  • Mander doesn't defed either, which is why I chose it.

  • Are mastodon users stupid or just on a which hunt

    Yes

    • Which project would be best for a local community hub?

    Jump

  • Pretty sure lemmy can have the defaults set to local only, so you can keep the federation on, but by default local users only see local stuff.

    • Does the excessive use of fertilizers and insecticides make the food grown in them not that healthy?

    Jump

  • I hate to be "that guy" but this almost certainly depends on the specific fertilisers and insecticides used.

    • What uses of the name of a video game don't infringe on their trademarks? (Edit: clarified)

  • Mastodon and witchunts, name a more iconic duo.

    • If I bought a house with a parcel of land, and a local concrete company owned the mining rights to that land; is there anything I could do that would prevent them from ever using those rights?

    Jump

  • Landmines

    For legal reasons that's a joke.

    • Webcam on/off: workplace vs political spaces

    Jump

  • webcams demand you to be presentable

    Ateast half of you, lol. Zoom has built in filters that help with this. Also sitting further away from the webcam, using a diffusion filter, and/or just using a really bad webcam can help.

    and make your space presentable.

    Background blur and virtual backgrounds help here.

    • Why has our society accepted the mantra of "Don't let people take advantage of you" rather than focusing on "stop taking advantage of people"?

    Jump

  • I find that phrase is most often used to dismiss those who try to help people in need.

    • Pay up now or we will sell your information to random corporations.

    • CDC orders mass retraction and revision of submitted research across all science and medicine journals. Banned terms must be scrubbed. (Including gender, transgender, pregnant person, LGBT, and more)

    Jump

  • This is pretty dumb even by trump standards. You would think the right of all people would know that trying to ban terms will just result in new euphemisms and jargon being created.

    Most of the research caught up is probably going to be using the terms incidentally (for instance, a drug study that happens to mention participants were AMAB) and this will cause a bunch of paperwork and probably just end up being changed to something like "gametically" or "chromosomally".

    • Lemmy.ml and its moderation, am I getting something wrong?

    Jump

  • If you interpret their sub rule "Posts must be relevant to the open source ideology" in the strictest sense then I guess anything about FUTO is against their rules, since it isn't open source.

    Still seems a bit dickish to delete comments like that. ĀÆā \ā _ā (ā ćƒ„ā )ā _ā /ā ĀÆ

  • This may be your client or instance, I don't see this on this post on lemmy.

    • How can I let go of the anger and sadness towards my father?

    Jump

  • You don't really give enough detail to give specific advice. All I can say is I left it too late to reconnect with mine and it's one of my biggest regrets.

    • Roman Abramovich may owe UK Ā£1bn in unpaid tax.

    Jump

  • investment decisions were not really taking place in the BVI. Instead, one of Abramovichā€™s closest associates appears to have been controlling the companies from the UK.

    I always assumed that's how all BVI companies worked.

    • Led by RFK Jr., Conservatives Embrace Raw Milk. Regulators Say Itā€™s Dangerous.

    Jump

  • The only half reasonable argument I've seen is that requiring pasteurisation (supposedly) makes it difficult for small dairy farms that want to sell direct to consumer, and forces them to sell to large milk companies for a far lower price. I have no idea how valid that argument is.

    • What piece(s) of pop media have you not consumed that people would think you weird for not having consumed yet?

  • I've never seen a (modern) marvel movie, despite being a fan of the comics and cartoons as a kid.

    I've never seen a harry potter film.

    • DeepSeek R1 Is Reportedly Running Inference On Huawei's Ascend 910C AI Chips, Showing China's Growing AI Capabilities

  • Inference? It's the actual running of the ai when you use it, as opposed to training.
