Remember a few years ago when the whole Texas electrical grid crashed and a bunch of old people died?

If they are got into a situation where they are stuck and didn’t have any think happen to life support or flooding, how long could they survive down there?
What’s Reddit? /jk but Kbin is so nice. I am actually having conversations with people instead of just post that seem to exist in a weird void.
Exactly^ the phrase has no meaning anymore.
Leaving reddit has made me start looking at actual websites for content and then if I like it I bring it back here. Where in reddit everything was pretty much guaranteed to already been linked somewhere. I know if this community get big the same thing will happen. But for now I actually feel a part of the community instead of just passively experience the community.
Yessh…is this a lack of compassion or empathy. I have a feeling it’s the latter that cause the former. They can’t see past their own lives and that lead them to think anyone that needs help isn’t doing enough. Besides all that giving food for free to children shouldn’t even be a issue. Hell is shouldn’t matter rich or poor kids at school should just be feed. This program in the grand scheme wouldn’t even cost that much (as other countries have proven)
Pure cruelty. Our taxes ment to be used to help people and this means more then paving roads (which in the US isn’t done). I’m sick of this idea the government needs to cut spending but then they just cut social programs that is the whole point of having a government…
I love this and am glad I’m based on Kbin.
Lemmy is given me a bad taste so I turned off federation. Hopefully the ability to block instances will become native to Kbin soon and I can turn federation back on.
I am very excited by what Kbin is doing and is becoming. That being said ever since they opened up Lemmy and the rest of fediverse I have started to see more and more hate speech to minorities. I had hoped that those kinds of people would have stayed on Reddit but it looks like they ended up on Lemmy and now Kbin users are having to deal with it since opening up it’s gate. I am not saying Kbin should separate from the other fediverse I just think they should make it more obvious where content and post are coming from.
A few reasons I pay is we watch YouTube on your living room TV and while there are ways to block ads it is easier to just not have to worry about. Second we want to support the channels we do watch and if we can do that without ads all the better. Third it comes with YouTube music (while not the best it works fine for us)
