Lol, we can’t both be right, unless it’s regional. Someone here is in the lucky 10,000. If it’s me at least that means no crimes have been committed.

In Canada we don’t, but you still fill your own cup. Is that not typical?

Yeah, I’m pretty sure that’s it - it is the same little swirly thing, just coloured differently and mirrored. I’ve seen worse.

Nothing like that. You made a bold claim, I just responded. Let’s call it a day then, no hard feelings I hope.

No offense, but you’re a random internet person to me. I wasn’t about to go on a wild goose chase through cancerous clickbait sites just on your say-so. Basically, you need to give a more specific source, or I don’t believe you.

I feel like that will mostly get me pretty much what I just described.

Really? As in non-primates that respond positively to humorous displays? Mostly I just see people anthropomorphising animals doing accidentally funny things, sometimes including legit pain or fear responses.

On Reddit I once had -200 for being against torture and death penalty (context: child rapist).

Yep, that tracks. I got trashed for criticising (a probably fake story about) a high school kid that beat an 11-year old into unconciousness for hitting his 11-year-old sister after being rejected. Reddit loves a good keyboard lynching. I treasure those downvotes. I sincerely hope it was just a bubble of rage-jerking people, and that’s not actually seen as acceptable or proportionate for a (very very naughty) kid.

It’s not just the US, I’ve heard stories about people bugging closed businesses semi-regularly here in Canada too. That said, I have noticed staff south of the border are surprised when I pick up products I knock over, which is interesting.

Probably true, but humour is pretty human-specific, so that’s a bit like saying we’re the most conventionally attractive by human standards.

My initial instinct is to agree with you, actually, but according to the rest of the thread that’s a bad idea, because most people aren’t as nice as us. I’ve never had the displeasure of that kind of job.

I’m impressed with how downvoted this is. RIP.

Not OP, but sure, I resent myself too.

I have trouble imagining a way I could be impressed with humanity in general, without actual willful ignorance. I’m not a dick about it, though. Kind of the opposite; it makes it a lot easier to refrain from judging any individual person.

Why yes, future person, I’ll fix the spelling.

I didn’t get an underline because it was capitalised, apparently.

Yeah, both can be true. There’s no way they’re close checking every comment on the instance, looking at the rate of mod actions versus traffic.

Head over to lemmy.ml and scroll to the mod log link at the bottom if you want to see for yourself. A lot of it is just slightly different views on the same socialist stuff. Like the time I said Dengism was just thinly-veiled capitalism, and got banned.

Interesting. Reddit does prompt you to give a removal message, or did at one time.

.ml tends to slap “rule 1” on everything, which says don’t be a bigot, even if that’s obviously not what the comment was about.

You guys are getting notifications? I just notice the lack of upvotes after a while posting into the void.

That’s barely an opinion, haha! That’s pretty much just what it is.

So, I actually learned about Guix via GNU Shepherd. It sounds like NixOS just uses systemd, which I don’t love. Not in a dramatic way, and I’m currently running systemd, but it does break the Unix philosophy.

A Haskell-based package manager would be pretty dope (seeing as that’s the gold standard for that sort of language). I wonder if someone’s working on it.
