  • Done! Never did before, but I guess the headline had the right effect.

  • That's most likely the first one:

    The Dirty Dozen: How Twelve Supreme Court Cases Radically Expanded Government and Eroded Freedom

    and he liked what he read

  • But they were FUMING!

    Fucking clickbait everywhere.

  • From the article:

    The Commission found that Israeli Security Forces killed 183 of these protesters with live ammunition. Thirty-five of these fatalities were children, while three were clearly marked paramedics, and two were clearly marked journalists.

  • MOM!

    Jump
  • In Germany those are often called peperoni or peperoncino

  • Me washing $200 worth of groceries in 2023

  • The lemmygrad and hexbear mods getting paid, how capitalistic of them.

  • I'm supposed to be getting Linux tips from this guy?

    No, this is Linus Sex Tips not Linux Tech Tips!

  • They belong(ed) to the german royal house "Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha" and changed their name to "Windsor" after WW1 to not be affiliated with germany anymore. I don't know if that's enough to call them foreign though.

  • Ireland is probably is a nice country to live in, but it's pretty ironic recommending it to someone wanting to come to the EU because of its regulations on big companies.

    Ireland costs other countries 16bn a year by allowing those companies to evade taxes in the EU.

  • Opinion of one of the admins regarding hexbear, just so you guys know where they stand:

    In my view, the hexbear community is actually a positive force on this platform. They are frequently abrasive, but they ultimately have the potential to contribute to what we are building here. They are extremely active and some of them are quite intelligent. But they've also become accustomed to a privileged position on their own walled-in platform, and they need to be reminded that their views are considered ver extreme by the average person.

  • Valid opinion and immutable distros like silverblue might be where the future is headed.

    It's not the point though, I'm not going with a distro that tries to force their proprietary solution on me.

  • Looks like he took the letters off and put them back on. Originally the lettering has a way tighter spacing.

  • I'm not from lemm.ee, but I believe that this problem is something the whole fediverse is facing.

    Users from instances like hexbear, lemmygrad, exploding heads etc. seem to have some things in common: -Brigading -Trolling -Spreading misinformation/lies about genocides, wars, etc. -Demanding to be heard because of free speech and "tolerance" -When they face resistance, they get aggressive and you better believe that the comments going against their narrative are getting deleted on their instance

    They are using lemmy to spread their propaganda and hate. This is exactly how propaganda is effective: spew the same bullshit as often as possible and, because humans tend to believe things to be true that they see or read a lot, radicalize users through it. Of course that doesn't count for every person on that instance but in the end it doesn't matter if a user is an edgy teenager, a radicalized senior or someone with hundred accounts. They are doing damage and the only way to win against them is to not let them into the playground.

  • Sexual harassment allegations are not "drama". And anyways, the comparison is in the way they apologize and not the damage they have done.
