Me and Linux, sneaking in the back door!


So it should work like it does with my tablet and phone. One being the primary the main profile/phone and the other being secondary side profile/tablet.


I mean, either they’re saying I’m tough, flexible and elastic canal of pleasure and beauty that can bring life into the world in the right circumstances; or they’re saying I’m a much loved mini predator that may cause some trouble with native birds, but purrrs really cute.
I’m not seeing a drawback here


Ah, they just opened up the ability to connect devices to an account. I have it on my tablet and phone simultaneously. The tablet only fetches messages when I open the app though. Not sure if that’s intended, or something about my device, and I actually prefer it to notifications on both anyway; which other messagers do on the same devices.
I’m not sure how it would work on separate profiles on the same device though. If it’s one account, it would seem strange if it did work fully since they’re both linked to the same number/account. Two accounts might work, I dunno
No, no, sorry, not fake or gay enough. This has to be ai hallucination rather than genuine greentext


Apparently, some kind of runner’s tracking service?


Gotcha! I stay confused about it lol.
Fuck this English!
That whole skit was brilliant :)

You know how you throw a party, and that one drunk neighbor shows up, pisses on your shrubbery, and cops a feel off your mom?
It’s okay to escort him out the door when he shows up at your cousin’s bat mitzvah before he can cause trouble there.


The good doctor has been a very, very naughty doctor and will take their punishment like the dirty little pig boy they are.


We really need a clueless user acronym lol. Or maybe noob user? I dunno, something to cover when the situation is just a matter of stepping in a cow patty while walking in your living room. Wtf is it doing there? Oh, my brother is taking the piss again.
Some communities aren’t exactly normal, but you’d have to already be familiar with the fediverse and how some instances/communities are to know that you can’t expect genuine discourse (be it from trolling, satire, or just batshit crazy mods/admins).
That’s what you ran into here. Wesker is… well, Wesker, and that means a lot of weird shit mingled in with some otherwise entertaining shit. You got hit with the weird shit this time. You didn’t do anything wrong, you just ended up in a crack house while looking for epsom salts to soak your bunions.
Edit: also, you were correct and thank you for giving that information to someone with good manners the way you did :). Some folks get nasty about it


That’s the one!


Trying to wrap my head around how that rule was chosen. I can’t see any way to twist it around to fit.
I could see arguments about it being off topic for the community, I could see it maybe fitting rule 1 if you stretched that one far enough, at least the first comment you quoted here. But it would be a stretch because while the tone is aggro, it’s still phrased well enough to go after ideas more than people, so I’m struggling to see that.
Which leaves me at PTB. I can’t see any justification for the rule they used at all, nor any other rule applying enough to think they maybe just hit the wrong key and it was supposed to be a different rule number. That’s the only possible way I could see it being anything other than PTB, and it would still point to some poor quality moderation
Edit: dug a little deeper, and I am fully PTB on this, no doubts or maybes. It’s a blatant suppression of a stance the mod disagrees with, but isn’t in the rules in any way good sense can connect. The comments OP was responding to in the quoted segments in this post were most definitely aligned with a specific stance, and OP’s responses matched the tone of them well within reasonable limits. That means that only removing one side of the discussion shows a bias that can’t be supported by established rules.
Which, in terms of PTB, having shitty rules still doesn’t make it okay to ignore them, that’s why we can block communities and urge change via admins. But they didn’t even bother to include their particular beliefs as a rule so that everyone knows going in what the line is. That means it’s personal and not applied evenly.
Sorry you got hit by the PTB hammer there squirrel, sopuli is usually the least PTB prone instance I’ve run across, so it’s on the shocking side for me. Shocking enough that if I were on that instance, I’d be messaging admins about it because I know that’s not how they roll


They paused it in favor of other things like the new community one in .world (I think that’s where it is?).


Yeah, no matter your political leanings, you gotta approach the fediverse in reverse of the way reddit worked. Reddit, you went and subbed to the things you were interested in and only went to the all feed if you wanted random discovert.
With lemmy, piefed and mbin (or kbin, whichever is still in use), you have to default to the all feed because there’s only so much activity per community, which means discovery is much harder and your subscribed feed takes months sometimes to get filled in with useful things. It’s more efficient and enjoyable to spend the time pruning out the non enjoyed stuff from the all feed so that you have access to more things overall.
That’s helped by app that have filters. You can weed out a lot of bullshit just with keywords preventing specific topics coming up even in communities you are in.
The fediverse is more work on the user’s part to make work. I don’t consider that a bad thing overall, but it does make it hard for ex redditors (aka r/effugees) to on board, and can be confusing for total newcomers to threaded forums.
Tbh though, ten plus years ago, the initial reddit experience for a noob there was worse in many ways. Hell, outright hostile at times, if you were a noob that dared speak your mind against the zeitgeist of a given sub. At least here, you usually only run into that if you’re not fairly solidly leftist, or try to hate on linux. That’s much easier to deal with imo.

Alas, it’s always strange how someone can be so vehement about something and still be vehement about the thing they care about doing what they think is being done.
I get the urge for jewish people to support each other, and the one country in the world that’s “theirs”. Totally understandable.
But when that country does the very things the people fear being done to them again, there’s that lack of sense to see the hypocrisy of it.
It’s sad


Well, there’s no acronym for this. We have CLM (clueless mod) for when a mod just doesn’t know what the hell they’re doing.
We need a CLU for when a user steps into a trap lol. Some accounts on the fediverse are known for some variety of fuckery or another, and it isn’t really power tripping when one of those mods engages in their known form of fuckery. It’s like buying a used Ford Pinto; yeah, you should be able to buy a car and expect it to behave like a car should. But most people know you just don’t buy one unless you’re looking for trouble; so only noobs and the terminally unconcerned will buy one.
Linux sucks is a known troll community, run by a known troll. But there’s no sticker on the window to tell people that. So if you aren’t a lemmizen that’s been around for a while, it’s easy to get suckered in.
That being said, there is also a tiny bit of YDI here as well. If the community wasn’t a troll, you did go into a community named “Linux sucks” and try to post about something other than Linux sucking. It would be like coming here to praise some user that made a great post; nothing wrong with the content, but it just ain’t the place.
That’s what she said
