I would really appreciate it if you could drop the attitude with me. In all the comments I read I didn’t once see this addressed so I’m not ignoring a damn thing. There will probably be other people commenting something similar who won’t even bother to read other comments first. It’s how people operate. If you can’t keep yourself from getting hostile towards me and other people as an admin maybe it’s time to stop responding to people tonight.
i’ll be completely honest: i don’t know where some of you are earning the confidence to speak more on what this instance do in the future than us, the actual admins who decide what will be done in the future.
I’m not speaking on what the instance is going to do. I gave my opinion on where I could see it going based on this action. That’s why I said this is a slippery slope. The more instances that get blocked will cause people to sign up on other ones thus causing the same issue to happen but from a different instance. The only reasonable decision at that point would be to defederate from everything.
Again this is just my opinion and thoughts on the matter. The defensive and slightly hostile tone back reminding me I’m not an admin and therefore shouldn’t speak about what I thought might happen wasn’t really appreciated. This is supposed to be a place about open dialogue correct?
I see this being a very slippery slope. Part of the nice thing about the fediverse is being able to interact with other communities on other instances. I can easily see Beehaw starting to defederate with more and more instances thereby severely limiting the amount of communities that are accessible. I see the trigger being pulled to defederate from every other instance just to stop any unwanted things from happening.
There have been rumors of this for years. If it’s happening it better be live action.
I would probably be more upset if I hadn’t been permanently banned for saying 2 people harassing a disabled person in a video should be found out and held accountable.
Just play it as is first time through. I wish I could go back and replay it for the first time again. I’ve dumped so many hours into this game. My biggest suggestions are just run around and have fun. Talk to everyone, explore everywhere. Don’t fast travel! Travel by foot everywhere, the things you’ll run into and random people you’ll meet are part of what makes the game so rich. Save often. You never know when you might have to go back and reload your game in the case of a needed NPC getting killed. Enjoy yourself!
Those chickens are coming home to roost.
Cover things with post-its
So somehow we need the world to give up their apple and and android phones. I don’t see that happening LOL. It’s awesome to know it’s a possibility though.
Well it’s good to know there is some awareness about the issue that hopefully will be corrected.
I understand what you are saying but it’s is inescapable I feel if we want to continue to use these personal assistant devices. Hey Google and Siri are the same. They all have to be constantly listening in order to be able to pickup when we are talking to them. The level of interconnectability we want as a society and personal recommendations when using those systems inherently come with a need to be tracked both physically and on the internet. Just by agreeing to use an app like find my phone you agree to be tracked by having location services turned on. We all signed away our privacy a long time ago willingly
With the echo sure. But in that regard what isn’t spying on us? Our phones are always listening lol. As far as the cameras though they are on their own self contained system. Saved footage as far as I know doesn’t even get uploaded to any of their servers. It’s all just saved to your personal hub on an SD card.
Honestly if you really think about it pizza isn’t that bad for you. So long as you keep the toppings and cheese to a minimum. It’s all the processed crap you get at places like dominos that makes it so bad
I think emojis have a time and place. Not overly used but they’re ok sometimes
I really appreciate you writing this. I also think it’s important for people to try and remember 2 things when talking to people on the internet that can greatly contribute to better communication.
The first being that not everyone is always great at explaining or saying what they are thinking or will explain themselves in a way that makes sense to them but comes across differently to others. If this happens ask for clarification, give someone a chance to further explain what they meant or are trying to say.
Second and probably more importantly these are just words on a screen and any tone that you think is coming across is being put there by your brain because that’s the way you’re reading it and probably not the way it was intended. I’m sure we’ve all gotten upset over a text someone sent because we read it a certain way only to find out after sending back an angry reply and then later talking to them the person sending it didn’t mean it in the way we took it and we were rude back for no reason.
Look into Amazon blink. It’s what I use.
That looks delicious
Off the top of my head communities like
r/3rprinting r/instantpot r/todayilearned r/therewasanattempt r/space r/changemyview r/unpopularopinion
So they don’t use umbrellas or build stairs? I feel cheated! Dumb lemmings.
That’s going to happen though. Most people are going to comment before reading through the comments. If they read through them at all. As I said to the other admin, if it’s not possible to not be hostile in their response maybe it’s time to stop responding for a while.
And yes I did. Even more so after the second response that still had more attitude towards me without a hint of an apology. It’s hard to feel this is an open dialogue space when other admins aren’t willing to stop themselves or apologize when they are doing one of the main things this instance is trying to not have happen.
