Why wouldn't I? It's like saying I won't drink tap water because that water was once someone's pee.
Huh? Explain for a non native speaker?
I assure you, there would not be a single atom of that human left in the soup.
Let's assume dumping half the soup every day for 2000 years. That's 2000*365 = 730,000 times you're halving the soup. Assume a human that weighs 70 kg. After the 2000 years, there'd be 70 / 2^730,000 kg left. That's 0.000... insert roughly 220,000 zeros ...0009 kg. I.e. 0, for all intents and purposes. There'd be nothing from that person left in the pot.
Downvoted for popular opinion.
Yea this has really big astroturfing vibes.
The fediverse is not really about avoiding censorship as it is about providing choice. That means the choice to listen to who you want to listen to (i.e. what servers to (de)federate from/to), the choice to post whatever you want (but you might get banned from your own instance or any other instance, that's their prerogative), the choice of administrators and moderators (i.e. which instance you sign up to and what communities you participate in).
All of that stuff doesn't really have to do with censorship directly, but it has implications for censorship. The fediverse is not built primarily to avoid censorship though, and in some cases it is made to make "censorship" (moderation) easier, rather than harder.
Wow, a legitimate use case for shorts.
Damn moderators banning fog!!1!
Here I was thinking this was some rant about the moderators of this comm lol
It's okay, apology accepted.
apparently I was flagged as a bot at one point
You don't get "flagged" as a bot, it is a user setting in your preferences. You should fix it so that you are not marked as a bot.
What do all you guys use these setups for?
Even if you could, Linus Torvalds is not a fan of the v3 license.
Why not?
The Free Software Foundation explicitly forbade tivoization in version 3 of the GNU General Public License. However, although version 3 has been adopted by many software projects, the authors of the Linux kernel have notably declined to move from version 2 to version 3.
How come Linux doesn't use GPL v3?
I wouldn't say it's truly decentralised in its current state.
Such a gem of a movie
Should the government collect taxes on the buoyant times but then refund them during market downturns? That would be a nightmare. No government wants to be on the hook for refunds during a downturn.
AFAIK Danish tax on stock gains/losses works like this. Stock gains are heavily taxed while stock losses give you a tax rebate.
That would only fix the community for your own instance (and your instance would be out of sync with other instances). This is not a viable solution.
It's funny how it used to be expensive. In Danish we have a saying to say someone is poor if "they can't even afford salt for their egg", as if an egg is cheaper than salt. Because it actually used to be that way.
Honestly I would consider that a bit weird. At the very least, old-fashioned. If you like Java, it makes me think you haven't tried a better more modern language to compare it with.
