  • Yeah, the mods who are doing this appear to believe lurkers don't exist and anyone who doesn't make a comment but down votes is part of a brigade.

  • They assume anyone who down votes without commenting is brigading.

  • What is 'drive by down voting'?

  • They are calling four down votes brigading, because four people disliking something that comes across their All feed is obviously coordinated and not just coincidence.

  • I predict she will still vote Republican the next go around for similar stupid reasons.

  • I will continue to enjoy it, thanks!

  • Actually, if you read the post they said it was a single down vote, not one for each community. They even said some of the communities don't even have a single post to down vote.

    1. Some of the communities I was banned from don’t have any posts in them so I wouldn’t have been able to downvote anything.
    2. Of all of these Communities, in my history** I downvoted one post in one of them**

    You are 'guessing' the opposite of what actually happened, which is consistent with other dbzer0 AI fanatics who treat a single down vote as brigading.

  • The mods that banned me for 'systemic down voting' and 'anti-ai harassment' because I down voted a few AI posts and didn't feel bad also lectured me about how horrible down voting is and how much it hurts the fediverse.

    My upvote to down vote ratio is far better than either of those two mods.

  • If people don't want to be 'insulted' by low offer then they shouldn't present it in a format that allows for offers that are 'too low'. It would take less time to reject the bid they allowed to happen than to write a response.

    I have personally purchased at least one thing for 10% of the asking price (around $500) because I was the only one who wanted it and they wanted to get rid of it. That was what it was worth to me, I wasn't trying to haggle or anything, just made an offhand offer when walking by.

  • When you assume a single downvote is brigading...

  • Yes, a few of the mods will ban anyone who downvotes AI or misinformation without making a comment or because you downvoted 'too many times' or some other bullshit. My 'systemic downvoting' and 'anti-ai harassment' community bans are for downvoting a few posts and not being sorry about it.

  • Your point is a valid one! Just not in the context of discoverability.

  • The more I know the dumber I feel when I make a stupid mistake.

    It isn't that I am dumber, but I do feel dumber.

  • I'm probably going to get the exact math wrong, but statistically approaching the end of a range has a bigger impact than in the middle.

    100% lower would mean zero emissions. If the car went from 50% to 25% the percentage from the starting point is 25% comparatively, but the 25% is half of 50% so it is twice as close to zero.

    Going from 27% to 22% is an 18.% improvement compared to 27% (if I remember the match correctly). That pretty much means that the last 20% or so is manufacturing and maintenance of the EV and the renewable infrastructure.

  • Quality moderation would have made that clear when there are several different possibilities baked into one rule.

  • There is a massive gap between handing out guns in happy meals and being hard to get.

    Committing violent crimes or being of unsound mind are perfectly fine reasons for restricting possession as long as there is due process and the possibility of restoring the rights under certain conditions. If someone is charged with a violent crime then they shouldn't have possession of firearms until that matter is settled.

    There will always be the cases where someone has zero history of violence before they commit a crime so it wouldn't be perfect, but even in the US most states have restrictions based on obvious reasons someone shouldn't have a gun.

  • There is a sweet spot where you put it off a bit but think it through while stressing, then spend the time powering through it while leaving some time to spare in case you screw it up. Only took a couple of decades to get decent at estimating!

  • It isn't unique to ADHD, but it is very common with ADHD. Pretty much everything that defines ADHD is something everyone does but dialed up to the point that it is a disorder.
