Big difference being that Twitter uses Java, Scala, etc. Twitter used to use RoR also and it went down literally every day. I'm talking 2012 or so I think, bad memory haver here.

Re:Twitter is limiting Mastodon Twitter Crossposter on Saturday December 03, 2022 @06:19AM (#33842636)

I'm interested, do you happen to know what it is?

Is there any legal mechanism to do something like this?

All he's saying is that Hungary is a conservative country and if Orban didn't exist there would be another Orban. That is if you see conservatism as a societal disease which seems to be the case here in HN

If you make it dischargeable can't you just declare bankruptcy as soon as you leave college since you won't have a job or assets?
Does it really generate the text like that, little by little, or is that just a needless animation?

He insulted my ancestors, which includes direct family members, some of which went through a civil war to build my country the way it is, and they are still alive today. I have a right to reply.

You are a self-loathing, little person.
