Hey, in the modern age, “anything I don’t like” is extremism!
Welcome to lemmy culture! Actually I have no idea either so we’ll learn this together!
A guillotine is also an option.
I’ve had nothing but good experiences with hexbear in my lemmy history, I think, but then again I value more the communities than the users, and thus I prefer instances that won’t arbitrarily keep me from getting good content from elsewhere. I tend to not track where a user is in the Fediverse - every internet dog is free to create accounts anywhere, anyway.
But… comparatively speaking, lg.ml seems to have little if anything to offer in comparison. The “tinted left” stuff that I care about can be more easily found in l.ml anyway.
I’d say give it a two weeks trial. A full month might be a bit too much, both for the people pro and con.
Net positive from every angle.
Besides the obvious issue with “minimum date” that big corpo would just litigate to be able to set the minimum date as “tomorrow” or something to that effect, there are a number of small (for the most part) issues that stem from your assumption that “games cannot be unique in how it offers/forbids live-service games”.
Not to mention: operationally speaking, numero 2 and numero 3 are just the same from a consumer perspective anyway. You get a game, that you pay for, and regardless of how well you pay (or not) or your satisfaction with the game (or not), it can be rescinded from you at any time. A “minimum time” does not really change things because just like for things like gyms, which you mention, the provision is not a mutual establishment. One of the parties (the provider) can rescind that deal at any given time within that minimum - maybe the gym does not like your moustache, or they found a client that pays triple what you pay for the given locker.
For numero 2 to function differently and to be felt differently from a consumer perspective, IMO, it has to meet us in the middle through the same path numero 1 does: payment has to be one-time-only. After yo’ve paid for the acquisition, you get access to the legally promised product for the duration, and after that time, there is no obligation nor provision for either party to care about the transaction having taken place. This would also cover that once the duration is over, you would be able to legally hack into the thingy continue usage by yourself if, for any reason, the corpo failed their mandate to hand over service to the public. In this model, the payment being one-time-only creates an initial balance with the duration of the “first-party” service, since the provider knows after that deadline is over thet can’t hit you for piracy, the more if it was their fault.
It’s not new, it’s not unique, it’s not legally enforceable.
You think these people are going to wake up? At this point they are probably still saying that it is okay to suffer “God’s wrath” if it is to own the libs. Some idiot on the news a few weeks back was joyful that his wife had been deported and was praising Taco for “what must be done”.
These people live in a bubble, and the only road forward as a net benefit to society is to apply guillotines before their social darwinism takes us down with them.
No no no there’s a large difference, it’s “round up all the bad people who cause lasting harm, let them die, and then everything will be better!”. Like it or not, you can not measure good with the same stick as you can measure evil. Not when the systems we’ve built in do favour "evil as default (and worse, up to some point, so do the rules of physics).
Are they stupid or evil? Hard to tell these days.
At scale, or in capitalism, there is no difference.

betcha you didn’t see that coming, bitch.
I’m feeling patriotic enough to burn US flags and I’m not even from the US!
The app is only available on iOS,
I feel like the kind of people who are on the Apple walled garden, are the kind of people who like ICE to begin with.
Has both a piracy and a privacy community, which is nice and probably leads to fun mishaps / mistypings. It’s pretty lean to federate to and fro as well, same with the UI.
Just about the only negative I can consider is their position pro AI, but I can live with that, the world is pretty close to the end anyway.
You could always keep it open for internal usage, or offer it as a backup for when Cloudflare oopsies the internet or smth. It’s how we did the meeting that should have been an email at where I work, the day Clownstrike hit.
As a former lemmeezen, RIP, F, it was a good trip, quite decent service, but now it’s time to spread out.
db0 is being nice so far, and I even got an account on my country’s lemmy.
Jitsi.
I like how you term things!
