The front page of Reddit was the same 10 usernames for majority of the sites existence. I wouldnt be surprised if it was still the same users just using multiple accounts because so many people blocked their mains.

Its wild to me how active lemmy feels compared to mastodon. I told my normie friends about it when I found out about it during the migration and they insisted that it would die and recently I was able to update them and say its still going strong and its got its own unique vibe that feels different from reddit.

I personally don’t see the value add of e2e encryption to public posts in a federated social media.

DMS are the only place I could see it being beneficial.

I hate the ccp as much as the next guy but these workers are being paid and given benefits. Its not slavery. It doesn’t help to make false statements like this. If you want to attack foxcon there is plenty of actual points.

For example you could bring up the fair labor report that happened after this controversy and examined 3 foxcon factories in China and found that while workers starting wage was above minimum wage and most of the workers were far above minimum wage majority of the employees still said their salaries were not satisfactory to cover their needs.

Also foxcon addressed the concerns of that report after the investigation was concluded. Including improving health and safety, worker pay, hours worked and benefits.

Its far from slavery but its not denmark working conditions. However if I was Chinese I wouldnt say its a bad job. Lots of hours and decent wage + option of living on premises is good. The suicides definitely are not related to working conditions or we would see at least 5x more per year.

What are the wages they are paid? I would be surprised if the assembly line workers were getting a lower than average wage for the country the factory resided in.

The more I see him talk the stupider I think he is. He has all these accolades but ive yet to see him say anything intelligent on any of the topics he speaks about.

I completely disagree with that stupid phrase.

Fuck this sucks to see. What an incredibly stupid thing to tweet. He got absolutely cooked in the replies as he deserved to. Trying to pass it off as purely based on policy then when users bring up a comparison of dems anti trust policy vs Republicans he is silent.

I got a year subscription and I almost finished moving everything over to protonmail. But I cannot support someone who genuinely thinks the Republicans are a positive force.

But he has no reasoning or precedent for such an extreme law. Biden isnt like like trump he doesnt have people around him willing to casually disregard the rule of law.

If you think the top person in a central bank of a country of 150million people making 220k is them being part of the financial elite is insane.

Mint is super old and the nvidia drivers on mint are terrible.

No its called having morals and standing by them. Virtue signaling is when you pay lip-service to a cause and don’t walk the walk. Almost like zuck doing his dei stuff when it was popular and doing a 180 as soon as it becomes slightly unpopular.

This is probably going to make the US government confident they made the right choice banning tiktok and start the next step which is banning more chinese platforms.

Financial elite? They aren’t the “financial elite” they are a bunch of economists that get paid shitty level government wages. The highest ranked person in the BOJ makes 220k USD a year.

The Judiciary Act limits the amount of Judges.

Im sorry to be rude but you have no idea what you are talking about you dont even know what the bank of Japan is. The bank of Japan is the Japanese central bank that monitors and controls Japans monetary policy. Its nothing like wall street which is an american stock exchange.

Also Life expectancy has so many contributing factors you cannot point to it and say “it didnt go down therefore this change was good”.

Really? Japanese life expectancy is the stat you’re going to pull up to justify this. Go take a look at the Japense life expectancy from 1950 to today and try and find the decade where their economy crashed. You cant because its a consistent increase not at all tied to their economic successes/failures.

Its not wall street saying this is bad its the bank of Japan.

He cant usurp judges with no reason other than political alignment. The bar for getting rid of a judge is extremely high and has only been done once in the history of the US in 1800s. Biden did all that he could he nominated a great judge when Stephen Breyer stepped down. The things you ask of Biden are out of the realm of possibility.

Undermined by the supreme court? What is he supposed to do about that it’s a separate branch of government.

The only people to blame for trumps election is the people who voted for him or a 3rd party. Joe Biden will be remembered badly because the right wing were incredibly successful in getting their attacks to propagate through the pop culture.

You mean that period of Japan that they call “the lost decades”. No one would ever want their economy to go through that.
