Hey man I get it. But at this point I don’t think there is any reason to think blahaj as an instance is bigoted in any way, and there is every reason to think they are quite the opposite.

I hope you feel better soon. Best we end this chat to reduce trauma and increase healing.

I understand. And I can see the ableism examples that you put forward.

Do you have any example of the Nazi takeover of blahaj? Or that they are bigoted towards bi men or non binary people? Like I want to give you the benefit of the doubt here, but I just see the opposite of what you are claiming.

You are right that people can be blind to such things though. And that is why I am asking you. I very much don’t think I would be blind to a Nazi takeover of blahaj, but I admit you may see something that I don’t.

Once again is there any example that you could point out?

I do hang out with them a lot. A lot of my favorite communities are there. I see no Nazi tolerance at all there let alone “taking over” I also see none of this bigotry that you say is there. Contrarily, I see an active anti bigotry set of rules policies and guidelines in general. In the community culture I also see a strong belief in the stated values.

I am willing to change my views on the instance but what you claim, I am just not seeing.

That sounds not so nice. Is there an example out there or the like?

No, but I’ve seen my fair share of concern trolling.

I am neither a bi man nor nonbinary and care, but I value my time.

I’m sorry. I’m not on blahaj.

Bigotry towards bi men and non-binary folk seems very much not like them.

Are you a bi man or non-binary person? If so I would be interested hearing what sort of discrimination you faced at blahaj. I recommend them quite a bit but would rather not if they are hateful in that way.

Yup! They work really hard to create a strong queer space. That means they work hard to exclude bigotry and the like, even in its micro aggression form.

Yahhhhh. It’s a rough situation to be a non tankie on a tankie instance.

The issue is that a lot? a majority? a great majority? of users there have very “out there” opinions and more and more of them are trying to be more subtle about it.

Avg .ml user: Long winded post about why war is bad

Avg responder: I agree war should be avoided for the harm it causes.

Avg .ml user: Therefore we all must support Russia against the imperialist Ukrainians!

Avg responder: Russia started the war. Why should we support them?

Avg .ml user: Because NATO forced Russia to invade. In reality it was NATOs fault!

Avg responder: I wasted my time here. No point in arguing.

The average non .ml user has been through this or seen this enough to be cautious of seemingly reasonable balanced arguments from .ml users.

I totally get staying, but personally if I woke up and my account was on .ml I would move.

Different policies and rules mostly. Lemmy.ml has a ton of weirdly pro Russia and China admins on it. Very tankie Stalinist. blahaj.zone Is really nicely queer friendly. dbzer0.com has a cool anarchist hacker culture etc.

For me the problem I have with lemmy.ml is that that if you disagree with Russia’s invasion on one news community you’ll find yourself banned from the Linux community.

Out of curiosity what mandatory features would you consider missing?

More up to date news. It has 12GB of vram and competes with the 4060.

Should be available to buy June 18th.

I think you’re mixing things up here. Mac’s are actually VERY performant, both objectively and relative to the on board ram.

There are many critiques that can be made of macOS. But saying it runs inefficiently is not one of them.

Maybe in 2019. In 2026 8Gb of ram alone costs $150

I mean if that’s your standard you need to drop quite a bit more.

Avif is an open source, royalty free, better format administrated by a non profit.

Companies (including Netflix) should be encouraged to contribute to the community under such standards.

Open source, royalty free, better formats, administrated by a non profit Is the goal.

You got to at least like avif. Both in lossless and lossy mode it’s better than the formats from the 90s. It’s community run, patent free, faster, higher quality, and well supported.

Can’t tell if cult member or troll. Either way the comment is of 0 value.

The same applies to this guy. His work is quite impressive, but his antisocial tendencies got him booted from working in the kernel. And now he’s gone down this path.

Hopefully things level out before we see a templeOS level mental health crisis situation.

True. Most of the manufacturing seems to be mid - high value add manufacturing. (Ie washing machines, ventilation, electrical, etc)

Literal commodity manufactured parts will be more global.

I think you’d be surprised. Europe has a quite robust manufacturing base compared to its “cloud hosting” base.

It’s sort of a mirror image of the U.S. yes we can make things here, even at a competitive price, but we’re really behind on cloud offerings.

Right? I’ll take French food critic bots over “you’re absolutely right” every time.
