underline960@sh.itjust.worksto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x more likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of a population has ever failed4·2 days agoWhat does Chenoweth consider is violent?
Where’s the line where she would classify your movement as violent (and therefore likely to fail)?
Gerrymandering and the electoral college do a lot of heavy lifting
I don’t usually hear this opinion.
Most of the time, it’s about how XMPP has everything you need without the boat of a Matrix server.
underline960@sh.itjust.worksOPto Privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Is UX/UI and marketing really the reason XMPP lags behind Signal/Matrix/Telegram?2·2 days agoWhat I don’t get is why Meta doesn’t just unite all 3 under “Messenger”.
They needed a smaller app for countries that don’t have WiFi, only cell plans.
A lot of countries use only Messenger or WhatsApp, and consolidating them would change the name and be a brand risk.

underline960@sh.itjust.worksto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•Bandwagon is Bringing Music Sales to the Fediverse21·4 days agoI barely know anything about you or the service, but your posts in that thread actively drive me away from it.
underline960@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it okay for gay people to call ourselves homophobic slurs?13·4 days agoAgreed. Call yourself whatever you want.
I consider this:
One part sarcasm, one part hoping they’d actually do it and get in trouble.
as underhanded and immature. What kind of argument were you having?
Reminds me of the ‘murder is okay’ meme.
Edit: this one.
underline960@sh.itjust.worksto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•One major issue with social media is that it operates on a first come, first served basis. This essentially rules out the possibility of well-considered, well-researched content being successful.6·5 days agoWhat you do is you go into the tumblr mines to screenshot someone else’s considered takes, and then be the first to post it somewhere else.

underline960@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•The Current System of Online Advertising has Been Ruled Illegal by The Belgian Court of Appeal. Advertising itself is Still Allowed, but not in a Way That Secretly Tracks Everyone’s Behavior.English75·8 days agoThis is a win for everyone in Europe, and possibly beyond. [Emphasis mine.] Companies may no longer secretly track your behavior based on “consent” given under pressure. Hopefully, this will not only put an end to these dubious practices, but also to those pesky cookie banners.
But we’re not there yet. Regulators have ruled the system illegal, and the court’s ruling has now confirmed it. Still, the companies making billions from this model won’t stop on their own. That’s why European regulators must now truly step up: enforce the law and make sure these companies actually comply.
Regulators try not to get compromised by lobbyists when billions of dollars are at stake.
I sincerely wish you good luck.
Yup.
