Trump Sends Traditional Unhinged Late-Night Thanksgiving Message
  • It's easier to make people feel angry than to feel angry. And making people feel strongly about anything is a great way to get them engaged with you. I'm sure there's a name for wanting to feel strong feelings. Maybe it's just brain chemistry. But Republicans and other malicious actors exploit that.

  • Expanding Synology
  • Literally on the product page, first result when I googled the model number:

    DS1821+ comes equipped with 8 bays and can scale up to 18 bays with 2 DX517 expansion units as your data needs grow.

    Honest question: did you do any investigation on your own, or post here first?

  • www.dw.com Fact check: Amsterdam video doesn't show attack on Israelis – DW – 11/12/2024

    Violence broke out following the recent Europa League match between Ajax Amsterdam and Maccabi Tel Aviv. A video showing the riots was misrepresented by many media outlets. DW takes a closer look.

    This post crashes Boost when you see it in the post list

    Link to post: https://lemmy.world/post/19274834

    If you tap that link in Boost it'll probably crash, so don't do it unless you're okay with that.

    I'm guessing the problem is that the post URL is a magnet link.

    Edit: oh yeah, to work around, you'll have to open it in a browser and hide it.

    Mods of !news are now banning people for criticizing the MBFC bot?

    I got banned earlier today with the message "rule 1", no other information about why, or which comment broke the rule. As far as I can tell it was this one, which just says "We want the bot gone. That’s it. It’s really that simple."

    So I checked the modlog for other bans, and @aniki@lemmings.world was banned today as well, also just for "rule 1", probably either for the comment saying "a stupid bot writing useless bullshit" or "This is what you call "Not listening to criticism."", neither of which are an attack on any person.

    (Also earlier today @MindTraveller@lemmy.ca was banned with the message "fuck off", which I'm pretty sure is not a reason to ban someone from a major community, but doesn't appear to be related to the MBFC bot.)

    One more today, @stormesp@lemm.ee was banned, again just "rule 1", last comment being this one, again not an attack on any person.

    So what's the deal here? I couldn't find any rules for mods on lemmy.world with a brief poke around, but are we letting mods run major communities like little fiefdoms, banning people for criticism?
