Well they did deliver on getting rid of the deep state, now it's just shallow / completely above water state doing all the bullshit
Projection is gonna project
I was talking to my brother about this the other day and tin foil hatting... Perhaps musk didn't rig the election in trumps favour by adding votes, but instead deleting the democrats votes. Thus making the left feel helpless while still guaranteeing an election
Well, yeah... he's

The Mexican president gave the first lady a blow job and now the tariffs have all been rolled back for the moment.

When they had the BLM stuff and the police decided to force people into their homes, I was like... This is it. It's gonna happen. The tyranny is here.
Nothing.
Not a damn thing.
I saw something about making you wear a little star on your shirt if you conceal carry, for the sake of society.
Sun Tzu's Concubines
The following is a short biography of Sun Tzu written by Sima Qian, one of the famous historians of China. While it’s authenticity has been debated, it serves as a great story on leadership. …

This whole situation reminds me of the fable of Sun Tzu and King He Lu's concubines. I've linked a copy of the story, better than my TlDr, but here it is anyway. TlDr; Sun Tzu was tasked with training the kings concubines as soldiers. He gave them instructions, and they refused to carry them out, laughing and not taking it seriously. He then had two of the Kings favourite concubines executed against his wishes. Suddenly they were taking it very seriously and doing the right thing.
It doesn't take much to control a populace. The arrest of Luigi will make people he might have targeted feel safe again. But if they didn't feel safe - ie he was never caught - he might have made real change and the targeted group would start doing the right thing for fear of retribution.
It would have been an interesting alternate timeline.
Content has gotten much better
I'll admit I've drifted off Lemmy the last month or so.. content was a bit repetitive and felt like just an echo chamber of the same ideas. I didn't go back to Reddit, Reddit lost me to tiktok it turns out.
Jumped back on now and so many more posts have inspired me to comment. I'm a comment contributor generally but I wasn't feeling it.
Anyway.. just wanted to pop in and say I'm really enjoying it. Not that I was ever going anywhere but this is a great trajectory

Musk was responding to noted misinformation peddler and comedian Joe Rogan, who linked to a press release about...

Server stats etc
Hey, one thing that has confused me a bit about Lemmy is just how bad it seems to be at handling any traffic at all.
Do you have any stats on how many request per second etc you are getting? I saw the thread the other day with your 24cpu server and the graphs and figure if anyone has a bit of a handle on it, if figure this community can work it out.
Like, if its just doing a couple of database reads and (from what i can tell I'm on mobile) just serving a JSON API to a single page JavaScript application, why is it so hard on the server?
