Why don’t you have a second account?
Lazy. Don’t care if my shit gets fucked. But if you do care if your shit gets fucked, then you shouldn’t rely on centralized social media.

Humans are animals, and humans invented programming. Therefore, programming is applied biology.

I mean on a long enough time scale, no it didn’t or won’t.
- Comment on How often do thieves (and identity thieves) actually get caught and served justice? Are there actual examples of law enforcement actually doing anything? (Because I think most cops are just lazy) 1 day ago:
I watch a lot of true crime. Over the years I’ve come to the conclusion that the cops are just really shitty at anything that isn’t just violence, so they rarely do good detective work even when someone gets hurt or killed either. So many cases are ruined by sloppy or negligent detective work that we know about. Since we know that the cops are systematic not doing the detective work for most other crimes, imagine how bad it is for violent crimes and they just don’t keep track…

- Comment on FYI: TeamViewer is *much* better than Chrome Remote Desktop for aging hardware 5 days ago:
Have you tried RustDesk? TeamViewer was monitoring my traffic and they didn’t like that I was using it at school so they kept closing my sessions after five minutes, so…no more TeamViewer 😆. Haven’t missed TeamViewer in the slightest.

ME TOO!
I feel like the signal processing community is really passionate about their work. It comes out in their books. I know I can talk for hours and hours and hours about signal processing. And my DSP professor was like that too. That was such a fun class.

I don’t even know what instance I am on.
You are on Lemm.ee. Unfortunately, this is the instance this post is about.
and how this matters to be honest.
In about 17 days, you will no longer be able to login with your lemm.ee account. You should sign up for an account on any other instance. Examples include lemmy.sdf.org (the one I’m on) or any of the sites listed here: join-lemmy.org/instances
Lemmy (and PieFed and mBin, but I’m just going to talk about Lemmy for now) attempts to provide an experience inspired by Reddit, but not controlled exclusively by one party. Loosely speaking, where Reddit is only one website and the whole social network belongs solely to Reddit, the social network spanned by Lemmy is actually a bunch of smaller websites that talk to each other. If the Reddit website goes down, the whole social network is down. If a Lemmy instance goes down, only that little part of network goes down.
Unfortunately, the admins of your instance have politely posted that your instance is going down on June 30th. This applies to you and anyone whose username ends in @lemm.ee, but it does not apply to (for example) me because I am not a user on your instance. (I am on lemmy.sdf.org, which you can infer from my username @PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S@lemmy.sdf.org, which ends with @lemmy.sdf.org.)
Which instance you pick depends on what you want to see, what kind of administration you want, your political beliefs and how important they are, and who you want to be allowed to talk to. For my use case, I use SDF Lemmy because we don’t defederate (roughly, cut off communication) from anyone, even people who unambiguously deserve to be cut off, the people here are pretty chill, and because SDF.org has a history of public service literally much older than I am, so SDF Lemmy will probably be around for a while. Occasionally SDF Lemmy is out for like 24 hours and the SDF.org admins are a bit slow to respond, but that’s fine for me. But also, SDF is a pretty big instance now. In order to not concentrate too much power in the hands of SDF (or anyone else), you should probably choose a less crowded instance.

Not anymore you can’t
- Comment on Press F to pay respects 1 week ago:
You won’t be able to log in, post, comment, etc., with this account. Basically, the website lemm.ee is going to be gone forever. Lemm.ee is how you do stuff in the Fediverse. The rest of the Fediverse will still be up, and the instances you interacted with will have copies of your posts and comments, but your account will otherwise be dead.
So you probably do want to change instances.

You’re back? I thought slrpnk.net was gonna be down for a month. Glad to see you here in any case.
- Comment on Press F to pay respects 1 week ago:
I honestly don’t know. I haven’t had to change instances for a while.
- Comment on Press F to pay respects 1 week ago:
Now there’s a big ceremonial cry-in for an instance
Tbh I thought it was low-hanging fruit and I wondered why no one was picking it. Wasn’t really paying attention to the admin drama.
- Comment on Press F to pay respects 1 week ago:
I’m on SDF for its no-defederation policy and because SDF outside of Lemmy has a proven track record of public service and longevity. Like SDF is much older than I am. Occasionally there are hiccups and the SDF team is a bit slow to respond, but otherwise it’s been a good time. And the people here seem pretty chill too.
For my needs it’s the best one. But you might want something with a curated feed, a particular political orientation, or something else.

- Comment on If no government shall bare arms against its own citizens. Then what is happening in LA? 2 weeks ago:
citizens are the government though.
Did you mean that people in government are citizens? Because I’m a citizen of my country and not in the government.
if they are not, its not democratic country
Correct. The United States is not a democracy. It’s barely even a “representative democracy”.
- Comment on If no government shall bare arms against its own citizens. Then what is happening in LA? 2 weeks ago:
no government shall bare arms against its own citizens
Is this some kind of quote? Because 90% of what all governments do is exactly that: using weapons against their own citizens.

- Comment on Do De-Transitioners validate some right wing talking points? 2 weeks ago:
Right wingers are never ever correct. Even in the rare cases where an individual right winger says a correct thing, it inevitably is justified with ass-backwards right wing logic.
As I have said before: the general public needs to adopt a policy of zero capitulation to reactionary frameworks.

They do? Like I get that’s the pretext for why we remain their subjects, but do we really believe they will ever work for us? The only people I remember them ever “working for” are white landowners.
