Sounds like you’re more loyal to your “boss” then “the boss” is to you.
I once gave my loyalty to a company. I was laid off 7 months later. Now it’s “You want my work? You’ll pay my rates or you can take your business elsewhere.”

TANSTAFL. If the load don’t pay, don’t haul it. If a job doesn’t pay enough, find another job. Or starve. Their choice.
Sounds like they are more devoted to the company in question than the company is to them.
The Teamsters seem to go on strike as.frequently as the US has a vehicle accident involving a fatality. It’s not news at this point, it’s business as usual.
As a truck driver myself, my only thought is, “Good, perhaps freight rates will go up again.” Otherwise, don’t care. What are they striking about this time? Not enough coffee in the break room? Vending machine out of Mt.Dew?
Seriously though, I’ve never (knowingly) met a Teamster who wasn’t a complete and total asshole. I am sure such a creature exists, just haven’t met them yet.
The Teamsters Union is the only Union of which I have an entirely negative view of. They make the UAW look like a bunch of really intelligent, well organized, team players.
Not familiar with the site, but it sounds like some one uploaded something directly related either to WMDs or the manufacture of drugs. Otherwise I suspect they would have used the provisions related to copyright infringement.
Knowledge related to both are publicly available, and the tech is simple enough that even a southern high schooler could build something truely nasty, but if it is too directly related…. Well, the people that do the day to day work of the government aren’t completely stupid. The best they can do, though, is try to keep the knowledge out of sight, out of mind.
Well, first thing, you should read “allow list” as “federate ONLY with these instances”. Block list is the opposite of that, “DO NOT federate with this instance “.
Try removing everything from your allow and block lists and see what happens.
Probably, though you may have to dig to find them. Lemmy is rapidly becoming like Reddit in that if something exists, there is probably a community for it. If your local search doesn’t bring anything up, I would check on lemmyverse.net. It seems to have indexed most if not all of the current communities. A quick search just now for “liberta” pulled up roughly 10 communities.
US fuel efficiency rules effectively banned them. The light duty pickups are not coming back, sadly.
Whoops! I did the title as a joke. I wonder what I goofed that caused it to become a link.
Following that link directly is giving me a server error, and it doesn’t bring anything except up in search except your comment. Is there a particular way I’m supposed to use it?

This is a post from their admin team. In short, the Mali government has taken back their domain space. Right now, for me, FMHY is kinda up, but mostly down. Nothing really works, but I can occasionally see my feed (up to date, too), and if I click on any links I get a timed out error.
Yea!!! It’s working! I can see this post from lemmy.world’s public feed. That was quick.
The only stupid question is the one you don’t ask.
First, I don’t like calling proprietary software “official”. Proprietary software is just software with closed source code. What makes something official is someone deciding “OK, this is what we are going to use” or that it definitely came from a particular source. Getting Docker directly from Docker repositories rather from a distributions repository for example.
My general take is if FOSS can do the job, I use FOSS. If FOSS can’t do the job I need, then I will go with the best proprietary solution to my problem. If I go with FOSS, I tend to prefer using the repository of the project in question rather than my distributions repository. The projects repository tends to be more up to date and there are fewer opportunities for ba actors to play with the code. Downside is that these repositories may introduce changes that may bork your OS when/if you upgrade to a newer major version. FlatPacks and AppImages help to mitigate this.
Hope that helps.
