Why does the rest of the fediverse die in this hypothetical scenario? Presumably other instances are still alive and offering an alternative that excludes whatever shit Facebook's instance would have.

Fair point. And this is why unions are beneficial to the working class, and also why shitty companies like Starbucks try to bust unions.

That's how it works in every state, that's federal law.

A higher federal minimum wage would solve this problem. Employers are required by law to make up the difference between the base wage and the federal minimum wage ($7.25/hr) if nobody tips.

But obviously $7.25 isn't a living wage either, so any tipped employee that actually makes the federal minimum is living almost entirely on tips.

2001 is divisive. I love that movie, but I know so many people that find it insufferably slow.

I think it's just too "spacious" for lack of a better term. It only presents the bare minimum in plot and focuses almost entirely on the cinematography. But just think about it in the context of 1968. This was during the height of the space race, and the film explores the core concept: what is the destiny of humanity and where did we come from? It's so fucking massive in scope that the only way to do it justice is to just give the viewer space to digest.

As such it asks a lot from the viewer to fill in the gaps and use the film as more of a meditation than a passive viewing experience.

1. There Will Be Blood
2. The Fabelmans
3. Gangs of New York
4. Memento
5. The Dark Knight

This is an incredibly difficult question for me, so I have to list my runners up:

• The Prestige
• Shawshank Redemption
• Pulp Fiction
• Spirited Away
• 2001: A Space Oddysey
• Dallas Buyers Club

I'm probably an idiot for not including The Godfather but it's been a long time since I saw it so I probably need to watch it again.

Yea I think it's still in "discussion mode." I don't really know how the project is managed or what the issue lifecycle looks like. AFAICT there isn't any kind of RFC process, you just discuss in a GH issue until one of the maintainers gives the green light for someone to make a PR.

Here's a relevant GH issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/317

I can code, but I've never been a moderator. What kind of mod tools do you want?

EDIT: More discussion about mod tools: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3281

Unfortunately I think MLMs trap plenty of educated people. It's just a blind spot.

Most scientists agree it is finite.

Ah it would seem it's too late lol

I just hope the capitalist bootlickers stay there. I'm tired of bad faith arguments that try to slow down class solidarity.

How did you get this measurement?

I got a similar reply from a mod account (I forget which subreddit) because I used the word "crazy." Got linked to this list: https://www.autistichoya.com/p/ableist-words-and-terms-to-avoid.html

To clarify, Manjaro Linux with proprietary drivers works just fine with my 3070m. It's NixOS that doesn't work for some reason.

I will switch as soon as I can get proprietary Nvidia drivers to work on my laptop.

Thanks for plugging those other communities.

The sidebar mentions one of the community goals is to discuss car alternatives. I do see some posts like this after scrolling more. Maybe I just need to spend more time here to calibrate. Anyway, I hope that I get to see more posts in the future that discuss alternatives and opportunities for activism!

OK thanks for the tip.

You should say "fewer Nazis." Ha! Didn't think you'd meet a grammar Nazi so soon did you?
