The incompetence of the bucket allowed flowers to thrive, leading them to eventually achieve sapience and overthrow the farmer. It was during the renaissance after the post industrial age of flower society that a new peaceful era dedicated to the worship of the wooden bucket began.

Because the mod they share locked it to force a move to the lemmy.world one: https://kbin.melroy.org/m/[email protected]/t/676055/WE-ARE-MOVING-TO-LEMMY-WORLD

But this is a prime example that mods are not their community, which is why I believe users should be able to choose their preferred or alternate moderators when participating in a community.

Their business isn't put at risk, we are long past the time when there were Edward Snowdens. Any intelligence agency involvement would be highly localized, highly specialized, and highly classified. You'd have more of a chance of a CEO of such a service outing themselves by sucking up to Donald Trump than getting ratted out. There are plenty of services that at one point or another did price themselves as being the privacy option that were later exposed, usually because they came from more well known brands that just happened to run into the situations that would expose them due to market presence.

A CEO is a good indication of the internal company culture at the top. He may be as much of a libertarian as Elon Musk is a "free speech absolutist", I'm not going to assume the best case scenario because I am not invested in proton and don't have an innate sunk cost fallacy. I agree with that comment, "it seems like he might just be bootlicking whoever is in power as appeasement".

I bet you go to sleep with it every night.

Translation: DOUBT! DENY! STRAWMAN!

Actually, I always had the notion that proton was focused on security until this bit of news. This isn't some conspiracy, I stay away from any social network or email service whose CEOs begin sucking up to Donald Trump because it's a dead giveaway of how the leadership of those services are willing to discard ethics and morality for profits and preferential treatment. With services like Proton, this would most easily be done by making concessions to intelligence agencies. A CEO isn't just "one bad apple".

Welp, if you ever wanted any confirmation whether Proton was really psyops ...

The captured ones believed they were in training. They live inside of a bubble, to them, the propaganda is everything they are exposed outside of their country.

I consider this rather foreboding for their SFF 5090 release. If anyone is getting one, seriously reconsider getting one from another manufacturer, the guy in charge of overheating concerns got thrown out the window.

Stop it, or you will get the US to invade Iraq again. And then Canada.

It's a common trope in these sort of games, the more humanoid they are the more powerful the creature, favoring creatures that closer resemble the human species as superior.

If it's cute, it's non-evolved. The more human-like it is, the more evolved it is. Speciest much?

I just saw that the names show up on mbin, another thing it does right. After checking, I see that it isn't the same mod account. Thanks for the offer though.
