and except for the nonsensical idea that water is soft and bouncy and it is more comfortable to land into it… it is not.

This seems to make the most sense, so no matter whether it is true or not, i decided to trust this

Touché, my bad.
The rest however still applies. What you are demanding is not possible and never will be (for good reason).
The only way you could achieve what you want is either with action of the mods, or by establishing your own community, where you can ban whomever you wish.
- Comment on When you block someone on Lemmy, does it stop them from seeing your posts? 2 days ago:
I can. Can you? The fact you are mad you can’t censor people does not mean i can’t read.
So i used my power of reading to check what the problem is.

You want to ban “bad artists” from the comics community and you are mad you can’t do it.
Here is a solution to your problem. If you really do have “consensus” as you claim, take all the consenting people, go and make your own comics community, with blackjack, hookers, and your own rules you can enforce.
That is how it works.
- Comment on When you block someone on Lemmy, does it stop them from seeing your posts? 2 days ago:
No, you should not. You have a control over what you want to see. You are not in control of what others want or can see and demanding otherwise is just laughable. Once you publish something on online discussion forum, people can see it. Deal with it.
- Comment on When you block someone on Lemmy, does it stop them from seeing your posts? 2 days ago:
No, doing anything else would be crap. You are free to ignore whomever you want, but demanding right to control what others see is insane.

First, attackers hit Trivy, a vulnerability scanner with more than 100,000 users and contributors that is embedded in thousands of CI/CD pipelines. Up next: Axios, an open-source JavaScript library that has about 100 million weekly downloads and runs in 80 percent of cloud and code environments.

I am not embarrassed, you should be. Crawl back to the conspiracy shithole where you live, or, alternatively, learn to read and educate yourself on the topic before you ask wtf questions publicly.

into your head and actually realizing everything
that’s what people usually take drugs for.
- Comment on Can people tell sex of a dog just by looking at the dog? 1 week ago:
it is not a personal attack on you, but it still doesn’t makes sense.
if someone asks “can i find good french restaurant in this city?” “no” is not the correct answer, just because i, or even majority of people, don’t know one.
it IS possible to tell sex of the dog. it depends on the breed, it may be easier with some, and people who are well familiar with the specific breed will be more successful than just random person.
but the fact that lot of people will answer incorrectly, or don’t care, doesn’t imply it is not possible.
- Comment on Can people tell sex of a dog just by looking at the dog? 1 week ago:
point of my comment is: “you are wrong. it is possible to tell sex of a dog. whether some people around you are wrong all the time is no proof one way or the other.”
- Comment on Can people tell sex of a dog just by looking at the dog? 1 week ago:
Nope unless you see them pee.
nonsense
People are wrong about the sex of dogs all the time. they don’t care
people can be wrong about what is 8+7, that doesn’t mean it is impossible to tell what the result is.

well good news, since it is happening to all of us, you may actually keep getting worse, but keep your place on that curve 😆
- Comment on What jobs do people from very upper-class wealthy families get? Or don't they have jobs and live off their families' wealth? 2 weeks ago:
pretty sure the answer is “whichever they want, unless they are limited intelectually”. not everyone can become nasa engineer, but everyone can become nepotistic manager in their dad’s company.
- Comment on What's wrong with Ellen DeGeneres? 2 weeks ago:
she’d get caught up in a bigger lie
how would she get caught in a bigger lie? it is her fucking business when she does or does not want to drink alcohol. and even if she drank alcohol some other time, does not mean she must be in mood for it every waking moment. i know, hindsight is 20/20, but the point is that people need to normalize not getting drunk and not having to explain to anyone why they don’t want to.
- Comment on What's wrong with Ellen DeGeneres? 2 weeks ago:
to reveal she was pregnant by offering her alcohol and Mariah basically had to admit she was pregnant as to why she wouldn’t drink alcohol
kind of lame that the only reason people can imagine for not drinking an alcohol is “i am pregnant”
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
and i answered that. people are terrible at diagnosing themselves. even if someone gives you some criteria, it is hard to put them in the context if you don’t have the experience and comparison with others. that is the job for the professional.

unless Borat runs your countries
if borat ran your country it would be heavy improvement for you. are you sure you want to be dismissive about other countries?
so to recap: this is the truck for which they make navigation for trucks.
data from such navigationd for trucks can’t be useful for civilian cars for reasons stated above, which was my point. this concludes my contribution to this discussion.
- Comment on Is there a FOSS version of Waze or Google Maps? 3 weeks ago:
On another note, how does the bread get from the bakery to the restaurant where you are if not for trucks?
ok, lets define the terms.
this is the truck (the one they make special navigation for. the one that is basically just a van does not need special navigation, it uses the same one as passenger cars.):
so what kind of restaurants are you visiting and how much bread do they use there? 😂
- Comment on Is there a FOSS version of Waze or Google Maps? 3 weeks ago:
it might probably depend on geography, but where i live trucks have one lane and they they are forbidden by law to block the other ones (not that they respect that to the letter). but the trucks may be standing still while the other lanes are fine (or at least not standing still). then the information from truck navigation means nothing for me in passenger car. another way is that trucks run some specific routes, they drive from a factory to some warehouse, but they don’t randomly drive aroud the city center.
they also just can’t physically take some routes (sharp turnes, narrow roads, low bridges, etc.)
so the data from trucks only cover small part of the road network and top of that some of them is not relevant for passenger cars.
- Comment on Is there a FOSS version of Waze or Google Maps? 3 weeks ago:
traffic data from trucks can’t be very useful for civilian traffic.
- Comment on Is there a FOSS version of Waze or Google Maps? 3 weeks ago:
but it might have sounded like you separate this two, the point of the commenter above, i believe, was that google maps and waze now share the same data. i do believe that getting all these contributors and keeping them, is the reason why google didn’t kill the waze already but is just slow-crippling it instead.
some volunteers might be happy to contribute data to waze, while they might not be as happy to do the same for google.
