This will ultimately lead to world peace as every army is in meetings all day.

Agreed. I love one particular brand and find a lot of others have cardboard undertones.

I find whole milk to be very sweet in comparison to oak milk, with skim being even sweeter.

Smart. I’ve seen it on manufacturing lines for operators logging into SAP. They put the barcode on the back of their badge.

That’s a really great point. I like to reserve my Friday afternoons for side projects or learning. This gives me something fun to look forward to and keeps me in touch with engineering.

It’s retroactive and it’s not based on sales, it’s based on installs. So for example, I purchase a game on steam and I own a PC, a steam deck, and I have a kid with a PC. That’s 3x the fees for one sale even though I can only play it on one device at a time. Maybe I get bored of the game and uninstall it. A year later I want to play it again, there’s a new fee for the same sale and PC that unity gets.

They’ve already said that they are looking into it more and will reverse the decision once they have clarity on their personal liability.

FYI, there were screenshots with links direct to pirated materials shared.

That’s not true unfortunately. Any user posting on any instance to that community is cached locally and served from .world and the admins can’t do anything about it when the community is hosted on another instance.

Next time host your own instance with your own money and own risk.

Not only is it cached, it is redistributed to all lemmy.world users when they visit that community. It’s equivalent to hosting something you can’t moderate.

Host your own instance and take your own risks. These are just volunteers that don’t want the liability.

The content is hosted on lemmy.world - that’s how the fediverse works. Each instance pushes updates to other instances and they host it locally for their users. The issue is that the admins here can’t moderate a community not on their instance. So if an instance is located somewhere it is legal, it might not be legal at the location of another instance.

They didn’t defederate, they simply blocked that community from being hosted locally on lemmy.world. The admins of lemmy.world cannot moderate the content coming from a community hosted on another instance. They can only moderate content that originates here.
