  • It's clearly to let people die.

  • Nah a non-insignificant amount of the citizens of the country suck too.

    • American dominance is not dead, but it is changing — and not for the better

  • We can indeed hope for a multilateral system, but both Russia and China are in positions to potentially exploit the power vacuum. I actually have more faith in China being the more reasonable and safe choice between the two, but they have just as many questionable things their government does as the US does, sadly.

    The sad truth is that when there is a power vacuum, other positions of power end up vying for control of the now empty position of power.

  • As an American... Knowing our own history... Our government's predilection to installing "friendly" dictators in foreign countries to get what's best for the USA and fuck what's best for that country's citizens...

    This isn't the worst thing that could happen to the world, the real problem is the power vacuum being replaced by an even more unsavory country pulling international strings. We can only hope Europe comes out on top here.

  • Exactly, I doubt the person or persons who developed ICEBlock are getting tons of income from the project compared how much it costs to host and run the project, but the project is immediately creating a positive impact in society.

    Jump

  • and as far as I’m aware, I would probably be unable to buy a PC or console ever again.

    I don't have any suggestions but I am so, so sorry and I really hope things turn around for you for the better.

    • Firefighters and Police are socialism. Change my mind.

    Jump

  • Do firefighters and police own the means of production??

    Someone doesn't know the definition of socialism. At best these are social services.

    Also police literally have a long history of violently putting down unionization efforts despite having a union themselves.

    • Looking for work? Need a job with good pay and benefits? Have any sense of ethics? ICE is hiring and has low standards. Sign up for ICE and be the most incompetent agent in history.

    Jump

  • The problem with some of these is that once you did them you would end just being extra-judicially targeted yourself by your ICE coworkers..

    You don't want to end up like Gomer Pyle getting beaten with socks full of soap. Your coworkers will know your name and have tools to find out more info on you. Don't turn yourself into a massive target unless you're comfortable with that.

    • As Im drug away to the gulag for my incessant political speech my greatest regret will be not doing more hard drugs.

    • 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site?

  • I know you’re out there somewhere Nicole

    lmao, The Fediverse Chick!

    Jump

  • But you can't self-host it??? Blaspheme! /s

    Just kidding, nice to know there's something out there.

    There's also Duolicious which is similarly free and without ads but there was literally no one within a hundred miles of me and most of the people using it were about half my age so it felt fruitless to pursue.

    EDIT: same with Alovoa... nobody within 100 miles...

  • Plentyoffish mostly stinks but still has a free tier where you can message one person a day.

    Also, on the page where you look at people who have viewed/liked you, the photos are blurred but if you use the Web Developer Inspection Tool you can see the unblurred photo:

    Right click on one of the images of who you want to see and in the dropdown menu click "Inspect":

    The Web Developer tools will pop up and should auto-locate you to the image in question. In Firefox you can just hover over the image location and view a preview of the image. You can also right click on the image location and "Open Link in New Tab" to view it.

    From here, you can usually find them in your list of potential matches, in your "meet me" swipes, or in the recently online list. This way, if someone swipes right on you, you can find them without paying and can decide to match or message.

    Cheers and good luck!

    This is where we are at, not risk to US relations, a risk to relations with Emperor Trump.
