I had to get one to use Gsync. If you have an Amd card or that monitor isn’t adaptive sync then that shouldn’t be a limitation.

I love boost! Can’t wait!

He said very nice… What more do you want from him!?

I’m a big Boost guy myself. Pretty excited for when it is done!

Yes, I said that. Well technically I said Gab was. Truth was so forked I don’t believe there was even an option to defederate them. They intended on a walled garden on their own.

I mean, they’re there to talk to… If you like jacking each other off… I don’t.

I’d say I’m generally conservative and have been dabbling in alternative social media for a number of years. Some of the biggest Mastodon instances are/were right leaning. Gab.ai started off as a proprietary site and then migrated to Mastodon. Truth.social was always based on Mastodon. I’ve never been active on them because I don’t like echo chambers though. I’ve never really had a desire to have my thoughts reaffirmed by strangers…

I would assume they’re presence isn’t felt in the fediverse because the concept of de-federating is working? Gab is likely cut off by others and truth social never federated with others to begin with. I don’t think Truth ever intended to though, and really just wanted something they didn’t have to build from scratch.

The only Mastodon instance I actually have an account with now is somewhat right leaning but it’s not their emphasis. Even then I’m not too active on it.

They are hearty for sure and that can be seen as an urge or will to live. Animals are dumb and have a shocking lack of self preservation. Are you talking about conscious ‘I want to live, I better not do that’ or ‘I will find a way to live in my circumstances’?

I’ve raised quite a few farm animals. They don’t have an urge to live. My goodness do they take every chance to get themselves killed…

I’m actually a pretty big fan. I really like his show Guy’s Grocery Games. It just seems different compared to most cooking shows/competitions out there. Most seem scripted and rigid. While I get that grocery games has to have a script it just feels off the rails sometimes and I find it appealing. I get that Guy probably isn’t the best chef out there but just seems like a good dude who would always go out of his way to help others.

I have never seen the word elixir on a coffee shop menu… With that being said… If I did see it this would be my exact reaction!

If they knew that is was going to murder someone they wouldn’t sell it. In theory… The point being that they aren’t, and never have been obligated to sell a firearm to anyone.

I used to love me some Inbox for Gmail.

It’s freedom in the loosest sense. As in there’s more options. Would it still be freedom if a government makes choices for you? I suppose if I have the means to move to a different country it technically still is. Still distasteful. I don’t know the people that run my instance. Why should I trust them to know what’s best? We’ll see how it shakes out.

Why can’t people decide for themselves? I don’t get the appeal of someone blocking something for me? A real turn off for me on lemmy so far. I get it for now since the tools aren’t there yet but long term if it continues to be an issue I’d probably have to self host or get out.

Blocking entire instances is. Not individual communities.

These are good points but apparently it was just a community on that instance… The instance itself wasn’t the problem. You can in fact block a community as a user. People absolutely have the power to block the_Donald community on that instance on their own.

That’s the idea… It’s a protest of a different kind. Still makes the point about moderation needed by people who do it for free.

I’d consider myself conservative. I’d say they were going to alternate platforms long ago. That was everyone’s complaint about all the so-called alternatives is that they leaned heavily right.

Not even sure how r/conservative was allowed to live. Many are misreading their intentions about staying open during the blackout. They want to just not moderate and let everyone go hogwild so it looks like shit. Still proves the point that reddit leaves and breathes by users and moderators goodwill. I prefer the blackout and don’t use it method though and that’s why I’m here.
