When Indians want to chat online, I don’t think they’ll speak English with other Indians.

American culture has and likely always will dominate any general audience English speaking online community. It’s just a matter of population.

I never missed a US instance because LW is so US focused I assumed it was the main one.

We don’t need a US instance, we need more users to support active local communities.

You can’t give away free software as open source and then start demanding royalties. Fuck Matt Mullenweg.

Trail of Tears of Joy

It would have to be something like a per-community karma score to ensure it can’t be used out of context and to reduce the benefits of gaming the number.

I could also see a use for per-instance karma which only counts upvotes from users on that instance.

For example if I make a mainstream post on the election at lemmy.world and all the users from Hexbear downvote it, that shouldn’t affect my rep with lemmy.world admins, but Hexbear admins would appreciate knowing their local users consider me unacceptably capitalist.

It was taken out of the API about a year ago if I recall correctly.

It’s a good thing because people tried to use it for moderation decisions like Reddit, but it’s even more of a useless riggable metric on Lemmy.

So the community decided we’re better off without it.

What’s wrong with a little gamification to encourage civic responsibility?

I need another sticker for my coffee jar:

Haven’t seen a lot of ATGM use since the early days of the war. I assume that’s because Russia has mostly abandoned armored assaults.

Or maybe it’s the wrong language for the task. Macromedia flash is pretty good for animated websites, an enterprise asset management system, not so much.

My current cross to bear in an app written in Mulesoft because “it’s great with Salesforce” but completely unsuited for bulk data transfers.

Sucks to be stuck with bad choices made before you got there.

Cool how the second drop caused a SAM to self-launch.

ML defederated and is defederated by a number of instances that don’t get along with their avowedly Marxist Leninist (aka ML) political stance.

I would suggest moving off ML if you are not yourself a ML.

Have you never even tried artisanal cheddars?

That stuff is up there with DOP Parmesan in terms of complexity and price.

You could start by translating the error to english.

Wishful thinking

Sure the economy is bad, but you seriously don’t think they’ll keep spending on the military?

No I think the article is making a pretty reasonable assumption that if Russia does not collapse, they will rebuild their army to the level they have historically maintained it.

You’re basically saying “no way they don’t collapse” but that seems a pretty large speculative leap.

Cause you sound like an unreliable narrator.

When the actions of multiple people on the other side of a story don’t make sense, we’re not getting the whole story.

I’m guessing you cursed out a coworker and not for the first time. Most workplaces will excuse passing profanity more than they will excuse verbal abuse of a coworker.
