I don't often bring up domain blocks, but if you're running your own server, you might want to block the domain 10minutepleroma.com, the potential for spam and abuse is immense.

I was accused of "fearmongering about abuse that doesn't exist" because apparently conceptually, the precedent of disposable e-mail providers is not enough. Well, here's how I learned about this tool!

@Gargron Man, sorry that you have to deal with so much drama. Personally I understand your fears and while I might generally side with people who want to wait till a problem arises to fix it, well, the truth is I see no protections on the part of that service to be preventive at addressing the problem. If they had made some effort, any effort, to help minimize abuse I might be more likely to side with other people on this. But as it stands right now its hard for me to see how this wont be abused.

@freemo @Gargron Das schlimme wird wohl ab nächtes jahr losgehen. Wo ich Ihnen Recht geben muss Freemo die es wirklich gut meinen mit Ihren Visionen und die gut sind ,ist so einer wie Eugen und andere. Die eigentlich nichts dafür können nein im Gegenteil sie versuchen mit Ihren Ansichten etwas an dem Zustand noch zu verbessern. Da hilft in Deutschland kein Netz DG oder die DSVGO ., wenn man dann sowas hier lesen muss.

Its hard for me to understand everything you said as I relied on a translator. But I'm not sure I agree that the worst of this sort of racism and abuse is yet to come.. Don't get me wrong I dont deny its existence and am all for doing what we can to make sure racism doesn't perpetuate. but I do feel over time the racism has been decreasing not increasing, and I'd say that has been true in recent times as well.

@freemo @carrabelloy @Gargron

"Racism" has been forced out of the public eye

This has just legitimized benevolent xenophobia in the eyes of most people

@amerika @Gargron @freemo Many Germans shut up, but now it's over. Whether Brussels or Berlin. Even the Dutch don't want this lobbyist stronghold in Brussels. Because the western countries like Holland Belgium Germany Austria, which no longer want it that way, destroy land and hardly have any money to stay alive and taxes are getting higher and higher. How long do you believe a people that still participates. Immigration to our country is enough.

@carrabelloy @Gargron @freemo

People need to start saying the magic words, "diversity doesn't work."

It's not about WHO the diversity is, but the fact of diversity itself.

I write about this a lot. It's a fascinating distinction that opens a whole world of thought.
@amerika @carrabelloy @Gargron @freemo

Diversity is our strength, man!

If it wasn't for diversity, I would have to fly to Lebanon to enjoy my shawarma.

Diversity is awesome, bro!

@Prodigal @amerika @Gargron @freemo wenn das dein einziges Problem ist der Dönner. Leider hat oder sollte Vielfalt Grenzen haben. Denn warum gibt es so viele Kulturen. Bestimmt nicht, wenn man alle versucht zusammen zu bringen. Das ist mir zu viel, wenn dafür ein ganzes Land zerstört wird. Es muss eine Erkenntlichkeit eines Landes sein. Ich kann auch nicht mit 3 Millionen Deutschen dort ein ganzes Land ändern und sagen, wenn wir da sind, Schweinefleisch Kirche muss in dem Libanon sein.

@amerika @Gargron @carrabelloy @freemo

My german sucks forgot lots from my college intro course.

Great language, no need to use it outside of a classroom though.

I should visit the Goethe institute some time.

@Prodigal

Me too. Thats the problem with learning most languages, unless your goal is to talk to random grandparents who are undereducated, or perhaps live somewhere, there isnt really much use for it. Most native speakers are probably more comfortable speaking english than your half-assed attempt at their language too.

Really from a functional standpoint if you know mandarin chinese and english you pretty much know everything you need to know.
