It means I open the site, and I can't read the article because it had some obligatory signup.

Granted, this was on mobile. On desktop it seems I can read it.

If the USA doesn't stand for freedom and democracy, then it stands for nothing at all.

I don't care.

The site doesn't want readers, I'm gonna go back to reading memes.

People largely don't deserve democracy. They tend to choose kings, so long as they don't remember being ruled by one.

It's basically "Ok Taylor. You forced my hand, I'll give you what you want. If my sperm is the only thing that can get you on team Trump, then so be it. Have my sperm."

Not sure why he thinks Taylor Swift wants a little MG 34 Stürmer xXx. He's gone a bit mad.

Shhhh! Let us imagine it could be a success when it finally launches.

Because you aren't allowed medically assisted suicide. The democratic government mandates a rough and tough death for you, because a merciful death is too awful for a fucking voter to think any more on than " Oh no, no death please. I don't want to talk about this anymore, go away or I call the police."

It's not what you wanted to say, but it is what the words you wrote effectively meant.

Nature doesn't lend you credibility. You and your colleagues read Nature because it's how you filter out the trash.
Researchers agree to have it that way. I will not yield on that argument. You do, you agree to it by majority to this day.

So they are the source of your credibility. And you continue to agree to have it that way.

Why publish through a journal at all? What do they do that WordPress doesn't? Are they the source of your credibility? Do they pay the peer reviewers. Or are you all just whipped?

If you're looking at publishing it for free, I'd think it should be fine to put a PDF download in an ordinary blog post with the title and abstract?

Or are there people who won't allow that?

 

I posted a comment with a link to an article on CNN and several links to architecture and construction websites. It seems like reddit doesn't like comments with untrusted links? Are they being subtly hidden from the thread?

If this is being done at any scale at all I wonder if it's a significant cause of the feeling that the internet has shrunk into a few main sites, linking to a recognizable relatively small selection of news and media sources.

 

Is it just random letters arrived to by keyboard mashing like a lot of federated websites seem, or is there any thought behind it?

 

It's always particularly nice and soft the first time you put it on, but the one I got most recently is so bad it leaves a thin but thorough coat of black fur on my arms when I take it off. What's the production methods used when making sweaters like this?

 

It was amazing for a decade or two, but now the night scares me, I do not know what awaits us in the morning.

 

I think this place is too fragmented into instances to ever generate a front page anywhere near what r/all is.

If I understand this page right, https://lemm.ee will never show the top post of the day from https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/, https://discuss.tchncs.de/, or https://feddit.uk/.

And the "front page/general" site is already split into several instances (https://vlemmy.net/, https://lemmy.world/, https://sh.itjust.works/, https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/ and https://lemmy.one/, all claiming to be "a general front page lemmy instance")

So what's the deal, which one are we betting on as the place to direct all the new traffic? What's the contender for primary public internet bulletin board? Right now the arrow to an alternative is looking like this: https://i.imgur.com/L1XsBy6.pngd

I'm personally guessing the conclusion is already reached; We have no place we're betting on. We're disinterested in pushing for any particular result. We don't expect people to migrate. Many might not even want them to.
