ooo thats a good point. A lot of those IP protection companies seem very trigger happy.

Light pollution makes me so sad. You have to get so far away from cities to not have the all encompassing glow of the cities to not affect your view of the sky.

Ad companies are often payed on "impressions" which bots that click on a link can count as. Or they are payed upfront for a ad campaign in both of those cases the incentive is to make it seem like as many people are clicking the link as possible.

I've genuinely considered getting a deny.defened.depose. tattoo but I think that'll have to wait for a while considering where they are sending tattood people now.

Why is this NSFW? I'm genuinely asking because I feel like I see a lot of things that are tagged NSFW that just aren't?

Truly only someone who has read theory would understand this. Oh great theory reader what wisdom do you have.

I may not be a lawyer but I'm pretty sure that's not how things work.

Oh im aware. Was simply trying to figure out how this person came to the conclusion.

Probably a waste of time because they are likely a troll (especially with the way that they talk about drag) but I do try and understand peoples hangups when they exist.

I don't get how people can still say that someone might be overreacting when we litterally sent an innocent man to a work camp and said "oops can't get him back"

The Rubicon is miles behind us at this point. Either prepare for war or prepare to flee.

Ok well here I go playing devils advocate again. There is a lot of discussions on trans issues on this site and there are more than a few times where I have seen transphobia being accepted by the instance. I stumbled across a post on grad that was quite literally saying that trans issues where invented by the bourgeoisie to incite conflict in the lower class and people were agreeing with the post.

I am not saying that it is everywhere and there are a lot of very accepting people but if you see enough posts like that in a short period of time it could very well colour your perception of lemmy negatively.

TIL Australians are on a different calendar.

I refuse to read the series until he either dies or it is completed. He is the reason that I never read books that are not part of a finished series (with the exception of Brandon Sanderson because he has a track record that shows that he will complete them)

Did you see the stat that 20 to 30% of the US population supports the annexation of greenland? that group is too far gone to ever be brought back.

I would if we are going this way I think that the most traceable immigrant in my family came from Quebec. I would be ok with getting sent their if they would take me.

I can genuinely only assume that I am missing 5 hours in my day. I have no clue how people are able to do so much with the time that they have.

I use the aquaphor sunscreen ones and they are the only ones that have had a continuous positive effect on my lips.

Thats really unfortunate. Hardware support on linux is really hit or miss and until it is seen as a worth while investment to make sure that products work well on linux by the manufacturers it will remain that way but I can not fault anyone for going back to windows when things on their system just will not work.

I may be a little weird in this respect but the loss of a pet has always hit me harder than the loss of a family member. I lost my great grandmothers and my grandfather and felt much less upset than when I had to BE my dog.

I can't decide if I prefer XP or 7 I never actually daily drove XP at home because I am too young but I remember it being great on the school computers.

People really do refuse to understand that telling someone to read x section of a manual is not that same as here is a manual that I haven't checked to make sure actually contains the information you are looking for, good luck come back if you've read it three times and its actually not in there.
