It seems to be lagging behind by hours.
For instance, this thread on lemmy.world shows 5 comments and 56 upvotes, while the same thread on lemmy.sdf.org has 3 comments and 24 upvotes only. And the weird thing is, I posted this thread from lemmy.sdf.org, as well as one of the comments, and outgoing is instantaneous. It’s just incoming comments and votes that don’t seem to come through.
baseless lawsuits erode public trust
Haha that was a good one. As if lawyers had any reputation to lose…
Here’s an old joke:
You’re in a cage with a wild angry gorilla and a lawyer and you have a revolver with 6 bullets: what do you do?
Shoot the lawyer 6 times and try to reason with the gorilla.
I suppose the server has to catch up now, right? There seems to be plenty of stale discussions.
This argument hinges on the premise that churches aren’t evil to begin with.
Can’t they take this money and just ignore those crazy people honestly.
You don’t understand that a bribe - sorry, political donation - is like a job: someone pays a politician to do a job if/when they get elected. If they don’t do the job, the next time they run, they won’t get more money.
Just like you at your job if you get a salary and you don’t do the work: the next month, you don’t get a salary anymore.
Here’s an interesting video about Zuckerberg’s rebranding:
Hmm… Touché.
The recording seems to show that Epstein and Trump were close enough for the disgraced sex offender to know how Trump ruled his White House
It takes one to know one.
the TikTok of the fediverse
Gee just what the Fediverse needed…
Joe Rogan would have you believe this “joke” goes down well in comedy clubs.
But I’m not buying this: I get insult humor and I don’t mind getting insulted when it’s funny. But Hinchcliffe’s Puerto Rico thing is just a straight insult. I don’t find anything remotely funny in his “joke” at all. Do you? Is there any redeemable comedic value in it that I’m missing here? Honest question.
I think Hinchcliffe made a simple mistake: he thought “How can I crack a joke about a part of the USA, that is not a state, doesn’t have federal voting rights and is full of despicable assholes?” But the racism kicked in at the last moment and he went “Puerto Rico!” instead of DC

Not really. Only shaked my head in disbelief.
Have you ever seen a TikTok video? Why on Earth do we want that on the Fediverse? Not everything that exists deserves to be copied.
That’s remarkable considering Linux is only 33 years old.
thats a lot of words for contributing for a single year, only half of which was ‘volunteer’

Two comments about this:
It is my firm belief that 99% of the population of any country ruled by a dictator are the primary victims of that dictator, don’t condone what their rulers do, have done nothing wrong and are just trying to be good people in unfavorable circumstances.
The Russians are no different and it isn’t fair to impose on Russian individuals of obvious good will the treatment governments apply to the Russian government, because the Russian government and the Russian people are two very different things.
Linus said in this interview:
I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be supporting Russian aggression?
and here I’m telling you this: Linus acts like a dipshit.
I know the Finns very, VERY well, and while they’re generally great people, when it comes to Russia and Russians, they have epidermic reactions of totally unreasonable proportions.
I understand where they’re coming from and why they react like that, but Russia is to the Finnish people what peanuts are to someone with a peanut allergy: the reaction is totally disproportionate and with zero nuances.
Don’t ever try to argue with a Finn that a Russian person can be good, and that Putin is also their enemy: the Finn will shut down and stop talking to you - meaning, in their culture, that you can politely go fuck yourself.
And that’s what we’re witnessing here with Linus: however many years he’s lived in California, he still hasn’t shed that part of his upbringing, and quite frankly, shame on him.
The plaintiff must have had pretty damning evidence for Polanski to pay up to make something that happened over half a century ago disappear.
People coming here to rant about Reddit isn’t activity.
