Joe Biden wants more people to start living in empty offices

    Please add "bugmen" and "bugman" to the slur filter

    They're used as anti-semetic slurs by the far right. There seems to be a proclivity to use the terms as applied to bug-eating politics, but unfortunately the term is simply too associated with anti-semetism and I think particularly given the current conflict it makes good sense to filter it.

  • You can't invade your own territory. By Chinese and Taiwanese law, internationally recognized by the UN (and even the US, as asserted by Blinken the last time he was in China to pretend to be sorry), Taiwan is Chinese territory.

  • So boot camp, as it is full of military exercises, would count as not peaceful?

    This guy's channel is great, but it's not all vegan. Plenty of the recipes are though.

    Replies not showing up

    I'm seeing a recurring issue where I don't have any replies in my inbox, or I have two from fellow hexbears, but then I go to look at a recent comment I'm expecting a liberal to reply to and their reply has been there for some time. It seems the reply inbox is a little inconsistent with federated users maybe?

    Anyway thought I'd share that in case it's helpful. I don't /really/ mind not getting dinged with replies from liberals since my comrades are always happy to carry the load.

  • I agree. The risk of some users doing crazy things - minimizing real world abuse, for example - is real, and shameful. That your account hasn't been banned is pretty suspect of the lemm.ee mods.

  • New Covid wave has begun and masks should be worn again, scientists warn
  • No, but the criteria are determined by science. You should check it out, that science stuff is real neat if you haven't heard of it before.

  • What capitalism does to a guy
  • China must have found the third way because they've got Pizza Hut and they haven't even collapsed yet (insert history of westerners saying China is about to collapse in current year)

  • this tactic of trying to minimize the victims of real abuse by comparing it to posting on the internet is pretty disgusting and reflects poorly on lemm.ee

  • You claim hexbears are brigading, and yet here you are adding nothing to the discussion and spamming. This is both ironic and in extremely bad faith.

  • So the one instance was removed by Hexbear moderators. I love the lemm.ee user's reaction of "whoah you're apologizing for coming across wrong? we should DEFINITELY defederate"

  • Tesla owners are expressing buyer’s remorse - if not by selling their Teslas, then at least with an apologetic bumper sticker.
  • They are extremely mad that car people don't like Teslas, and they post angrily about it on Reddit every hour of every day. Fortunately, Tesla people aren't "car people" so there's really no real life friction other than Tesla dorks probably showing up to cars and coffee all over the nation and feeling personally offended when nobody gives half a shit about their commuter coffin.

  • I just want to second your comment - I agree with everything. I would also add that I read through the OP and was at first heartened by what seemed like a fairly reasonable, even-handed approach, then surprised and disappointed by the progression into reactionary anti-Soviet tropes. Calling anything posted to Hexbear "bigoted" is truly staggering - I challenge anyone to find a space on the internet that is less bigoted than Hexbear. It has shaped and improved me personally through my interaction over its existence. I am a better, less bigoted person today because of Hexbear.

  • that killer app is soon going to be "doesn't have advertising in every menu"

  • Tesla owners are expressing buyer’s remorse - if not by selling their Teslas, then at least with an apologetic bumper sticker.
  • Then why did they discontinue it if it wasn't a stupid idea? Oh well.

    I just want to go into the thing itself a little bit here... What vehicles do we see "yoke" style steering wheels on? Racing cars and karts. Why do we see yokes on those vehicles specifically? Extremely fast steering racks that will go lock-to-lock in a half or quarter turn, coupled with cockpits that either do not allow enough arm movement due to restraints or space to have more wheel movement. Are Teslas cramped inside with arm restraints because they're open-top racecars? Do they have racing racks that go lock to lock in a quarter turn? Are Teslas driven like a racecar, where both hands will always be on the wheel unless you're banging through gears? No.

    It's a child's view of the world that spawned the idea of putting yokes in Teslas, because the child (Musk) saw racecars and was too ignorant to understand why they had yokes. Techbros and their consequences, etc.

  • South Korea's low fertility won't slow down housing prices in time
  • Aren't they increasing automation in response? China also allowed provinces with larger minority populations to have more children than predominantly Han provinces, didn't they? I think they get a pass.
