Moderating

"Activist" is a bit grandiose. I might go with "far-right conspiracist and video prankster Laura Loomer"

Cool, money is more important than freedom anyway./s

Thanks! I must have missed that one.

The rules of the !News community are enforced with the best consistency we can manage. I do not make moderation decisions based on my personal beliefs, but the beauty of federation is that there are many news communities to follow and contribute to if you don't approve of moderation decisions.

I have never defended torture of any kind, but feel free to link any comments that I have made if you need clarification.

Lastly, if someone who often supports Israel says this is particularly bad, what does that tell you?

If it is open source and on-device (for personal recommendations) then I see it as a great thing.

Lemmy has demonstrated that it can really work. Quiblr even has personalized recommendations on-device (not open source though and it's now open source).

Mastodon and others should take note.

Surprising that Texas is not on the list.

I assume it's a technicality.

This is a particularly disturbing escalation of rhetoric. For those who don't know, these types of statements have until now come from far-right leaders propping up the government. This is from Netanyahu's own party, which he controls with pretty much total authority.

Not a timelapse, but still pretty adorable.

By the same argument, owning physical things is an unnatural state. For millennia, the idea of a human being owning a physical object was completely foreign.

People made tools and used them as necessary, then discarded them for another person to use. It's only in the most recent 5% of human existence that private property had existed.

Mastodon is much better and resistant to enshittification. Bluesky is not federated or decentralized.

So what is that, like 6 or 7 people?

Forget about the abject inhumanity of this. Title X is one of the best financial deals for the government and the American public.

By paying for healthcare for the poor, particularly poor women, society earns back dividends many times over. For every $1 we spend on Title X, we save $7 in future government expenses. This decision will cost us billions.

People are deluded or pretending that he didn't bring up Soros for this very specific reason.

Seems right on to me

The only problem with turning to a profit model is the potential for enshitification.

I'm a little skeptical about the "10 years of absolute secrecy"... It sounds a lot like "we can't tell you how it works, just trust us bro."

This is an extremely dark option. Creating 2 million refugees in Africa, Europe, or elsewhere in the Middle East is patently bad for the people, bad for the world, and bad for Israel. Literally no upside for anyone (except for real estate developers).

TIL!

Isn't any airport in Luxembourg by definition an international airport?

Are there local flights that fly from one side of Luxembourg to the other?

Chewy dog food will send you flowers and a refund if you pet died.
