196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•if you can't take the heat, get out of the ruleEnglish
2·12 days agoYou will need to be selective. “Dont work on anything that requires a clearance” is a good rule to start with.
But even that is a low bar.
“Dont build tech for the countries with the largest militaries” is closer to my new goal.
Its a great big beautiful world out there. Still a lot to choose from and be able to sleep at night.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Court finds ALPR (Flock) was an unconstitutional search & 4A violation. (positive news)
4·13 days agoThis is great news and what I expected should be considered illegal. What i don’t understand is how nearly all ICE searches are not considered dragnets, and thus illegal.

Technology@lemmy.ml•The Mistral paradox: Europe’s push for tech sovereignty relies on China’s Z.ai
4·2 months agoSo they will be running Chinese models on Microsoft’s servers and selling it as a European product.
I have been paying for mistral but now they just feel like the middleman
Ha, thats true. I guess I would argue its not a complete thought, its more of a sentence fragment, or a headline.
What does “jealous body parts” mean? Would you say this phrase randomly to a friend and expect them to understand what you were talking about?
Hello, thanks for posting to shower thoughts.
Rule 2 is that the entire thought should be in the title.
Feel free to use the body to add more info. its a rule to encourage distilling the core thought.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•How many people in red hats are going to the Rush comeback tour and leave confused and disapointed?
61·2 months agoWhen people report things and i dont take action on the report, i like to add a little comment saying why.
Its not needed but i like to let people know we listen to reports.
Your post is still up. It touches on politics (a political commentator, a political party), but yeah its mostly about a pun, and i can get behind a pun.

31·2 months agoThis was reported for rule 3 no politics.
Its a pun. A political pun that makes it 50% not politics? And the comments are mostly chill.

Memes@lemmy.ml•FIFA protects genocidal ukrainian nazis instead of genocide victims, what a world!
2012·4 months agoThe ukranians are genocidal? Sorry, what?
EDIT: sorry I stirred trouble. I think its good to be critical of any government. From what I know, Ukraine’s military is mostly killing invaders, which is not what I would characturize as a genocide on their part. On the other hand Israel’s military…
Thank you for the understanding and I do agree with your position as well. I did solicit some input from others that share similar views to you, but i have been too lazy to take action on it.
If you have ideas for how to make the rules more objective while still allowing a space for more light hearted content to flourish, I would love to hear your thoughts. Even if they arent fully formed. A community like c/cat_pictures has an easier time of it i imagine.
Sorry, that wasn’t a jab at you.
Here are some of my thoughts if you are interested. Being on lemmy I assume we have similar values and in general agree on a lot, even if the implementation details are messy. I do try to balance all of the various thoughts i get about how showerthoughts should be moderated, and your thoughts are helpful to me.
From my perspective, if communities didnt have rules and enforcement to keep them on-topic then there wouldn’t be much point in having communities. They would all have the same content.
Whats “on-topic” is a hard judgement call sometimes. A “showerthought” is a pretty loose thing but i remember liking r/showerthoughts for the fun clever discoveries that people made about everyday life, and I assume that most of the subscribers to c/showerthoughts are thinking the same thing, but i dont know.
You are correct that it helped reduce the mod workload which I am trying to find a sustainable balance with. Its a catch 22 with politics because people become really impassioned which means people slip up and say inappropriate things, which means you need to take more mod actions, which makes more people angry at you which makes even more work… but if it makes people impassioned then maybe it means its the most important thing to be talking about…
I think the lemmy ecosystem has a lot of space for talking about politics, if people dont subscribe to those communities as heavily then thats another issue, but maybe not because the conversations can be more meaningful. When I browes lemmy i sort by new or scaled so that i can help build engagement in small communities that otherwise dont get much attention. Imdoingmypart.jpg
I have had my posts removed too and yeah i dont like it.
I am the mod that removed your post. I am always happy to talk about it. I do make mistakes and change my mind at times.
Yeah its a gray rule, no doubt about it, but the alternative is the comm flooded with everyone’s political hot take, which quickly drowns out lots of great posts.
