when I was trying to show images from this site to somebody else through Zoom.

why the hell are you using zoom

you’re probably right. i just picked thiel cause he’s really weird and also has his finger everywhere in a lot of weird places

can someone on a server that isnt defederated from lemmy.world send this comment for me?

copied from earlier comment above: teamspeak (although i dont think they have teamspeak 6 server files available yet?), riot! (now called stoat apparently?), mumble, matrix, and jitsi meet

oh yeah if you’re ok seperating the chat and voice app i really like deltachat for chatting in the group

im hoping i can use an ai altered image of stalin or some other communist leader like that lmao

it’s fine as long as you dont have the server marked as 18+

also, supposedly they will be having an ai determine people who are 18+ so you might not even need to upload anything

still, if this leaves too sour of a taste in your mouth the alternatives i can think of off the top of my head are: teamspeak (although i dont think they have teamspeak 6 server files available yet?), riot! (now called stoat apparently?), mumble, matrix, and jitsi meet

teamspeak 4 felt like it was in the stone age while discord had a bunch of cool ass features for chatting outside of voice. it also was much more appealing to casuals by being free to use and super easy to set up your own server, whereas setting up your own teamspeak server involved portforwarding and whatnot that turns off the vast majority of “normies”

ultimately i think it’s much much more disruptive to society and really to the NFL to have the players trying to spread a message about social justice than the superbowl halftime performer. Like, think about it this way: the halftime performer will be lucky to perform for the superbowl even twice, i think the most anyone has ever been on stage was 3 times from a quick search and even imagining some performer who first performs in the super bowl as like, a 12 year old i struggle to imagine them performing more than 5 times. meanwhile a player who takes a stand will be able to do so week after week for years, maybe even a decade+, and since he is an athlete he could inspire many other athletes to take a stand over those years, who could themselves inspire other athletes, etc.

goofy thought: u know all these bourgeoisie pedophile scum didnt stop after epstein got caught, who do yall think is the new epstein? my money’s on thiel

lmao

wut? why did you reply, reply to your own comment 3 times then delete the original comment???

i dont think it’s any harder than any other fiction? surely even a little shared world building is easier than coming up with all of it on your own? it’s so bad man people dont even display class struggle of like, workers coming together to strike and how the owning class deals with that? like ultimately even with a magic system i dont think should actually be that hard to display some sort of class struggle, really my complaint boils down to not only are there very view outright socialist works there are barely even any works that show class struggle in fantasy/sci fi worlds?

nice! it feels to me there is a dearth of communist fiction out there, although admittedly i have only mostly read fanfiction for a longtime so maybe there is much more original communist fiction compared to fanfic which for whatever reason seems to have a particularly high concentration of shitlib/radlib works (not to mention ive found way more outright fascist work than communist fanfics!)

the good news is that with so many open source alternatives out there if a state decides to actually seriously try to switch i dont think it would be too difficult to just start paying a bunch of devs to fix up the open source alternatives that arent up to snuff, biggest issue would be getting all the businesses and what not to switch

thx admins for approving my account so quickly, ive had to wait awhile before
