That’s fair enough. I haven’t blocked hexbear or lemmygrad as it’s kind of entertaining from a morbid sense. But lemmy.ml tries to masquerade as a generic leftist instance but has insane admins and moderators who have absolutely no interest in having other people’s views on their their instance.
They’re tankies, they’re pro-Russia, pro-China (to a bootlicking degree) and pro North Korea. Basically anything anti US/west.
They’ve been slurping up Russian propaganda and try and argue that the pro-EU demonstrations in Ukraine in 2014 was some kind of CIA op (because the notion to them that people would willingly choose western ideals is inconceivable) and that Ukraine is full of Nazis and Russia are the good guys defeating Nazis.
I’d strongly avoid blocking the Lemmy.ml instance in your settings. Hexbear and lemmygrad are also similar instances to avoid.
@WestBromwich@feddit.uk did you even know you’d been banned due to this comment?
In their defence why would you expect them to know about the political stance of the devs?
There was a bit of luck involved but given the pace he had, he probably would have won anyway.
Absolute masterclass from Max. Was just leagues above everyone else.
Why does it seem like Norris keeps waiting so long to put a lap in?
Yeah, it was really noticeable when the clocks changed last weekend. Can’t wait for the lighter evenings again!
I hate winter, but not because of the climate (we get a couple of days if snow at best), but because it’s just constantly dark. It’s incredibly depressing. It’s already getting dark by 16:30 now.
“where one man… And one goat…”
People will be toxic no matter what. I don’t think making prospective new users feel unwelcome is a good idea when we’d like to see some growth.
It’s a noble goal don’t get me wrong, but cars are just way too convenient to get rid of for most that don’t live in the central zones of cities. Just things like taking your kid to their swimming lessons, evening activities, going to the tip and garden centre and dropping off at your parents en route, visiting friends that are several villages away, kids birthday party and then going to the supermarket after to pick up some food etc.
Something I’ve noticed is that people on Lemmy never seem to advocate for busses, it’s always trains.
As much as people on Lemmy love trains, they’re not replacing cars no matter how good the infrastructure is.
That’s good to know! I had it do my first interval workout today which was nice.
Yeah I recently read about the 80% thing too. It’s difficult not to just go a bit faster just because you know you can! Although I do like that the watch “tells you off” for going too fast when using the workout which is nice.
When you say overtraining, how much were you doing? I see some people running every day and I have no idea how they’re doing it, I try to stick to 3 runs a week, 4 at most, with a day off in between.
Just seen the context in the post description, hadn’t spotted that at first.
What’s the context here?
Edit: am smooth brained idiot - context is on the post description
Yeah I agree. Toro Rosso just sounds cool and distinctive. AlphaTauri was a bit meh and was too confusing with also having Alfa Romeo. But I guess the name is created by marketeers.
Interestingly the opposite reason is why I’ve ignored them until now - it would suggest runs at a pace that were below what I’d normally run at so, and I just didn’t want to run that “slow”. However, I think they may be for my benefit to perhaps slow down a bit and also follow the interval training. So I dunno if I’m just wasting my time with it or what!
