  • Wanting someone who killed in desparation in well-known and very extenuous circumstances a lighter punishment in no way condones the crime.

    Many think the justice system should prioritize rehabilitation, not retribution.

    Instead of fixing people, retribution just breaks them even further, making it more likely they’ll commit a crime in the future, oftentimes because they’re forced to by circumstances they find themselves in when (if) they’re finally set free.


  • Lemmy isn’t a single website like reddit.com is. It’s rather a collection of decentralised servers (“instances”) offering the same service (one very similar to reddit). It’s often compared to e-mail - just as Gmail users can talk to Outlook users, lemmy.world users can post and comment on lemmy.ml from their home instance.

    What this does is it removes the centralised aspects of Reddit - if a community has powertripping mods one can make an alternate community (like on Reddit). But this goes a step above - powertripping server admins can be reigned in by simply switching instances.









  • Ironically, even if OP missed the point, the apps pictured are resource hogs and all of them don’t need to run on starup other than Defender.

    Sure, leave OneDrive/Dropbox on if you use it. Leave Spotify if you just need your music to start blasting the second you reach the desktop. If opening Steam and waiting ~30 seconds for the lord Gaben-given daily update is too much of a problem let it do its thing on startup, but who in their right mind needs Soptify, OneNote and all the gaming clients slowing down startup of literally everything?

    And CCleaner, McAffee and Adobe can go fuck themselves along wirh Nestle.
