Oh fuck :(

Whelp…boo-urns. :(

OOTL and someone who only uses a vm once every several years for shits & grins: What happened to vmware?

Well I wish you luck in finding what you’re looking for, but Lemmy/Kbin by definition isn’t it.

Any community that isn’t 100% fully owned and operated by you, yourself, Mango, is going to run into the risk of a mod ‘censoring’ or deleting something that you wanna see.

Any and every community. Here, Reddit, Facebook, any social media, any forum public or private. If you yourself don’t own and run it in its entirely, that’s a problem you cannot avoid.

So I mean this without any real intended offense but: shit or get off the pot. Run your own community that connects to no other system or service run by other people and hope the people you wanna talk to drop by, or tbh get used to it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Edit: Can revenge-downvote me all you want Pepsi but I’m right on this one lol.

I know right? Magical!

You can, it’s called hosting your own instance. It’s literally one of the points of the Fediverse (i.e. ‘Fuck you I don’t like how you’re running things, I’ll go make my own with blackjack and hookers’). If an instance admin does things you don’t like, you get to leave, go to a new instance, and follow the same communities you did before via that one instead.

Canada: First time?

Cena’s infamous for being (comparably) quite loud in the ring when calling things. Always manages to get picked up by the mic’s.

Asked and answered but to chime in also: Boxing is not fixed (outside of incidents involving crooked people of course).

Pro Wrestling is choreographed performances. The results of matches are predetermined by the booker. The wrestlers come together before hand, decide between them some ‘spots’ they wanna do during the match but otherwise go out there and ‘call a match’ live (giving each other verbal cues to do certain things/do certain things to them which the audience doesn’t/can’t hear [hopefully, looking at you Cena lol]).

The moves are done in specific ways to minimize actual damage, and wrestlers are trained to land, and take moves in specific ways to minimize actual damage.

A good source is the Santino Bros Wrestling Academy out in Cali. They have a playlist on their YouTube channel showing the basics of almost any wrestling move you’d wanna know and learn. Watch some of em and you can see the tricks.

Or the 3 or 4 times New Jack tried to straight up kill someone during a match.

I.E. A Tuesday.

When the Redditpocalypse started and we all came this way, someone made a post about this very thing. I still stand by my statement that day (which I paraphrase):

I don’t care about emoji’s enough to whine until it’s excessive. Reddit’s insistence that one “😀” is the end of the world was pants-on-head-stupid. Use emoji’s all you fuckin’ want, but if you start putting 3+ in 1 comment I’m going to prep a straight jacket for the person.

If only :(

Mostly posters and flags in the geeky/gamer/nerd vein, which are taken down and rotated with others every couple years for shits n grins.

Lotta words to justify people being turned on by the sight of the underaged.

Don’t worry, some of us understood lol.

I’d really like an algorithm (optional, of course). Getting content you want to see is really difficult. It’s hard to find people to follow, and when you do you get all of their posts in your feed, not just the ones you want to see.

Make sure you are following hashtags if you aren’t. Follow people to get everything they post. Follow hashtags and you’ll just get interest based posts (since pretty much everyone hashtags the shit out of their posts for visibility).

Why is it 5 spaces at the end of a line to make a new line

I just hit enter/return twice.

Like that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Never bothered with 5 spaces.

1. Use paragraphs, please.

2. Wrong community. Clearly.
