7 separate posts to the community within an hour of each other, shit posting or not that's spammy/ rep farming behavior and deserves some kind of mod action. Banned doesn't necessarily mean it's a perm ban.

Which is literally why lemmy is the only possible replacement. It's the only path for users to choose not an evil corporation. Hypothetically reddit could operate an instance, and we could all give them the finger and block/defederate from them. We have to foster the growth of niche hobby, community, and activity boards though. It can't all be left leaning politics and meme shit posting. We need to encourage those who share expertise to come contribute. That lemmy is the defacto aggregate forum. It is the only form factor corporate ownership can't swallow up.

The most maddening behavior with alt tab. Let's say I have 4 windows open on a single desktop split on a single monitor. [A|B] and [C|D]. C and D become best buddies, if I alt tab from A to D to reference something, A loses focus and I get both C and D visible. It becomes impossible to look at A and D together. Had no issues with sway/Wayland/nvidia. Nor with xfce but trying to let x be dead. Don't have the issue with gnome/Wayland on Intel chips.

Non deterministic alt tabbing with arbitrary "buddy windows" is the most frustrating desktop experience imaginable. It's less bad without nvidia in the mix but still seen it happen with Intel chips as well. Moved back to sway for tiling goodness and my sanity is restored.

This is nothing new it's just faster. The very same lack of guardrails would allow a new, inexperienced employee, or a disgruntled employee, do the very same damage. AI just speed runs everything. If your AI can nuke prod accidentally, you failed to have the appropriate guardrails in place plain and simple. It is the same failure as before. Every time this happens, it is someone operating wildly out of their depth and why product people can't just vibe. Now more than ever, experienced engineers are essential.

11y account, 108k karma. Repetitively banned by their ai moderation. The latest, like many, overturned by a human, the content restored, and it immediately received a community award. But their ban automation fanned out and banned all my accounts. Because I was banned. Which was overturned. I'm banned for being banned by an ai, despite that ai being overruled. They will not respond to my appeal.

So anyways now I'm getting oriented on lemmy and will contribute here. Reddit can suck it. Their only value was human contribution from the community and they're working hard to snuff that out.

Edit: s/reward/award

He was a terrible person and it is fitting to celebrate that he is no longer alive to impose his views through policy. Not celebrating his death, just the act of him no longer living. Him dying, sad for his family. Him not being alive, good for the nation. It's a bad rule, do better.

Blast it down with a can of engine degreaser and let it fully dry. You should be able to hear the faintest rattle in the links if you shake it. Lay it out with the plates on end, and apply a drop of lube to each roller, flip it over and another drop to each roller. Move the chain around to work the lube into where it needs to be. Depending on the type of lube wipe away the excess (oil) or try to let it dry for a day before wiping (suspended wax). There should be no residual oil on the plates, it should all be in the rollers.
