Griffin got wins off an easy schedule. The mistake was not firing Bud or firing Griffin, it was getting the Griffin hire wrong and not fixing the old core.

Different spider, the meme is about Ungoliant

No Giannis means this could be a rough one

And the signature move of statists like you is to come into communities about libertarianism just to troll and disgorge verbal diarrhea of a statist nature.

It’s all the statist uniparty. There is no difference

They’ve been working on a cloud backup feature, which might enable this.

Session eliminated perfect forward secrecy. Big no for those who take encryption seriously.

This is nonsense

I agree with a lot of what you say, but your last line is ridiculous. Everyone in LotR was armed to the teeth, and that was no hindrance to expressing their feelings for one another.

Can you be a little more precise about how to navigate to this setting? I’m not finding it.

I get it when I try to change view quickly after opening the app

I’m perfectly calm and at no point have I engaged in name calling. As for the redirects, nobody is required to take those. Those who want to engage in the discussion more may choose to follow the link, and others will not. No one- or two-sentence description will replace reading the full article. I can’t understand how you think the prior state of the community is superior. Most posts here don’t get more than a handful of comments, be it an external article or an essay written here.

Implementing these rules would kill any chance at an active community. Things are already slow here, and the articles have actually spurred some activity. If you prefer no community to a community that doesn’t 100% follow your preferred rules, then go ahead with the plan. This post just sounds like a moderator trying to find an excuse for existence. Getting annoyed by articles that are a common prompt for discussion on many platforms and calling article posts “meaningless spam” is ridiculous.

Bad idea. While there is a place for longer-form posts, news articles are valuable as well. Articles can inspire good discussion, just like longer posts can. Fewer people have time to write longer posts, and this community was quite inactive until people started posting news articles.

Libertarians believe that the compensation you earn is what the market dictates given productivity and other economic conditions. Terms like “honest pay” and “living wage” are meaningless and have no place in a serious conversation about economics.

You don’t sound very libertarian to me.

lol Herbert had some weird fantasy about a guy named Duncan from Idaho. Only explanation for some of that stuff.

They do not at this time intend to drop the phone number requirement, as they see it as an anti-spam measure. Meredith Whittaker has said as much. Phone number privacy is a project independent of requiring phone number at signup, and it just prevents other users from seeing your number.

Usernames have not been released yet. When they are released, phone number will still be required for registration, but you will be able to hide it from other people on Signal.
