Stockholm Syndrome isn’t a real thing.
“Stockholm Syndrome” was invented by police to discredit a female hostage
If the prime minister told me “You will have to content yourself that you will have died at your post” I wouldn’t trust the authorities either. Being a bank teller shouldn’t mean you have to die for your employer or for the police.
I’ve never used inoreader, but Wikipedia lists it as “Freemium”. It’s not FOSS
Yup. From the article:
Payments of the bonds to the descendants of creditors was only finalised in 2015 when the British Government decided to modernise the gilt portfolio by redeeming all remaining undated gilts.
Since 2018, numerous Freedom of Information Act requests have been sent to the British government and Bank of England for the names of those who were paid with the bonds, of which all were denied.
Britain paid reparations to the slaveowners and their descendants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slave_Compensation_Act_1837
The last check went out in 2015. So yes, people alive today benefited from this. directly.
If they want to make it fair, they should pay reparations to the descendants of enslaved people and/or take back the money they gave to slaveowners.
I haven’t tried thrive in a while. I hear they’ve switched engines again, to Godot this time. Is it playable? Is it fun? Do they have more than the single-cell phase?
interesting.
the default config file is basically “Drew’s preferences watered down a bit for a general audience”
alacritty used to be Drew’s preferred terminal for sway.
sway does not come packaged with any terminal.
foot does not come with sway. why do you think foot comes with sway? foot and sway are unrelated.
they’re both good wayland software, though
there’s https://kbin.social/m/tokipona on kbin, but it’s kinda quiet for now.

Yes. American politics are that silly.
Nope. The Business Source License isn’t an open source license. https://opensource.org/licenses/ (not to be confused with the Boost Source License, which is open source).
I think you’re missing the forest for the trees here.
PeerTube accounts are for video makers, not video watchers. If I want to watch a PT video, I can do so without an account. If I want to leave a like or comment, I’ll do so from my mastodon or misskey account. The reason Peertube servers don’t tend to federate with each other is because they don’t need to: they federate with mastodon/misskey/pleroma servers for the people who want to watch. (also, the https://spectra.video/about/follows page OP linked seems to ignore non-peertube follows?)
As for finding new videos on PeerTube, I recommend using sepiasearch.org
db2 can’t tell whether this post is satire.
I’d appreciate a content warning or marking your post as nsfw when you post gore. I did not want to see that last panel.
the things you like about Reddit didn’t exist when Reddit was the new alternative to the enshittification of Digg. KBin is brand new and Lemmy was not much more than a tankie hub until recently.
KBin and Lemmy will build the communities you’re looking for over time. The question is: do you want those communities to develop under the shadow of the same algorithms, bots, and content you see on corporate social media, or do you want something new?
it’s more like suspending someone who has engaged in bad behaviour in the past and is likely/promising to do it again. if you own your own fediverse site, you decide what the rules are and how to enforce them.
the difference between the fediverse and the corporate-controlled social media sites is that you can actually enforce your rules against larger companies on your own corner of the internet.
For those who don’t know, the strategy is called Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish. The phase comes from Microsoft who used this to (try to) crush competing document editors, Java implementations, browsers, and operating systems. Other big tech companies employ similar strategies.
Facebook coming to the Fediverse is the Embrace phase of this process and that makes Mastodon, Lemmy, Kbin, Misskey, and Akkoma the competitors.
It’s a meme. This image shows a lemmy user asking a highly technical question and a caption saying that that is the least technical user, implying that all other lemmy users are even more technical.
