That’s most likely due to low rankings. Lemmy doesn’t prevent it.

My guess: The kids who used Discord for gaming grew up, and just went with the familiar thing when starting new communities and projects.

Also, Discord did heavy marketing early on, until it carved out a network effect. So here we are.

On the bright side:

Aggressive garbage collection and automatic thread locking are optional settings in most web forum software I’ve seen.

Lemmy shares some of the important parts of Usenet, and could develop into something that comes close.

• Terrible format for archiving knowledge
• Terrible tool for retrieving knowledge
• Locks community access behind a corporate license agreement
• Hands control of community-created content to a corporation
• Prevents indexing by web search engines
• Antithetical to interoperability
• Privacy-hostile

A web forum is far better in most cases. If you can’t manage to run your own, there are plenty of lemmy servers that will do it for you. Even an email list (with searchable archives) would be better than Discord.

If you have collaborative documents that outgrow the forum format, use a wiki.

If real-time chat is needed, irc or matrix.

A project hosting its community on Discord is a project that won’t get my contributions.

I wonder how this trend will affect fuel use. Seems like a win for the environment.

Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution

Section 3: Disqualification from office for insurrection or rebellion

Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

This is true in C, but not in D.

It’s written correctly. “All but” in the sense used here means almost. “All but certain” means a hair’s breadth from absolute certainty.

(Also, “lose” is the word you were looking for; not “loose”.)

Micron Technology, Texas Instruments, and GlobalFoundries count among other top contenders, WSJ added citing industry executives.

It’s good to see they’re not putting all their eggs in one basket.

How about backing up that letter with some lobbyists?

How would you have to modify the process to make liquid soap, like Dr Bronners, and skip the molds?

dedent() can help with that.

I don’t think regular users have access to that info on lemmy. (Maybe you’re thinking of a kbin feature?)

In most places, there’s money in enforcement, and power in disenfranchisement.

I don’t know what Thailand-specific motives might be in play here, if any.

I’m completely for shutting down the affordable connectivity program

The ISPs should have to provide the service at a minimal rate to same said families and also offer 100/100 minimum service to anyone

Maybe reverse the order of those ideas, so as not to make the lives of people who are already struggling even harder.

in the regions they operate.

ISPs would then have an incentive to avoid operating in poor neighborhoods. Mitigating that could be tough, given that internet service deployments are already patchy in many places.

Another approach might be municipal broadband, which big ISPs have been lobbying against for ages, often successfully.

“I think he would tidy my wife away if I left her in there.”

Not being a Wales resident, I’m uncertain how to take that comment.

Seems like someone with foreknowledge of the reversal could have made some money there, doesn’t it?

if other people aren’t posting it seems silly to penalize the ones who are

I suppose that’s an easy statement to agree with. However, a sensible rate limit is not a penalty.

awwwwwwwwwwwww
