I don't believe any of that. But I could be wrong. I only wish I could find out and then let ya know how I'm doing

I think he would be happy if he didn't care what people think. I need his money, with my personality tho. :)

And also your brain would be so damaged by the money you wouldn’t be able to enjoy anything.

I don't know, man. Drugs and women. All my money would go to that. I feel I could enjoy a lot of stuff with that much money. Not to mention I would buy a huge Lemmy instance just to annoy and shitpost. Welcome to UniversalMonkWorld baaaabbbyyy!!!!

You have higher morals than me. :)

Yeah, that's definitely sus looking so I can see how mods might think that

It tracks karma, automatically collapses replies and hides threads based on downvote thresholds

Not cool at all.

Great points that I never thought of. Great post!

I like piefed and think it's a great idea.

Imma be honest, you actually made being a billionaire sound cool.

I don't think I am understanding the whole thing. Your title of post says you got banned for screen name honoring dead friend. But then in your summary you said you got banned "for no reason."

Did they they tell you it was for your screen name?

fediverse needs no voting

I understand the mods frustation, even tho in this case it does seem extreme. I actually saw a person admit that they were fine getting banned for downvoting because there would be a "record" of them disagreeing with everything the community said. So some people are legit doing it on purpose to get in the logs.

Lemmy, man... lol Some here take this shit way too seriously.

 
 

The Lantern (Written by Universal Monk)

Fog hushed the marsh as Josiah trudged through knee-high reeds. Somewhere ahead, a bell rang slow and distant.

Then she appeared. Barefoot. Dress torn. Eyes sad.

She held up a lantern.

“You dropped this,” she called out.

He raised his own. Still in hand. Still lit.

The girl stepped closer. “You dropped it when you drowned.”

The flame inside her lantern turned red. Josiah looked down. His boots were gone. Water up to his chest. Breath shallow.

Behind the glass of her lantern, a tiny version of him pounded and screamed.

The girl smiled. “I’ll take good care of you.”

This is an article on sci-hub, but I'd be happy to put it somewhere else more fediverse-ish if you all have any ideas where to do that.

Kopimism is a modern parody-religion Piracy Movement that treats information as sacred and believes copying and sharing it is a duty.

It began in Sweden and blends digital rights activism with a unique moral system built around creativity, collaboration, and freedom.

Kopimists don’t worship a "god" but follow principles like respecting privacy and remixing knowledge to improve the world.

 

In the early 2000s, the concept of “One Laptop Per Child” (OLPC) captured the imagination of the world. The ambitious project aimed to provide every child in the world with a low-cost, rugged, and connected laptop, revolutionizing education and bridging the digital divide. It didn't happen.
