Meh. They were deeply toxic.

Countersue with a class-action lawsuit, where the damaged class is the Citizens of the United States of America and the world.

I think unless you are an old timer from when things like gonewild were brand new, and onlyfans wasn't a thing, it might be hard to understand lemmy.

Lemmy is what Reddit was like when Reddit was brand new. There just aren't many users and the ones that are here are here for the love of the game. If you don't genuinely enjoy what you are doing, you aren't going to get the kind of engagement you might expect from Reddit. We are just a small community at the edge of the internet.

And hurry up! If I don't get these tapes back to blockbuster before 5PM I have to pay for another night and I really don't feel like watching Die Hard again..

Drones are still relatively cheap. You can still get your hands on a 3d printer.

Something to consider about the fediverse is the federation aspect of it; consider re framing your starting position.

Basically, if you make the project "you" hosting "this one" fediverse instance, that instance can be taken down, hacked, its moderation team gets bored, etc..

However if you making the project about "creating access to self-hosting" fediverse instances, well now you have something more robust that at least in a hypothetical scenario, could survive the internet being cut off from the outside, because at least instances within the network can still federate.

Something that is self-hosted which could support with this is codeberg. You could set up some repo's to sync with the main lemmy/ piefed/ whatever you want, then you get your community to create several federated instances as automatic backups to one another.

Regardless, your personal and operational security should be your highest priority. But if you make the priority getting the tools out, instead of hosting one particular instance, thats much harder to stop.

The current fan-fiction is that they're still alive and occasionally hop in and upvote.

Thats about 10 months after their last post/ comment.

I think she's like Vance. Just not an icecubes chance in hell of surviving a primary.

Okay this one is hilarious

Then don't eat it.

Not necessarily. I knew an extremely attractive young woman in her 20s who nicknamed herself the "crypt-creeper", because well.. that what she liked.

No reason to marsh others mellow.

No matter how old you get, 20 year olds stay the same age.

I think the technical term is grave robbing, as opposed to cradle robbing.

So is the fisherman and the cook.

Me and Stampy are riding off into the sunset.

Those examples are both the same side
