Interesting and all but boy, Threads sucks as an environment. It’s just the worst algorithm and their stance on “political content” is misery.

It stinks that what seems like the most critical reporting lands behind paywalls.

You pay for WordPress.com though. That’s crazy to offer a paid service and use that data in AI training.

If you both want to debate moderation decisions on lemmy.ml, can you do that on lemmy.ml?

Yeah, I don’t like a guy who consistently tries to embody “move fast, break stuff” in the places I least want that to be the case.

These companies are just miserable to talk to, trying to stay out of the legal handling themselves by being mum, passing along the reports.

You all can downvote me but if you're not interested in living in the land of facts, demonstrating any attempt at backdooring Fediverse products beyond "bad money in a think tank", then there's literally not even the smoke to indicate a fire.

Can you share anything that indicates that understanding governance is even tangentially related to backdooring these products or the teams behind them? Is the best response really "wait four years and see"?

That hardly means they’re investigating how to take over instances… These egghead think tanks will do research on anything that matches a couple buzzwords and this is one of them.

Someone’s researching governance in a federated environment and that’s scary because…?

The pro bowl is not a way to evaluate if a team has good players.

It’s not perfect but when’s the last time a successful team in the postseason had ZERO pro bowl nominees. It’s just another indicator that this lineup has fallen into disrepair (and that’s not ‘cause of their historically frugal spending…)

Spending future money to have good players now is literally unconditionally not a legitimate approach to rebuilding.

I’ve literally never disagreed with you that wasteful spending is dumb but not every player is getting a 10-year Mahomes contract. You’re more likely to see a 2-3 year contract for a wideout that works perfectly with the ample cap during that window.

And to say pursuing a short-term veteran is never a solution to performance struggles is actually hilarious since it’s historically worked for a number of teams to get into the postseason and even win the Super Bowl.

This is the worst part to me. All this just to “cloud sync” or something silly.

You really don’t know how to read. Just quit if you really need to mischaracterize everything and can’t see the value of having any good players.

 

Any bots kicking around that can create game threads? I know there’s several others doing similar things for other sports but haven’t seen football yet.

 

Coming from the east coast, I’m trying to find that perfect Portland coffee bean to make for my morning ritual. What’s your favorite coffee roaster in the metro area? Bonus points if they do a great espresso on site as well!

 

This is less of a question for the local ownership, more of one for other folks here to check the temperature of the room.

I've been having troubles subscribing to communities on lemmy.ml, just getting stuck at "subscribe pending". I figure they're probably overwhelmed but I'm also new to Lemmy and am curious if other folks are seeing similar troubles. Is it just our instance?
