DNC and DNC shills expecting free votes because they're democratically funding a genocide instead of fascistly funding a genocide
You morons in November when Trump inevitably wins due to horrendous voter turnout in November from former Democrat voters and not because the 5 communists in the USA made the difference
It's like a copy paste of Trump v Clinton and clearly no one learned their lesson from literally 8 years ago.
I get that Organic is not an end all solution but I swear not enough people realize that eating produce that was grown in roundup ready acid probably isn't a valid solution either.
It's kind of annoying that there's no easy way to tell how something was grown because it could range anything from barely any added targeted weed killer to air dropped agent orange (/s) lol.
Lots of non organic farms can be perfectly healthy if they opt to control weeds with a variety of methods instead of letting Monsanto Bayer nuke the soil.
I mean... using the water as an indicator for directional Gs is technically correct lol.
It won't help you learn to drift better, but it does work as a bargain basement indicator for roughness of driving, which could be important if you're moving food and don't want it to spill.
Alternatively, you could just use a car with good suspension and not drive like a maniac lol.
Okay not that I'm insinuating that this is the same circumstance, but the last time a certain nation said this, it eventually backfired.
Putin's plan to capture Ukraine failed miserably, but Russia still has a significant fighting force and time to keep drawing this war out as long as they want.
Ukraine's former general emphasized their own losses and said it was critical that Ukraine train more troops and acquire supplies quickly.
They can't afford to stock on latest greatest weapons which is why they've been overly reliant on donations of old and surplus tech, especially vehicles.
NATO, ie mostly the USA, has failed to supply Ukraine with any significant stock of modern muntions that would give them an edge against Russia. It's been two years and they still don't have base block F-16s which would absolutely have helped during the early stages of the war.
Russia can keep the war machine going, slowly rearm, and try again, which could prove detrimental for Ukraine. They need to be decisively defeated in order for Ukraine to succeed.
For Ukraine's sake, I really hope someone diposes Putin in a coup, considering how much of a wreck he made.
This isn't about immediately filtered content, like the disgusting DuffMan George Floyd meme, or Holocaust denial. That's pretty well kept in check by mod tools. I'm also not talking about cogent or even pointed political discussion....
I want to see if I can get a spark of the "old internet" back by making a starting page for myself with all kinds of cool websites. But not sure where to start because Google obviously will not work for this....
The U.S. military has started moving a pier towards the Gaza coast, a U.S. official said on Wednesday, one of the last steps before the launch of a maritime port promised by President Joe Biden to speed the flow of humanitarian aid to Palestinians....
That is what they are already doing by allowing Israel to keep the border crossings closed.
This pier is as useless as letting the civilians starve to death because none of that aid will reach them because Israel only agreed to the port if they also get to dictate what goes through.
ie they built a new a closed on arrival marine aid route that will likely get bombed by the IDF anyway.
Israel is full blocking aid trucks which they can easily inspect. Even the few they were originally letting through were attacked to scare off NGOs and the UN. Their demand to search the packages is just a ruse they can use to halt the flow.
There is a ridiculously low chance Hamas has been successful in smuggling anything related to weapons for the past 6 months via the aid.
Meanwhile the remaining Gazans are starving to death because Israel has already decided all Palestinians are Hamas and must be eradicated from the area.
The USA could at anytime use its insane MIC leverage to force Israel to let aid in, but they won't because they see Israel as a prime ally.
People who make these typa posts are the same people who wouldn't show up to a protest for any of these things
yall are actually insane if you think protesting genocide is somehow mutually exclusive from other issues, or that pressuring Biden automatically means you're voting for Trump
Both this community and Politics have some of the dumbest party shill takes ever.
Lol my comment from last week which got heavily downvoted:
Considering Biden repealed his settler sanctions, I'd actually bet this eventually gets approved after Israel promises to pay shipping fees in exchange for breaking the SLA stating they can't do a genocide
mfw he doubled down and approved another massive sale on top of the smaller blocked shipment.
I really hated all the stupid reasons given for why Bernie could not be president by democrats who voted for Biden
Of which none included the fact that the DNC chooses its candidates beforehand and opts to support them to win their scam primaries.
He's independent and probably running for his last term, should honestly run for president just to show how many votes Biden is not going to get anyway.
I find it sad that president from the late 70s showed more care for his constituency and broader world during the cold war than what our current president seems to be actively avoiding during a self funded genocide.
Still think jet fuel is the wrong thing to be looking at with carbon fuel emissions.
It is technically more feasible on a small scale because jet (and turbine) engines will burn basically anything, with jet fuel being a mixture of kerosene like hydrocarbons.
But iirc both land vehicle and shipping outclass airplanes in total emissions.
Cars & Trucks can be (for much cheaper) replaced by proper mass transit like high speed rail.
And I'm surprised cargo ships still run mostly on novelty sized diesel engines. Would be interesting to throw a small ultra safe nuclear powered engine on one of those or even just enforcing better fuel use instead of spamming low grade MDO.
He wrote that the justifications for Israel’s war in Gaza became “difficult to defend” and that “whatever the justification you’re either advancing a policy that enables the mass starvation of children, or you’re not.” The post received an outpouring of support with hundreds of likes and comments in just a few...
There were like 10 reported cases total because hospitals would only send for a test with a solid match up of symptoms and if the patient had recently traveled from China.
Then when they opened up testing for everyone after CA and NY started going up in flames, it went from 10 to like 1000 cases reported every day.
All in a span of like two weeks.
Went from meme to pandemic so fast Whitmer closed public schools faster than the schools themselves could.
Oh and then Trump got mad and refused to send aid or allow harsher restrictions lol.
BSD is useful for when you want to program some specialty hardware once and chuck it into the abyss with no updates and without releasing the source code so you can maintain a barely passing level of security through obscurity. Or if you really just don't want to publish your source code for a unix system.
Things like modems and old routers come to mind. Also PlayStation iirc.
Most modern IoT stuff I've messed with uses linux probably because the devs like not having to manually package things and deal with weird edge case bugs. Since they're usually making software updates anyway, published vulns are less of a concern.
1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) is among companies that are suing the wife of former Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak for allegedly obtaining over US$346 million worth of luxury goods through misappropriated funds.
Half assing a report saying that Israeli maybe used US weapons against civilians after 6 months of Israel blatantly murdering civilians with US weapons is definitely not enough lol.
Israel seems to be going ahead with their full assault on Rafah which means the ceasefire deal is probably down the gutter.
So it would be enough if Biden actually follows through with serious consequences for Israel. He stopped one shipment as a threat so far, so I'm patiently waiting to see how he reacts.
It's stupid seeing lowest bidder contractors announcing inafara projects with a finish date of like 3 years into the future for something that could be easily completed in months with proper equipment, personnel, and expertise.
I ran with 8gb ram for 7 years because zram would shove my swap into what little ram I had available and it actually worked well enough that I didn't feel like upgrading until this year lol.
Lol unless Biden changes course, SE Michigan alone will ensure his loss of the state.
Dearborn does not screw around and will happily take 4 years of Trump if their demands are not met. They were very aware of Hillary's sketchy past as Secretary of State when she ran in 2016 and she lost Michigan because only 10k people didn't vote for her.
And iirc the total turnout was already like 400k less compared to Obama.
Please not Ubuntu. It has enough of its own issues that it originally turned me away from Linux.
Oh and KDE for the desktop environment if you want great out of box windows like UI if you go with Fedora. Mint comes with cinnamon which is also pretty good. xfce if you want to run linux on a potato.
If tiktok were a serious threat, the executive branch would have already banned it by now via an executive order.
That's not what happend, instead a whole bill went through congress and got passed with the explanation being "foreign influence" as if American social media platforms don't already do the same thing
This is more about removing foreign competition and not about saving democracy or ensuring security.
DoD already banned it 4 years ago for military because of the actual security threat of data collection.
I just wish their websites reflected to show all their available spins. It feels like you have to go out of your way to get to the spins site because the main page only shows Gnome.
I get that Gnome is RedHat's main thing, but like at least make a button that says "See other excellent DEs". The only thing they have is a button for alt downloads that shows stuff for net install and rawhide.
