I was speaking to the general practice of filtering in response to the echo chamber generalization, not the original post calling out instances. Personally I filter out porn instances because that’s not what I’m here for. The nice thing about the app I use is that I don’t see any posts from those instances but I can choose to see comments because people interacting on the posts I see are generally there for random reasons and are reacting instead of posting their whatever.

oh yeah for sure. Dude they orchestrated a coup and took over Hawaii in the like 1800s.

Plus I think there was fuckery in Latin America even back then.

Yeah CIA likes to overthrow foreign governments, some democratically elected, and destabilize nations. They say they don’t do it anymore but who knows. It’s pretty public knowledge.

Edit: I live in America and it’s like that thing where you can talk shit about your own family.

Not sure how to on desktop but I use Connect and it’s in the menu options of posts. Super easy to block individuals, communities, and instances.

Bruh. It’s not an echo chamber to filter out literal Nazis and other stuff. Ain’t nobody changing their mind from “spirited” internet debate and I don’t need their garbage in my day.

I agree, the filters here are great. I don’t mind the real world stuff but I filter your instance because I don’t want to see furry porn.

(Not trying to be snarky, your kinks are not any of my business, hence the filter. My comment is meant to be genuine.)

Look man, all I know is it makes writing cover letters way faster.

Yeah and in that movie those gals had a paid lunch hour WITHIN that 9-5 timeframe. Can you imagine? Damn that would be nice.

Every place I’ve ever worked most people who worked 8s worked 8-5 with a 1 hour unpaid lunch. In fact, 8-5 is what is considered business hours in my industry.

And should not be accommodated by dictionaries.

Kitchen dust that has married airborne grease has entered the chat.

In all seriousness I’m too busy battling toothpaste, misc hair/skin products, soaps, and unmentionables to notice bathroom dust.

I delete about 80% of the comments I write before posting. Even if I took the time to write a long response. This is because of the general nature of the Internet and reddit culture is definitely here on Lemmy. But, like this comment, I’ll try to engage more because I also miss the discussion aspect on posts.

Actually, I knew. We were immature and playing for longer than other kids but there was a feeling the last time. I can picture it now, running around in the dark giggling and as our Make Believe characters. It was harder to assume our roles that time. We promised to play again at the next sleepover but somehow, I knew. There was a crisp winter feeling of finality and I felt that we were leaving the world of pretend behind. The next time we hung out we did other things that were fun. Dance to Whitney Houston, read books, sneak into their mom’s room to try on all of her random hats, general pre-teen shenanigans.

I think we knew we were behind. At least I was aware of it. For a while we didn’t care but the horrors of puberty come for us all I suppose.

The Clapper 👏👏

An article came out last month or sometime relatively recently that basically says blue light filtering doesn’t help jack.

Personally I prefer warm toned light in everything except my computer monitor.

Edit: published study AND summary article. I only read the article but there is a published study associated with it.

Nah, not the cremains but the smoke contains all the volatiles and is not insignificantly toxic.
