Im pretty sure Mistral was using AWS before. It is a shame

… which is true even in cases where your precursor was yourself.

5%? Dont tell Linux desktop

Greg Meek and Adam Smith’s terms ends in 2027, but they have both been in office a long time so it doubt they are at risk of loosing their seats unfortunately

Huh, does the article say that cloud storage is already scanned without suspicion?

The ukranians are genocidal? Sorry, what?

EDIT: sorry I stirred trouble. I think its good to be critical of any government. From what I know, Ukraine’s military is mostly killing invaders, which is not what I would characturize as a genocide on their part. On the other hand Israel’s military…

Thank you for the understanding and I do agree with your position as well. I did solicit some input from others that share similar views to you, but i have been too lazy to take action on it.

If you have ideas for how to make the rules more objective while still allowing a space for more light hearted content to flourish, I would love to hear your thoughts. Even if they arent fully formed. A community like c/cat_pictures has an easier time of it i imagine.

Sorry, that wasn’t a jab at you.

Here are some of my thoughts if you are interested. Being on lemmy I assume we have similar values and in general agree on a lot, even if the implementation details are messy. I do try to balance all of the various thoughts i get about how showerthoughts should be moderated, and your thoughts are helpful to me.

From my perspective, if communities didnt have rules and enforcement to keep them on-topic then there wouldn’t be much point in having communities. They would all have the same content.

Whats “on-topic” is a hard judgement call sometimes. A “showerthought” is a pretty loose thing but i remember liking r/showerthoughts for the fun clever discoveries that people made about everyday life, and I assume that most of the subscribers to c/showerthoughts are thinking the same thing, but i dont know.

You are correct that it helped reduce the mod workload which I am trying to find a sustainable balance with. Its a catch 22 with politics because people become really impassioned which means people slip up and say inappropriate things, which means you need to take more mod actions, which makes more people angry at you which makes even more work… but if it makes people impassioned then maybe it means its the most important thing to be talking about…

I think the lemmy ecosystem has a lot of space for talking about politics, if people dont subscribe to those communities as heavily then thats another issue, but maybe not because the conversations can be more meaningful. When I browes lemmy i sort by new or scaled so that i can help build engagement in small communities that otherwise dont get much attention. Imdoingmypart.jpg

I have had my posts removed too and yeah i dont like it.

I am the mod that removed your post. I am always happy to talk about it. I do make mistakes and change my mind at times.

Yeah its a gray rule, no doubt about it, but the alternative is the comm flooded with everyone’s political hot take, which quickly drowns out lots of great posts.

You can donate to the main dev on liberapay also

This is a rule that could actually be implemented and would help with the slop vs not-slop judgement call

ackshually…

red tailed hawk screech

Even the national bird is fronting

The rules are in the sidebar of the community. Rule 3 is “be excellent to each other”.

I have 8GB in cache and 0.7GB in user data.

Im on android.

I will say the recent speed improvements to the app have finally made it usable. It was so painful before

I giggled

Yeah that’s hard for me to understand.

Yeah it makes it a bit if a creative writing exercise.

All good. Thanks for being a part of the community!

Hello, thanks for posting to showerthoughts. This post got reported for rule 2.

The rough idea of rule 2 is that a good shower thought is simple, so it should fit in the title. Its tempting to write a catchy title that is more line a newspaper headline, but that’s not the idea of rule 2.

Mind updating the title?

I have been slowely finding a few. The good ones are almost exclusivly youtubers that now also post to peertube

That would be sick. Peer tube is pretty great
