No, shareholder interest, which - in the absence of the clear desire of the majority shareholder(s) - is assumed to be profit. So I think the question above is quite important actually

All sucks sites are legitimate military targets by definition - regardless of whether they have anything to do with conventional weapons. MAD is not about ethnics. MAD is about MAD. No one will give a damn whether there were also some pee shooters in the missle silo the destruction of which caused Armageddon. You don’t need sympathy. This brings you one step closer to disaster too.

The kakoune editor cimes with clippy by default. It’s not exactly a Vim version though, but close enough.

Android is Linux. It’s all the stuff on top that makes it more secure - 90% of which is covered by flatpak + MAC.

The man’s talking about class differences in general though. Pretty sure those predate us apes even knowing there were other different colored troops.

Either way it kind of feels like a bit of a chicken and egg discussion. Were we hierarchical animals first, then leveraged arbitrary and irrelevant traits to enforce that hierarchy, or vice versa.

To me it’s really simple. You adress class issues -> you adress “culture war” issues (those disproportionally impacted get disproportionately addressed, as they should be). You address “culture war” issues -> shitshow ensues.

I know what I’m gonna focus on.

Man, of all the Lemmy instances to choose a thunderbolt screen name with… Jk, glad you had a good experience - welcome aboard man

Truth be told, once I made myself live without extensions for a week, I realized I never needed them in the first place. Gnome has a way of making you discover a slightly different way of doing the same thing that in hindsight just works better with the overall system than an extension would.

But to each their own…

This reads to me like a fairly leftist meme though, just more on the classical Marxist side.

Not missing it, just not addressing it. The topic wasn’t of particular interest from that angle. Not to me anyway.

It’s not that I dislike the word liberated, it’s that it’s completely inaccurate in this case, and those kinds of inaccuracies do have consequences, however slight at first.

Defeated is a good word. Invaded is another. Liberated isn’t.

Let’s get one thing straight, Germany was not liberated, it was defeated.

Of course we can say not all… But that’s a sociological tautology.

It’s exactly this kind of west = good silent premise that’s making us miss what’s beginning to brew over there again now that things are getting tough. Just like it did last time.

I’m not saying Germans are evil, but we need to be careful with this kind of subtle revisionism. I suspect you didn’t even say it intentionally - it’s just a phrase that’s often used around you, and that’s what makes it doubly dangerous.

Nothing against you man, I’m just a tad disenchanted with the current state of things is all.

Thank you for the chuckle kind stranger

I really had hoped for something better on the fediverse, but I am noticing a move in that direction. At the same time, I’ve had some rather heartwarming interactions here. I’m still holding out hope…

I tried to be as charitable as I could here, I really did. Clearly you don’t share the same approach to life. That’s alright, it typically passes after college.

I don’t know what to tell you other than I spent my entire adult life in Asia, having left Europe in large part because I didn’t feel welcome there due to a mixture of my skin color and my ethnicity. I stopped following political developments there ages ago, and this is the first time I heard this woman’s name.

I also happen to be heavily left leaning, and I am sick of people I politically align with, who are too busy being professionally outraged to get anything done. Change hearts and minds; stop looking for “snapplause” moments. Those people already agree with you. You’ve done nothing, won nothing, but a dopamine shot.

…I suspect the bits of personal information above matter to you for some reason, and that makes me profoundly sad. I wish you the best, and I hope that one day your heart opens just a crack more.

And in case the passive-aggressive - and really childish - “lol, uh huh” was meant to imply I was somehow covertly politically aligned with her; I’m both on the wrong continent and on the wrong side of the political spectrum for that.

Please consider shaking this bad-faith miscaracterization/so-you’re-saying quote + snarky comment 1-2 combo. It’s not very helpful to anyone - yourself in particular - thought it might feel like it.

Oh, that clarifies things, thanks!

I neither have nor had any intention of defending her.

My only intention was to point out the effect the approach above - and now below - has one somene with absolutely no dog in this fight.

While I am a sample of one, that’s an interesting data point for someone looking to advance their political view point - less so for someone looking to score internet points.

I know nothing about her politics. I know even less about modern Italian power structures. But I do know that you using someone’s bloodline as an argument against them (or for them) makes me less inclined to hear you out.

The apparent, less-than-measured vitriol towards an entire nation (which could be a misreading, or purely affectational) doesn’t help either.

Take that for what it’s worth - which might not be much.

Damn, Joe Rogan got a job.
