I honestly don’t personally know any real-life person who acts like that - they’re either just not scared of cool infrastructure, or they’re the occasional ‘patriot’ freak who’s nationalist/racist enough to consider Japan a threat too.

Leave the straw-man circlejerking to the rightoids, comrade.

Excessive for my threat model, one more thing which could break something (even if by no fault of its own).

I like it as a concept, but many of my devices don’t use it.

Send an email to their webmaster if you haven’t already. The more of us, the better.

Tempted to try the Traffic Light Reactuon, but I don’t know how safe it is to store something that alkaline in a regular glass bottle long-term

The proper stuff is expensive (~$1USD/ml), NileRed’s recipe is 2chem4me, but the cheaper ferrous suspension methods might be workable…

Any more examples of socialist democracies?

Since you mentioned India, Kerala is does not currently have a socialist mode of production (that’s a specific way of saying, their economy isn’t socialism) but they have been led by socialist parties (parties which are trying to implement a socialist mode of production), and it shows.

Despite my disagreements with local anarchists, they are objectively helping people and are lightyears above the Online Left. I will take comrades of almost (almost!) all tendencies over the Online Left.

I’m only used it as installed onto a USB, and in fact I chose it for that reason, so my experience isn’t ideal because of that USB drive speed but it’s a great lightweight OS that looks nice out of the box. Lightweight doesn’t have to look clunky or feel strange or unfeatured. I recommend it if there are reasons that lightweight is important (old hardware, low-end hardware, portable OS, … )

You could also use something like Tampermonkey (?) to make your own minimal CSS style for Lemmy, making it minimal, lean and blocky for you.

chans

Plenty of smaller, interests specific ones. Some even ban frogposters on sight or only allow politics in a containment thread. I think /comfy/ board is still alive somewhere. There are also a few larger openly-left ones, like the infamous /leftypol/ (split into leftypol.org and leftychan.net, each with their own pros and cons) and GETchan (famously upload some great music compilations). I was about to suggest lainchan but you already have. Nukechan is probably too slow but has some high-quality threads.

Erischan and plus4chan are interest-specific and not explicitly left, but have left tendencies.

The chan format (not merely the minimal aesthetic of English language chans) has a big impact on their culture. I don’t really believe in just putting a Yotsuba B skin over Lemmy. There are federated imageboards (I don’t believe it’s fediverse) but moderation is probably a nightmare, I assume it would just be used be freeze peach naziphiles banned from everywhere less.

Speaking as a Marxist who sees the PRC and the CPC as a current progressive world force - why are all your posts so aggressively-ridiculous strawman slop, as if its aimed to alienate working people? It’s the flavor I see in dirtbag-left online circlejerks and never among communists I’ve seen in real life, and I’ve met thousands of us.

Work-life balance is for the capitalists

Work-life synergy is the future - we need to build a society+economy that focuses on doing work that promotes life. When did the two become separated?

In addition to the monetary penalty, a permanent injunction required domain registrars and other parties to suspend the site’s domain names.

Has there been any discussion to host official .onion / I2P / etc. addresses to avoid domains? I couldn’t find any in the FAQ.

[…] allegedly throwing an improvised incendiary device that ignited part of an exterior gate before fleeing the scene on foot.

The suspect was ultimately located about an hour later near OpenAI’s headquarters, roughly 4.8 kilometres (three miles) away, where he was allegedly threatening to set the building on fire.

ngl disappointing performance. If you’re going to do an adventurism by yourself, which I generally don’t advocate for tactical reasons, then at least make it worth the prison time.

Defenestrit

Minutes.

You may not like it, but twins are the ideal couple.

Hopefully this one directly shoves the electons. I’m scared of society’s DHMO dependency.

Perhaps its too late for the largest instances, but the idea of a site like this being a spectator activity, about consumption, rather than creating communities. Some smaller instances, and even some larger ones, have an actual unique atmosphere and have larger projects across the instance. When we suddenly got a flood of reddit users escaping from the third-party API fiasco and the Luigi bans, that was huge enough to dilute some of the communities with large amounts of people used to simply voting and commenting, or having a website premade for them.

Codeberg works for me. I used to use a couple of indie instances of gitea for various smaller project, but both have either gone down or been at risk, so I mostly use Codeberg which is more organized and failsafe.
