The problem isn’t in the system, but in your expectations.
You’re starting with a wrong assumption that things publicly available on the internet can simply be deleted. That’s not how any of this works.
Maybe that’s our fault. Maybe we weren’t clear enough back when you started using the internets. But It’s true, deleting things online is very difficult. You shouldn’t ever expect it to be simple or easy.
uh…
That seems insane.
I’m betting on either awesome future classic, or notoriously terrible.
Not a chance it’ll be anything between.
Sure, if you’re torrenting government censored media to distribute to others living under an oppressive regime.
Are you torrenting government censored media to distribute to others living under an oppressive regime?
Fuck off!
If it’s not for you, you’re free to ignore it.
Stop criticizing shit before it even exists.
I can understand why.
But what could be a bigger “Fuck You”, than using the symbol they stole, to represent everything they hate?
The pride movement should adopt the Swastika and Nazi flag.
Symbols are given meaning and power by those who use them.
One didn’t allow down votes. Seemed like a good idea. I rarely down vote. But in practice, when I do it’s for a reason. And I want the option.
Another went down for roughly a week. So that didn’t work out.
Which is one reason I embraced Communick; a paid instance. Been here since.
That’s a good point. May be true.
Not necessarily. That’s just what I did.
The point is, they aren’t making a permanent decision. They can switch or move at any time for any reason.
The idea that one must commit, is the problem. At first, I signed up for 3 or 4 servers. It needs to be pointed out that no commitment is necessary.
That says more about you than the movie.
Yes!
One person, yes. The rest were never into them very much anyway.
I’m not going to jump on the MCU hate wagon. Some of them have been great, others less so. But none have been actually bad movies. There’s nothing wrong with making fun and forgettable entertainment.
Is this a joke?
It was a $300M movie with a marketing campaign to match. It was unavoidable for nearly two months.
Disney+ now has 124.6 million subs.
So they lost a fraction of a percent, and probably doesn’t matter really. Ok
It’s the open source version of Adobe Lightroom.
We aren’t talking about They/Them vs she/her.
This is about They/Them vs they/them.
I can see there might be an argument for people to capitalize all pronouns.
Doing it only for 1st and 2nd person pronouns might be my preference. I can see it accentuating a dialog happening between the reader and writer.
But asking everyone to break a grammatical convention, specifically only for you; Giving no justification other than “I like it”, seems insufficient.
If I were to tell you to use all caps when referring to ME, would that be reasonable?
What about all lower case, even when starting a sentence?
No. If you want everyone to change a standard grammatical convention specifically for you alone; One that’s been in place since the invention of the printing press (that’s when we started to capitalize “I”); You need to give more reason than you would for your favorite color.
Of course you and I both, can capitalize any word, however WE Want, for our Own empahAses.
That never uses or explains the use of “My”.
It’s actually not even explaining anything I imagined. It’s explaining, that some people want others to capitalize the pronouns used to refer to them specifically. I was thinking of a grammatical choice to always or never capitalize pronouns uniformly. But changing grammar rules on the whims of the person being written about, seems exceptionally odd. The closest I ever heard of to that, is in the spelling someone’s name.
In reality it doesn’t explain anything other than to say, some people want it that way. It never goes into actually explaining the logic of that desire. It merely tries to shame people for not doing it if requested.
What goal post? There is no actual, technical, difference, between archive and active. As soon as a post is made, it’s old, and part of the accessible archive of past posts and accounts.
A basic reality from the beginning of the internet, is that you once you make something publicly available, it’s out there. You can’t really ever take it back. It’s just a fundamental principal of how the internet works. A lot of people seem to forget that.
