@mewmew I think you would measure diversity of thought by number of mutually-exclusive statements made by different users. Due to Gab's sheer volume it would probably be true, but not when adjusted for server size (eg taken as a proportion of the whole user base)

Where did you hear this? Lying and hate speech is covered under the first amendment.

The only cases where they aren't is when they cause tangible harm to others (lying about somebody causes others to attack them, or damages their reputation so they can't get a job, or hate speech that inspires others to commit real-life harassment).

And most non-violent calls to action should be okay, too.

@realcaseyrollins @J @moonman yarly. you don't need that particular frontend, but you *do* need some frontend. Kinda like how you don't need gameliberty.club to access the fediverse. Now how *to* access it is kind of an open question.

@J @igeljaeger @jasonl8446@neckbeard.xyz Probably why didn't have any troublemakers until I came along, tee hee...

@jasonl8446 @J the important distinction here is:
A: FSE is run out of the pockets of a single man, with no arbitrary "pro" shit
B: that man stays true to the meaning of freespeech
C: he's likable and actually responds to criticism

I broke self-quarantine because i had to go to the pharmacy, and while i was out i topped off my tank and grabbed some cash at the bank. I broke out the gloves for the first time and did the drive-thru for the pharmacy and bank.

There are considerably fewer cars on the road, especially for this time of day, but most of that is probably due to parents not having to pick up kids.

There was only one funeral tent up at the cemetary and no signs of mass graves, but the family who have been camped out at one of the graves 365 days a year finally went home, which i found kind of alarming. These people are so ubiquitous that the cemetary planted a hedge last fall that will soon be high enough to hide them, their folding chairs, and their picnic coolers from the road, but now that they're gone, i miss them :(

@mk Oh, it actually is...

For clarity: Safespace is male. Snowflake is the non-binary one (although if you ask me, she certainly looks female).

reasons I don't hate the library in halo ce:
- you're given one of the best shotguns in all video games and a horde of enemies that it's good against


how do you not like it??

OK I generally don't like (at least based on my past experiences), but I've been really liking fedi.absturztau.be so far. Doesn't federate super well with other instances, but it works, and it's compatible, so that's kewl.
