These are good points but apparently it was just a community on that instance... The instance itself wasn't the problem. You can in fact block a community as a user. People absolutely have the power to block the_Donald community on that instance on their own.

Rockstar is selling cracked game copies on steam.

Id say it's more nuanced. The game is theirs? Some might say they stole their work... But the game is theirs and they never contracted or even gave permission for the work to be completed? I'd say it's unethical still since they have the resources to accomplish this on their own.

New water heater got dinged during shipping/delivery. Is it usable?
If I had to guess I'd say it's likely fine. Would I risk it? Hell no! Get it replaced!

This is the first article I've seen that says she did in fact eat the mushrooms too. So many have left that out because they want this to be a scandal.

Why you shouldn't use Brave Browser
To sum up this article: the author disagrees with the Brave CEO's political opinions, which is understandable, and then proceeds to project a bias on the whole project. Ignoring the technical workings along the way. When called out on this he then closes the comments.

Trying coffee shops
I have never seen the word elixir on a coffee shop menu.... With that being said... If I did see it this would be my exact reaction!

Lemmy is more left leaning because the rights popularity seen on other social media are driven by bots that are not here.

I'd say I'm generally conservative and have been dabbling in alternative social media for a number of years. Some of the biggest Mastodon instances are/were right leaning. Gab.ai started off as a proprietary site and then migrated to Mastodon. Truth.social was always based on Mastodon. I've never been active on them because I don't like echo chambers though. I've never really had a desire to have my thoughts reaffirmed by strangers...
I would assume they're presence isn't felt in the fediverse because the concept of de-federating is working? Gab is likely cut off by others and truth social never federated with others to begin with. I don't think Truth ever intended to though, and really just wanted something they didn't have to build from scratch.
The only Mastodon instance I actually have an account with now is somewhat right leaning but it's not their emphasis. Even then I'm not too active on it.

Is it worth getting a DisplayPort cable?
I had to get one to use Gsync. If you have an Amd card or that monitor isn't adaptive sync then that shouldn't be a limitation.

What do you think about Guy Fieri ?
I'm actually a pretty big fan. I really like his show Guy's Grocery Games. It just seems different compared to most cooking shows/competitions out there. Most seem scripted and rigid. While I get that grocery games has to have a script it just feels off the rails sometimes and I find it appealing. I get that Guy probably isn't the best chef out there but just seems like a good dude who would always go out of his way to help others.

"No one's leaving Reddit" - how do we keep this momentum?
Reply in thread
That's really it. We don't need millions of people. 100k or more will do. People just need to engage and create in meaningfully like you said.
Edit: 100k truly active people. Not total users.

Third party Reddit apps just got canned.
Reply in thread
I just don't see it being viable for them. The math doesn't work once you get power users as the base for using it. Then once people realize they are missing NSFW tagged content that might be a deal breaker. This was legitimately planned by Reddit to not work on purpose.

YSK how to find the proper air pressure for your tires
Reply in thread
The pressure listed on the side of the tire is max load pressure and almost assuredly too high for the application it'll be put in. You wouldn't put a tire on that's already at its limits and all. The correct answer is to ask the tire shop. Chances are if they are the same load rating and amount of plys as what they are replacing it should be the same as the door sticker.
