Awesome! Guess I'll need to update all my mods tonight and wait a little bit for the core mods to update.
I'd imagine this is their solution for Xbox exclusive games with their upcoming handhelds, since those are only going to have the Windows GamePass, no additional Xbox compatibility.
Huh? Investment people definitely didn't wait for that classification to start turning it into a speculations market. The SEC actions were largely reactive.
My local bank's investment and wealth management bros were already all about crypto long before regulations.
I'm not trying to make their point for them. I'm trying to softly suggest a course of action that will make conversing online easier for you and the people you interact with.
I'm a little sensitive to this sort of stuff right now because one of the better people on lemmy, Admiral Patrick, is shutting down their lemmy instance dubvee in part due to patterns of people assuming bad faith in online discourse.
Just save yourself the effort by not assuming they meant something bad in the first place. Most people with the kind of terrible opinions you assumed will out themselves fast enough, without assuming bad faith. There's very little to gain by trying to "hunt them down". They'll tell you who they are themselves very directly.
It is not the other person's responsibility to respond to arguments against and counter points to things they never said, just because you thought they might mean it. This isn't a press conference. You aren't some reporter trying to catch somebody out in a contreversial statement to help pump reader numbers. This is a relatively casual conversation online. Be casual. Be kind.
I hope I've made my thoughts clear on this. Either way, I'm done. Hope you have a good day
No.
Lemmy already has serious issues of political divisiveness driving off new users. We don't need to further that "to own the libs".
While I don't truly think that's why this is being suggested, we don't seem to have a good reason to refedrate other than "they appear to be behaving lately".
Also, the optics of the timing of this occurring right as Admiral Patrick is closing dubvee over (among many things) the general tone of discussion on Lemmy being abrasive as all hell in large part due to political division spurring disrespect? Not a good look guys.
I was trying to be kind/funny in case you didn't mean to imply that they were supporting that sort of thing, because they didn't say that. Now you're just being condescending.
Let me be direct: Nowhere did that user say that they supported the current criminal penalties around drug usage. Maybe you could wait for them to say so before you assume they support something that most people find objectionable.
You know, treating someone's statement as being made in good faith until it's proven otherwise?
Two lips on my organ? They knew.
I'm not sure where he said that was the other option he supported. Maybe I need my eyes checked.
My doctor isn't going to be able to restrain someone raging on bath salts. Or a belligerant drunk on the public bus.
Yours must be pretty swole I guess.
GPT will list fake sources. Just in case you aren't aware. Most of these things will.
I'd extend that to most internet memes.
