Sure, I did make a couple comments between today and yesterday, including this one, so I'm not sure where the "gotcha" is here.
I signed in yesterday to check how a deletion script of mine would work and decided to scroll around. Yesterday I saw a social security thread that was some news I didn't come across yet, and today I saw this thread in my list of active threads as I tabbed back and it piqued my interest.
If you're curious about my future activity:
- In a day or two I'll be making an announcement post in an announcements community saying I have a tool to help purge user posts
- In about a week-10 days I'll make a final "hey! this instance is shutting down real soon!"

This is an endemic problem on Lemmy and is part of why I'm mostly done with it (I'm just lurking around right now to keep an eye on my instance I'm decommissioning).
There's no point in trying to build a community with a very hostile environment for anything that doesn't align with the very odd hostile-against-everything-not-OSS zeitgeist.
Take a look at [email protected]. The folks downvoting don't even own EVs and just spam bad takes on News and Politics communities.
Ironically Reddit is a healthier place.

I’m not a fan of raising it but you’re just incorrect and ought to look into how this works.
You can start pulling benefits out at 62 but you can collect more per month the longer you wait.
There is nothing stopping you from deciding at age 62 to start collecting if you’re fine with the lower amount.
Next, the amount provided is never promised. You pay into Social Security for current benefit recipients and Social Security gives you an estimated amount of benefits you may see. This is called out many times, and I implore you to utilize the information on its site effectively.
Here’s the disclaimer:
We can't provide your actual benefit amount until you apply for benefits. And that amount may differ from the retirement estimates because: …
- Your estimated benefits are based on current law. The law governing benefits amounts may change. Congress has made changes to the law in the past and can do so at any time.

Preventing corporations is one piece of the puzzle, the next is finding a way to not incentivize people using their owner-occupied houses as the retirement investment vehicle.
We won’t be able to build more houses if people keep justifying their votes for bad planning over this fear their house value will drop to zero.
Considering the literal hundreds of other poorly reasoned comments you make on here…
Biden was never a progressive president. He wasn’t running on anything close to a progressive platform. I’m not sure why in this, or literally a hundred of your other comments here that get responded to by others, is still a surprise.
The Verge is a site focusing on tech products and services.
I cannot believe anyone would find it surprising that they talk about tech products and services.
Welp, I have nothing to say to that kind of attitude. It’s a fairly decent day across much of the US and Europe for an uplifting walk outside.
Is it only news if it invokes strictly trite and sorrowful commentary?
Tesla is gradually expanding its non-Tesla Supercharging pilot in North America, recently opening the first station in Alaska for CCS1-compatible EVs.
It looks like the Magic Dock might not be dead even as many manufacturers adopt NACS.
