This is why we should use things like GPL.

We should get ahead of the curve by making Markcoin then. Let’s do halfsies on an ICO.

Yeah, in the book of Revelation in the Bible as a sign of the end times followers of Satan will have a visible mark on them. Many evangelical Christian conspiracy theorists believe that in a literal sense. Paired with many conservatives also not wanting the government to be able to track them, a national ID system (as opposed to state IDs) has never really gain traction.

Some fundamentalist Christian groups, as well as various Christian writers in other traditions, interpret the mark as a requirement for all commerce to mean that the mark might actually be an object in the right hand or forehead with the function of a credit card, such as RFID microchip implants.[73] Some of these groups believe the implantation of chips may be the imprinting of the mark of the beast, prophesied to be a requirement for all trade and a precursor to God’s wrath.[74][75] Similar objections were raised about barcodes upon their introduction.[76]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, some groups associated COVID-19 vaccines and mask wearing with the mark of the beast, or that it was a microchip in the vaccine.[77] Some religious leaders spoke out against this as a misinterpretation of Revelation 13:16-18.[78] Medical institutions such as Hennepin County Medical Center noted this in their fact sheets about the vaccine.[79] A similar version was spread by Marjorie Taylor Greene, who referred to vaccine passports as being the mark of the beast.[80]

The same group that pushes for voter ID laws refuses to implement a national ID system because they’re afraid of the mark of the beast.

That joke is NSFW, please present facial verification and ID now or you will be banned and reported to the authorities!

One of my Discord friends has a stalker and can’t get anything but automated messages.

Guilded went to Roblox-only in 2025. I’d never heard of it until someone else mentioned it as an alternative.

☝️🤓 Discord said they’re going to delete the data!

Too late! That and requiring TPM and SecureBoot made me switch. I love it.

Oh you KNOW I had to be the robot.

Congratulations on achieving advertising!

I bring FRS radios (normal ol’ walkie talkies) to the local Renaissance festival which has awful to no cell reception. It works great.

But yeah the barrier to even getting a technician license is too high. You get people that get excited and wanna do stuff and then they’re told they can’t. So things like meshtastic where they actually can do radio related things without a license are great.

When I think of pagers I think of receiving only, not sending. Meshtastic devices can typically do both.

Okay? But why? StackOverflow’s moderation is inadequate as well.

It’s viable, StackExchange as a company is just shit. See: then never listening to meta, listening to random Twitter users more, and defaming their volunteer moderators.

Nobody here is suggesting for you to use Yahoo Answers.

Like I said, I’m not talking about specific sites, I’m talking about moderation style.

My questions weren’t homework problems with 500 duplicates. Maybe that type of shit being the most common in the vote to close queue is why fuckfacerubberstamper can’t be bothered to actually think about what they’re closing as dupes.

Like Lemmy? The site we’re all using?

But no my point wasn’t about a specific site, it’s about the moderation approach. Do you really think there’s no middle ground in approach to moderation between Yahoo Answers and StackOverflow?

You don’t think there’s any middle ground between the two? None whatsoever?
