grows up

You need to work on your reading comprehension.

Downloading books needs to be the norm for education.

It’s disgusting how we create this culture where those who have wealth get priority access to knowledge that will help them further their wealth.

Publishing shouldn’t even be an industry in 2025.

Or 2024… 2023… etc etc.

Man this generation sucks.

The disparity in wealth should shrink instead of grow.

Sharing software is a tool to achieve that end.

You can also make a torrent very easily, which is the better method.

I disagree. The government doesn’t need to step in and dictate how lemmy moderators moderate.

We just need to build and support communities that don’t abuse mod powers over those that do.

I hope Houthi youth grows up to wage asymmetric war against the West as punishment for these crimes.

Nobody else will punish the West for what it does.

Sigh, more censorship.

We need more lemmy communities that don’t do this.

Kamala would have done the same thing.

Democrats have never shown a willingness to challenge Israel on anything.

The “absolute fucking morons” are the ones who thought kamala would be any different.

Maybe Bernie would’ve done something different, but neo-liberals don’t like him.

Lol. I don’t agree with what this user said, but he should be allowed to say it.

Tired of all this censorship of opposing views. Let me decide for myself what I get to see, damn it!

Removed by mod

Oh, you said you could either “deal with the limitations or go home.” Does “dealing with them” involve mentioning how things can improve?

Does anyone know of lemmy instances without as much censorship?

I’d like to decide for myself what I get to see. There’s a block button for that reason.

Yeah, you’re not allowed to advocate for improvements in any way unless you’re a natural born citizen to whatever country you’re in.

These Linux computers are always scams.

We get worse hardware for higher prices, and they don’t even have to pay for the OS.

Yes, any laptop without an encrypted storage drive will have its data accessible by someone booting from a live USB.

It really is a massive vulnerability, but it’s not well known because so few people even understand the concept of a ‘live USB’ to make it a widespread threat or concern.

So yeah, if you’re ever in possession of a Windows machine that doesn’t have an encrypted disk, you can view the users’ files without knowing their password via a live USB.

It’s also not limited to laptops.

Zross?

X-Cross?

X-ross?

Oh, it’s just pronounced Cross. Always unsure how people who make decisions like these get the jobs they do.

It’s like, they’re rewarded for being stupid.

That’s fine. “Defederation” will have less meaning as time goes on and there are different sections of the fediverse that support different ideals.

The more people that are afraid of “defederation” and adjust their behavior as a result, the more power it has.

No alternate opinions are allowed apparently…

Yeah, mods will just ban us if we get reported enough. It doesn’t matter if the reports or accurate or if we’re actually breaking any rules.

They don’t realize it, but that kind of behavior has a long term effect on the health and perception of the community.

I’m looking forward to the sections of the fediverse that don’t abuse their mod power. Right now we don’t really have any since most of the mods are immature.

Lemmy is definitely turning into an echo-chamber among the bigger instances.

It’s okay, though. Once enough people get censored, it opens up the opportunity for people to start instances that don’t abuse their mod power.
