That’s one symptom of car-dependency!

If we had proximity shops minutes away by foot, we wouldn’t do one giant grocery weekly with 30 min commute one way. We’d just buy what we need just passing by.

Entschuldigung, ich lehre Deutsch. Was bedeudet “Bogen nutzen”?

He would still have been attached to her and in the film’s logic, that was the problem. You can bet that there would have been a point where he would have been afraid for her leading to yadda yadda.

What’s the marketing meaning? I only know about the psychological effect of feeling anxious when disconnected or not taking part to an event.

That’s exactly how it works right now with VDI. I’m using one at work.

I think the idea of a megathread is to give the opportunity to avoid a topic that is flooding the community to people not interested.

Bedankt!

Of course. And I’ll continue to do so as long as advertisement is detrimental to my online experience. If it wastes my time by forcing me to watch an ad before a video, if it distracts me from reading a text because of animations, if it tries to scam or shock me, I’m better off blocking it. I’m not against advertisement as communication that a useful product or service exists, I’m against advertisement abuse and greed.

I’ll happily pay for, donate to, or otherwise support services important to me that need and deserve it.

You’re right, it’s a fork of Lemmur

Yes, good point. It’s more like: we as a society must decide what is and isn’t acceptable as far as free speech goes and enshrine this in law. Then it is a matter of applying the laws rather than judging case by case as individuals.

In this case, The political discourse of the devs doesn’t seem directly related to Lemmy’s development. Of course, libre software is very much in line with leftist ideology; what I mean is that they do not seem to impose their views or skew ours through their work as devs. They don’t even use their position as devs to publicize their discourse; people had to dig to find them.

If their political discourse is harmful, I’d argue that it is not to us, as individuals, to condemn them and to choose an adequate punishment, e.g. boycott the seemingly unrelated Lemmy project.

Of course, it is obviously to us, as individuals, to decide if we want to participate on Lemmy, or even donate to the devs for their work on Lemmy. I choose to do both even when I don’t agree with the devs and when I think their discourse about human right in the CCP and Russia might be harmful.

It seems to have become a habit that most good things about the internet is linked to the EU. I’m really grateful. That being said, I hope that Lemmy can become a collaborative project uniting a lot of devs rather than rely on two people.

About the scandal; as long as their opinions do not influence the platform I don’t see them as relevant to Lemmy. If they are illegal, let justice do its work.

I tried the fediverse with Mastodon to replace Twitter, but it didn’t work out. On Twitter, I was exclusively following accounts of personalities/organizations. As these accounts did not make the switch from Twitter to Mastodon, there was little use.

I feel like the fediverse works way better with content aggregation. I don’t really care who specifically is on Lemmy, as long as there is content and discussion. So far it’s been really nice.

I fully agree that it’s simpler to create an account on a centralized website.

In my understanding, your comments have to be stored on a server whatever the centralization. The fact that you can choose on which server they are stored is the decentralization.

On the producer side, Annapurna is a strong quality guarantee for me.
