  • Seriously. Most everybody (subconsciously or not) feels too pressured nowadays, and for a significant portion of the population (primarily conservatives, it seems to me) that comes out in the form of hypocritically judging others ever more harshly for whatever excuse they can find (no matter how irrational). Bullies and their sycophants gonna do what they do even more in order to make themselves feel “superior.” It’s just their way of coping with the same troubles everyone is having, except they will never admit the truth of that for fear of being seen as “weak.” Of course, this modus operandi was instilled in them from childhood, so they’ve long since forgotten why they do it. Not do they care, because that would require them to be truthful which would make them “vulnerable,” and they just can’t have that.



  • Not even gonna bother reading - why should I care? They let their mods run rampant, the admins help them & don’t GAF about anything but keeping the free labor mods doing whatever the fuck they want to users, no matter how unfair or nonsensical it is. The site is shit. If Lemmy can’t catch on, then I sure AF hope the Digg reboot due any day now buries their asses. All Digg has to do is have moderators actually moderate (I know - it’s radical to suggest the titles match the actions), have admin rules and staff that are actually fair to all involved, and enforce fair and progressive banning steps - it shouldn’t be possible to jump straight to permanent bans, and there should be a working, fair, and permissive appeal process. If they manage that, then I’m sure they’ll take a good chunk of Reddit’s base.

    Fuck spez.




  • Some of these seem like they could be blatant gifts to developers (depending upon the specifics), and potentially likely to be regretted in the long run. I haven’t the time to parse the legalese, but the ones limiting construction defect litigation, and fees associated with infrastructure projects directly linked to proposed developments seem like potentially bad ideas. The former could also be problematic when combined with allowing single stair(case) residential buildings. There are also some other slightly iffy things, but those are the ones that immediately pinged my “danger” radar. Again, the devil may be in the details - which I admittedly haven’t the patience to read through right now.
