The admins are asking what the threat is, and the only response so far has been “but they are evil”.

I’m not talking about interactions between instances, I’m talking about Google and Bing indexing Mastadon. That’s who we should be using for search.

When the rest of Hasbro’s business is tanking, they need to exploit the one property that is still making money.

No, you are disappointed that Mastadon doesn’t have the same feature set as Twitter. The fact that you can search off instance at all is impressive. What you are asking for is like saying you should find GM cars in Ford’s search bar. Each instance is its own website. Search engines are designed to do what you want, and as Mastadon grows in popularity, it’s search results will become more prominent.

I’ll just add that BBY and Michael’s business mode is to use the Anchoring effect year round, so they can constantly offer 40-60% “discounts”. If you paid full price for anything at those stores (BBY is out of business, but still) you got ripped off.

Say you don’t understand the fediverse without saying you don’t understand the fediverse.

By these standards:

• The web is unsafe by default
• Email is unsafe by default

In all three cases, your safety is determined by the home you choose, and who/what you choose to interact with.

That’s my point. This restaurant is try to bait and switch their customers by giving a misleading food price and adding a service charge. It is like a cell phone company adding garbage fees.

As for my initial comment - if you add a percentage for service, that ends my obligation to tip.

If you charge me for service, I’m not paying extra for service.

Call it what it is - a junk fee so they can make their prices look lower than they are. I wouldn’t go to this restaurant a second time.

So my point isn’t that there is some great threat from Republicans. It is just vastly more likely for any given kid to be abused by a Republican than by a drag queen. Yes, this is a population effect. This doesn’t mean we should single out Republicans for discrimination, just that they need to stop treating people who dress funny as an inherent threat.

But proportions aren’t really useful for protecting children when there isn’t a significant deviation from the general population. However, on a given day, a random child is much more likely to encounter a Republican child predator than a drag queen child predator. Now add in the overwhelming statistics that show child predators are usually known to and trusted by the child’s parents, and the emphasis that conservatives place in trusting those placed in authority above them, and you have a recipe for disaster.

So logically, since it is a much larger threat, a much larger effort should be made to protect children from Republicans.

There shouldn’t be any difference between apps on the same instance. Are you sure you are always using the same login on the same server?

The only other possibility is that the app has the instance hard coded somewhere or accessing remote instances directly, but that seems unlikely - it would cause all kinds of problems because URLs aren’t portable.

My suggestion when troubleshooting would be to compare what is showing up on the login instance and the app. If those are different, then there is an app bug. If there is a difference between the login instance and the host instance, that’s a federation issue. Comparing the app to the host instance (instead of the login instance) isn’t helpful to the app developer. The app shouldn’t know the host instance even exists.

It looks like federation issues. Lemmy.world is under semi-constant DDOS attacks, and between that and the mitigations that LW are putting in place, the entire instance is not reliable.

In general, I think communities (or groups of related communities) should maintain their own instances to protect from some of the issues prominent with user-focused instances.

Go into embedded software. You can’t do ads if there is no UI taps head.

Again though, how often do those injuries happen in a pile vs when the players are in the open field? When the players are upright and moving fast, it is much more likely their feet will get stuck in the turf and make joints vulnerable. Meanwhile, players in a QB sneak are nearly horizontal, and it is much easier for their feet to come out of the ground.

Energy = mass x velocity^2

Slow speed plays don’t get players hurt. High speed plays do.

Along with the rest of crypto, but don’t tell them…
