I just want to say thank you for providing the instance.

For myself, lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are strictly politically one way or another and perhaps somewhat intolerant of other views. I like how this space is something that can be a gateway into interacting with users of all persuasions without the “quick, defederate them all” nonsense. I only hope and wish that lemm.ee grows to maintain it’s position as one of the key cornerstones of the lemmy community.

Thanks for providing this space and persisting. I can imagine it has not been easy.

Are the problem with the people who watch the video, or the people who create, or host the videos?

Valid question. After reading his opinions, why would anyone follow his mastodon?

If he’s a good YouTuber, it’s like following a footballer who has shit opinions. I’ll watch you play football, but screw following your nonsense stream of consciousness.

Oh I know. It is your call. I’ve not seen much evidence of tutanova/proton Lemmy adverts. This service is quite new in comparison and there is clearly some astroturfing on lemmy. We don’t know how good or bad they are tbh. The fact they are pushing it rather than relying on word of mouth is a little sketchy.

Whether it is deleted or not, I’ll at least call out advertising so people are aware rather than being led to believe it is recommended.

We don’t know what it is, but there is history on Lemmy of them listing out every feature, asking I’d anyone used it as they didn’t. Why woupd anyone do that? More blatant in the past, but worth being on guard against them.

Plus advertising e2e encrypted emaill which is impossible unless recipient is same service.

Probably an ad, but much more subtle if so. The old ones were so blatant. :)

What makes you do it with a smile? What does it give you that proton or tutanota doesn’t?

I’m in awe. I respect your commitment to free and open information :). Much respect.

Legend. That is impressive. 50 per day?

Is this like a daily hobby?

Like the time when a kid in school tried to create their own nickname and everyone noped the fuck out and carried on calling them the same thing they were.

You don't get to pick your nickname, even if you started trying 20 years ago, FF.

You know it's a 3 character documentation change.

Why are you here exactly?

Is google needed? Could a mail alternative like proton mail be better?

Unless Quake was made with Copilot, that seems very unlikely:

Those that truly dislike MS and telemetry won't.

If I'm using non-free it is Jet Brains.

I tend to use Kate, KDevelop.

MS still slurping code into Copilot from Github and telemetry in VSCode.

By browsers do you mean search engines in the browsers? I use DDG for search. Firefox is king, browsers wise.

It is closed but not necessarily bad. It was rated highly on the Mozilla Privacy Not Included.

Your logic was insane and misplaced. We weren't talking about descendants. It was a weird logical reach.

This whole debate is about an 11 year old girl and 2 men that got mauled after she ran past a dog and got attacked. This debate is about safety and whether these dogs should be allowed as pets. You may want to shift the debate and move the goalposts, but no way is it justifiable.

If the people defending the breed of dogs aren't going to bother coming up with solutions, their views won't be taken seriously. A young girl got attacked here. A 10 year old got killed 2 years ago. A middle aged lady a few months ago in the UK. Dog attacks in Britain have quadrupled and this breed of dog is the largest perpetrator. If you are advocating maintaining the status quo, you are advocating for more deaths.

I agree they should be jailed and dog owners of many breeds should be licensed.

That is very tangential. You could just admit you were wrong and that it wasn't a British creation, name wise. Seems your ego is a little too frail for that. Sorry to see that.

To save dogs, you would advocate killing the children of slaves? The lengths you'll go…

I know the debate about nature vs nurture and it's relevant in some debates. Not this one. People do not have lions and tigers as pets. Some zoo owners probably feel they're passive with the right ownership. Doesn't make owning them good and sensible. If people cannot act sensibly (and they won't), legislation has to kick in.

It is a viscious cycle, and I dont disagree that owners are part of the problem. Shrugging and going "ah well" doesn't fix the problem. Doing nothing gives owners almost the legal freedom to use their dogs to kill folk and get away with it.

Claiming ignorance to avoid solving a problem is weak or deceptive.

These dogs are bred to be strong. To kill. They don't belong in homes and society near children. They should never have been bred in the first place nor imported, but that happened, so gotta deal with it.

People buy these dogs to be intimidating. Compensating for something, I expect. If people are licensed and can prove training, fine, keep them, but if they have already been raised bad, it's probably too late and too risky. A school girls runs past, and bam, disfigured.
