Here we have a great example of how the discourse is not much better in the federated universe. The majority of people are not shopping for "liberal" or "conservative" instances because they were told they would be able to mold a unique and better experience in the federated universe. Yet, here we are having to not only block bad subs and users but whole instances and there really is no way to keep the bad out of your curated sub/instance. It's the same cat and mouse game just much worse because of the federated universe. Bad actors are abusing this more and more and they're winning.

I disagree. I find the federated networks to be self cannibalizing closed off ecosystems that craft themselves into something worst than any "corporate" social network. Don't get me wrong and think I'm a fan of traditional social networks. I've just come to understand that the federated universe of social networks is not what they made themselves out to be. They're controlled by small groups with barely any transparency on security and privacy and little ability to protect users from the dangers of the Internet. These servers are run by a handful of individuals who answer to no one. The federated networks have become a haven for misinformation and bigotry on a level that rival the mainstream social networks. The content shared is usually just taken from other networks or so obscure they barely generate any engagement. Etc, etc... TLDR, it's just worst here.

Stop lying and just say you're racist.

I really wouldn't know. In this context I assume it means it is not deployed like traditional mobile networks are. The missing components being the hardware side like putting up towers etc.

They said Google has a monopoly using their own Jio virtual carrier. They never said Jio doesn't support RCS.

The summary doesn't even mention Mozilla's complaint.

The summary was Mozilla's statement on the changes.

Started using UEFI booting with secure boot. Much easier to fix and work with.

You do realize that mass shootings are categorized on how many are shot and not how many dies. Let's not also get into the fact that gun violence is still gun violence regardless of the charge. You need to find a new podcast.

This post just shows that the police rarely if ever review any video as this method would've been learned as a result of repeatedly reviewing video.

The rules allow any character to wield any weapon. Usually characters weapons are chosen based on race, class, stats, and the whims of the DM.

Well excuse me for wanting to save the lives of children, women, elderly, press, humanitarians, etc... We all know the Israeli response is disproportionate and that they never intended to rescue any hostages. Do you really want to keep defending that government?
