Net neutrality is about ISPs though.

I really, really suspect that the big Lemmy instances are being run by Reddit admins or spooks or some-such. They’re moderating their instances in the exact same way Reddit did minus the profiteering. The censorship is the exact same.
It’s just the reality of online content moderation. The good mods/admins are people who are passionate about a topic and want to provide a space for discussion and community building. When it comes to the “power mods” or whatever, like those we saw on reddit who moderated 100+ subs, they’re just in it to stroke their own egos.
Yeah it’s honestly insane. Getting to the point where I think I’m just going to filter out the technology and politics communities despite being interested in the content and in some of the discussions. There are so many over the top toxic people on lemmy. In one of the youtube adblocking threads, there was a guy who said something along the lines of “honestly it’s worth it for me to have youtube premium” and he was downvoted and called a paid google employee. Like it’s so absurd. You can’t say anything that goes against the circlejerk without being dogpiled on. It’s behavior that’s far worse and more consistently worse than anything I’ve ever seen on reddit. It’s not the first time I’ve seen stuff like that. I remember all the backlash when sync came out. I like the app and the dev so I paid for it but all these FOSS bros were acting like the dev is the second coming of Hitler for daring to make money for his work. It’s exhausting. I hate ads and subscriptions but I need to live my life at some point and just begrudgingly accept them. I can’t spend all day seething about it like a lot of people on lemmy do. Again, it’s just kind of exhausting reading a lot of threads now. I thought I was going crazy but it’s nice to see that other people have similar observations.
Yes, because no one has ever smoked before they reached the legal age.
As if anyone uses threads.
People always forget he was literally sued into buying twitter. He never wanted to buy it, he was just playing stupid games like he always does.
If you’re going to run Minecraft then Google “Paper MC”.
Honestly would much rather recommend Fabric unless you’re looking to host a large scale public server. Serverside optimization mods like Lithium and Starlight are great and preserve the vanilla gameplay unlike Paper which breaks or disables a lot of mechanics by default.
Hmm I’ll try that. Mine are all alphabetical and definitely not in the order that I signed in with.
This has been bugging me too. I think it goes in alphabetical order which is frustrating.
Social democracy and socialism are entirely different.
Huh? I mean I’d argue that the local authorities have the most responsibility in this case. I don’t really think google is too responsible here. I guess you could make an argument that people tried reporting it but ultimately the local authorities should have clearly blocked it off. It’s really no different than using an old physical map; it shows you the way but things change so you always need to use discretion. I can’t count how many times I’ve followed my GPS only to be blocked by construction or something along those lines. In those situations, there needs to be clear signage or a barricade which is basically what I’m arguing is applicable here.
i seriously doubt that he saw that the bridge was out, and then chose to trust the gps anyway
Well yeah, in the article it says that visibility was bad. I was more just making the point that discretion is important when using a GPS. That said, I’d say that the local authorities fucked up the most. A bridge collapsed a decade ago and it’s not blocked off? It should be obvious that you can’t drive that way.
Since we don’t know the specifics it’s impossible to say specifically how much each part contributed, but I’d say most of the responsibility is on the municipality.
I agree entirely. The local authorities should clearly block off and indicate hazards like this.
If that person drives off a cliff because they trust a gps over their own eyes, then that’s fully their issue.
Given that there weren’t any signs or barriers, it sounds like the local authorities are the ones at fault here. It could even be that that didn’t file the proper paperwork to indicate that it collapsed. Google gets it’s information from some database and if their sources aren’t accurately reporting data as they should, google wouldn’t have any way of knowing that the bridge collapsed. Ultimately, hazards like this should be clearly blocked off. Google doesn’t have the power to do that.
Why would the time of day change what apps people are using? Same with how long the poll was up? Neither of those factors have any relevance to the topic of the poll.
Oh no! Someone wants compensation for their labor?? The horror!
Anakin’s “You look old” line felt like a poke at viewers complaining about Hayden not being de-aged much in the Obi-Wan show.
Thought it was a reference to the Rebels scene where Ahsoka and Rex reunited.
Google isn’t an ISP when it comes to youtube. Yes, they are an ISP in the context of Google fiber but this is completely different. It would be a violation of net neutrality if they slowed certain sites to fiber users.
