal rights do u mean no rights?

When conservative leaders lie, they’re just literally scapegoating immigrants, LGBTQ+ people, and minorities for all of society’s problems.

I think ur missing quite a bit on nuance here. But yes that’s essentially what they are doing.

I align with the side that at least has to PRETEND to care about making everyone’s lives better, not the side that openly campaigns on making certain people’s lives worse. The fact that you can’t see this difference proves you’re not the “free thinker” you claim to be.

It doesn’t make my life better. It makes my taxes worse, it gives other people more opportunities that I don’t have, it makes my vote less valuable, it erodes my liberties. Its the same its just that the left is scapegoating a different group. The fact u can’t see this proves that your are completely ideologically captured.

Both sides have corruption and liars, but only one side has to appeal to basic human decency to get votes. That’s why it matters who supports whom, even knowing politicians will more likely than not disappoint me.

Basic human decency huh? Do you think you are the righteous justified in any action as the ends justify any means? As I said before that’s what Hitlers followers believed.

Yet here you are, repeating every conservative talking point in the book. You claim to be above it all while pushing the exact rhetoric that maintains the status quo.

I believe I also pushed for free healthcare and bodily autonomy (the right to an abortion etc) I didn’t realise those where right wing talking points.

Save your “both sides” nonsense for someone who’ll fall for it. I’m not interested.

Again proving my original point that you cannot fathom the idea that the other side might have some good points. You are the one who is ideologically captured incapable of individual free thinking.

Hah, no. When I look at the conservative party all I see is hate, hate and more hate.

American political parties do not define political perspective globally. U can have conservative views and still hate what the us conservative party is doing.

You hate the people that are different from you or whoever you’re told to hate. You spend so much time dressing up this hate to make it more palatable for yourself and others, but if you peel it all away, that’s what really drives you and your fellow conservatives and it is just shameful.

Not at all I hate people who oppose freedom and equal ity of opportunity. Turns out thats both parties when it comes to the us.

At least with the tankies, what they do, they do because it’ll bring true equality (or at least that’s what they’re led to believe).

That’s the same thing as what Hitler promised. The ends do not justify the means.

The reign pullers for conservatives tells you to vote for them, support them, spread propaganda for them to hate on a group because some group deserves your hate for one inane reason or another.

The left says the exact same thing for the exact same reasons just they point the hate at different groups of people.

The reign pullers for tankies have to get their support by promising good things like equality, the banishment of the rich, full unalienable human rights to include healthcare.

Equality of opportunity or equality of outcome cos those are 2 very different things. I would argue that’s its a human right to do with your own body as u choose. Its the same right that gives women the right to an abortion that also gives Nazis the right to spew their hate and wave their arms around as they please. You cannot have one without the other.

I’m in Australia where we have free healthcare and I think that it should be a free for all. In fact I’m fighting against the right wingers of my country who are trying to make our system more like your fucked up system.

Yea the reign pullers are lying, they always do that on all sides, but what they have to lie to you about to get you to do the things they want you to do MATTERS.

So why align with any political group if u know they are all the same playing the same games. Pick beliefs u believe in personaly from all sides of political ideology. Tribalism for any side is just as bad as tribalism for any other side do not try justify ur team to urself simply because they are your team.

And the lies they feed you, are disgusting.

I never said I believe the lies I’m simply saying that the side u hate because you where told to hate have some good points. This doesn’t mean I subscribe to all their beliefs nor do I subscriber to all the left wing beliefs.

We all have far more in common than things we don’t. I would encourage you to think/enquire why people u disagree with hold the beliefs they do with an open mind and you might just find u agree.

I love that you think that you are right and that it the people that disagree with you who should change their mind. Have you ever considered that maybe u might need to change ur beliefs as well?

Rule number one of software development is that you NEVER EVER go anywhere near a patent. EVER. If you do they will use that as proof u stole and burn u at the steak.

So domains are recursive tree structures. So u have node com which has a bunch of nodes below it of different domains which can have sub domains etc. Its like this cos that’s how DNS was designed.

Search engines gives scores to domains and pages. When u say that the content origin of ur page is some other domain the search engines will use that knowledge to adjust rating accordingly.

Say u have 2 domains site1.example.com and site2.example.com the search engine will have a rank for site1, site2, and example.com where the rating of both site1 and site2 effect the rating for example.com.

If the content origin for all federated content has the same origin say instance.fediverse.com then the rating for all federated content will be classified as part of fediverse.com and all content will be working together across all instances boosting the fediverse as a single entity.

It would have to be a common domain. So the content origin would have to be something like instance.fediverse.com the common domain needs to be the base level domain.

Federation is a weird one with search engines. Each instance is indexed by search engines directly (if the admins allow it in robots.txt) and the web crawler will then index that Lemmy instance. It used to just be like this and thus a scraper would come across the same content in multiple instances and also find a bunch of back links to said other instances. The search engine would then classify the entirety of the fediverse as an seo hack and ignore it. This issue has since been resolved so now posts include a special HTML tag that tells the web crawler where the original content came from (I assume the instance which manages the content so the communities instance).

What this means is that each instance is individually competing in the search results. When I crawler discovers lemmy.world content through accessing the lemmy.zip instance it knows the content came from lemmy.world and thus rates the lemmy.zip content and by extension the post u where looking for as though it was a lemmy.world page. (I assume all the search providers don’t say how their algorithms work).

Its a shame how this works as it means that each instance has to outperform the competition individually instead of being able to work as a collective. Ideally the fediverse would have a single domain that search engines can be told is the content origin and thus the fediverse would be able to compete as a collective.

PipePipe is still yt but its only a subscription feed and integrates perfectly with other services like peertube

Having multiple extruders is extremely good as u have significantly less material waste. Its especially good for using different support materials.

That’s some sus behaviour

Eternity can do this.

Social networks benefit from the network effect. The ides behind federation is to make the network effect work for everyone by making leaving the system an u tenable position. The beautiful part of federation and activpub in particular is that because all content is shared across the same protocol one service improves all the others. Having a short form video service might not be particularly popular but it will then integrate with the rest of the fediverse improving it and cementing the network effect for all services.

This would be more powerful if we could figure out fediversal accounts tho.

That sounds an awful lot like its the setup for some authoritarian talking point. The whole point of restricting freedom within a society is so that the total amount of freedom is increased. For instance ur freedom to murder people is being restricted because killing someone denies that person of their own freedom to live. Ur night out murdering is less units of freedom than an entire lifetime of freewill.

The only possible way to interpret the lecturers statement that is logically congruent is to claim that your freedoms are being restricted so that your safety can be increased by reducing the risk you pose to yourself. Its literally you being told that someone else will be making your decisions on your behalf because your too dumb to decide for yourself. Pure authoritarian bootlicking.

Its the same argument used by extremists to deny women’s rights to get an abortion.

Tbh I see it as free entertainment. Doing dishes and telling some guy that u computer needs a windows update and after he says to click the ignore button 500 times to say u want to update to ensure no scammers can hack you.

Ahh I’d never get one for myself. But for the people who don’t care about freedom, ownership, and money its great.

I defiantly got onto the call more list at one point but I kept being the biggest pain in the ass and one day they just stopped completely. I once had these one people on the phone for 6hours straight and went through about 4 transfers in the process. They connected with my VM at one point where I was live developing a fake bank website I had passed through from my host. Did u know u can embed the password game into a website extremely easily and conveniently I needed a password reset and needed help. Yes I stole the idea from kitboga.
