It is concerning we are still arguing over if slavery was wrong in today's time.

“What slavery was really about was separating families, about mutilating humans and even raping their wives. It was just devastating,” Scott, the sole Black Republican in the Senate, told reporters on Thursday after a town hall in Ankeny. “So I would hope that every person in our country — and certainly running for president — would appreciate that.”

 

I can’t get the push notifications to work. When I try to turn it on it just sits and spends. Is there a setting that is causing the issue?

I can’t imagine what he is going to experience over there. They are not kind to Americans and likely would have been significantly to face disciplinary action from the US.

It looks like there is only one mod and they haven’t been active recently. Best bet is to reach out to the admins and ask about becoming a mod.

Reaching out to the admins is going to be the best course of action. If the community has no activity or no recent activity and the mods are unresponsive there is a good chance they will work with you.

This is wild. I hope they get sued and lose horribly.

That is terrifying.

Ah. The wonders of Hobby Lobby.

Part of it is the sunk cost fallacy. They are/were heavily invested in the community and it's hard to walk away from something that has been important to you. I don't necessarily disagree with you as I walked away from Reddit and only recently logged in to give away all my coins but I do empathize some with those who haven't yet.

That's okay though. It takes time and if you can get your community to really take off then maybe the other mods will come over. Every subreddit had to start somewhere and wasn't huge overnight. Honestly, Lemmy is not a replacement for Reddit and shouldn't be treated as such. It's just different.

Touche, my desk is a bit dusty (maybe more than a bit) and needs a solid cleaning.

What is wrong with people?!

I’m an administrator so I work with MS Office but that is about it as far tech. I did dabble a bit in high school and college with some basic computer programming but that was ages ago and things have vastly changed since then.
