She’s not the best, but she’s not the worst. Her biggest crime is what, using insider knowledge to trade stocks?

It’s not like she gave a list of our spies to the Russians. Or likely sold classified documents. She didn’t betray our allies. (Do I mean the Ukrainians, the Afghanis, or the Kurds?)

She was miles better than Manchin or McConnell. She wasn’t our best, but she sure as hell wasn’t a Republican. She got vilified primarily because she was a prominent Democrat for years. And it stuck because there was more than zero legitimacy.

They vilified her so much that some douchebag went after her and her husband with a hammer. There’s a reason they didn’t go after Manchin or Sinema or Menendez or McConnell or Gaetz.

There’s literally communication in these comments that point to older communication on the same.

You’re being combative about it.

One of the few things we know about Vance is that he doesn’t believe what he says.

I’d take the coin flip liar over the traitor.

When it’s ready, because the admins do more detailed research than just “bigger number better”.

My typical method of checking is to look at the mod log at the very bottom right of this page (next to Legal), and search for their name. Activity there does not rule someone out, especially bans from .ml, but it’ll help you make a judgement. Then I’ll spot check their history, both for content and how often they post. People who are going to be on the site regularly anyway tend to be better moderators, as they’ll both notice their notifications and spot things without being prompted.

Unfortunately, tech_memes is still too new to offer any suggestions on who to pick. The one name I do have I’d quickly rule out from my previous interactions with them (likely troll).

Generally moderating a community shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes a day (a little more some days, a little less most every other day). It’s part of the reason we try to find a lot of moderators to do a low number of communities each. Hopefully you’re not getting that many reports on different content.

If you’re still having issues, reach back out to us in a week or two and I’ll see what I can do.

Thanks,

All that does is allow someone in the middle to potentially read your traffic. So what’s secret about the traffic between you and the Internet archive? If it’s only your login details, that seems like a you problem.

It wasn’t long ago that most of the internet was http only.

So you’ve… compromised your own security. Grats?

Just as likely he’s now sending a pittance to other people in order to say he wasn’t targeting a group. You can send out a LOT of hundred dollar bills before you approach a billion.

What was the “gut” thing again?

Yeah, there’s another one not marked that’s been up for hours. “Tulsi Gabbard to be Director of National Security.” Yeah, okay. Funny joke.

For the uninformed, this is funny (and sarcasm) because there’s mountains of evidence of them together. Besides, you know, picking him for AG. But he tries this defense all the time anyway, and people actually believe it.

Just like explicitly Trump calling up members of Congress to kill the bipartisan border bill, and then blaming the Democrats for not passing a border bill. They sold that one on the campaign trail too, and it worked.

No. This isn’t a thing you need to “both sides”. There is nuance.

It’s bad for Netanyahu if settlers die. It’s good for him if Israeli people are threatened. His appeal is that he’ll protect them (including through killing others). If he fails to do that too often, he loses.

Hamas is fine with people on their side dying. Israel is not. Israel is accomplishing their goals through genocide. Palestinians would love to genocide Israel, but they can’t. That doesn’t excuse Israel actually currently committing genocide.

And there’s no excuse for settling land in areas that will keep Israelis in danger. The first settlers are Zionists, later people living there won’t (necessarily) be Zionists.

They don’t like algorithms. They want you to select which content you see.

That’s all I’ve got. Mastodon is a better, more open tech. And it’s pretty easy to get set up, relatively. It’s insane that companies haven’t jumped on it.

You don’t even have to quit Twitter. You can just post to more than one place and give people the option.

The same strategy is Hamas’s primary MO. If Israelis die, it’s good for Hamas. If Gazans die, it’s good for Hamas. On one hand, Israel should get a hell of a lot more blame than the Democrats. On the other, you can see how this powers Hamas strategy.

How much does the setup cost? assuming I’m already self hosting and have some disk space.

VPN and a seed box?

The House is still being counted. It’s very close, but not over yet.

He doesn’t have the House yet.

Youth church functions were always more depraved than anything agnostic.

The Vice President must be eligible to be president. Obama is not eligible for the VP position.
