Someone does this in a group chat I’m in, it drives me crazy.

Soup served in a bowl.
Who would want to consume a warm smoothie slowly with a spoon?
Usually yeah. Unless it’s something like trying to break a server or posting CP. People can do stupid things if they’re having a bad day, mental health issues, etc.
Old forums usually had a system where you only got banned if you got a certain number of warnings within a certain time period. That usually worked well.
People are incredibly ban happy on Reddit, I got banned from the JimmyDore sub Reddit despite never visiting it, I don’t even know who Jimmy Dore is.
I’ve volunteered for a few charity shops (UK version of a thrift store) in the past, the weirdest thing was the trash people would “donate”, like used diapers.
Self hosted instances are artificially limited to 10 accounts, however https://docs.bsky.app/blog/self-host-federation
And that’s only the frontend “server” that can be self hosted, the “relay”, that’s more equivalent to a mastodon instance, doesn’t seem to be self hostable.
The term isn’t quite as specific as you want, but it sounds like a positive feedback loop? (the linked article even gives ponzi schemes as an example)
Even if they have the ability to build one, and do so without Russia turning the facility where they’re building it into rubble with hypersonic missiles, they would need dozens to have full MAD type protection.
Does Ukraine even have a missile system capable of carrying that kind of payload as far as Moscow?
“don’t worry about it being perfect” and “stop being so self critical”
This election was crazier than the last election. On the other hand it will be less crazy than the next election.
Eugene Debs ran for president while in federal prison for sedition, so it’s not really unprecedented.
So you didn’t vote for anyone for president?
I’m not American, if I was I would have voted for Stein though.
Not voting for someone who is aiding and abetting genocide is morally correct, it’s not complicated.
If genocide isn’t a red line for you, what is?
Need more capacity for all the liberal tears?
The way people get so emotionally invested into it.
Octopodes no longer die when they give birth, meaning they can teach their young and form societies.
But the SC should never decide the president in a Democracy
That already happened in Bush v. Gore
To give you an actual answer
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_threat
The true threat doctrine was established in the 1969 Supreme Court case Watts v. United States.[3] In that case, an eighteen-year-old male was convicted in a Washington, D.C. District Court for violating a statute prohibiting persons from knowingly and willfully making threats to harm or kill the President of the United States.[3]
The conviction was based on a statement made by Watts, in which he said, “[i]f they ever make me carry a rifle the first man I want to get in my sights is L.B.J.”[3] Watts appealed, leading to the Supreme Court finding the statute constitutional on its face, but reversing the conviction of Watts.
In reviewing the lower court’s analysis of the case, the Court noted that “a threat must be distinguished from what is constitutionally protected speech.”[3] The Court recognized that “uninhibited, robust, and wide open” political debate can at times be characterized by “vehement, caustic, and sometimes unpleasantly sharp attacks on government and public officials.” In light of the context of Watts’ statement - and the laughter that it received from the crowd - the Court found that it was more “a kind of very crude offensive method of stating a political opposition to the President” than a “true threat.”[3]
I stole it from Babylon 5, but “assassin of joy” is one I’ve used a few times
I loathe that.
