Do people not remember back in the 2010s when bit.ly was the main link shortener used everywhere on the internet, and then Ghadafi, the then dictator of Libya, declared the site to be incompatible with Muslin decency norms because it was used for porn? And then all bit.ly links were just dead links?
How many times do we have to learn this lesson? Domain name hacks are fun but just not worth it. And in 2023, now we have all the new TLDs. This was a dumb decision
but the encryption keys are not stored on the 1password cloud systems
1password user data is encrypted, right? so even if a hack had allowed a bad actor access to user pw databases, it’s not like they would’ve just scored everyone’s passwords… right?
Zuckerberg owns %14 percent of the 2.5 billion shares of the trillion dollar company.
Yes, he could retire and live off a slice of the profit for the rest of his life. But that’s nothing. Anyone with a few tens of thousands of shares of a healthy company can do that. That massively understates the scope of his holdings.
Facebook could never turn a profit again. Revenue could fall off a cliff. And Zuck could borrow against the value of his assets to get paid handsomely for the rest of his life.
Heck he could shut down Meta and liquidate the company for pennies on the dollar and still have more money than most people see in 100 lifetimes.

It was a joke, but you appear not to have gotten it. Hence the wooosh sound.

Isn’t “geek” originally a circus actor term? Like the strongman or bearded lady. The geek is the guy who bites the heads off birds and other gross stuff.
Did French circuses not include an act like that? What do they call him?
Of course even if they do have that act and there is a French word for it, that doesn’t mean that it evolved the same way in French to have the same anti-intellectual meaning
The central claim would be more persuasive if the evidence weren’t just “I typed it into google translate”. That is a very limited way to see what words a language has
can you recommend a good instance with a no defederation policy?
Bro it was just a chance to improve your grammar. It was offered in good faith. If you don’t want it that’s of course your prerogative. But there’s no need for rudeness and hostility.
Of course in going that route you’ve demonstrated an aspect of lemmy that may be an answer to your question.
I would like to invite you to increase your mastery of the English language by learning about all the tenses. With a judicious choice, (I would recommend a pluperfect progressive), you can avoid writing confusing and self-contradictory things like:
Lemmy’s number of active users has been decreasing for the last month. […] the number has been on an upward trend for the last 6 months
I think those two phrases mean the same thing

Probably all mammals have a concept of “mother” even if it’s just a nonverbal instinct
you don’t need a uniform distribution. if the server distribution mirrors the population distribution (and why wouldn’t it?), that will still achieve the desired effect.
