this was never the creepy van. hippy vans often looked like that. (but maybe creepy refers to the guy here idk)

there should be something in the lemmy admin interface that reminds ppl to have a co-admin or give someone who they know admin accounts, to keep their legacy alive when they go missing

stick it to the man? 🤭

those cables are well managed

did 4chan leak trolls again? shoo. back under your bridge.

that depends on what you think is honest. maybe the ppl think repeating this discussion again is boring and they dislike it. don’t take it personally. you are not your content.

btw mastodon and bluesky don’t have downvotes. i think ppl who are here instead on those, decided this way is better. i for one left mastodon in favor of lemmy.

“only upvotes” don’t help as much, because you get a gap where ppl don’t like it. you can only use ppl who like it to sort, which may be much less than ppl who dislike it.

also, once downvoted from many ppl, fewer ppl see the content and it gets less downvotes.

actually downvotes give less “power to aasholes”, because otherwise ppl can post their evil shit like on xitter and they and the algorithm assume silence=agreement, even though agreeing takes only one tap while disagreeing requires writing a comment. this emboldens the “assholes”. they get little to no feedback ppl don’t like it. on top of it, there are ways/algos to sort by number of comments. so if ppl actually dislike it so much to write a comment, it pushes the bad post up on these rankings, shoving the horrible stuff in even more ppls faces.

don’t forget that downvotes mostly help with sorting. they don’t mean “this is wrong”. they mean the reader didn’t like it and it should be sorted further down or even start collapsed. it can just be a highly unpopular or disgusting truth ppl want to swipe under the rug. it can also be totally irrelevant or link/quote sites ppl don’t like and want to reduce traffic to or be forgotten (reddit, xitter, fb come to mind)

it’s just a quick feedback that can help the community.

that’s true, but ppl sometimes have reasons to focus on one stock, for example, if they need the voting rights to influence the company, if they have insider info, or take a managing position at the company to show they’re comitted to it.

multiple have, but mostly for decoration. some ppl just like the romanticized dream of knights and princesses. it’s weird, but at least the tourists have fun.

that’s completely irrelevant, because in internet and real life there are nutjobs everywhere. even tho the definition of nutjob might slightly differ for everyone, the platforms allow users to regulate the amount of nutjobs they meet individually, for example by subscribing communities with less of them and/or blocking/filtering.

also, the voting system helps a lot, so ppl get easy feedback about their content and it helps with sorting, too.

ok

AFAIK multiple ppl died stowing away in the wheel compartment. So yeah, that’s not impossible.

Also, chartering or piloting your own small plane should bypass that, often.

they fly a lot internally, also. sadly, they’re not exactly known for good railway.

yes, because you can kill a hundred thousand gestapo officers and all it does is get your strongest fighters killed, but start at the nazi leadership and you’re done in a week.

if you want to show those in power, why do you attack the goon meatwaves they specifically created to wear you out?
