Yep. And I’m not against going to basic lynx when needed. But the person I responded to made a very specific implication, and I’d like their opinion.

Allow me to expand my point. If you are using a computing device of any type, you are using the fruits of the labor of IBM, Xerox, and AT&t from the 1950s and 1960s. That means, by your argument, you are glorifying racism, homophobia, sexual assault and xenophobia among other things. You should definitely get off the internet.
What do non-trumpets but still privacy focused people in your circles use?
I might suggest getting off the internet and finding a completely self-sufficient lifestyle then. I guarantee you there are people that you would disagree with in person, in every supply chain.
It’s not technically an arrest. In a high-stakes call, the police will typically detain everybody until they can figure out what’s going on. That means potential victims as well as potential attackers. It’s a safety measure.
Just a thought… How likely are you to grow the community when six of the top 10 active posts right now are in some way complaints about Lemmy? In other words, is this a pro-vegan community or is this an anti-Lemmy community?
For the record, I am perfectly happy to get my vegan content elsewhere- ban away.
Moved to pixel from HTC for the fast software updates. My next phone will likely be a pine phone or something similar; build quality on my last two pixels hasn’t exactly been up to snuff.
It is absolutely the way it works on Reddit. Go into any subreddit and say something factual but unpopular and watch what happens to the vote count.
Not understanding that upvotes are popularity driven might be the first error.
Make your posts, ask your questions, and move on. If people are interested it’ll get traction. If they’re not, expect apathy or downvotes. Just the way it works.
Talking heads and a failing education system.
My company went remote first in April 2020. Even if I left here, there’s no way in hell I’m going back to an office.
I built a kit car, painted a penguin on the side, and forgot to include the telemetry module. Oops.
I think I’ll travel somewhere else.
Garbage. I’m over 50 and I’m not worried.
I know for a fact I’ll be working till the day I die.
I have no doubt that they would, but that’s not one of the variables I’m trying to control. As far as I can tell, time and volume are the only two things that I can play with. They have a 30-minute timer, and cannot take the load-bearing walls down. That means there’s a volume constraint, no matter how many people they have available they can only fit so many in one space. That limits the amount of time they have to actually search, assuming they empty the dwelling. If they don’t empty the dwelling, it sharply limits the number of people they can have searching at any one time. Heavy equipment like an x-ray machine also limits that volume.
With respect to the Britannica, if you’re familiar with them you know they are massive and this one just happened to be my primary research source in high school. I cannot understate the number of flags and paper clips simply destroying those bindings right now. If someone does notice it, I’m relying on running out the clock with them checking every one they see first.
Straighten the paper clip and slip it inside the binding of an old copy of Britannica I have. I got it second hand from a public library, so it has quite a few of the old style anti-theft tags hidden throughout; it also contains quite a few paper clips of many colors I once used as bookmarks.
I use the remaining time to clean the house, making sure to go into the bathroom more than once, moving the toilet tank lid and opening and shutting all of the cabinets every time. If I’m very lucky I’ll be just shutting the medicine cabinet audibly when the investigators walk in. (For those not familiar, many houses built in the mid 20th century in the US had slots in the back of the medicine cabinet where you were supposed to dispose of used razor blades.)
At least they’re finally acknowledging that the base band never really shuts down.
If you bow without rhythm you won’t attract the worm.
Not really, but since I’m not going to find any solutions here and people have it worse, I’ll leave it at that.
Pretty slim pickings there, but I can’t especially disagree. The point of the question really was to allow the poster to explain a very specific implication they made.
