I know it’s the whole point of them doing this shit but it’s getting so hard to cope with the constant fucking around. What in the fuck are we going to do? At least for now they’ve realized how spectacularly stupid this move was, I guess.

Spoiler alert: It’s way better than it was, but it’s still not very good.

At least the name gives you a really good idea of the philosophy driving their UX…

edit: no hang on I meant “the people that choose the name also define the project’s philosophy”

We have standards and keep away from mob justice, public shaming, the death penalty and indentured servitude slavery.

Gee, I wonder how ya’ll got those vaunted standards. Weird. Could have been just about anything, couldn’t it.

Seriously, the US has a lot of our own shit to get together, but lets not throw too many stones over the moral superiority of european countries either. Especially right now, in the face of the growing influence of far-right parties across the, ahem, “civilized” world. The US is a whole omnibus of cautionary tales right now, it might be worth hearing one or two of them out instead of going directly to “unbelievable cliche”.

This… seems… highly theoretical.

I can’t really think of a better example of what you’re talking about than that there’s three other people replying to this, each recommending you use a different flavor of linux…

I think if you check carefully, you’ll discover they were promoted to “honorary americans” for the duration of their glorious accomplishments, thus preserving our unimpeachable record for “being the best at war stuff”.

Well if you’re dead set on nitpicking the historical accuracy, I suppose we can be persuaded to concede that the Soviets helped, too. But only a little bit! And they nicked most of the good bits off us!

Landing a fridge on those spindly little legs did seem a bit… optimistic…

Yeet The Rich (Into Space)

God fucking damnit can we just have one thing???

Oh, yeah, that really does not look real. Like on its own this seems unlikely since there’s been no talk about this until now, but wow that video just looks really, really fake.

Also it’s apparently only ~4ft/130cm tall, which would make this less impressive even if all the promo media released about it is real, which seems… unlikely.

We’re using graphene! Almost entirely for it’s electrical properties true, but we’re using graphene doped batteries in consumer electronics currently. We also use fusion and ITER research for a whole lot more than just power generation - plasma dynamics, just one tiny subfield concerned with physics, has applications in everything from radio transmission beam forming techniques to satellite engines to magnetodynamic modeling to the EMI shielding on your vacuum cleaner.

Buddy the only other high profile guy to recently get done for shit like this was Epstein, maybe don’t make toooo much noise about justice not being served here…

You’ll feel right at home on that instance if you don’t like how .ml operates

“You’ll like being places where you’re welcomed even if you have a differing opinion far more than a place that carefully maintains an authoritarian echo chamber” isn’t exactly a scathing indictment of their character, you realize that right?

(In english, italics are often used to denote sarcasm. Don’t know that’s what happened here, but calm down.)

Can you really blame them? Everyone knows .world is nothing but hate speech, disinformation and transphobes running rampant. /s

They really hate it when you point out they could just defederate from us, because there’s no good excuse for not doing it if they truly believe their claims.

Don’t be a coward, jerk off on your main and your alt!

People don’t easily accept things that challenge their preconceptions, and they especially don’t seek those things out, boy do I know (gestures at the american political landscape, myself and all of human history). With that in mind, could you provide a source (or example)? I’m extremely interested in being proved wrong on this topic, especially by a user from an instance with a reputation for holding well supported views counter to the prevailing ideas in the US.

Yeah there’s some great shit here, for now.
