10 is not a statistically significant sample size

If you haven’t asked them, I bet that organization would have some recommendations for your patio plight.

I’m glad it has been resolved. Hopefully there aren’t any lingering laws like that in other states.

The article explains every aspect of this.

Chinese for less than $100? You should be able to get basically any hand grinder for less than that. Plus if you’re willing to do a little restoration, I see tons of them at antique stores in the US for like $20.

Woo! Thanks for all the hard work

Yeah,I believe this info, but why these names in particular? And how does he have access to this info in particular to reveal?

Yeah that’s definitely an issue. Realistically the only solution there is just to migrate such a community to a new home (fedi serves this need well). But admittedly one of the great boons of discord was discoverability, and that will be lost elsewhere without intervention.

A popular alternative only arises if you migrate to it before it’s popular. There are multiple platforms already available that resemble discord already

Note my final comment. I understand the reality.

The general comment and title is simply untrue. They will require verification in cases of known adult or censored content, and in NSFW channels and servers. “Regular” content and spaces are untouched.

That said, I give it 6-10 months before it’s required for all users regardless of content access.

Those are pasties

Re: region-and-country-specific communities. Is it possible to merge communities, retaining the post histories of each under one bigger umbrella? If the users/mods of a particular community are for it, I think that is preferable to migration.

This is difficult for more “local” communities (though I’m not sure many exist here currently).

Bookwyrm is cool, it just needs more attention and interaction. It would be cool if it could expand into other forms of media (games, movies) like NeoDB, which again feels like posting into the void.

Unless I’m mistaken this title is generated to match the title at the link. Are you saying the mods should update titles to accurately reflect the content of the articles posted?

I appreciate this perspective, thank you for detailing your thoughts. I will have to do some thinking on this one.

Very cool, thank you for the lesson

Tell me more about this underground farmer’s market? I haven’t heard of this concept. I’m working on reviving the community garden in my area, and unfortunately crop-sharing farms have all fallen apart near me.

Very fair, and to be clear I’m not arguing that perfect be the enemy of good enough here.

Interesting considerations in your hypotheticals, I’m sure it depends on your perspective

I see how this comes across as me arguing “if you can’t beat capitalism, it’s not worth trying.” But I’m really just saying do both. Help your unhoused, and also try to do so in a way that does not contribute to capitalism.

You should really relax though, this personal attack is not very solarpunk of you.
