I don’t know how you’d measure driving “goodness”, but I expect the distribution would be something like exponential (there are billions of non-drivers, and only a few rally/stunt drivers). So the average is likely to be higher than the median.
This is hilarious
Yep. The thing I worry about is, even if the dems pull of a win that gives them the power to do this, would they actually do it? I doubt it, somehow.
A better solution would be for the US to implement some kind to voting system where third party voting does matter. Like lots of the world has.
I feel like I’m seeing that attitude a lot. I guess some other people also feel it, but worry that expressing it will reduce the dem vote. Which is unfortunate, but also understandable.
I’m not american, fwiw
Because genocide support from the US under Trump is likely to be substantially worse than it is under a democrat government.
Your metaphor makes no sense because you can both vote for a lesser evil and take action against genocide in lots of other ways (voting isn’t the only thing you can do)
Y’all are an odd bunch, but I’m happy to have you on side.
Any instance that interacts with any other instance is federated. Which is the vast majority of instances with more than a handful of users.
Is the same not true of Lemmy?
Mastodon federation is not opt-in. As soon as anyone on one server is following one person on the other server, the servers are fully federated. From there, it’s opt-out, via blocking.
That’s nonsense. I’m on one of the main servers, and like 90% of my feed is from other servers, and it includes lots of small servers. And that’s been true for years.
It’s try the search function was bad prior to earlier this year, but it’s improved a bit. And if you are looking for someone specific, then presumably their account would be listed somewhere on their website?
Everything you just said is also true of mastodon.
Mastodon is scaling fine though? I’ve been using it for years, and it’s great, and still growing. User base is a bit tech focused, could be more general, but I think it’ll get there eventually.
Seems like a trolley problem to me
Not really. Many of them are already heavily invested in life extension tech (not that I think it will work, but it means they’re optimistic). I think their general worldview is that technology will fix it, at least for them.
It literally promises to generate content, but I think the implied promise is that it will replace parts of your workforce wholesale, with no drop in quality.
It’s that last bit that’s going to be where the drama happens
Better a moderation system that has a few false positives than a system that allows nazi and fascist accounts to flourish.
The last two lines are the part he believes
The list is long enough that it has it’s own wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Coca-Cola
As an anarchist, I too would prefer Nobody for president.
(But given current practical realities, I hope enough of you Americans cote dem to keep the fascists out)
