365 and G Suite educational licenses are significantly cheaper than running Exchange. Almost everywhere switched over years ago.

Depends on how Americanized you are and how racist your area is.

I'm not a tax attorney, but generally it's recommended that business and personal expenses and equipment be separated. If it's combined, I think in some cases you can claim by percentage, like home offices can be claimed by square footage. If you get audited, you'll have to prove its primary purpose and usage is business.

Why don't they just close the channel instead of changing it to porn?

Step one is have a relevant business, otherwise this is just tax fraud.

I prefer power efficiency over plain power in somewhat similiar products.

The 144400 should be the obvious choice by your descriptions.

It's not just you, but it's also not most DMs. TTRPGs are collaborative storytelling. Books are single-author and have a consistent plot (generally, anyway).

It's a medium-term hype thing. But worth is a subjective decision that only you can make, depending on how much you're willing to spend and how much you want to do VR things.

I would never recommend the Facebook-owned ones though.

They absolutely won't have better reach. Mastodon is significantly smaller than both Twitter and Bluesky.

If you tap that link in Boost it'll probably crash, so don't do it unless you're okay with that.

I'm guessing the problem is that the post URL is a magnet link.

Edit: oh yeah, to work around, you'll have to open it in a browser and hide it.

 

I got banned earlier today with the message "rule 1", no other information about why, or which comment broke the rule. As far as I can tell it was this one, which just says "We want the bot gone. That’s it. It’s really that simple."

So I checked the modlog for other bans, and @aniki@lemmings.world was banned today as well, also just for "rule 1", probably either for the comment saying "a stupid bot writing useless bullshit" or "This is what you call "Not listening to criticism."", neither of which are an attack on any person.

(Also earlier today @MindTraveller@lemmy.ca was banned with the message "fuck off", which I'm pretty sure is not a reason to ban someone from a major community, but doesn't appear to be related to the MBFC bot.)

One more today, @stormesp@lemm.ee was banned, again just "rule 1", last comment being this one, again not an attack on any person.

So what's the deal here? I couldn't find any rules for mods on lemmy.world with a brief poke around, but are we letting mods run major communities like little fiefdoms, banning people for criticism?
