  • A large property in the woods with a river running through it. I can literally setup my own mini power generation source if the stream is powerful enough. So I get to at least be partly off-grid.

  • Both of those facts can exist at the same time. I believe I am partly banned from some Subs if only because I disagreed with the Reddit Hivemind and the Mods crazy power trips.

    Lemmy is 1000% more open minded.

  • Aside what the other poster said, which I agree with, I think there is also an increasing dislike of Google in general, that may be feeding the undercurrent of the hate you see.

  • They didn't capitulate. They were mostly faking it all along, friend. It made for good profit at the time and to get good Blackrock or Vanguard investment money. This is why despite putting rainbows in X, or FB, or YT, or LinkedIn profiles in the USA or in some Western countries, no company ever did that in any profile outside the West. It was all for show... and money. If they actually believe it they would have done so across the board. Yet they didn't. They were just hoping most people wouldn't notice. Many did. There was a meme RE: this floating around from years ago, too.

  • He said it was an affront to life itself.

  • Not same as OP, but the reason why I do not use Github is because I do not want my data on what is essentially a Microsoft service. Especially, if I already self-host other services.

    Although, I am aware not everyone can afford or wants to self-host, yet in my use case, it was just a matter of just installing NC on an already existing setup.

  • Tried doing this and albeit it works, I ended up going back to the NC Notes app, which granted, is not as good as Obsidian.

  • Although you are correct, this is no different than most Democrats, as well. I mean the Dems spent $10 million paying influencers on TikTok to vote for them. https://www.youtube.com/embed/JytdxpsJdLQ

    Also, to be fair, a large chunk of minorities, larger than last election's, also voted for Trump. So take it easy there on the race blaming, unless you want to blame minorities, as well.

    Edit: Wow, lots of people in denial, I see.

  • Literally our metabolic system. You eat materials like minerals that are dead and your body absorbs them and turns those into a part of you.

  • That's the neat part, you don't.

  • I think they think most users are absolutely stupid. I have rooted my phones for far over a decade and never have exploded my own phone or deleted something I absolutely needed in the OS. Sometimes, their absolutist mentality crosses into fear mongering.

  • You are right. But some people literally do take Marx's words as Dogma. I met a few IRL.

  • How are they lies? Honestly asking. What facts can you put forth?

    I can see SK being late to the game of polling in this context. They were culturally more Conservative and no major changes happened until after about the 2010's. Once more of the West's culture began bleeding into theirs thanks to the Internet which them bled back into ours.

    UK and Germany are likely to have longer polls. Plus, they do not vote like the USA. UK is pretty Right wing comperatively speaking, and Germany has been pretty Left leaning for 20+ years. As I follow their politics.

    I think it could be perceived as vague since the charts lack the above cultural reference points so albeit the changes are likely correct, their actual starting points are likely different and relative to themselves over being a 1:1 absolute to all. We would have to see the methology of how they did the polls. But the trends are likely correct.

    As far as the USA, looking at the last election results by demographic seems to track with the USA chart. Specially among minorities.

  • In my experience, if the show has nothing going after say 2-3 episodes, at most, then why bother?

    Starting slow and being bad are not the same. Breaking Bad was good from the get go. Even if it was not as good as later seasons. Most great shows start well and get better. Few are terrible and magically doe a 180° in a couple of 1st Season episodes.

  • Or eating random, wild mushrooms.
