For the record, I’m not saying I agree with their methods, but I don’t think it’s fair to them either that everyone is acting like they did irreparable harm to the monument.

With options trading, a lot of stock movement is reflective of speculation rather than true value.

To the top with you! I see some opinions quoted, but yours is the right answer.

Does ActivityPub report back bans to the user’s home instance? I could see a moderation tool that let the admin autoban their users if enough federated instances had banned them.

Here’s one: https://kbin.social/m/random/t/1060795 I always see them popping up under random@kbin.social

Bots are already proliferating the fediverse. Kbin is constantly spammed with “buy online drugs here” links. Transparent bots (those that are tagged as bots) try to boost engagement by reposting things from Reddit, but are still perpetuating one of the worst aspects of reddit even if they’re being upfront about it.

I believe Frank Herbert took the stance that once technology gets to that level, it remains static as there is little else to discover/develop.

Whew, I’m glad I’m not the only one.

Everyone has superhero fatigue, seems like a great time to develop another superhero show!

Want to prove to the world you’re the good guys, definitely start by banning news agencies /s

Learn to separate your feelings of a country’s government from the country’s people. I’m sure most Russians are just trying to live their lives like everyone else on this planet. They didn’t get to choose which country they were born in.

If Constellation on Apple TV is right, then it’s an indication that the person has become quantum entangled with their alternative self in another universe.

Good show btw if you are looking for something more psychological with a sci-fi background.

We really don’t tell Musk to go back to his own country enough.

Can you enlighten the rest of us simpletons?
