Negative reactions to capsaicin generally only happen when people who are unused to spicy foods ingest something too spicy for their level of tolerance. So yes, this is Denmark "not being able to handle spicy food". The problem here is probably people with zero tolerance trying to eat it as a 'challenge'.

“You do not call for peace and then come to a memorial site,”

Fuck off Pepe Frogface. If the Palestinians could have lived in peace none of this would ever have happened.

This would be news if it were current. At 2 years old it's just clickbait

I wouldn't be surprised either, but you made it sound like things are a lot more clear cut than they actually are.

full knowledge of the shit they were about to be thrown into

I mostly agree with you, but is there a single military in history that didn't mostly rely on naive kids with zero knowledge of what they were getting themselves into?

Kaspersky also has a bunch of US-based subsidiaries or partners they're selling their software through. Or Apple could have just escrowed their reward until the embargo was over.

As per Wikipedia:

The UN noted that there had been arrests of homosexuals within the past three years in 2018, 2019 and 2022.

So it's not like LGBT issues were much better under Imran Khan either.

I guess stripes would be an easy place to start

Welcome to the black tape project

Yeah, 3rd party links are a tougher nut to crack. You'd think they could at least fix the local links, though.

I can think of a few potential solutions, but they'd all require a lot of user opt in and centralisation, which makes it unlikely to ever happen.

Can we trade relatives?

Ah, they issued a final warning!

Damn those libs, fighting for the right to live and love!

Would any of your tech-handicapped relatives actually pay it any attention, though?

Unless your chargers are generating a noticeable amount of heat (and they shouldn't be), the amount of electricity they are using is simply negligible. Electricity cannot simply evaporate into thin air.

You're missing the point. You should never leave your home instance. Lemmy could automatically remap links to whatever your home instance is before you ever click on them.

I'm interested in the list of countries you WOULD prefer to die in

Your hate speech is somebody else's Overton window

While I like their comment, YouTube videos are not a 'source'

If 50, 75, or 90% of users on an instance block a community, would that hinder moderation to catch instances of misinformation that did pop up? (I'm just asking as some have raised that as a concern, and I don't know if that's legitimate or not)

Here's a test somebody performed on Reddit. While not 100% the same mechanics, it illustrates how lack of opposition affects how a post is perceived.

The problem isn't about moderation, the problem is with moving the Overton window, as neutral parties start seeing a lack of viewpoints from one side of the discussion, and viewpoints from the other side getting upvoted and significantly more visibility.

They did learn, how else are they doing this good a job?
