small note: my comment was removed by admins as an automated thing, no idea if I was report-bombed or not. I also received a warning.

I sent a plea and it was restored, and the warning removed.

Honestly I have the feeling there are so many untold stories about subreddit moderators… It’s really opaque. If you get banned etc nobody can really see it because it’s hidden, so you never have any possibility to see if a ban is justified or not, it’s like a secret court.

I wish the moderation history, like bans, comment removals etc were public. It would be hilarious.

And reddit admins explicitly tell moderators they cannot allow criticism of other subreddit moderators, which reinforce this bubble problem. If you get banned in one sub, you LITERALLY cannot talk about it on reddit, it’s really insane, it’s really shady, that stuff only happens in dictatorships.

I cannot wait for reddit going public, it’s going to generate so much drama, that’s going to be soooo good.

Lemmy instances brace yourself

not going to trust a website that makes money from repairing phones

also a lot of armchair battery scientists in here

Foobar2000 has been here for YEAAAARS, and I don’t think there is a good enough equivalent for linux, and by that I mean playlist tabs, global shortcuts, etc

who cares, that’s too late now

now Hamas will get deleted off the solar system

Netanyahu might be replaced and even if a progressive PM is in power, it’s not like Israel will let terrorists occupy gaza again, it’s going to take years before gaza becomes safe again, it’s going to be occupied by Israel first, and maybe the UN later.

there’s just no way Israel will be fine with terrorists after october 7.

If you make statistics, the left is much cleaner in the EU

You’re angry

I’m a game developer and I’m ashamed by this.

When chip production will halt because of the climate, you will see programmers optimizing their code again.

Jeez I hope this economy crashes.

on one hand, I wish I wouldn’t have to read those headlines because it depresses me

on the other hands, there’s no point in muting that information, because people should know those things and should be angry

I thought “we should read good news”, and then /r/upliftingnews appeared and it was just a rose-colored glasses thing.

we actually need to hear bad news to make people react.

Electricity should be expensive for all the benefits it brings

If you want profit, why not pick coal or natural gaz?

I mean really?

I wonder if previous twitter execs are feeling a bit bad to have sold him twitter to see it destroyed like that.

I mean it certainly proves Elon is an idiot as he used fraud to manipulate the price and got played instead.

But was it worth it to let him destroy Twitter just because he tried to defraud it?

I’m not American, but I’ve been imagining a world where magas would take over Washington with guns.

I don’t want it to happen, but I see it happening. Republicans are anti government.

It would be quite entertaining, though. Not great, but still entertaining.

it was totalitarian, nobody wants a totalitarian state. communism and totalitarianism are different things

why don’t you quote the homeless people in the US and the drug problems of philadelphia, the capitalism of south africa, and saudi arabia?

we disagree, it’s okay.

ok, but the cost of building a quanat is still pretty high and is not trivial to achieve.

Can’t have water flowing everywhere in a country for this to work.

Programs and format are not research. Nothing new was invented, they’re just alternative to existing things.

Food is rationned, meaning everybody has food, and healthcare is great.

A lot of what china produces goes to exports.

A planned economy is a regulated system.

Capitalism led to a deregulated capitalism, which is mostly under the oversight of capitalists, not by politicians or public interests. I want capitalism to become better regulated again, especially advertising. Do you believe that can happen? I don’t really know.

All am I saying is that under a planned economy, capitalists cannot advertise for products and target the reward systems of the brains of consumers which work short term, not long term.

Production should happen in a regulated system that benefits people on the long term. The production of sodas and taco bells are not in the same priority system compared to maintaining roads, to produce a steady food supply or have healthcare, teachers and a military. Supply and demand requires that you cannot mix everything when it comes to public interests. That’s why planned economies are much much “agile” in a war economy like what the climate is causing.
