  • Be nice and respectful to them and masculinity. Like "It's masculine to protect the oppressed"

    Don't belittle anyone for that matter, such as based on race, gender or religions, even if you're upset at that grouping.

  • New platforms can set up shop and already have an existing userbase/contentbase to show. The main issue with setting up, let's say, an Instagram competitor, is that nobody uses it, so nobody will use it as it lacks content. ActivityPub removes this problem. If someone wanted to set up their own competitor to Mastodon, they can. People can use it and tap into the existing userbase.

  • The most they can do is add a load of more users to the fediverse then take them away again. For them to successfully EEE the fediverse, it would require convincing existing fediverse users to switch to threads. I cannot see that happening on here on any noticeable scale.

    If anything, Bluesky is the bigger threat as it touts itself as "decentralised" in order to gain users who would have otherwise gone to Mastodon, then easily pull the plug.

  • This isn't a "brexit rule" and it's disgusting for The Guardian to frame it that way as using someone's suffering to make a point about Brexit.

    I know this could be a "if we were still in the EU this wouldn't happen" thing, or dismissed as another "brexit and it's consequences" article, but this shouldn't happen at all- EU citizen or non EU citizen. The fact the guy is an EU citizen is entirely irrelevant.

    Having a salary requirement on a spouse visa is extremely extremely idiotic, stupid, disgusting and an abuse of human rights, specifically article 8. Apparently even Japan is less strict for foreign spouses- and that country is notoriously difficult to migrate to.

    I do not know how more people aren't talking about this. It's essentially a punishment for daring to fall in love with someone who isn't British/Irish

    "Love is love" until you dare fall in love with someone of the wrong nationality, it seems.

  • What even is Web 3.0? I hear it thrown about a lot and something about blockchain which is good for storing cryptocurrencies and nfts and not much else. Maybe a blockchain could be used to decentralise DNS? Or maybe not. Don't even know if we'd explicitly need that (although having a more tangible ownership of domain names would be cool)

    How do you store and update an HTML page on a Blockchain? And if you could, why? Would it even be efficient causing everyone to update a ledger when you fix a typo?

    It sounds like the type of thing made up by LinkedIn lunatics who have no idea what they're talking about

    Googled it:

    Isn't that just the indieweb and fedi movement? Just get a raspberry pi, plug it into your router and spin up a wordpress instance. Or another fediverse solution to your liking.

  • She has an Instagram page.

    I think the term "Doge" existed separately to the picture of Kabosu, but then was attached to it and popularised.

    Granted, the intention of the creator of dogecoin was likely related to the meme anyway. Like a lot of people for example would write something like "Abide With Me piano cover" or "Danny Boy piano cover" when the tune to those songs are Eventide and Londonderry Air. Abide With Me and Danny Boy are texts which quickly got associated with the tune.

  • Exactly. Isn't this essentially the Israeli Palestinian conflict because the Jews once owned the land? Then the Arabs settled for a few hundred years, then the Jews come back and are like "Mine" and now the Palestinians want it back again? Something like that. Was probably owned by some canaanite tribes before either of them as well.
