All of Israel is occupied Palestinian territory.

Regardless, this is non-binding. I don't expect it to do anything.

Yup!

Not that that's new. They've been assassinating people around the world for decades: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Israeli_assassinations

Hell, they bombed a hotel even before Israel itself was established: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing

Too late, I already did.

Does the MTA not have security cameras? I live in Boston where the system is an antique (literally, in one part) and we have cameras on all platforms and all new trains.

(Granted, we did also face that bombing a few years ago that probably was used to justify the funding for it.)

So are we taking bets on next month or what?

Good deeds should not be dependent on the whims of the rich. Tax them.

Just having them there on detail probably costs more than they recover from fare evaders.

I don't think he's capable of feeling shame.

Maybe we shouldn't be treating text generators as sources of truth.

Isn't there some liability for someone who provides inaccurate voting information? Perhaps that could be used to influence Google et al. to stop providing AI summaries on their results pages.

Headline is misleading. They're not destroying playgrounds, they're ripping up pavement and planting trees.

Personally I've never seen a paved playground. Mine usually had sand or woodchips.

Not sure why NBC is framing this as a problem with how the bodies were used, when it's clearly a problem with the Texas officials who are selling bodies with zero effort to notify anyone. Like one literally had a missing person report out for them!

If you tap that link in Boost it'll probably crash, so don't do it unless you're okay with that.

I'm guessing the problem is that the post URL is a magnet link.

Edit: oh yeah, to work around, you'll have to open it in a browser and hide it.

I got banned earlier today with the message "rule 1", no other information about why, or which comment broke the rule. As far as I can tell it was this one, which just says "We want the bot gone. That’s it. It’s really that simple."

So I checked the modlog for other bans, and @aniki@lemmings.world was banned today as well, also just for "rule 1", probably either for the comment saying "a stupid bot writing useless bullshit" or "This is what you call "Not listening to criticism."", neither of which are an attack on any person.

(Also earlier today @MindTraveller@lemmy.ca was banned with the message "fuck off", which I'm pretty sure is not a reason to ban someone from a major community, but doesn't appear to be related to the MBFC bot.)

One more today, @stormesp@lemm.ee was banned, again just "rule 1", last comment being this one, again not an attack on any person.

So what's the deal here? I couldn't find any rules for mods on lemmy.world with a brief poke around, but are we letting mods run major communities like little fiefdoms, banning people for criticism?
