A good title gives you information about or summarizes the subject. A shitty title hides that information to force people to click to discover what it is, and 99.99% of the time it’s some low-quality crap. I won’t be clicking that video and will never know if it’s good, because just from the title I lost all respect for its creator, whose name I don’t even want to know. Clickbait is a cancerous culture pushed by content farms and predatory engagement algorithms. I refuse to submit to it.

Define “account”?

Anything that requires being verified. I guess I’m setting an IRC room for now to see how it’s goes

Of course not xD

The devs:

Is this not clear enough? Slurs are against our code of conduct and the goals of this project. Go to voat or gab if you want to use racist or sexist slurs; we don’t allow them here.

If you dont like it, fork it. Stop bothering us about it, we will never fully remove the slur filter.

Gladly they eventually allowed instances to choose if they want this beyond useless filter or not

I gotta move out of lemmy.ml. It took me a while to understand it wasn’t “removedat” but “bit chat” :P

That sounds amazing, but if I were to self-host it, I’m kinda worried about how it deals with private messages (I didn’t find it mentioned in the docs) - I would like to not have access to private messages.
I have no idea how IRC deals with that stuff. Soulseek has an IRC-like chat (I’m not sure if it’s IRC or something else they created) and private messages are stored locally instead of on the server, which seems ideal.

however, meter is Greek.

seems like only Spanish got it right, all other romance languages messed that up too.

First I thought it was a hilarious typo… but really it’s pedometer instead of podometer? Get your shit together English language.

I can fix her [cat]

And the Bandeirantes were heroic adventurers and jungle explorers.

Brazilian here. We had several major conflicts where armies from different states fought each other, tried to take the government, or proclaim independence. We call it all rebellions, it helps sell to ourselves the idea that we are peaceful people with a peaceful history.

they are collecting it to protect it, like a British Museum

Thanks. I have seen this and I thought it was all lemmy since it looks like devs wanted it that way for everyone https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/622

yep, this time I have read the thread to the end :P

BG3 players exploit children lol

Well, I believe brainwashing can only happen when there is no access to information. Adults make choices, and this is part of being held responsible.

Mention dynamic pricing then

That’s very beautiful, but do you feel that way too when Trump says vaccines cause autism, Elon Musk goes on rants about the woke virus, and then that racist uncle who likes to drunk-drive and catcall mentions them as beacons of morality protecting society from transexuals?

Regardless of nature and nurture, at some point people must be responsible for the things they do and say, else we are going to have to excuse everyone for everything, as nature and nurture is no one’s fault… and I don’t believe that. One can understand all the context of why they are like that, and still want them to fuck off.

There are insults that I feel like are moralistic, majority seem linked to non-marital sex but the root overall is trying to shame someone for sexual activity that “should” be shameful. From those aimed at women like removed (lol lemmy, I’m saying the female dog here), slut, removed (ugh, the way devs treat everyone like children is ridiculous… it wouldn’t prevent a troll from writing wh0re, just prevent adults from having a conversation), etc, to homophobic insults, and even some more “neutral” like bastard… I don’t feel like people talk about bastard enough, like, you are trying to shame that person for their mother not being married? Like, single mother = bad person? (like son of a removed, bastard is pretty misogynistic)

However, when someone says something really dumb, and you try to come up with an insult to his intelligence, I think inevitably someone will try to link it to people who are mentally impaired. Even the word “dumb” here, it’s used for people with speech impairment, and people believed they couldn’t talk because they were idiots, which meant mentally impaired as well… given enough first-world-boredom, someone will make the fight against “dumb” and “idiot” their cause too.
What about when there is data and evidence to something and the person refuses to see or hear… you gonna call them blind/deaf? You will have a hard time finding an insult that first-world-boredom won’t try to link to shaming people with disabilities… even calling someone crazy, insane, demented, deranged, etc, those are all used to demean people with real mental conditions, it’s ok to make them the butt of the joke?

I’m all pro using insults like asshole, piece of shit, etc, instead of moralistic stuff when you are trying to insult a person’s character… but what if you are trying to insult a person’s cognitive ability? People dead set to be offended will find a way to say you are being prejudicial towards people with cognitive impairment.
