Yeah it’s weird phrasing, but there’s almost certainly nothing to it.

I’m pretty sure it just means it’s a she.

1. The warnings appear only to piefed users, which are a small fraction of Threadisers. And given whoever is doing this isn’t even on piefed, they wouldn’t be seeing it to begin with.
2. The comics they’ve been posting have for the most part been highly upvoted, so they would have a positive reputation score, not negative.
3. There is no such posting limit. And it doesn’t explain them deleting their own posts which have garnered huge amounts of upvotes and comments.

In case you are unaware, I’m referring to an ongoing person trolling the comics comm, it’s been an active trend for the past month or so.

Edit: This comment thread picked up 3 ppl downvoting me and upvoting the other commentor immediately. Checking the vote ids, of course it’s OP and their sibling day old accounts. Yay for vote manipulation.

What’s particularly meaningless is the comments on this article, after OP deletes their post/account in a couple days

Guess you’re getting eaten along with the rest of the rich when the time comes 😁

Oh gods, the irony.

I’m stepping away from the conversation now. Thanks for keeping the conversation civil, even if we disagree.

Also at this point, it’s very clear that we’ve devolved into an argument about semantics, as I asserted a few comments ago. While I disagree strongly with your definition, I see no chance either of us will be changing each other’s mind and I have no interest in trying.

All I ask is you stop misrepresenting the community when it’s very clear that we’re talking about different things. I hope at some point you’ll see the value of having safe spaces for people, whether or not you need it yourself.

Your article is based on a false dichotomy to begin with, that politics is either ‘all human interaction’, or ‘stuff I disagree with’. You miss the common definition that most of the world operates by, where politics relates to stuff related to governance.

When your parents told you it was bed time, they used political power.

By your definition perhaps. Most of us disagree.

Everything is political.

No, you’ve changed and diluted the word to the point it’s meaningless and taken away a term that’s actually useful. You want to redefine it for yourself, sure. But stop acting as if everybody else agrees with (or is even aware of the existence of) your definition.

If you choose to use a different definition of a common word than everyone else,

This is the first definition from Cambridge dictionary. I don’t see how my definition differs significantly.

the activities of the government, members of law-making organizations, or people who try to influence the way a country is governed:

“Politics” as a negatively loaded word is also a conservative dogwhistle

Perhaps in the US. I would remind you that you’re on a global website. Most of us use politics to mean, well, politics, not whatever conservative bullshit is going on.

There are a lot of definitions of the word ‘political’. I made it pretty clear in the rules that I was referring to Trump, the megacorps, and general gloom and doom of the day stuff. By that definition, none of your examples are ‘political’. Yes, you have your own definition that differs, but since we’re discussing the community and what it stands for, that’s the one that matters at the moment.

Star wars? Hunger games? Frostpunk? Sure, post content about them, I’ll be the first to upvote them.

It sounds like you’ve ascribed a definition and intent to the community that’s very different from what I stated in the sidebar, in which case this is actually just a semantics discussion of what ‘politics’ is.

But people like you want to transform politics into a dirty word, […] You want to encourage people to fear and hate politics.

Stop ascribing malicious intent to me that does not exist. I’m sorry your life sucks, and you have to fight for your right to exist. I wish you could take a step back and see the value in a place where you can stop fighting, stop raging for a moment and just be yourself. Even if you can’t however, realise that others who are in the same position as you may value that place. Don’t tear it down for others just because of your current state of mind.

https://piefed.social/post/1668914 about a trans kid and her parents, is the 2nd highest upvoted post in the comm. The discussions in there speak volumes.

Fuck off with your ‘apathy’ bullshit. You have no idea what I do outside of that community, or how I think. A place for people to relax and forget some cares is not ‘apathy’. You want to be seething and raging 24/7, you do you.

If they had made the change for that reason, sure. But the actual stated cause was some pretty thing.

‘Centrist’ is a dirty word, and that’s a blatant misrepresentation of the community.

Nah, was pretty simple. Just time travel

Problem is, that doesn’t work for links to actual posts, only communities.

ICE engines are not particularly noisy, it’s rotors that make the most noise. IDK about the exhaust, but I can only think of thermal sensors and shouldn’t hydrogen be exothermic too?

Environmental friendliness is way down the list of priorities in war, from the perspective of the army.

And HICE engines have higher power density, which makes sense for recon drones, unless the tanks nullify that.

Right, that’s what I mean by the article not mentioning any actual advantages, which makes me think they’re not actually winning the tradeoff game.

You can do it with gasoline too, while using some of it to hightail out of there :)

WDYM about the exhaust, though? I’d imagine the heat trail from combusting either fuel would be about the same.
