Piper’s #2 and 1/2 of her #1
For short haul flights where a train is preferable, or private iets, absolutely. However airplanes are still the most efficient way to travel long distances. Abolishing airplanes altogether is one of the least thought out takes I’ve ever heard.
I would say it is poorly managed for the fact that their rules and community standards are not clearly outlined. They ban for reasons not listed in their rules. For a community this large, there needs to be some sort of outlined expectations. It’s fairly apparent they are more interested in moderating the subreddit and this Lemmy community is downstream of that in their minds. Expecting us to just magically know the subreddit standards without being listed out is textbook bad management.
Unless that discussion violates mod opinion
The com at the time was dominated by discussion of the Prodigy cancellation, so it was a relevant topic and not being overly critical for the sake of being overly critical. It presented an opinion of the cancelation that wasnt predicting doom and gloom for the franchise like the mod line being pushed at the time.
Even if it isn’t substantial, why isn’t there a list of blocked domains? Or a rule about it? It could have spurred a discussion in the comments, what makes a community forum like this so special. The point is it didn’t violate any community standards. Then when I tried to open a discussion about it to try and refine the rules/community standards moving forward (early days of reddit emigration) I was permabanned for starting drama.
I’m not looking for a com where everyone is super critical. I am looking for one where mods are acting as petty little tyrants banning well meaning contributors because they don’t have the exact same opinion on certain things as they do.
The mods are more interested in the reddit community and it shows. It’s clear Lemmy is downstream of reddit to them.
The mods on startrek.website are the same ones from reddit and care little about transparency or actually hosting a star trek community that fosters open discussion. They are frequently banning users that voice opinions that don’t break any rules except mod opinion.
This has been going on for some time and is the perfect use case for why decentralizing common discussion topics is a feature, not a bug, of the fediverse/lemmy

Surely you can’t be serious.
I am serious, and don’t call me Shirley.
Came here to say this. GL.iNET is amazing
What about 20+ years when it costs between $100-600 from a guy on eBay or the overpriced retro game store?
Multiple players means multiple players in the game you moron. I can’t believe you’re so dense as you can’t imagine a non human player in a game, especially in a computer game! Most five year olds are able to recognize when they’re playing against an opponent. Human or CPU, it’s a player that you are competing against. Nowhere in any definition except the constraints of your limited mind does it specify that the other players in a multiplayer game have to be human controlled. The fact that you legitimately are getting triggered by this would be hilarious if it didn’t indicate a large problem with your cognitive reasoning.
Think outside the box. You’ve been playing a multiplayer game this whole time.
Yeah, multiplayer. Multiple players. Not multiple humans. Sorry you have such a hard time understanding this. But you are playing a multiplayer game wether youre playing with bots or humans.
Well I hope you continue to enjoy playing a multiplayer game alone with the computer
Literally what is the difference between a single player game of civ and a multiplayer game besides how you communicate with the other civs?
It’s the same exact game
I’ll be sure to pass that along to our AI overlords after the apocalypse
You think when you play a multiplayer modes game alone your suddenly playing a game designed as single player? Just because you can play a multiplayer mode alone doesn’t make it a single player game.
Me either. Multiplayer games have multiple players playing. Wether the thinking is done digitally or organically makes no difference. It is possible to play a multiplayer game alone, that does not make it a single player game
J. Kenji López-Alt is fantastic. Professional chef who shows a lot of the how and why in his videos. How to do something in the recipe, and why it’s done. Professional chef with a bunch of other paid resources if you end up liking his style
