Apparently nothing, my fault for commenting and not clicking through links and assuming it was referencing current Argentinian changes.

How has this held up in the current Argentinian landscape, if I could ask? Are they still going along the same path with regards to worker ownership or has that changed since the early 00s?

Javier Milei and his massive govt cuts. It’s also losing a lot of nuance in Argentina’s situation vs the US, so even before direct comparisons start, issues arise. But the more well-aware GOP people I know are decently big fans of his tactics of large govt cuts to reduce overall spending.

They love to use him as an example of govt cuts to services to “stabilize” spending, but will also ignore the mechanisms by which people are pulling themselves out of poverty.

Ooo, let’s hear this, I’m ready to argue lmao. Heresy of the highest order

Boxer briefs. Best of all worlds.

Literally wearing some rn, also a fan, they suck to work out in tho, not been a fan of that. Just odd ranges of motion don’t seem to fit with the fit lol

Oh for sure. There is a definite downside to the leagues that’s becoming increasingly hard to ignore. I live in a large college town, so even outside of the team, it ends up being a community event and it’s nice to have all your friends get together, even if for a superficial reason. Probably 80% of my Reddit use was sports subs and discussions not really for the sport, but because I liked the community aspect of it. I’d like to see that again here, so I’ll keep posting away lol

Sports is surprising to me that it hasn’t gotten bigger here. I get that the tech crowd isn’t classically overlapping the sports crowd, but I feel like tech has gotten so mainstream anymore that it’s more sports people into tech than tech people into sports. A lot of the subs and instances are really lacking too, not to comment on the people posting there and doing what they can. It’s a tough landscape right now

Pepperoni rolls from West Virginia, and it’s not even close. Simple and easy to make, last unrefrigerated, and I can eat about 40 of em if I’m not careful.

This is what I’ve been sitting on for the last few days. He is trying to push us to the point that our only ally left could be Russia, by economically and politically alienating our current allies. If/when it got to that point, we’d take whatever we could get. Without us, NATO in it’s current form also loses a ton of power, further making the return of the Soviet Union possible.

And yet this is like…some wild theory that can’t be conceived. He’s been saying for years he wants to reunify.

Well actually looks like it’s one of the mods posting it, so that’s not likely to change I guess. I’d say to start your own similar community and mod it how you see fit. If that’s how they want to run it, there isn’t anything you can do about it. If the community doesn’t care about moderating content to that degree, what can you do besides demand they change to your image of what it should be?

Did you report it?

I mean, if no one is reporting it, they likely aren’t sitting around checking posts every 15 min. Ones that stay up may just be missed; they aren’t notified about any posts through Lemmy simply by being a mod, so unless they see the post themselves, it may just get missed. I missed a post on a sub I mod for 2 weeks; not that it didn’t fit the community, it just didn’t come up in the feed and I don’t always go manually check the sub feed.

Not that deep or dire

Weirdly, he isn’t worried about the Americans smuggling it in or manufacturing it here. It’s just those pesky other races. American Fentanyl is good for you; I hear RFK is recommending it over the Measles vaccine.

I wonder if you could do it like the aggregation apps that used to exist for like…FB, Twitter, Instagram, where you can access/post from multiple accounts. My big thing is I hate having a dozen apps that do the same thing; so having an aggregator app is nice. For people who want the singular account, you could see both Bsky and Mastodon. For people like yourself, you could log in to both accounts and have separate feeds, just homed on the same app. And I imagine it’d be nicer, because Activity Pub would be the base, and it could display different UIs based on what information is being pulled, so it isn’t just like a Twitter feed on FB. You could get the Lemmy view on Lemmy, Twitter view on Bsky/Mastodon, Instagram on PixelFed, etc.

I’m the only person who’s ever posted, so it isn’t fully fleshed out yet lol. But in general, it’s just “does this add to the community?”. If it does, it’ll stay. If it doesn’t, it won’t. The whole “issue” is lack of engagement/content right now. I’m largely the only one posting in two communities, so I’ll take anything right now, even if it’s self-promotion. Just don’t post every single day.
