  • Pretty sure the anti steam power or electricity people were too.

    I’m a strange bugger, I like to hear both sides of an argument and especially the corner cases. That never seems to happen anymore.

    “I don’t agree with you.”
    “Your cancelled.”

    Yeah. Most of it is ranting but very occasionally someone says something interesting or someone from the pro- side makes something known that isn’t very pro- (copyright breaches etc).





  • I don’t yet, but it’s getting closer.

    One reason is on me. I should choose a different instance because mine is the other side of the world from me! Different vibe. I probably haven’t moved because I enjoy experiencing local views which oppose and align with my own. Conversely, In the community context, I follow “fuck_ai” and some of the pro-AI communities because it’s important to me to see both sides of this revolution develop.

    The second is that quite a few of the Reddit communities have limited Lemmy presence with significant momentum. That will hopefully change with time and other platforms willing.

    On the flip side, I’ve found that there are many communities which have momentum which I joined on Lemmy for fun that I haven’t investigated as to whether they exist in Reddit. My interests are eclectic and transient sometimes. Perhaps my sense of wonder will wilt one day (that alliteration sounded better in my head; damn!).




  • How many of those other countries modelled their constitutions on the British?

    Why are you so focused on the job for life rather than the job that they (used to) do of rejecting ridiculous bills and clauses?

    These days the Lords and HoC don’t carry out their functions but not for the reasons that you suggest. It’s filled with useless fill-yer-boots cronies top to bottom, like that Bra woman and her PPI company or that twenty two year old that Boris elevated for no obvious reason or because she was a puppet.

    I had qualifications in both LSE and the NYSE. I can tell you a normal person wasn’t handicapped by the regulations in the US. However, with freedom does come responsibility for one’s actions.
