Thanks - I actually had the setting turned on already but triggering it off and back on again caused it to start working properly, for whatever reason. Indeed that is a helpful indicator:-).
This account (that you responded to) was created a mere few hours ago. It might even have been created purely to troll people, possibly by someone who has gotten used to being banned using a recognizable account name.
On PieFed I find it very helpful to see an icon next to people's names indicating brand-new accounts. Some Lemmy apps can do that as well (I switched over to Voyager here to see if it would, but nope, at least not by default). Anyway I wanted to point out that it is a very useful feature, for exactly such scenarios as this!
AI Trump, brought to you by Musk:-D
Counterpoint: then why emphasize "nude photos", over e.g. the patients' financial information?
This title is clearly leaning into the sensationalism.
Which has enormous ramifications, e.g. right-wingera world-wide right now have mostly stopped listening to traditional media sources, citing how untrustworthy it is.
In this case the info is at least correct just slanted, though in other cases it gets so slanted as to qualify actually for the word "biased" (even if it was an editorial decision purely for the title of a piece rather than the actual author).
On such events the decay and fall of entire empires democracies rests.
Well, I need to step off of this soapbox I guess - whatever was going to happen has already done so, it would seem, so it may not matter anymore (except... shouldn't others attempt to learn from these mistakes to avoid similar from continuing to happen again?).
Sounds about right to me. I'm not a toxic alpha-male, nor a proper Karen female, all I know is that regardless of what they say I'm actually
Bold of you to presume that they would think of that before doing so!
They are also "patriots" and "Christians" (love they neighbor - who is that? everyone. what does it look like? not... like... that) and "smurt" and "efficient" and so on.
The nice thing is that if we could work on either, then we could work on both at the same time. Caveat: we cannot work on either, for the most part, bc people are selfish and short-sighted:-(.
What I mean is, the link in a Lemmy community when viewed from a Lemmy instance works just fine. So it's not broken at that level.
I can't speak to how it comes across to Mastodon, or your particular method of access to that, as you showed in your screenshot. In general, instances running the Mbin software seem to work better to access both Lemmy and Mastodon, but overall communication between Mastodon and Lemmy seems not perfect, as you said.
There's an interesting graph that someone posted in https://aussie.zone/comment/14827931, but I am no expert so I have no idea personally, just sharing that, which seems to suggest that the highest areas are residential energy and road transportation. Whether that in turn traces to Methane I have no idea:-).
I'm not sure if you'll get this reply @mighty_orbot@retro.pizza, but here's the link visible from Lemmy itself: https://tuta.com/blog/digital-fingerprinting-worse-than-cookies.
Your method of accessing this Lemmy community seems not to be working on your side somehow. You might try a different app - I've never used Mastodon so I don't know what might work.
I see your... whatever that is, and raise you a honey badger don't care.
So it sounds like the first step is to care.
As the OOP said too.
Ikr, like OP couldn't have waited a couple days!? 🤪
Damnit, you just made me realize that my true goal in life was to wear a stillsuit (or maybe it was to be closer to Timothée Chalamet?😊)
True, but also don't allow perfection to be the enemy of good.
I recall in Star Wars when the Jedi accused the Trade Federation of having invaded Naboo. Did it really? This needs to be verified, doesn't it? Oh but wait, it's the word of "Jedi", right, not just "some guys"? Yeah but can we really play at favoritism? Wait, how is that favoritism when they have an established mandate to help protect the Republic... and on and on.
Ironically, they could have sent an entire fleet, and if it turned out to be a simple misunderstanding, then oops, so well, now we know not to trust even "Jedi" in the future.
People are really bad at measuring the cost of NOT acting. Like yeah, vaccines can cause all kinds of things up to and including death... but then again, so too can a deadly disease?!
Anyway, the job of science is to figure stuff out and communicate what was found - not even - necessarily, at least usually - including translation to the general public, which is more of a reporting task. Politics doesn't even begin to enter into that. So I think it's awesome that this science post is pointing out some facts that may be relevant as people discuss the political ramifications and next steps. Ofc communication is a 2-way endeavor and if politicians don't understand what the scientist is saying, they can ask questions, but so far the OOP scientist here seems to have done her part, and quite well it looks to me (who admittedly knows next to nothing whatsoever about climate science, but at least this seems to have succeeded at the communicate clearly portion:-).
