Article says the ceasefire was originally planned for 4 days, so they made the hunger strike coincide with the end of the ceasefire. But then the ceasefire was extended. But they went ahead with hunger strike anyway? Ok…

Is this news current? Isn’t the conflict in like day 3 of ceasefire? Are they still on hunger strike?

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.

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

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.

Probably all mammals have a concept of “mother” even if it’s just a nonverbal instinct

Lemmy is communities. Like Reddit. You can curate a list of communities you subscribe to.

Mastodon is microblogging. Like Twitter. You can curate a list of bloggers you subscribe to.

Because they are decentralized, you can include off-server sources in your subscription list, for both your mastodon account and your lemmy account. Because mastodon and lemmy use same activitypub protocol, you can include lemmy communities in your curate mastodon list of subscribed sources. Or a mastodon microblogger in your curated lemmy feed. Also you can reply using your existing account to a post in that feed, including from the other service.

I’m not following. You’d be ok with risking beheading to overthrow a monarch. But you won’t overthrow a corporate CEO?

You think corporations don’t exist under monarchy?

I don’t want the fediverse to be fragmented and Balkanized. Federate with everyone unless it’s a kiddy porn ring.

Give threads a chance. You can revisit if it turns out problematic
