They might have sold it to a competitor so this could be a big deal. Not to mention this was one of Billet Lab’s only prototype and could’ve set them back months in terms of R&D.

Did this reply contribute anything meaningful to the discussion?

I didn’t, and you’re right about people needing to step up. I’ll try to do so on my end :)

This post wasn’t a request to defederate Beehaw btw. I just wanted to discuss ways we can deal with some of the negatives of federation.

I’m sure you Swifties are lovely people :')

I don’t think this is a moderation issue and I’ll give you an example to highlight why. Someone recently posted to the gaming community asking for advice on a something very basic but easily overlooked. The highest rated comments were basically mocking the poster. Not direct insults or anything ban-worthy but they were unhelpful. I don’t think that’s the type of engagement that people who signed up for this instance would like to see here.

One of the highways (4 lanes on each side) into my city has residential areas on both sides of the road. This is obviously very dangerous so the government puts rumble strips and speed bumps every kilometer or so. You can imagine how irritating driving on this road is.

The city was initially planned with racial segregation in mind by our colonizers, so I do have some sympathy for our government. However, they’ve had 60 years to get their shit together we’re stuck in a city that doesn’t feel like it was designed to be lived in.

Have fun!

Boooooo. That pun somehow managed to make me sterile.

Sounds like you’re burnt out. When’s the last time you took a break?

Burnout sneaks up on ya. You have to actively manage it before it overwhelms you.

Judging by their username this person seems to be a troll.

Hey hey, I’m bijuice.
