They’re not thinking that far ahead and likely give zero shits either way.

I bet they chose to tell this guy they support Russia just to make arresting this guy more abusive.

They do try to entice you with drow ass for being evil, which was a pretty bold move.

There’s a few centuries of the British Empire gaming that concept available for reference, but yes. The British consider the undeclared war that resulted in Singapore to be a success.

I knew a Brit that felt they should’ve kept it with violence, consequences be damned. So there was always the straight-up colonial option.

They also supported Brexit.

I have to use windows 11 and teams for all my work. Teams is being utilized as the central file management system.

The benefit these days is if something doesn’t work I can shrug and say ‘must be ai’ or ‘just windows 11 things’ and generally get tacot agreement.

Now combine this ordeal with getting them to properly sign the damn thing.

Need to get city planners on that bike, not bus drivers. That worker isn’t the reason for the lack of proper infrastructure.

That’s entirely possible, as it’s closer to being the very public conflicts of like a dozen people. You could have blocked one user and inadvertantly insulated yourself from almost all of it.

That looks like two posts from one user.

The piefed dev also posts about tankies on MWoG.

So I feel like there’s bad faith enough to go around, (like with anything where ‘tankie’ comes up). The user posting on .ml there was just outright deleted off Piefed by the dev. There’s clearly an ongoing thing with those right now.

Sounds like a flood control for community creation would be appropriate.

It used to be in the early days instances would vet users at signup. Is there no mechanism for an instance admin to do the same for the creation of a community? They just can’t be vetted before creation?

That got built and implemented before that problem was realized and removed? Damn.

Even so, if the system is tracking votes as reputation, how were the anonymous votes actually tracked? That hash either hid the user or it didn’t.

It seems the chief complaint people have about Lemmy going to Piefed are how admins operate their instances. Not sure any of this will change that, or even help.

Not to mention all these are just a game for trolls and spammers to tool around with. Like: Up/downvotes were built before vote manipulation became a problem.

This stuff is the difference between building a bridge and governing who crosses it.

Thanks, I couldn’t tell that was a bird at first and then the badger was confusing me. Now I know and get it.

Is there something about stuffed animals in the Harry Potter books I am missing?

Which would appropriate for a client-side user-level filter instead of a server-side instance-admin hard-coded setting.

Looks like Piefed really is Lemmy with SpezTools.

current_user.reputation -= 1

So what exactly is going on there?

Likewise. This is my only reoccurring issue I have had since switching, and it isn’t consistent enough to really be a problem.

I do notice that after sleep mode when things work fine I’ll get a notification my displays are detected. So I assume display detection is switched off during sleep mode, and maybe not always turning back on.

Bombskip unless you sequence break for the doublejump before the Inquisition. Otherwise you just have to get the key the normal route after the Reconquista.

They’re not a bot, just a user extremely dedicated to breaking up the Threadiverse over the political comments the Lemmy devs have made.
