  • Depends on how you want take it.. I don't believe the commenters refer really to people, they might be more like targeting Institutions (e.g. British Museum)... It all depends on the sensibility of the reader (like many arguments on the Internet)

  • I don't like those projects either. Scuttlebut and cjdns looked more "profesional" to my ignorant eyes. I bring these up because I'd like to hear your comments. I will check 10fingers now...

  • I believe "secret" is a better word, it conveys the intention of hiding them as executed by the corporate owners with the government's compliance

  • I love Python because it's actually the second best language to do anything. For concurrency, Go is better. Also, you are terribly naive to judge a language only by its syntax.

  • In case anyone wants to try this or any other "natural" drug. The most important fact is to check how far apart is the dose (a.k.a. LD50) that has the desires effect from the dose that's going to kill you. Most of the recreative drugs have a nice gap in between.

    Back from where I come from some teens would prepare an hallcinogenic tea with flowers from Datura plants. Some deaths were reported from time to time..

    Of course, this is not considering other risks (health issues aside from death itself, or psychological dependance.)

    So... Keep it simple. It's better to trust your dealer's products. Omg, wtf is my advise right now..?? Well, I guess "better" is the keyword here.

  • She's giving you the most difficult life lesson. I am almost 40 and to this day I dread to 'actively hear' many words my dad has to say about me or my decisions. It's a difficult lesson because they are our caregivers and as such they did many good deeds. But at some point we need to put our own mental health above anyone else's rant, rage, or toxicity. We don't owe them shit. After that leap, you may be able to come back to the issue that they were addressing with their comments and reflect upon the issue itself on your own and/ or with the help of others (friends, therapist, chatgpt?? I wouldn't recommend the latter but it may be a good starting point and better than nothing..)

  • So, infinite holes. Just like a line has infinite points. And, a longer straw has a bigger infinite number of holes.

  • I studied biology and one thing I like about ferns is that they have these "dots" under their "leaves" that once mature drops a powder of spores that creates new ferns... Don't ask me why I like it, I just do. I find it simple and to the point. You can simply leave a pot with earth under a fern and then you will find a baby developing there. Just like magic, and very elegant.

  • We are all victims of Jehova Witnesses, Evangelists, and other religions that take preaching/ contagion as a core value/ sacred activity for their members...

  • I fail to see the connection between the meme and the community where it was posted. Anyone cares to explain? Ty in adv.

  • This can mean anything, it's possible they wanted just 1 platform so that their expertise is focused. And android being a little more open may have been seen (biased) as a disadvantage (i.e. enemies are more prone to find a vulnerability). We can argue with it. It's like the counterpart of people thinking that open source is per default more safe because of being open source... It's a correlation that can't prove anything..

  • I know. But I can't find the humor in imagining a pool with fire. Also, in spanish we would say "on" instead of "in" to apply the secons meaning. Or at leas to me that's how it would really mean that there's fire at the pool: "la pileta esta en llamas" vs. "hay llamas en la pileta".

    Anyway... I am just an overthinker..

  • "Cuidado, hay llamas!" ... I don't get it.

  • And I wouldn't say the use here is just a swearword. Saying Iran is under a fascist regime should unite us to identify a problem, the suffering of their population. Do not allow semantics to be one another reason why we are fighting among us, the people with radical decency.

  • Since when are we getting so heated debates about fascism? Trump has ICE, and no one discussed if he wasn't facist before that. Learn to see the cues. Elimination of competing political rivals is just one aspect.

    Plus, if we were to look for a definition, might as well take one that accounts for understanding that facist regimes are, beyond all, a process. See for example the text by George Orwell: ‘What is Fascism?’ (1944)

    By ‘Fascism’ they mean, roughly speaking, something cruel, unscrupulous, arrogant, obscurantist, anti-liberal and anti-working-class. Except for the relatively small number of Fascist sympathizers, almost any English person would accept ‘bully’ as a synonym for ‘Fascist’. That is about as near to a definition as this much-abused word has come.

    But Fascism is also a political and economic system. Why, then, cannot we have a clear and generally accepted definition of it? Alas! we shall not get one — not yet, anyway. To say why would take too long, but basically it is because it is impossible to define Fascism satisfactorily without making admissions which neither the Fascists themselves, nor the Conservatives, nor Socialists of any colour, are willing to make. All one can do for the moment is to use the word with a certain amount of circumspection and not, as is usually done, degrade it to the level of a swearword.

  • Are you saying that any other instances are tolerant with Nazis/ Facism? Do any of these other instances host Nazi/ Facist communities too? If you were able to elaborate, I'm certain many people would be interested into knowing which communities or instances to de-federate (e.g. like many admins already did to hexbear).

    PS. I can't find it now, but there was a website like https://lemmyverse.net/ that showed the top instances that were defederated from the rest, and some "4chan-like" scene was around... if anyone remember which website I am talking about and could share, it would be great too. Thanks

  • One should pick them based on their rules. Other than that, I like piefed. But there aren't many active instances tho.
