hmm, how many rerolls we think we got in this sucker?
The US is a criminal actor in the world, run by criminal shareholders. Stealing from Afghanistan, Venezuela, and Russians in front of the world while they arm their corrupt hopefuls for the post-war leadership of Ukraine and facilitate genocide in Palestine (itself probably planned for decades but hastening with the evident decline and shortened window in which to accomplish it). It’s become so transparent and communication technology outside of NATO so proliferated that it’s only a matter of time until there’s a big shift.
I know it’s rhetorical but yeah. They (not so) secretly want to kill LGBTQ, or at least view them as inferior. It’s just another indicator of weakness, to them, that LGBTQ protestors and allies don’t abuse their position in the West to demand reigning death on people living in places the West has previously done nothing but reign death upon or destabilize, while fostering the least palatable organized resistance they could find. Still couldn’t manage to find anyone worse than themselves though.
Probably worthwhile for most but there’s something particularly fucked up to most people about killing pets, I’d hope at least. With livestock there’s a whole historical context of homo sapien omnivorousness to explain it.
I know I’ve read some Parenti that gets into it a bit, I’ll take a look. Most were not literally executed, but the Soviets denied scientists acknowledgement for work, often they had as little knowledge of what they were really working on as possible (which may have hindered their contributions). But the only allegations attributing specific individuals their contributions that I’ve found before the collapse of the USSR appear in Western language sources, usually of those who were seemingly useful long enough or non-ideological enough to be sent home, and of those really just those that made their way to West Germany (and often ultimately the US) or were close to those that did.
Those people were quietly disappeared as their purpose was served, the US’ West German puppet state had more Nazi party members in many agencies, notably the “Justice” agency responsible for prosecuting or protecting them.
From 1949 to 1973, 90 of the 170 leading lawyers and judges in the then-West German Justice Ministry had been members of the Nazi Party.
Of those 90 officials, 34 had been members of the Sturmabteilung (SA), Nazi Party paramilitaries who aided Hitler’s rise and took part in Kristallnacht, a night of violence that is believed to have left 91 Jewish people dead.
Fully 77 percent of senior ministry officials in 1957 were former members of Adolf Hitler’s Nazi party, a higher proportion even than during the 1933-45 Third Reich, the study found.
If they aren’t just apathetic about how they look, which fair enough, I’d say just pick up a generic bottle of minoxidil shampoo. Probably fill that shit in in a month.
They kept schooling poor and university expensive to deflate the skilled labor pool in part to justify importing it, which continues hindering the natural development of formerly colonized or exploited places, but forgot to import or otherwise entice the foreign skilled labor. (or a periphery regional power in NATO in this specific example, but still enticed with the dividends paid on previous development paid for with theft)
Sometimes it can be, but more often I’ll reach for In My G4 Over Da Sea by Neutral Bling Hotel (bandcamp)
Saw Jeff live a couple times, one place was in a seated auditorium in central Pennsylvania. For some reason there were ushers and staff and shit. OMG. When he started singing, and everyone started signing with him… The fucking staff looked TERRIFIED! One guy looked so concerned, like we were some kind of cult and he was about to get sacrified or something.
All anyone should reply to this guy with is the video of him trying to show something on his phone and there’s just a browser search for trans porn
Yeah took an overnight from Shanghai->Chengdu and just slept, it was fine, but high speed on the return.
Pretty much all of the above for me. B with the qualifier that I just think the leadership is not as cartoonishly evil/stupid as the Western ruling class and the systems being put in place and claims being made by the state have a path to socialism. It’s not like the USA, where nothing is taught about socialism during education unless you go out of your way during university. I do think 1917 was the last truly realistic chance, which didn’t pan out mostly due to momentum (capitalist wealth stolen from other nations for decades/centuries and reinvested in the destruction of revolutions). It’s just that not all hope is lost.
The ruling class of the West seems to be a mix of (1) too stupid to realize their class will eventually bring about the Fourth Reich and very possibly end the world and (2) smart enough to approximately realize it but mostly stupid enough to not be interested in addressing it as anything other than individuals with NZ bunkers/WALL-E ambitions.
Also I just saw your handle and if you deal with that wanted to recommend benzoyl peroxide. I dealt with that (diagnosed) for a couple of years before finding this dermatology clinic’s report from the 80s. Cleared it up in a couple weeks.
Wow.
I was in that role too once, such a stupid fucking name for it. Not sure how many times I said “no, not real science, data science”.
PCB just shy of 5", checks out
I definitely believe in tests but it’s always an uphill battle to convince resistant devs. Even when the implication of failures for end users could mean death or spending years in a cage.
In businesses, I’ve only seen testing take off when it was properly budgeted for devs who already believed in it, or when the org hired test developer(s). And that was an org that had 100+ “testers” contracted, who’d literally click through the screens and note defects. So automated testing was an obvious cost savings.
It sounds like your main concerns are your IP leaking to instance operators? Valid. The most private way with the least absolute hassle, in my mind, would be to just use an account on an existing instance but only ever access it via Tor or a a VPN over Tor if Tor is blocked by most instances. Haven’t checked. Can be a commercial VPN or a VPN on a VPS you have, but if you’re going for broke then only something setup and paid for anonymously. So via Tor or public wifi networks with a wifi cannon with random MAC & taking care to avoid cameras, and paid with XMR or a prepaid debit card bought with cash at a shop without CCTV, preferably months or years earlier if there’s cameras in the area.
1.) some websites state that lemmy prefers you to have one user server (that is 1 server with only 1 user ) , but somewhere else i read that you need to whitelisted by servers to allow you to post on their community
Having federation default to deny or default to allow new instances is up to the operators of existing instances. Unless there’s a central place like (join-lemmy.org) which can aggregate these settings automatically I think you’d have to do some digging.
3.) can i use duckdns or no-ip to get a subdomain and then host matrix /lemmy server there , how safe /applicable is that
Dynamic DNS services should be fine, unless operators of large instances start blocking them. Lemmy instances are identified by their full domain, including subdomains, but if it became a common abuse/spam vector then there’s no guarantees.
I don’t think he could be worse than Biden or Trump, not that I’m voting for any of the three.
