Nothing wrong in a good LARP, or masturbation for that matter. The problem with preppers is everything else about them.

Incidentally the same labels make Gmail fundamentally incompatible with the way IMAP works causing lots of weirdness whenever you use any standard email client not specifically designed for Gmail.

But a good landlord with fair prices will prevent evil landlords from price gouging tenants! /s

Just like any game ever sold on a CD.

Isn't it illegal under GDPR? It seems to be the exact same thing Facebook tried to do.

At first I really wanted to say "good, now they are treated the same as the Lebanese people living alongside them" but no, that definitely isn't "good" by any real measure of this word. I hope this whole tragedy will stop soon.

Wouldn't Palworld be a prior work at this point though?

That should result in a sparse file on any sane filesystem, right?

This reasoning kind of falls apart when we consider that one or the most important rules of most religions is to convert others, or at the very least shun them one way or another. Being insufferable about their believes is a crucial part of their believes.

I'd even argue public votes can deescalate some situations, for example where both sides of a relatively heated discussion can see they vote each other up. They don't necessarily agree but they appreciate the other side's points.

As for the transparency, it's not possible to list all the votes of a user, one rather needs to list votes on a given post. To profile a given user the attacker would need to cross-reference the data from all posts and comments which is computationally infeasible, both client-side and server-side.

On Kbin the votes are 100% public for anyone. I've migrated to Lemmy after the frequent server issues with Kbin and I miss that part dearly. It was very easy to gauge whether someone was engaging in a good or bad faith discussion by checking the votes within a discussion. That being said, personally I'm very light on my downvotes, and I can see how someone more trigger-happy would see it as worrying. Personally I see the vote transparency as healthy though.

Is this what the Nazi Germany looked like in the 1930s?
