c/libertariansocialism@sh.itjust.works: Libertarian Socialism

Libertarian Socialism is a political philosophy that blends the principles of individual freedom with social and economic equality.

Libertarian Socialism shares some principles with libertarianism, particularly the emphasis on individual freedom, voluntary cooperation, and opposition to authoritarianism.

However, it diverges sharply on economic views: libertarian socialism opposes unregulated capitalism and private ownership of the means of production, advocating instead for collective ownership and economic equality.

c/dull_mens_club@lemmy.world: Dull Men's Club

A facsimile of the popular Facebook group of the same name, but in no way affiliated.

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

**6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

c/cartoonimals@lemm.ee: Cartoonimals

(Only read if you like fun and exciting ideas!)

Welcome, everyone, to the revealing of a brand new fandom idea that I am proud to present: The Cartoonimals! These cartoonish rubber hose characters are part human and animal, and just love to play all day, and want YOU to become a Cartoonimal too!

But, you’re probably thinking… “What is a Cartoonimal”? Well, fellow reader, I’m glad you asked! A Cartoonimal is a 193’s rubber hose and pie eyes style animal that is zany, wacky, cooky, and is full of satire and funny animals that like to just have a great time! And the best part? The Cartoonimals are for everyone of ALL ages to enjoy!

Not only that, but there is no one “theme” to this particular fandom! In this fandom, any Cartoonimal can be anything that your heart desires! This is for the sci-fi lovers, the anime adventurers, and the explorers of finding their place in the world! So please, give Cartoonimals a chance today!

  • Kenji Yukanna, the creator of the Cartoonimals fandom!

c/nushell@programming.dev: Nushell

What is Nushell?

Nushell is a powerful shell and scripting language with strong typing, querying, and piping functionalities.

From the official documentation; Introduction:

The goal of this project is to take the Unix philosophy of shells, where pipes connect simple commands together, and bring it to the modern style of development. Thus, rather than being either a shell, or a programming language, Nushell connects both by bringing a rich programming language and a full-featured shell together into one package.

Nu takes cues from a lot of familiar territory: traditional shells like bash, object based shells like PowerShell, gradually typed languages like TypeScript, functional programming, systems programming, and more. But rather than trying to be a jack of all trades, Nu focuses its energy on doing a few things well:

  • Being a flexible cross-platform shell with a modern feel
  • Solving problems as a modern programming language that works with the structure of your data
  • Giving clear error messages and clean IDE support

Examples
