Yeah that’ll show him. I’m sure he’s gonna lose a ton of sleep over the miniscule amount of traffic that’s going to drop for his shitty website that he bought and drove into the ground.

Wait actually he cares way too much about how people view him so it might actually bother him a ton. It’s hard to say really.

Either way stop using Twitter and reddit. Both terrible.

And even then… Sometimes it doesn’t work haha

The users on this site are so cooked. Mans is getting downvoted for using the correct terminology lol.

I used to live up near Lake Tahoe. I lost count of how many city folk would think all wheel drive would be enough and skipped chains/cables.

One of our favorite things was watching people pour hot coffee or water on their frozen windshield. Man that never stopped being hilarious to watch. They would often just stand there in disbelief after their windshield shattered lol.

Pay attention to when people tell you what to think and be extra suspicious of that kind of behavior. Question everything. Trust but verify.

Now don’t fall into the trap of just being a contrarian. Just because everyone is telling you the same thing doesn’t mean it’s ALWAYS some big conspiracy. It could actually just be the right thing.

Basically just be curious and don’t form opinions purely based off people you look up to or admire.

I used to be a zoom admin for a very large college before and during the start of COVID. At that time I never recall seeing anything about participation metrics and whatnot. Other than someone recording the meeting and watching it back I don’t think there is anything they can see besides who joined and what/if they typed.

I will say the admins can see “private” dms to each other if they really want to. So while nobody else in the call can see what you’re typing to your buddy in the moment the admins can if they want to. So don’t type anything in those private chats unless you would hypothetically be ok with your boss seeing it.

It’s been a few years since I left that job though so it possible they have added more data logging for things like camera and mic “on” time.

Personally even now for my work as long as I connect to the meetings when I’m supposed to they never care if I turn on my webcam or unmute. I’ll answer the random question thrown my way, but otherwise I’m on my phone or doing actual work work while sorta half listening to whatever meeting.

It’s only atter of time before the elites go after places like Internet archive and such. Can’t have the people being able to call us out on our gaslighting bullshit.

I watched it. It was alright. Definitely nothing so special I’ll feel the need to watch it again.

Hey I’m new here. What do you mean by change instance? Like I see the different subs/communities or what y’all call em, but I’ve just been scrolling through the “everything” tab or whatever it’s called.

I followed some of my interests but generally I just sort by top in the past hour and scroll away.

Ah. I guess that makes sense. I only ever go on social media from my phone so I will only be viewing Lemmy through the lens of Sync I guess. Thanks for the info.

If that’s intentional that seems like a bad idea. Just gonna lead to confusion on the users end and more posts asking why things are “broken”.

Thank you for the info. Are there any other symbols or site quirks I should know about?

Rule 1 for Lemmy overall or that specific sub? Cause I don’t see any rules listed under the “about” tab. I didn’t break rule 1 as its written as far as I can tell. So that just feels like mod abuse because they didn’t like what I said or something.

I also didn’t get any sort of notification for this temporary ban. Is that intentional? It was simply giving me “network errors” whenever I tried to upvote something and the feedback for the user was very unclear.

I know I’m asking a lot of questions but can anyone see the ban logs for everything? I am obviously very new and still trying to figure out how this whole shindig works.

Edit: Thank you for the info. It was very thorough and you didn’t have to do all those links and everything. But it was very appreciated.

6 alarms each a minute apart. 5 from my phone and 1 from my Google home.

My mom used to have to dump ice water on me to get me outta bed for school.

Once I’m asleep I’m pretty sure you could throw me outta an airplane and I wouldn’t wake up.

Fan for air flow and noise (I’ve got tinnitus). Rub one out. Small glass of cold water. I’ll roll over and pass tf out in seconds.

Highly recommended, but not necessary: Take an edible ~ 2 hours before you wanna go to sleep so you’re in the middle of riding that high when it’s time to crash.

Just take a scoop out and bring it back. Should be easy right? Lol

Reddit, twitter, Facebook, Twitch, YouTube, tiktok and now Lemmy. I can’t think of a single social media site I’ve used in the last year that didn’t have people talking about Palestine in one way or another.

It’s why I doubt the claim that the US government is specifically trying to ban tiktok because of the Palestine/Israel situation. They wanted TikTok gone before the October 7th 2023 attack.

I believe it’s more likely a nation security issue being owned by a Chinese company than anything to do with Palestine whatsoever.

My apologies, I got the Asian countries all jumbled up in my head. The CEO of TikTok is from Singapore, but the parent company of TikTok (ByteDance) is Chinese.

So throw in a layer of national security concerns and it makes far more logical sense why they want to have China sell the US side of TikTok to an American owned company.

I still don’t think the Palestine situation has much of anything to do with what’s going on with the US governments distain for TikTok. They didn’t like it way before the Israel/Palestine situation kicked off again.

Yes because nobody is talking about the Palestine/Israel situation on any other social media platforms. /s

The more likely reason is that it’s a social media company that the government currently has zero control over. Being owned by a (Taiwanese?) company the US can’t ask them to track data and the CIA/FBI can’t fill it with propaganda or whatever else they want.
