Hello. I’ve been silenced, removed and blocked enough on lemmy dot ml for being a filthy leftist but not a falling in line defending totalitarian states full blown authoritarian communist. Sooo I’m blocking everything from lemmy dot ml so I don’t have to be bothered with any more of that nonsense. If you are on lemmy dot ml and commenting on me I will not see it. Ta ta.

A long time ago someone was arguing that you only do what you do if it brings in the money to support yourself. I told her that most artists regardless of their career can not support themselves solely on making art. She maintained her position.
I know she’s had a very successful career and she loves what she is doing. I wish everybody could support themselves on what they love doing. Or find something to support themselves that they love doing.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I’m not saying that I agree with right- or center-wing views, and I do condemn transphobia. However, do you think there should be a distinction between critiquing beliefs of transgender people and the

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Guys, have you ever been asked this question: "If your mother and your girlfriend are both drowning, who would you save first?" How would you answer this question?
10·5 天前Ask mum if she’d prefer to drown or survive but you drown while saving her.
Have you considered asking your room mate?

Yeah, except ambulance personnel are primarily trained to take care of wounds and injuries and not physically violent individuals. That’s where police come in.
Mental hospitals don’t have people on hold can leave on zero notice and drive across town with light and sirens. The police are out there all over and are supposedly trained to deal with all kinds of situations that do not need escalation and shooting people in the face. At least in the world outside of USA.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Can anyone recommend some warm winter dog boots for a very cold weather in northern Maine?

Technology@lemmy.world•GitHub Takes Down Rockchip MPP Repository After FFmpeg Copyright ClaimEnglish
7·10 天前It feels counter productive when everyone relies on ffmpeg and there are no proprietary secrets left to protect. Just agree on an open standard that saves time and effort for all companies using it while getting tons of goodwill and positive cosmic vibes and maybe even revenue.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What forums similar to 4chan do you know of? Are there any other forums like this one?
6·10 天前I was thinking just the other day that 4chan is obsolete because people took the worst of it and made it mainstream while forgetting the golden rule of not taking anything seriously.

Europe@feddit.org•Europe gets serious about cutting digital umbilical cord with Uncle Sam's big techEnglish
20·15 天前Sweden is not. Our tax office decided only this year to migrate everything to the Office 365 cloud despite Microsoft admitting that they’d turn over any data to the US government should they be asked to. I think the EU should step in on this.
Overriding browser functionality because of designer preferences or shitty implementation of tracking or whatever.
Don’t fuck with my scrolling.
Don’t fuck with my ctrl clicking to open links in a new tab.
Don’t capture window keyboard events unless you have a really excellent reason to and even then think about it really hard and decide not to.
And learn how to support basic keyboard navigation, damn it. It’s just about marking up your html properly, no scripting required.
I think all of these opinions are popular on the user side.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there a real, actually working way to earn money online without having a job?
241·18 天前Not if you are rich enough you don’t. Most people still do because everybody needs something worthwhile. But you don’t strictly need to work when you have reached some arbitrary level of wealth and ownership.
