Biden plans to send $1bn arms shipment to Israel (www.bbc.com)

spoilerThe White House has told Congress it wants to send more than $1bn (£800m) in new weapons to Israel. This comes despite the US being opposed to a full-scale invasion by the Israeli military on the southern Gaza city of Rafah. It said last week it had paused a shipment of bombs to Israel over concerns civilians would be...

Hm. Do I vote for genocide guy or other genocide guy? What a democracy!

I usually think bot accusations get thrown around quite carelessly. But there was a “tankie”-bashing reddit post pointed out on here a couple weeks back, and the account was so clearly, objectively a bot (mass posts, all anti-communist, almost all spouting ‘tankie’, comments very rarely related to the post at all, seemed to respond based on keywords, largely targeted subs that talked about ‘maps’, account was deleted straight after getting called out), that I’ve started to wonder.

It clearly must happen to some degree. I don’t see why else that bot existed. But the real quantity is probably impossible to estimate nowadays.

These movies show the conflict, to some degree or another, from the side of the oppressed. As soon as a movie shows the chosen race + ethnicity of people living in relative okay conditions due to benefiting from said fascism, people often side with the empire.

Starship Troopers being an obvious example.

This feels like a very sudden gutteral reaction to very recent events. We generally get on well with dbzero as an instance, even if the mods are lib-brained.

The only download software I used was the DownThemAll Firefox extension, which has always been real good. It works on all sites I’ve tried it with, it’s a very customisable interface, I don’t really know what you mean by not copy-pasting links but you don’t gotta do that.

You’re not likely to find an exact copy of the software for another OS, wine probably is your best bet if you just want IDM in Linux form.

We already had all this scaremongering about Trump the first time round, and it didn’t happen. So yes, it’s already been memory holed once, and is now equally believed again. The loop shall continue.

This is all just post-hoc rationalization. .world defederated from us before we were federated with effectively anybody at all, then they get a bunch of very weak screenshots to say “look they’re all meanies”, as if you couldn’t get the same weak-ass verbiage from any instance.

EDIT: Oooh, there’s room for a rebuttal. Can a siteadmin go over there and claim hexbear.net. Then we can have a thread vote on precisely how to rebut with something equally unserious.

This seems a silly post for dunk tank. It’s a funny jokey observation but I don’t see how it’s any kind of indictment of PointCrow. Beside them being full streams and lengths vary for wild reasons, I personally could name 100 pokemon faster than I could name even 50 people, and I don’t really like pokemon that much - I just don’t know famous names and have limited friends and family.

Automated tests are cool, but they definitely aren’t a panacea in place of humans

In Europe, these blocks are typically just IP bans, so secure DNS no helpy. You need a VPN or other proxy.

Is mass killing children via deliberate targeting not just like… automatically evidence?

“When someone makes that much money, there’s no incentive to do anything wrong,”

Is it possible to… boot into a LUKS in a LUKS?

I appreciate “make funny person talk” isn’t a huge deal, but as with everything, this will only affect poorer people. Even if every voice gen site ever did this, anyone with a handful of cash to waste can quite easily just get their own voice generation.

Websites worked fine before ads, and they would work well again without them. Doubly so now that crowdfunding is a common method to support things people actually want.

Yes, the vast majority of proleterian right-wingers do genuinely believe they are fighting the evil system that oppresses us. This is simply effective propaganda at play.

Honestly as a power user for 10 years I very, very rarely come across a time it’s a good idea to touch anything outside the home directory.

You mean the conflict that literally started with the people of Donetsk and Luhansk taking up arms against a government that was explicitly shutting down their language and implementing outright oppressive laws against their ethnicities?

All good intentions, but I don’t think it’s so straight forward to categorise a spectrum with a wide variety of understandings so rigidly as this.

But I very much like “Let’s not label each others’ sexuality” and “Let’s accept all multisexual labels and support each other”.

FWIW, if you’re in Europe, you have guaranteed rights to refund online purchases within a timeframe. I’m assuming they’ve factored that in, but worth knowing if not.

No? I’ve already said what it’s about, and I’m not eager to repeat myself 'cause I feel vague meanyness.
