This graph really shows how the focus on boomers by millennials and my fellow zoomers is really just a distraction from the real issues of class and wealth inequality.

flamingos,

The most embarrassing thing is that they were so proud of this that they watermarked it.

flamingos,

You consider two councillors that make decisions for just under 300K people to be non-entities? What does someone have to be to be worth reporting on for you?

flamingos,

It amazing that this “you might not like him, but suck it up to get rid of the Tories” attitude wasn’t present when Corbyn was leader. No, it was an endless tide of infighting, coups and splintering. How are we suppose to take these pleas to get rid of the Tories seriously after watching the Labour Right do everything in its power to hand the Tories the last two elections?

flamingos,

I really don’t get your position. You keep asserting that Starmer is “electable,” but here you acknowledge that his action are alienating to both people within the party and outside of it.

The only thing Starmer has going for him is extreme luck. If Boris hadn’t fucked up Covid so bad and made the Tories so unpopular, I doubt Starmer would have the capabilities to win this election.

flamingos,

Provide the ability for users to migrate their account and all associated data (posts, comments, moderation actions, saved posts, etc.) from one Lemmy instance to another.

To implement this feature you’d either have to:

  • Edit the DB entries of every instance to match the new profile;
  • Create copies of the old content on the new instance and federate that out, thus duplicating all the data. You could have it delete the old content, but you’d still need to recreate all the posts and comments.

Either of these would be very susceptible to abuse. Giving bad actors a button to force instances to run hundreds, potentially thousands, of operations probably isn’t the best of ideas.

The person who runs it doesn’t recommend Lemmy because of the political opinions of its main developers.

Kinda funny now given that Eugene of Mastodon has signed an NDA with Facebook.

flamingos,

It’s hard to give a direct source because he’s deleted quite a bit but this thread has a screenshot.

flamingos,

“People pressed into slavery to deliver takeaway” is the kind of dystopian that fiction can only aspire to. Christ.

flamingos,

Everything is biased. Even saying something as simple as “grass is green” is biased, it has the bias of normal colour perception. I’m colour blind and don’t see grass as green.

flamingos,

Writing shit on public toilets is one of humanity’s great pastimes.
