The developers are openly communist

They are openly authoritarian “communists”, you don’t need to simp for China, Russia or NK to be a communist. But they do and they leverage the .ml Instance to do so. This is the point of contention for most (including myself) donating to them, and it was brought up in those threads numerous times. If they put in place a new admin team that was as unbiased and fair as possible, they would massively increase in donations. They won’t though because they know exactly what they’re doing with .ml to further their personal political ideology.

To paraphrase one user on one of those threads “Devs should do dev work and not mod work, admins/mods should do admin/mod work and not dev work”.

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support or defend acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.

But this is not the first system package replaced by a rust rewrite (on some distros) - something that has been working well for so long and is so fundamental for so many other softwares - is that wise?

Was there ever a problem wrt memory safety with sudo?

There’s been plenty of cases of a piece of software/library/whatever “working well” for years until one day OOPS there’s actually a gaping vulnerability in it. Hopefully, it’s a researcher that finds it first so it can be patched, but that doesn’t always happen. That’s how there’s a whole market for “0 days”

“Working well” != “Secure”

I pickup “downvote followers” from time to time because of what I say about .ml lol

But if we use AI to fight the AI, then what do we use to fight the AI we released to fight the AI‽

we take actions for our users/communities.

Makes sense, when you guys see more of an outcry from your users specifically and/or .ml starts leaking their crap over you’ll take more serious action

I have… different… views, but since I’m not a STW user, I’ll leave things here. Thank you for the responses!

May I ask what measures were deployed against .ml? I see your point when an instance in question just has some rouge mods/comms or some bad users. After all, any instance can pickup some of those and isn’t representative of the instance as a whole

However, in the case with .ml, it’s documented that it is the admins themselves who are direct participants in many cases in regards to the bans/censorship (Disingenuous) or have direct knowledge that their users are spreading propaganda/misinformation and choose to allow or even be in support of it. When the admins are involved in this manner, it can absolutely be seen as representative of the instance as a whole.

I see that startrek.website defederates from both grad and hex, which would I be safe in assuming was done for similar reasons?

The admin team actively defederates other instances, removes federated communities, and bans federated users for behavior that does not align with our core principles, even if those users/communities/instances have not interacted with our hosted communities in any way.

Core Principles:

• Respect - All users, regardless of race, gender, sex, or familiarity with the relevant content will be treated with respect and dignity.
• Authenticity - Disingenuousness, specifically in regards to misinformation, propaganda, spam, or any user operating in a way that could be regarded as not representative of their true intentions, is not allowed.
• Quality - StarTrek.website (and platformed communities) are only interested in growth and engagement insofar as it is in service to maintaining a sense of community.

I would like to ask then, why does startrek.website continue to be federated with lemmy.ml when that instance routinely violates the second core principle. Authoritarianism is wholly incompatible with Star Trek ideals

Lol

I don’t know why you keep posting the direct announcement link, which was already copy pasted here as the main post, as “relevant context”

Im gonna manually merge values to a query

Lol frfr, I tried to learn Guitar once so I know EXACTLY what he was going through with his fingers, he should have done like a Recorder or Piano or something LMAO

Real talk, those are some of the best friendships

Well on Reddit the answer was straightforward and easy, needing to establish karma on an account to make it seem legit and organic and then either sell it or start using it for the original malicious purposes

But here on Lemmy? I have absolutely no idea

Yea this was a crosspost and also just a meme, but C# is my fav

And really cross-platform has come a LONG way…just as long as you don’t need UI on Linux lolol

Isn’t bcache the one made by the solo dev who was causing all that drama trying to merge a bunch of crap during a freeze last year?

If so that explains quite a bit lmao

I’ll have to keep an eye out on my current rewatch, I’m on S5 so far

Where’s the Doctors mobile emitter‽‽

Agreed, the other choice would have resulted in the loss of two individuals with very important individual functions that couldn’t realistically be compressed down to one person when they were stranded

The only other option that they could have done was some sort of transporter cloning shenanigans, cloning Tuvix and then separating the “original”. But that comes with a whole separate set of ethical implications on its own

Not feature complete, needs to be tied with a RNG to determine when TARIFF ON and TARIFF OFF

Muskrat is so thinly skinned, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was monitoring for various domains like this ready to bid up to like a million or some shit LMAO
