Perfect pets or dangerous dogs? The sudden, surprising rise of American bully XLs
  • I love dogs of all breeds and sizes and I'm sure most of the time these are fine to be around. But this breed literally only exists to circumvent the exists banned breeds laws so I don't understand why the list can't be updated to include them.

    State pensions to cost more than education, policing and defence combined
  • That's because you're technically not paying for your own pension. You pay for the current pension then the next generation will pay for yours.

    Whole thing needs an overhaul but I wouldn't trust any of them to do it correctly

    When you notice Lemmy is quieter than usual, then have a look at the Lemmy.world status
  • It was always going to happen but an instance being the defacto default for Lemmy is a bad thing.

    There really needs to be a tool to help people pick an instance, but even then people would just flock to the general instances like .world anyway

    Alan Davies twitter account is being used to beg for bitcoin.
  • Nope but the general use is going to be overwhelmed by the idea of instances.

    I'm a techie and I had to spend a good amount of time reading about how it all works before I felt comfortable joining here. So the average user would probably just give up and use something else.

    The email comparison is definitely the best one I've seen so far but I still don't think it'll stick with people.

    Online Safety Bill: Algorithms that lead boys to Andrew Tate content targeted
  • It's not even just boys I have old school friends, now in late 20s, who were completely decent young lads sharing his stuff.

    Unfortunately I don't think Tate is the cause, just a symptom. We need to tackle the lack of healthy male empowerment because boys need role models and right now these kind of guys are the ones filling that void.

  • Car has been bad but he's still not really shown much and it's not like he's a young rookie either. So kind of understandable.

    Was never a fan but a shame he didn't get a chance to finish his rookie season.
