That’s too bad, that’s a hard line for me, it has to have the option of federation.

Also, so it’s a direct server, so it is centralized, there’s nothing decentralized about it

Decentralized (no abuse of power and doesn’t have a single point of failure)

There is a direct server though, is it federated? The readme doesn’t say it’s federated at all

I’m sure the community will rally together to save their community against the invaders.

Oh, you mean helping each other and being empathetic are liberal traits, and they only value looking after themselves even when their community depends on cooperation? Well, I’m sure they can each farm their own food.

I understood that reference!

I’ve heard positive things about Dito, if I was doing it over again I think I’d start there

This post says a lot about how users interact with the web now. 15-20 years ago the question would have been “how do I change the feed ordering”. Now it’s “this sucks, it’s so bad”.

Welcome to what we used to have in the old internet friend, you have choice again. You can choose how you want to experience Lemmy, there is no one way being dictated to you.

It was so creepy! Completely lost the plot, and the whole purpose of the movie too, so hated it for many reasons.

Can confirm, I host Matrix (homeserver synapse) and Element. Voice is a pain to get set up but I hear there are other matrix services which will do this for you easier. It’s a process though. You can get text chat up in a day, voice is going to be a bit after that, a lot of tinkering.

nah don’t regret, we’re all good, I should have been less flippant too.

After all of this, I am going to watch it. As a rule anything that’s minimized or shamed or generally “they” don’t want me to watch usually means I should go watch it. Although, as someone who is fully aware of what is happening right now, opening me up to that much anxiety makes me worry too, and I won’t lie after having several family dinners like that clip, I’m nervous… but I’ll trust you.

While I admit my first comment was a bit flippant, I was annoyed at the commenter’s… I’ll say it… conceited remarks. That they don’t need such paltry details see a film, that a mere wisp of a note of intrigue is enough, and that I, a lowly commoner, am wrong for even thinking such things as plot, or setting, or characters.

Honestly your comment below: “In this gripping thriller…”, is what I think the post needed to show what the movie was about. Posting the clip is probably very meaningful if you’ve seen the movie, but for me who is deciding if I should see it, I have no context of what it is about. I shouldn’t have been flippant in my comment, my intention was more “if people are scrolling through and see this for a split second, we won’t know what the movie is about”, slightly encouraging OP to add some context - but it was the wrong way to do that.

Sorry, yeah I must be just downright nuts looking for the underlying story, the background, or literally anything about what might be happening. Usually I do watch films for vague ideas and concepts, I don’t know what I was doing asking about a well-crafted story which conveys those ideas and concepts.

I got that, is that the plot? What’s the plot? You know, the overarching story. Moms mad, daughter is pregnant, it’s a tense scene but I have no idea what the movie is about.

From both the video and your description I have absolutely no idea what this movie is about

I’ve noticed even with parents to children now there is no hope for them. I’m someone who grew up in poverty, and I expect nothing from my parents at all (they have nothing). However, even affluent parents are leaving less to their kids now. Which, I’m actually okay with individually (I worked hard, I’m not going to give you a free ride and spoil you).

What makes me sad is when I see parents holding inheritance as ransom over their children. If you want to live a different life than they approve? Inheritance revoked. You want a different major than they approve of, or don’t have the same political views? No inheritance. Only had 1 grandchild instead of 3? No inheritance.

That’s such selfish weird behavior in my book. It’s not “I earned this, I want to use it for my retirement”, it’s not “I don’t want to spoil you” or to give it to charity, so I don’t want to give that impression. It’s the “I want to dangle the ladder in front of you before pulling it up”. I don’t know if I’m describing my feelings well but it bothers me a lot, and I think it’s 1000% selfish

Even if he is, it is not mind occupying work out there. I grew up in farm country. He had a radio on, how much you want to bet it was tuned to the local conservative talk radio constantly?

They’ve been spamming this a few times now, fully respect your decision, but I know I commented on this exact post about 2 weeks ago the same as everyone else here, just FYI if you didn’t know they’ve been repeating it. (Maybe it was an alt acct, not sure, but I know I said the same thing before)

Yeah we’re in a thread with Joss Whedon, Cosby, and Elon. I know I’ve lost patience with people, I don’t think we need to go and lump something as small as this in with those assholes.

Honestly liked the Cosby show, and even his standup. Was very disappointed when I heard.

Same, I thought he was out to try and save the world from climate change. For me the illusion shattered when he tried to kill California HSR because he would make less in cars. It was never about the environment, it was about being “cool” and then cornering the market.

What a shit place. “If you don’t own a car, you aren’t welcome here”.

Great, I’ll take my income and tax revenue somewhere else. Stupid backwards things like this are why I don’t want to move to most cities even if there’s a great job there.

A city should look at a “problem” like this and be saying “how can we ensure they do this safely” instead of going right to banning

Feel for him. Not really. But dude got wrapped up in hype of hating the people he hates, didn’t even realize he was included in exactly who he was cheering for hatred to come to.
