This post seems surprisingly openly racist.

The idea of shipping liquid fuel in trucks and dispensing it out of hoses at special fuel stores is just silly.

I don't necessarily disagree with that but I hope you see that this type of infrastructure is exactly what we currently have and have proven to work.

It wouldn't be that stupid to reuse an existing infrastructure that is already built. The issue with our current fuel infrastructure is that it is moving fossil fuel.

I suppose he moderated him and now OP started his little crusade.

Creating accounts just to spew insults on Lemmy.

Really don't have better to do on Christmas ?

I think ARC is a good thing. It's pretty bad performance wise but it's a new manufacturer in this field. There may be more competition for AMD and Nvidia which is always good for the consumer.

I suppose it is very hard to enter that market at this point and they still did it.

Only seen that on the train platform when it's open air. In a closed building I haven't seen that in years personally and I regularly take trains in France.

It's still strictly forbidden to smoke in a train station and the vast majority of times people respect that.

Vaping on the other hand is quite common.

I use DDG and if the result is not what I'm looking for, I add !g to forward the query to Google.

80% of the times, I need to add !g because DDG is clueless.

I wish I could say otherwise but Google search results are still better overall than DDG.

Sure, for some specific thematics, DDG will do better. But that's for quite niche subjects.

Very surprised to see people talk about DDG like it's at the same level or better than Google.

They did so with temporary weights or other methods like cables to make sure it didn't get worse or collapse.

It's not a very long video :/ it's mentioned in there.

I must be missing something in this comment.

Can someone tell me how chicken coops are related to that ?

I don't agree with this """gatekeeping""" ideology for the Fediverse.

Who's to decide if the threads user are a good addition or not ?

Can't we just give them a chance and then decide if we want to defederate. It feels like pre-emptive moderation.

It's rejecting people just because they are using Threads instead of attempting to filter the bad users of Threads through moderation. Also even if you try to keep these bad users out nothing prevents them to create an account on your instance and keep on bring a nuisance. The only solution to these users is moderation with defederation being the ultimate moderation tool.

Let's give new users a chance to fit in the Fediverse and defederate only if the issue arises but not before that.

Isn't bringing people to it a quite important thing ?

I know this is a polarizing subject but in my opinion there is not much as important as increasing a social network userbase.

I'm sticking to Lemmy, but I'm pragmatic, I know it may never grow enough so that a niche community can live.

Right now my favorite game doesn't have a community and even if I create one and actively post to it I know we will have 3/4 people subscribe to it at peak.

Overwatch has a very small community on Lemmy even though it's a pretty huge game still. It's thousands of time smaller than the subreddit. I accepted it and moved on but that kind of sucks.

So bringing users and content creators to Lemmy through other more mainstream social networks through activityPub is fine by me. As long as you control when to cut the cord I don't really see the issue.

It's sad Mastodon is not pushed more as an alternative.

Instead people will go from one shitty social network to another.
