Such a weird rule, but can’t disagree with the supreme court.

I hope it will not be Florida of 2000 election all over again, but in a massive scale.

It’s insane, Gore won by several thousand votes, if not tens of thousands.

I don’t think fusion would be as useful a technology as it would have been a few decades ago. Now renewables (wind, solar, hydro) seem like more and more as the clean and cheap energy of the future. The biggest problem of storage is rapidly being solved with batteries springing up everywhere.

The real problem with fusion is that even if it worked, the plants would be very complex and expensive. It would be much cheaper and reliable to build solar, wind and batteries instead.

Having operational fusion reactors would be cool as hell, but it wouldn’t have that much impact on our lives in the end.

The youngsters are downvoting you, but what you’re saying is sad but true. It’s the reason Bernie never ran as an independent, he knew it would hand the victory to republicans on a silver platter.

That freedom becomes misery on the instant you have to start maintain the code from some other free spirit, whose style is totally different from yours.

I honestly found it funny in a kind of a cute way, but I guess others didn’t feel that way. Oh well, such is life sometimes.

Not to be a dick or anything, but I found it funny that you chose to mention the political career and your opinion of him. Nice touch, but very much irrelevant. Keep up the good work!

Yes, I thought all magic works like that.

I wish this was possible without the whole god thing. What do you do during prayers etc.? Whenever I’ve attended a baptism or a funeral or some such, all I can think about is how much mana the priest is using when casting the bless on the audience. It gets so awkward.

No, it’s actually a comment section for a Youtube video, and it is appropriate to voice an opinion related to it here.

The meme you’re parroting fits better when someone goes wildly off-topic, which is not what happened here.

I think they wanted people who follow orders to the dot, not people who have a sense of humor. Sounds like a terrible place to work, but I still understand their reasoning.

Here is an Iron Law I have learned from two decades on Facebook: If you are 39 years old and married with two children, you do not get this ripped unless you are deeply unhappy.

Oh man, that hurt.

One can tell you’re a quality poster for putting a reference to a freaking programming meme. It is an overkill, but a quality overkill.

Sorry I can’t really contribute to your question, but would anyway like to take the opportunity to air my grievances: I hate Youtube shorts and TikToks with fierce passion. The format of short videos makes sense and is a good idea to some extent, but who the hell decided we’re not allowed to rewind our videos anymore? I want to hunt down that person, go to their house at night and tell them that they are not very good at their job so loud that their whole family can hear it.

Ryan George of Pitch Meetings is great if you’re sick of the formulaic, pandering Hollywood franchise movies.

Dave Borlace has an informative, although a bit dry channel on climate change and clean technology, Just have a think - There’s a lot of unreported innovative stuff out there.

And finally, my favorite, Rollie Williams’ Climate Town - The entertainment + information value of this channel is just unmatched. The creator is a comedian and has a degree in climate science and knows his shit of both worlds.

I’m sure for many trolls the goal is mainly to cause a reaction, and I think the alt-right stuff is an easy way to do so. Maybe that’s a better way to put it.

Then there’s the crowd that populated r/the_donald back in the day. Not sure how much of that was just trolling, but I’m certainly glad not to see that activity here.

I have also noticed the absence of alt-right/populist right-wing people. But that could go under your point 2. It’s refreshing nevertheless.

Also less guerilla marketing. Not missing that shit one bit.

I think Zuck does BJJ, not judo. Which would be even better for the cage fight.

Also, having hydraulic joints and titanium frame helps to absorb any damage Musk could inflict.

Nebula is not bad. I paid for it for a year, but had some issues with not enough content and the buggy UI on Firefox. If Youtube blocks adblockers, I’ll certainly go back to it.

The good thing about Lemmy is that it’s open source. Community requests are easy to make and will be discussed. Creating third party apps should not be an issue either.

The bad thing about Lemmy, on the other hand, is that it’s open source. There’s no VC funding to hire hundreds of overpaid developers to fix things quickly, so we just have to be a bit patient and give the devs time to make the necessary changes.
