I meant the block button only appears when logged out sorry

the subject from mastadon can be handled by making it whatever is in the first sentence\paragraph. making anything after a line break become the body of the post

we do need to get advertisers out of our lives but we also need to not alienate the creators that make money from their art.

keeping track of costs and funding should be implemented on mastodon ui Open Coilective founder said she will look into implementing a health bar type element synced with the Open Collective api on their mastodon. wage transparency is something capitalists kept forbidden for a reason. im surprised the hyper capitalist crypto people dont have the balance from hyper communist coders making open source sustainability super easy and cool.

Watermarking factual footage in a way that people can verify metadata would also be an interesting tool for journalism to be able to focus on evidence to improve confidence of facts. Taiwan fights misinformation by having easily available tools people can use to verify information and focus on improving critical thinking of the people. fighting the infodemic and pandemic without takedowns and lockdowns seems to be the best approach. Tools that prevent people getting tricked by disinformation and verifying information for the infoedmic and improving clean air with things like CR boxes and c02 sensors and clean air regulation for the pandemic.

im just wondering why lemmy isnt available without tor? Do ISPs in france block Lemmy?

How do you get banned from Reddit 5 times?

Why doesn’t the .ml instance with in France without tor?

The issue comes from the authoritarians who think their authorianism is great because its done under a flag they like.

i.e. people will completely deny uyghur genocide happening, or the fact the Putin is fascist as fuck and has been running a christian nationalist regime for decades.

Its obvious their beliefs dont come from love of their people like the Black Panthers focused on. Their beliefs comes from hate so anything that makes the countries that are anti-west look bad they will deny or try to spin it and say its actually a good thing.

They essentially run from one oppressor to another instead of understanding all the superpowers are run by people who dont care about the citizens. Nuance and compassion are important but instead they want to believe everything anything remotely anti-west is good and true and anything else is propaganda. Theyre like average redditors who will complain about tiktok being spyware because it’s a company from China and should be deleted while seeing no problem with Google’s spyware OS and apps.

Interesting read thanks for sharing

Could you add sources to the claims please

its insane how much funding the US puts into “national security” and basically ignores climate change and the pandemic that is both killing and disabling its population. Feels like the world is run by a NeoLiberal death cult

Ah sweet, thats good. Thanks!

Yes the US has been overthrowing democracies and installing fascists into power for decades https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Condor

That doesn’t deny the fact that Putin invaded Ukraine and he shouldn’t have. Ukraine wouldn’t care about joining nato if they weren’t consistently under threat of Putin.

What does your last paragraph have to do with Russia not helping Armenia or taking control of Belarus? Is that just a whataboutism paragraph?

Good reply.

I still think its wrong to continue to look at this as the west vs russia since that ignores the fact that Ukrainians are defending themselves from an invasion that started because Russia wants to absorb countries while putting 100% of the blame on “NATO expansion”.

Look at Belarus and how they’re essentially under Putin’s rule now. Look at how Armenia is being invaded and Putin isn’t defending them even though it was agreed Russia would help them. Putin isn’t doing any of this to protect anyone.

Such an idiotic thing to say especially when thousands of people in the US are dying each week and countless amounts are being disabled with long covid. Didnt him and his wife have covid just a few weeks ago like wtf

The US is and the EU is helping fund Ukraine yes but you acting like Ukrainians are deciding to fight this to protect their country and family is ridiculous. It just seems like you’re desperate to paint Russia as doing something great because you somehow believe they are a Communist country so you want to defend Putin’s imperialistic endeavours.

Russia has been under fascist rule for a long time under Putin but you don’t want to accept that because “west bad”

wow, the import video feature is really convenient!

I hope they use OpenAi’s new open source speech recognition to enable automatic captions to improve accessibility features.

weird you keep framing this as solely the west VS russia as if ukraine has zero say in any of this. The truth is a large majority of the population of Ukraine has volunteered to fight against russia to defend their home and country. Russia could stop the invasion today instead of forcing their men to die for Putin’s imperialist and genocidal dreams…

same

Do you have a source for that, that number sounds way too high to me?

its sounds way too high to you based on what? hopium? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/aug/25/long-covid-americans-workforce-brookings-report https://www.port.ac.uk/news-events-and-blogs/news/study-finds-long-covid-has-a-significant-impact-on-uk-workforce https://www.barrons.com/articles/long-covid-workplace-disability-51661538939

Monkeypox is not a pandemic and they way it currently is, will not become a pandemic.

it was already declared a “national emergency” by the WHO and the US, there is literally 0 effort being done to prevent it from spreading uncontrollably other than the TINY vaccination efforts. 0 Contract tracing and the media has already given the impression that its a “gay disease” so the straight need not to worry and continue going to clubs, concerts, and restaurants.

What do you mean by immune system getting wrecked?

there are studies (still havent been peer reviewed from what i understand tho) that show covid has lasting effect on lowering our immune system long after you’re testing negative which makes you more susceptible to catching other diseases. Catching multiple diseases with covid is a great way for it to mutate to something worst.

you most likely won’t get as sick if you are exposed to the virus

false. multiple reinfections is widely understood to be the norm and every reinfection increases the risk of long term health effects https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20220707/each-covid-19-reinfection-increases-health-risks

the only alternative to letting it rip now is something like this:

no its not. Taiwan doesn’t have lockdowns, they have common sense contact tracing, high rates of mask usage, theyre increasing ventilation and filtration systems in public spaces. Countries can fund businesses to improve ventilation and filtration and pass laws to enforce paid days of for sick employees so they stop going to work sick. Mask mandates are needed and the shit politicians like Biden etc working while sick and never wearing masks in public anymore is insane.

China has the scary lockdowns you see go viral but those are only in very small occurences cuz they actually do contact tracing, wear masks, and give a shit if theyre population is infected. They have plenty of testing locations with 10-20 minute waits and they test millions of people every day or two and they shut down commerce when needed even if it affects theyre dollars. Shenzhen is on lockdown because of a wave but they will probably open up in a week and go back to living like normal. Truth is most of the population in China live like its pre pandemic time because of how well most locations handled the virus. We only see the fucked up house welding videos and gates being put up in neighborhoods and none of the videos of people living life like normal because “China Bad”. Yes the house welding shit is dystopian but thats not widespread while a population getting disabled and killed by a disease while the leaders gaslight the population to believe nothing wrong is going on is also extremely dystopian.

Starlink is another grift by Elon to continue his ponzi practices of pushing some grand future promise to get suckers to invest in his shit instead of investing in public goods. heres a thread on how much of a mess starlink actually is https://twitter.com/rdrimmel/status/1563158073694310401

governments should be forcing companies to build fiber with all the public funding they’ve been spending on corporate bonuses

lmao this is such a ridiculous article praising “it was wrong to empower scientists to such a degree”… right. lets ignore the scientist and focus on the money. lets ignore the longterm health effects of a disabling disease that has already caused millions of people quit the workforce due to long covid. Yeah lets just keep letting it rip and have our immunity systems get so wrecked that theres now a second pandemic ongoing (monkeypox) and polio is making a comeback in multiple countries it was essentially gone from.

The UK and US will sacrifice its populations to ensure the gears of Capitalism continue while its population suffers all the while the population of the US has no healthcare without their jobs and the UK is doing their best to ruin their public healthcare…

probably, thanks!

You love writing paragraphs lol.

1. I never said i was an anarchist or any ideology. why are you so obsessed with attacking teams/cults that aren’t your own. Can you believe in things without supporting other people blindly just because that wave your flag or wear your hat?

2. Putin isn’t bombing Ukraine because its oppressing his country lmao and its been doing all that fascist shit, assassinating people in other countries + in Russia and stopping all opposition for decades. Its a far right christian nationalist country not the USSR

But it appeared on mastodon like a normal mastodon post without the need to search for it? Ive never seen that before

How did you make this post also appear on mastodon and mastodon replies appear in this thread?

There is literally no political opposition in the country anymore. It is far right regime that has shut down all opposition and created a scenario in which anyone that isn’t remotely in line with exactly what the regime wants now ends up on an assassination list.

not a shred of self awareness was detected

hopefully next is public systems go open source \ agpl

Tesla wants the video of the car running over the mannequin taken down too https://www.theverge.com/2022/8/25/23321553/tesla-takedown-videos-child-mannequins-dawn-project

big powerful government tryna impose its will on people who dont accept it as its ruler and are willing to fight for their right to self determination. same shit different air freshener

grrr why do people think a place with its own government, flag, army, and culture is a country grrrr

do you think palestine should be owned by israel too? or that cuba shouldve not fought against the US and just let itself be taken over? no? hmmm wonder why

Is there any noticeable benefit to the end user from not having systemd though?

That’s awesome, next give and waive loans to Puerto Rico so they can renationalize their electric grid.

This should be what you need https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference#tag/Video-Comments/paths/~1videos~1{id}~1comment-threads/post

The authorizations and login sections

If you can find documentation on how they do it I would appreciate you sharing it so we can show to the lemmy devs to simplify their work if they decide to implement it.

Im not calling communists fascists I’m saying the people supporting the Z army’s are supporting fascists. Just like id call christian friends who support their priest after theyve been caught raping children as supporting rapists.

we dont need daily reminders about protons “offers”…

weird that you think ukraine should just accept “swift victory” by the fascist Z army but dont think cuba should just accept “swift victory” by the US or Palestine by Israel etc…

none of the countries should accept “swift victory” by those invading and trying to commit genocide against them. You should unequivocally stand against imperialism but you dont because right now the ones invading wave a flag you like.

sounds like a great way to have lemmy overun with spam and fascist propaganda…
