2·14 days agoThats a very fair argument.
The mounting of the engine on the max is pretty unique from my understanding. Its much farther in front of the wing than prior versions to fit the larger diameter.

Ha, this Boeing was 18 years old, and happened yesterday : https://lemmy.zip/post/67688789
Now that is comedic timing!

Huh, does the article say that cloud storage is already scanned without suspicion?
Im just impressed that so many of their PRs had quality tests attached to them
Spain keeps making great decisions.
Thank you for the understanding and I do agree with your position as well. I did solicit some input from others that share similar views to you, but i have been too lazy to take action on it.
If you have ideas for how to make the rules more objective while still allowing a space for more light hearted content to flourish, I would love to hear your thoughts. Even if they arent fully formed. A community like c/cat_pictures has an easier time of it i imagine.
Sorry, that wasn’t a jab at you.
Here are some of my thoughts if you are interested. Being on lemmy I assume we have similar values and in general agree on a lot, even if the implementation details are messy. I do try to balance all of the various thoughts i get about how showerthoughts should be moderated, and your thoughts are helpful to me.
From my perspective, if communities didnt have rules and enforcement to keep them on-topic then there wouldn’t be much point in having communities. They would all have the same content.
Whats “on-topic” is a hard judgement call sometimes. A “showerthought” is a pretty loose thing but i remember liking r/showerthoughts for the fun clever discoveries that people made about everyday life, and I assume that most of the subscribers to c/showerthoughts are thinking the same thing, but i dont know.
You are correct that it helped reduce the mod workload which I am trying to find a sustainable balance with. Its a catch 22 with politics because people become really impassioned which means people slip up and say inappropriate things, which means you need to take more mod actions, which makes more people angry at you which makes even more work… but if it makes people impassioned then maybe it means its the most important thing to be talking about…
I think the lemmy ecosystem has a lot of space for talking about politics, if people dont subscribe to those communities as heavily then thats another issue, but maybe not because the conversations can be more meaningful. When I browes lemmy i sort by new or scaled so that i can help build engagement in small communities that otherwise dont get much attention. Imdoingmypart.jpg
I have had my posts removed too and yeah i dont like it.
I am the mod that removed your post. I am always happy to talk about it. I do make mistakes and change my mind at times.
Yeah its a gray rule, no doubt about it, but the alternative is the comm flooded with everyone’s political hot take, which quickly drowns out lots of great posts.

The EUCs are sick. I am always tempted by them. Im not sure how they hold up long term, and they are so damn fast that you need full motorcyle gear realistically, which seems like a bit much for 3km.
It looks like the s18 is a similar price, size, and twice the weight of a brompton bicycle.
The bicycle doesn’t need a charger, no battery to replace after a few years, keeps you active, waterproof, and isn’t prohibited on airplanes.
If you work in the EUC space then it makes sense that you would want to be a user of them.
67·28 days agoWhile Ford is objectively aweful, I don’t hate this specific move. Sure, raise the speed limits on the highways to 120 or 130 if you want, but absolutely use speeding cameras to enforce it. Especially on local streets.
You can donate to the main dev on liberapay also
3·1 month agoThis is a rule that could actually be implemented and would help with the slop vs not-slop judgement call

The rules are in the sidebar of the community. Rule 3 is “be excellent to each other”.
Im pretty sure Mistral was using AWS before. It is a shame
