I’ve added you as a mod to c/gaming. I left Hurts on as he’s one of our Top Mods and I’m not sure of his status at the moment. Good luck and thanks for volunteering!

Of course, I think OP just saw the taglines that referenced it and wasn’t aware of the actual community posts. I’m one of the leads of the Community Team, so could, naturally, tell you more, haha. Thanks for subbing!

Hey there, Community Spotlight is a community and weekly post, that we feature, for communities that we find interesting and want to highlight. Every week, we highlight a LW as well as a Fediverse community. You can submit your suggested community by commenting on any Weekly Spotlight post or contacting the Community Team.

I’m in agreement with most said here. Users of other instances wouldn’t know of our TOS and rules generally. But also, our TOS is for access to “the website” i.e. lemmy.world. Users on other instances are not using this website, technically. They are accessing information originated here. It’s a complicated situation because of the nature of federation.

Personally, I would try to manage LW users specifically when it comes to age restrictions as those are the ones who agreed to our TOS and age requirement. So basically, if a LW user is known to be under 18, take action, and if a user from another instance openly says they are under 18, then take action. Explanation is up to you.

I’d say, unless the “other account” directly and openly states that Lemmy account XYZ is definitely theirs, and someone else directly reports it to you, I wouldn’t worry about what they might or might not do on other instances. You’re only responsible for for own community, not for the entirety of the Fediverse.

Yes, love this explanation.

…but again: polite warning and explanation first, always. Explain instead of punish, because they might not be aware that they even did something wrong. Give them the chance to fix their mistakes first, and only take action if they’re unwilling to do that.

And this is most situations in general, not just age issues.

I have a mix of wifi and POE cameras and they all work for me.

Can vouch for this. Been using a bunch of Reolink cameras with BI for years. Be careful with Reolink, though. Some cameras work fine and some don’t at all, unless you use some middleman software, which is still hit or miss. Ran into this recently with a camera I got for my garage.

Edit: The Reolink Lumus line is NOT compatible. They don’t broadcast rtsp.

I use it all the time. Only issue I have is it sometimes keeps my phone screen on.

People just love to have a reason to hate. Just like when COVID started and Asians were getting attacked all over despite having zero connection to China.

MOVE - Dogfight! still gets me hype to this day

These days I skip all, self-promotion and in-video sponsors included.

Sounds like you probably use it but if not, get the SponsorBlock extension to do exactly this.

I really think it’s a texture thing for me. But I also don’t really get a lot of flavor when I eat soggy carrots. It just taste like mush to me. Roasting them really brings out the flavor for me as well as gives it a nice texture. Slightly burnt is so good. I love raw carrots as well.

That definitely may have been the issue too. I was in the southern US at the time in a heavily Christian town too.

That sounds reasonable. When I tried it they put a lot of focus on the higher power stuff, but I imagine a lot depends on what group you’re in too.

If you’re just a social drinker I don’t think you’d benefit from AA anyway. It’s more for people who have a serious problem, not just a bad social habit

Oh, I wasn’t just a social drinker, I mean I only drank socially, never alone, but I could never stop. I would go out every night and drink til 6am and get belligerent. I’ve been sober for a long time now so I don’t need help. I was just talking about my AA experience years ago.

I still couldn’t do AA because even though it’s not “religion” they still push the higher power stuff. That it’s bigger than you and stuff. I never liked that because it takes the responsibility away from the person. To me, it’s both. It can be a disease that you have trouble controlling while also, you have to take responsibility and learn to manage it. For me I just had to stop and avoid going to bars and stuff. But I was also a social drinker, never drank alone so staying away helped me a lot. Of course others may be different.

Can’t stand soggy carrots. I can eat them in soup, but it’s not my favorite. I much prefer roasted or stir fried. Actually most veggies, I prefer that way.

It’s not just transactions. $600 is the lower limit on taxable income. I used to do food delivery and if you make under $600 for the year it’s not reported and not taxable. You’re supposed to report any income over $600.

Yep, exactly. It’s such a hack, easy joke to make and I almost find that more offensive than the racism.

There was a guy I worked with in the military named Robert Roberts. Everyone called him Bob Bob.
