It's definitely an intelligent based issue, not necessarily age.

There are many issues besides AI stuff that are causing this strike.

Yes, with the quick emergence of AI in all industries, we do need strong workers rights agreements and laws to address it, but AI isn't really the primary issue.

People pick positions in these arguments that are too stringent and not realistic. There will be places where AI is useful in this industry. The union just needs to make sure AI isn't abused in order to completely replace certain types of laborers.

Ok so there you go. If you ever need to help someone understand why their political viewpoints are bad, you can just show them what Russia is doing.

Yeah man... It's not what he's saying that is losing him money... he's just completely lost the ability to effectively run a company.

I like this

The only good Reddit is a dead reddit!

I think part of it is his own hubris through. His head is so far up his head by now that he though he knew better. It's the same reason why Super Heavy destroyed itself on first launch. He thought he was smarter than his engineers and forced them to go without a proper launchpad.

Aye!

OPs example also applies to games they never intend to release on PC. It's not like I was going to buy a Switch anyway.

This is honestly one of my biggest fears, as an instance owner, because it's really hard to stay on top of this. Unless you only explicitly federate with known-good instances, the likelihood of this happening is very high.

That's why strong moderation is so important. These wide-open instances (even lemmy.world is too lax on account and community creation) are a major risk.

A complete lack of documentation has made the whole process of converting to Lemmy a massive pain in the ass.

Another main problem is that it's not working how it's designed.

If an instance gets bogged down, or an instance is misconfigured, then data doesn't always replicate. Comments go missing from certain instances, etc.

The most basic explanation I can give is that: yes, instances can communicate with each other, but the don't share data automatically. A user from instance A must go interact with data from instance B by directly browsing to it via the correct URL string (instanceA.com/c/community@instanceB.com), and then interact with content in that community. Data from that specific community will then show up.

That's a large part of the reason that smaller instances have partial data from larger ones. Their users haven't interacted with enough communities outside their own instance.

... if it isn't already, it really should be.

Lemmy.online was taken down, from what I can tell. Pretty much everyone told that admin what he was doing was a bad idea and something that no-one wanted. Most instances defederated the site and I think he gave up.

I think a key point that a lot of people don't understand is that data from communities on different instances doesn't replicate to your instance unless a user cross-subscribes to that specific community. If you build an instance and want !memes@lemmy.world to show up on your instances ALL feed, you have to subscribe to it with at least one account by browsing to your@instance.com/c/memes@lemmy.world and hitting the sub button. Only then will the content replicate.

Server federation between two instances doesn't magically connect all the communities, but once the users have subbed, they'll be able to see the content they want to see on these smaller instances. The process to get all the data replicated over is just a little more convoluted than it should be.

There are many instances that have 50k+ bot accounts because they didn't protect their sign-ups. Those instances should be defederated by everyone until they get cleaned up.

Not de-federating for political reasons is a personal preference and one that you are free to have, but if you aren't protecting the fediverse from security risks like bot swarms, you're doing more harm than good.

Honestly this is one of the major failures of how schooling works currently. Because everything is so generalized, people fresh out of HS have very little value to any real job. They also have very little understanding of how real jobs work.

Most people just end up taking a job because they know someone that helps them. They end up in whatever industry that is and go from there. It don't have a lot to do about what you "want" to do with your life and more about the necessity of having money to survive.

ha what kind of questions are you asking that need TOR 😆

I think the question is: what steps do I take to get the admins attention.

Is it just to make a post here? Is there a support community? Is there a way to submit a ticket? Is there someone to email?

It's crazy how many people will just click accept on security warning them that an app will access literally everything on their phone.

It's also crazy how many people don't even know that Threads is Meta... where the f have these people been for the past 10 years?
