How good is Lemmy dealing with censorship and why does the sign-up process on lemmy.ml involve having to copy a sentence from "The Principles of Communism"?

  • The .ml admins are, to put it mildly, far left. That's why it's great to have other instances like lemmy.world, feddit.org etc. If you don't agree with how the admins run an instance you can make an account somewhere else without missing out on content.

  • I've always thought of Dr Pepper as either a can or a company, never a person, let alone specifically enough to have a gender.

    • Straight men, what's the weirdest thing you've been told you can't do because it's gay?

  • They're puttin' cameras in the cars to turn the friggin' trucks gay! (/s for those who don't know the reference)

  • A guy on YT used to (or still does idk) upload entire FSD trips after every update. I haven't watched any lately but the trend was that the software was improving with some regressions every now and then, which were fixed in the next updates.

    • What podcast do you enjoy so much you binge old episodes of?

  • Ty and That Guy, if you're into movies. They are Ty Frank and Wes Chatham. The Podcast started as an episode by episode discussion oft The Expanse (Ty was an Executive producer and co-author of the novel series and Wes played Amos), but they branched out to just talk about any movies they like. Amazing insider knowledge there.

    • What are politically progressive Tesla owners doing with their vehicles now that Musk is transparently in bed with the opposite end of the political spectrum?

  • If I had a Tesla, I would look into selling it, but I wouldn't be in a hurry if it's still in working order. Replacing a working car is neither environmentally nor economically sustainable.

  • I think this is why Fairphone chose an SoC that is usually used in industrial/IoT hardware for the FP5. They'll apparently get software support from Qualcomm until 2028.

    • Yesterday in Kroger (a supermarket for you non-Americans) I saw a bunch of cans of potato salad. Why would someone buy canned potato salad?

  • Naturally, I'm hated by both sides.

    As you should be. Though a bit of mustard is also good in the mayo version.

  • Mayo vs vinegar is kind of an actual debate in germany. The civilised side and the vinegar people are mostly blissfully unaware of each other until they develop righteous hatred for the other salad as soon as they learn of it. I heard the vinegar version is eaten warm, which sounds even worse. I would say both are authentic, but vinegar potato salad is authentically horrible.
    Storebought potato salad will also at best get people talking behind your back in germany, no matter which kind.

  • Trump was shot at at a rally. Grazed his ear, his security escorted him off stage after a minute or so. There's a photo of him with a bloody ear, surrounded by his bodyguards, fist raised, with the flag in the background. Crazy good photo, arguably historic already.

    • Sorry I can't do it.
