Keep getting false positives on AVG from lemmy.world communities pages for derp.foo

When people name their web assets the same as known viruses, hacks, and malware, because they think it's just the funniest thingever, this shit is going to continue to happen.

Your antivirus is working perfectly, and doing exactly what is should be doing.

ok. fine. now do an overall emissions savings, end to end, factor in no having to pay Russians, Venezuelans, and Arabs for gasoline, and get back to me

does that remindme tag at the end of your comment work? does it work natively for all lemmy instances?

This is fantastic, the downside of course, if the general population being taught by their governments that COVID isn't to be feared, but lived with, and most importantly "worked through". The capitalist system doesn't function without it's workers, and the corporations don't want anything disrupting their bottom line, including covid mitigations, which is why you see Right Wing nutjobs telling everyone that COVID is over, and there was nothing to fear in the first place, while in the span of 12 months over One Million Americans died. Corporations, aided by the Right Wing bigots, don't want COVID air detectors anywhere, as they would invariably detect COVID. Reminds me of that movie where the king said to save arrows, and send in the infantry, because arrows cost money, and people cost nothing.

He's pushing, that's his job to do, and he's doing it. NATO is trying to stop a world war, and Ukraine, unfortunately happens to be caught in the middle right now, and that's NATO's job to do, and their doing it. This is terrible for Ukraine, of course, but the rest of the world is ok with it being terrible for Ukraine at the moment, unless it spills over, then all bets are off. Ukraine just has to hope all the weaponry is enough to get Russia to relent, but I think Russia is pretty much all in at this point and won't.

Granted, the warning says clearly "If you deselect Undetermined, you will not see most content", which places the onus on the individual user, as apposed to logic built into Lemmy on which posts/comments can be viewed, while also leaving it to each user to have to weed out alternate languages for their views which are incorrectly set. This is indeed leading to many posts simply not appearing (as designed and intended), which is less than ideal when trying to grow a user base/community.
