I tried that. No one ever really joined. I tried posting content, and no one ever engaged with it.

Guess theres not many childcare educators on Lemmy as the reddit community is always super active.

Laptop mobo sounds like overkill for retro gaming compared to a pi clone or some such.

How about corporations fuck off? Let us have our own small slice of people own and ran Internet back again.

Irony deficiency.

Damn they predicted Trump?

Oh shit this isn’t 2003 but a third game? I was wondering why I didn’t remember any vehicles.

I just played ‘99 as that’s all my PC could run.

When you think about it dinner is really breakfast for the late shift.

That makes sense, breakfast food + breakfast food = breakfast.

Why does the tosser egg have some sort of donut shaped cereal in the bowl?

This really highlights how terrible the dialogue is.

Similar for my instance.

Also lots of people do work on election day, we offer heaps of time to vote before the day if you can’t get off for an hour to vote.

Does your legal system work on imprisonment or nothing at all? Sounds very extreme.

Here it’s a small fine, but it’s also a day off and takes like 20 mins to go do plus you can get a delicious sausage. So it’s a no brainer that people go vote.

Greece is a pretty failed state from what I’ve seen, wouldn’t read too much into what they don’t do.

As for why compulsory voting, it helps moderate extremism and represents most of society as a whole.

I blocked them on my instance last year. Fuck threads and any instance that goes along with them.

You’re showing up on my personal instance as well, so I’d say you’re all good on the Lemmy syncing.

Not sure why you’re not syncing on Mastodon, it might just be a time thing? Maybe check back in a day or so?

Chuck it in again for good measure. You can never tax the rich enough.

If you do that, make sure it’s a guaranteed public holiday or have laws in place to ensure workers can get time off to vote.

It is, which is why you have the RIGHT not to use a public space and push your information out to millions of people. You explicitly agreed to it the second you started doing it.

And if it didn’t? If it’s just a simple piece of software made by two people? Should they drop everything to cater to European demands?

Europe invaded the world, then turns around and tells the world to respect its self imposed rule it enforces on others. We can’t even host our own space on the internet without you invading and threatening us to operate your way. The only safety we apparently have is in our small size means we might escape notice.

It’s utter arrogance.

Eh i still dont think itd hold up.

But more reason to hate European arrogance. Imagine if i could go to say your blog, comment my name and address, and sue you for not going into your database and scrubbing it all. Just another way to benefit big companies at the expense of individuals who dont have the tech skills to comply but want to run their own personal sites.

Im fine with it, it means the game is more balanced overall and other builds become equally viable. At the end of the day it gives more choices for players.
