    That seems like instance admins are too powerful. This is just a guess, but each community probably has a home instance. That instance's admin could then ban the community or ban people from joining / interacting with that community, even if they're on another instance.

    Likely the issue comes from everyone (users and communities) piling onto lemmy.ml.

    That said, it has been a frequent complaint that #Fediverse admins have too much power. Networks like #Nostr attempt to remove or dilute such power.

    This was a few years ago, but it makes me wonder whether this recruiting tactic also increased the number of sexual harassment cases. Assuming, of course, that #Kazakhstan bans such behavior.

    @clacke I've honestly never seen 'biannual' except in situations where it was clear they meant to say / write 'biennial'. I do not think it is commonly used.

    But I can agree that it could be used for both meanings.

    @clacke I know that semiannual is once every half year, so if I think of that, then I can figure out that biennial is once every two years. But I agree. There should be no need for such gymnastics.

    Site claims (I have not tried to confirm) that #BankOfAmerica voluntarily turned over customer transactions to the #FBI without a warrant. They were investigating the 2021-Jan-06 insurrection.

    I'm not in favor of banks (which should be considered fiduciaries for their customers) turning over customer information except in very strictly defined circumstances, even though I am one who would have grabbed a gun and gone to defend the nation against its "foes foreign and domestic" that were attempting to overthrow the government.

    In this case, a subpoena should have been easy to get if they narrowed the scope, so #BofA (and other banks) should have required it.

    The high school kid at the then-current workplace loved this song. Sang it constantly.

    He also called everyone "ma'am". When someone objected, he'd say it is a sign of respect. Everybody liked Matt, so he got away with it.

    Last I heard, he moved to Atlanta and bought a giant pickup truck.

    @simsa04 No. When I started listening to music that I chose instead of my parents choosing, the Beatles were already broken up, so I jadn't actively listened until high school. The Rolling Stones did https://youtu.be/JGaBlygm0UY which caused me to seek them out on my own.

    Most of my group in high school were #Beatles fans, so I picked up an appreciation. There were many songs I already knew and liked. https://youtu.be/CTsB-llTzyc "Help" for example.

    "I Am The Eggman" was my least favorite, and they would chase me aroind campus singing it.

    Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. I like the Elton John version, while pretty closely inspired by the Beatles version, better than the original.

    I tried to make my weekly call to #A1, and for the third week in a row, his phone is out of service. I'd offer to take over paying for his service, but things are really tight right now.

    @tobias I will check. I had to manually upgrade last time, so I may have used 'stable'.
