“The cost of bringing a defamation suit to trial can be enormous, often exceeding a quarter-million dollars’ worth of expenses, to say nothing of the value of attorney time,” […]
Mr. Gottlieb and his team refer to their cases as a “hobby” in service to […]
Insane.
Given the spread and damage of misinformation, maybe it’s time for state prosecution to not only pursue physical danger criminals, but also system society relevant destabliators.
- Comment on Why does this website have a loading screen to process my cookie preferences? 7 months ago:
Usually, your consent is a simple yes/no flag, no and saving that in a cookie is enough.
I have seen this “processing” before. My assumption was that it sets cookies on third parties websites instead of only the one you visit. The basis for that assumption being that some ad network and tracker websites have/offer “opt out cookies”.
I haven’t checked whether that’s actually the case.
- Comment on What was Thoth's message for us? 7 months ago:
Thoth was more than a messenger of a single message. Quoting Wikipedia:
He was the god of the Moon, wisdom, knowledge, writing, hieroglyphs, science, magic, art and judgment.
Thoth played many vital and prominent roles in Egyptian mythology, such as maintaining the universe, and being one of the two deities (the other being Ma’at) who stood on either side of Ra’s solar barque. In the later history of ancient Egypt, Thoth became heavily associated with the arbitration of godly disputes,[6] the arts of magic, the system of writing, and the judgment of the dead.

Very cute
- Comment on How does delisting a game make/save money? 8 months ago:
the relevant quote:
it’s about these special tax breaks that these companies can take in the immediate aftermath of a merger. So the company expects to write off something up to $3.5 billion connected to content costs as a result. And part of getting that tax benefit means they have to pull some of these shows from the service

- Comment on If there was an afterlife, how would it work? 11 months ago:
There is no rationality in speculating about the afterlife.
- Comment on can a hacker hack my accounts remotely?? 1 year ago:
Yes
Unless you’re talking about local accounts, remote accounts are inherently remote by definition and additional attack vectors apply.

to people’s circadian rhythms
it also causes a conflict between human time-schedule and animals like pets, livestock, and other cared for animals
They don’t know and don’t care for a clock change. They work with bio-rhythm and familiarization alone.

What? I don’t follow.
- Comment on Could we use AI to update 4:3 media to 16:9? 1 year ago:
I read the table example again and I don’t see how it describes a solution.
- Comment on Could we use AI to update 4:3 media to 16:9? 1 year ago:
Stretching while preserving proportions is still stretching. You change the spacing and relative sizing between objects.
Framing is not only about the border of the frame.
- Comment on What does going to a mental institution do for you? 1 year ago:
Yes, developing coping mechanisms can be helpful and fruitful.
Other mental mechanisms were useful in the evolutionary past, or are useful in some cases, but not others.
Anxiety can be useful and important in selective situations. But when it generalized or fears the non issue it becomes unhelpful or problematic. When it has negative impact on us without usefulness we call it a disorder.
- Comment on What does going to a mental institution do for you? 1 year ago:
Therapy can help you manage burdens, and most importantly, manage and ease the influence they have over you® mental.
It’s not about solving practical issues that can’t be solved. It’s about how to approach, view, accept, and handle them.
Having mental burdens doesn’t help resolving the unsolvable. In du cases the mental mechanisms are not helpful but detrimental. Easing them can improve both subjective and objective, practical situations.

Why do you support them?
Why support them without disclosing reasons?
Im talking about their Settlements and their military campaigns NOT about their government.
What does that even mean? Both of those are inherently political and driven from government. I don’t see how you can separate them.
- Comment on Why the internet make it hard for people to self-promote 1 year ago:
Title talks about “the internet”, your text talks about “social media” - and threads so seemingly a subset of social media.
The internet doesn’t make it hard. It’s incredibly easy. Sending emails is easy. Hosting a website is easy. Posting to platforms is easy.
Platforms and communities restrict - through their own rules - what they deem acceptable within their own scope. That’s more about defining scope than “making it hard”.
Reasonable self promotion is often accepted on reddit and lemmy. Blatant advertising is not. Be part of the community, or run an ad for an ad. Be a good participant rather than a spammer.
- Comment on Why google son't sells products instead of killing them? 1 year ago:
They’re integrated in-house products. To get them into a sellable state would require additional effort that’s just not worth it to them.

- Comment on Why does lemmy have it, so any link takes you off the page instead of opening in a new window? 1 year ago:
If you force tabs to open in a new tab/window, how do you open it in the same tab/window?
Ultimately, it is about user control and possibly accessibility.
Depending on your input device you can open a link in a new tab directly through
- Middle mouse click
- Ctrl + mouse click
- Ctrl + Enter
The alternative or fallback is to use the context menu like you say.
Who says they should categorically and always open in new tabs though? In what contexts? On what kind of environment behavior does that depend? Does it assume a standard single open, auto focus, close, get back to the previous page? What makes a navigate back worse?
If you want a general, categorical solution for your preference, as long as Lemmy does not provide a setting for it, a simple browser addon could automatically adjust all links on a websites pages, or your browser may offer it.
- Comment on What does the 🛞 emoji mean on Lemmy? 1 year ago:
It works fine in Firefox.
Screenshot of the headline with wheel emoji rendered in Firefox
Inspecting it, here on my instances Feddit.de rendered theme shows two fonts in use - a fallback for the emoji because I assume Lato does not include it:
- Comment on Why words like 'okay' and 'taxi' are universally understood across the world but survival related ones like 'help', 'water', 'food' remained nation specific? 1 year ago:
The survival related ones came to have names because they are integral to survival. People needed to address them, and so they did. With local isolation or dialects or divergence.
Okay, taxi, cola became popular and expanded their reach. They did not arise in individual and dispersed areas, they traveled.
- Comment on Is Windows 11 decent yet? 1 year ago:
You did not disclose your issues. It hasn’t changed much since its release, so going by the “yet”, no, it’s still the same.
- Comment on Where are you? Can you move? 1 year ago:
This is more of a philosophical question (touching multiple aspects) that doesn’t seem fitting to no stupid questions.
You already mention the common aspects to it. We put our conscience, our awareness behind our eyes because of how visually focused we are. We put our body center to our torso and heart, because it’s both central to the physical body and the heart and lungs are an noticeable and continuously active part of our physical body.
When you ask you first have to ask yourself, what are you asking for? You used the terms “you” and “self”. Where do we draw the borders of those? Do people put themselves differently or is it the same for all of us? Is it objectifiable or subjective?
I’d interpret “you” as the entirety of me. Including body and mind/conscience. Placing myself in it does not make sense, because I am all of it.
“Self” on the other hand be interpreted as consciousness rather than your entirety. But not necessarily so.
- Comment on Is there a more politically conservative part of the fediverse? 1 year ago:
That definition doesn’t seem to fit the verb conserve or adjective conserving. If it’s specifically about government, wouldn’t it be better to use a term for that instead of the broad conservative? Slim Government?

Following that cascade, didn’t you just change the probability of door 2? It was 1/3 like the other two. Then you opened door three. Why would door two be 2/3 now? Door 2 changes for no disclosed reason, but door 1 doesn’t?
