Yeah I need something to dump medals into. An exchange system where like 25k medals turns into 50 super creds or something asinine like that would be better than what we’ve got
…ok fair
Would be great if home schooling had some laws around not teaching your kids to be christofascist terrorists
One of those last examples isn’t quite like the rest
Chinese communist party.
There are some particularly far left instances (hexbear, Lemmygrad, and .Ml specifically) that have pushed so far to the political left they’ve circled back around to supporting the CCP and the like.
Good. Your police department is more heavily armed than some militaries and you can’t stop one guy?
They’re using scanned documents as bait? Wonder where they got those. My of them happen to be dated between 2016-2020?
What you call rip offs Hollywood calls “call backs” and “creative bankruptcy”
You tired, bot. You tried.
Try and push “we’re all switching to Linux!” To a help desk team and let me know how that goes
Still pretty solid for me. Ammo economy becomes important, but running that plus the rail gun gives you a lot of stopping power.
Add in the rocket and auto-cannon sentries and you can take down anything in the game.
500kg is wildly unpredictable, I don’t use it for that reason.
I’ve recently been using auto cannon, rocket sentry, explosive crossbow and rail gun. Surprisingly robust
They aren’t though, price per GB on renewed storage with warranty is less than 10 cents a GB. That’s insanely low compared to just five years ago.
The comment that got me banned from a half dozen communities

What a bunch of fucking babies, lol
Opinions wanted: defederating with reddit repost bot instances
Update: so, the responses this far are almost universally that these bots have been blocked by users of the community. There is also a general disinterest in defederating, which is on brand.
You guys wanna do a poll or something or?
I’d like to lead my thoughts with a quote from the admins regarding bots within lemm.ee:
“Bots must not be responsible for the majority of content in any community”
There are two entire instances that immediately spring to mind, zerobytes.monster’s b0t user, and lemmit.online. Their content is quite literally 90% bot content with 0 engagement, and they spam constantly.
Now here at lemm.ee we generally don’t defend from stuff, that’s actually why I prefer this instance. Yes, you can block the bot users and that solves the problem, but hear me out:
These bots ruin the experience on Lemmy for new users. They spam so many posts, attempting to block them from a mobile app will usually crash the app. If you’re a new user coming to Lemm.ee sorting by all, you see tons and tons of empty posts.
Zerobytes is particularly egregious because it doesn’t even repost actual content, just thousands and thousands of links to Reddit posts. It’s a spam instance, period, and I feel strongly about this.
Lemmit.online isn’t quite as bad, but it’s an entire instance dedicated to spam reposting everything from Reddit. All the posts have zero engagement, and the comment value is gone so everything decent gets buried.
Yes there are ways around this on an individual user level, but then you’re creating a context where there’s even less engagement in the vast majority of “new” posts.
Anyway, thems my thoughts. Repost bots are stupid, one that drive traffic to Reddit are even worse. Thoughts?
Difficulty logging in on mobile browsers?
For whatever reason when I attempt to login on firefox or chrome from my iPhone 11, I get the infinite spinning circle. Anyone else experienced this?
