oxf,

Don’t even bother. Lemmy is not the place to have these discussions.

בלתי אפשרי פה, אני שוקל ברצינות לחזור לרדיט מאז המלחמה Hebrew

לפחות ברדיט הדיונים הם לא 100% חד צדדיים ויש אנשים שמבינים את המשמעות של רצח עם ולא סתם קופצים על כל הזדמנות לחרבן על ישראל כי אמריקאים מקבילים הכל ללבנים נגד שחורים ואין להם את היכולת...

oxf,

הסכסוך הזה הוא הסיבה שבגללה עזבתי את למי. זה ממש מבאס, כי התחלתי ליהנות מהמקום, ואני מעריץ גדול של “קוד פתוח”. אבל אני לא יכול להסכים עם האנשים כאן.

חשוב לזכור ש"למי" נבנה על ידי קומוניסטים קיצוניים. לכן התחום בשלב הראשון הוא “.ML” - מרקסיזם-לניניזם. המקום הזה היה מאז תחילת הדרך כר גידול לקיצונים, ועם הסכסוך החדש הוא רק הלך והחמיר.

כשה-7 באוקטובר קרה, הלב שלי דמם לכם, המסכנים בישראל. איך יכולים להיות 2 צדדים לסיפור זה מטורף בעיני. אבל תראה את המצב עכשיו. יש לנו אנשים חסרי שכל מתרוצצים ברחובות וצועקים “מהנהר לים”. אפילו מרחיק לכת עד לשבח את חמאס, ועכשיו את החות’ים. זה קורה במערב. במדינות מתורבתות. הכל בגלל שהיינו שורצים באנשים רדיקליים ופרימיטיביים.

ישראל היא הדמוקרטיה היציבה והמתפקדת היחידה במזרח התיכון. כל אדם במדינה מערבית צריך לתמוך בכם. אני יודע שאני.

Hamas shouldn’t have messed with peaceful Israel

oxf,

I’ve spend many holidays alone at this point. Even last Christmas.

For New Years I usually try to get to the city, and walk around for a couple of hours enjoying the chaos around. You might bump into some random people, which could lead to who knows what?

User reports Google Maps proposed a sponsored detour to a trip (paquita.masto.host)

Original toot in Spanish says: “OK, so I need some alternatives to Google Maps, because I just decided seconds ago to stop using it after I got proposed a trip with a completely unnecessary detour which adds two extra minutes just because it pass by a gas station that sponsors this trip.”

oxf,

Your story doesn’t drive clicks though…

oxf,

You can put a piece of baking paper in between

oxf,

Wow, a sane take!? I’m surprised that this popped up between all the anti-israel propaganda here on Lemmy.

oxf,

I was really on-board of the idea of Lemmy in the beginning. It all made a lot of sense, and I felt like a part of the community.

But now it feels like its just an echo chamber of people, who seems to have very extreme beliefs.

It’s starting to be clear that the whole “ML - Leninism Marxism” was actually a big part of Lemmy.

I’m a centrist, slightly leaning towards the left, but I don’t feel like I truly belong in the demographic of Lemmy any longer. Reddit is starting to pull me back, and Boost still works, which only makes it harder to resist…

oxf,

Notice how the comment you replied to, despite claiming they “always get hate” has nothing but supportive people upvoting, while you have 3 angry lions going for the neck because you dare to say you support Israel…

It has come too far to ever work. This community, @world, is no longer a place for biased news. I have had to block for a long time, but just came back to see if it was still such a mess. Turns out it is.

The worst thing is that the mods here are directly supporting this.

oxf,

Yes, I meant unbiased, sorry.

But look at our scores. We are voices that defies the echo chamber. Therefor we must be silenced.

It sucks, because I actually genuinely was happy for Lemmy, and had moved all my browsing over here. But alas, it seems that I can no longer use this platform for news. I will go back to having this community blocked.

PS) Try going to r/worldnews and Reddit, and check what the tone of audience is over there. Much more biased towards Israel, which is a no-brainer in my world.

oxf,

I’m sorry but what? You actually raised the price for us in Denmark?

Old cost was 20 USD, and now you’re marking it at 25 USD.

oxf,

Old price: $20 - 136 kr.

New price: 175 kr. - $25.77

Ivacy VPN

Got a lifetime deal for 30 bucks.

oxf,

Yes, correct.

I’ve done a lot of digging, and the only concern I’ve found is that the company is somehow connected to PureVPN.

I’m not paranoid, so for me this is fine. Take your own threat model into consideration.

Funnily enough, Ivacy knows basically nothing about me, since I bought the offer through a 3rd party site. I have nothing registered on my Ivacy account, aside from my email and password.

oxf,

Thanks? lol

You are very active in your own topic. Feels like you genuinely care.

Now let’s switch the table, shall we? Which VPN do you use?

oxf,

You dont need the app at all. You can use Adguard’s DNS server, and have all ads blocked in all apps. Even sync.

oxf,

Personally I’m more for using a custom DNS server to block ads.

I was using Blokada 5, but found that it used a bit too much of my battery.

Now I just set my DNS to dns.adblock.com, and it gives me the same result.

oxf,

It seems like the negatives are always highlighted, when it comes to AI.

The obvious positives are always just disregarded.

The internet made it easy for scammers to teick people from across the globe. Internet is bad!

oxf,

There can be other reasons, and while it saddens me to say, we were forced to keep IE for specific web-panels, which hadn’t been updated since the 90s.

Edge does, after all, allow for compability with such sites, which is a good thing.

Please note that this is work work-related machines only. I dont see how it’s an issue when it has to do with your work account. You shouldn’t be using this for other things than work.

oxf,

Even “user-provided awards” should be kept out. It provides nothing substantial to the conversation.

It’s like saying “This 👆”, “I agree”, or “Take my upvote!”, all of which can be expressed by simply voting on the comment, which actually has an impact.

oxf,

My phone provider knew nothing about “Call Barring”. Bummer. Seems I will have to come up with some other solution to this.

Well, thanks again anyways!

oxf,

I have had the same number for close to 10 years now. Been using it for everything. All sorts of crap. After the big Facebook leak in 2021, I’ve started getting flooded with robo-calls, which is something I’ve never had to deal with before, since it’s not a US number, but a small European one. I also signed up for some Crypto site, long ago, and my number has seemingly been sold over a couple of times, since I’m also getting those “You have an account with us with 9000 dollars worth of Bitcoin” scam calls.

I’ve been meaning to get myself an actual good number for a while, so I purchased one with a lot of repeating digits, which I’ve slowly been transitioning to for family and friends. I keep both numbers though, as I have so many accounts tied to the old one, that it’s very hard to keep track of. Sometimes I still encounter a site, which I used years ago, that asks me to verify the login via my phone.

And that’s why I still have it. Whenever a site asks to verify via phone, I will give the old number, which I already know has been breached multiple times. By doing this, I will keep my new number clean, and never give it out to an online service.

I’m just tired of the endless robo-calls, and as I’ll only need to be able to receive texts, I figured I might as well completely disable inbound calls.
