I think the ammount of “hate” Db0 has been getting lately makes people kinda blind to it.

So you didnt just called the entirety of the instance a “bunch of anti human dorks looking at a feed of robot slop”?

Because it sure sounded like you did.

I sort of don’t feel comfortable joining a bunch of anti-human dorks looking at a feed of robot slop.

That was uncalled for, lol. In my experience we are a very diverse group of dorks and I sort of dont feel comfortable with antagonizing attitudes such as yours anyways, so, thanks.

I dont understand how this prevents an instance being “ruined” by one person or what the anarchist nexus actually is.

Is it just redundancy? Creating alternative instances and services in the hands of different people so if one dies for whatever reason we have somewhere to migrate. Or is it something more complex. Either way I think its cool to have alternatives and a strong community that wont die based on one persons actions/circumstance and nice that you guys are taking care of us (thanks! ^.) but, if its “something more complex”, I would appreciate an explanation for dumdums pls.

I dont think this is what you are talking about but Im curious; Would something like a p2p social network be possible? like everyone who uses it also hosts a little of it so no one single person, jurisdiction or server is trully in controll of it. Just asking for your expert opinion, not making a request.

TIL. Thanks! ^.

Unlikely. The interference from the electric motor just worked because analog TVs used to recieve a (weak) analog signal via antenna.

That may be right, like I said Im not an expert. But when I was a kid we had a tv that misbehaved when the washing machine was working even when watching through composite.

Just guessing here, im no expert.

Could be interference from the vacum. Some old tvs and depending on the electrical circuit they are plugged in dont like when high powered devices are running. A bad electrical circuit can aldo cause this, try plugging it to a regulator.

Badly tunned. Some tvs allow for fine tunning of the chanel they are “listening” to

Bad cable, even if it works on other tvs. Some tvs handle “weak” and/or “dirty” signals better than others.

Bad modulator. Same as cable

Bad tv. In my experience capacitors die and can cause those kinds of failures but I wouldnt recomend poking inside a crt tv if you dont know what you are doing.

BTW, thats a pretty TV. Hope you get it working.

The best unintentional comedy in recent years.

It does to me. When I first joined the fediverse i was on kbin where votes were public and it made me think twice if something was truly downvote worthy then I got on fedia.io where downvotes were hidden and I caught myself downvoting more and more comments that I disliked or disagreed with wothout them being inherently “bad” coments. Then here I’ve been trying to be more concious of how I vote but, tbh, is kinda hard to keep my inner redditor under control when I think I can get away with it. A few days ago I learned about the lemvotes thing and that has reminded me of keeping my voting habits under controll, I know i should be mindfull of it regardless but is somewhat easier for me when someone might be watching.

Against. Votes being public makes me vote better. It stops me from angrily downvoting stuff I dont like when im in a bad mood.

Been in it for the last couple months. The thing is, im too poor and kinda scared to seek diagnosis

Since like a month ago youtube started auto translating to english videos that are in my language (spanish) and translating to spanish videos in english.

I have the wild guess that this was done with trans people in mind.

Thats an awfuly convenient incompetence for the ruling class then.

Also, I dont know how things are where you live, but here in méxico we keep hearing, year after year, how topics and subjects are removed from school plans. Seems like a very obvious effort to “teach less” every year.

I searched for “Katie Sponsler I have been told” found the thread but it had been deleted from twitter. Fortunately, someone had archived it

Its been a while since I read about Haiti, but if I remember correctly, several years after haiti’s revolution the french threatened them with warships demanding payment for the “loss of property” (aka slaves and stolen land) in exange of diplomatic recognition of their country and independence.

This is president Donald Trump. A little, rotten individual who rose to power on the ladder of individualism, indiference and naivety. He will soon demonstrate to a nation that the roads of neoliberalism and faux democracy may twist and turn in all directions, but they will all lead in the end… to the Twilight Zone.
