Does everything work on it? Sleep/hibernate too?

I left once they started curating & collating lists of known prolific tankies so that they could share them amongst each other to tag each one every time they encountered them on Lemmy.

They lost their domain and federation went with it for now, until they get a new domain

it used to be hard to imagining anyone wanting to work w someone as toxic as linus; but i’ve learned after my first 2 tenures at faang that developers are as tribalistic as any kardashian worshipper.

devs getting angry at each other and then rage quiting is just a sympton of a tribalistically shared belief of intellectual superiority among developers like when kardashian sisters have beef with each other and their followers attack each other for it.

my 7th grade biology teacher dedicated a lesson to why evolution was false and her base argument was that she never evolved in her entire life, therefore evolution was false.

i suspect that a majority of the students agreed w her.

Zionazis

brilliant! i’m going to steal this. lol

san francisco was never that warm. lol

it’s understandable why you and an overwhelming majority won’t accept reality since the propaganda you’ve ingested has given you an ideology that will not allow you see reality; it’s also understand how this inability is leading us into yet another needless, bloody episode of history repeating itself as the western capitalist world descends into fascism because of it.

the message i’ve tried to bring here is the same one that republican and democratic leaders alike going all the way back to reagan & carter. american ambassadors like gfoeller, rundell, matlock and american secretaries of defense like mcnamara, gates, perry have tried to bring this message to nato, the un, and the american & ukranian people; the russians likewise have their own people who tried to give the same warning. two things can be true at the same time and refusing to acknowledge that led to this entirely pointless death and suffering and it will lead to more so long as people like you continue to double down on “chinese bots” and “russian talking points” instead of rational discourse.

there’s no good reason why half a million people should have been liquidated and nothing was gained from it; only lost and only because people stuck their heads in the sand and refused to acknowledge reality.

if starmer does get assassinated; it would be the clearest sign of a deep state that i’ve ever seen.

like it did with cuba

the only thing that could be laughable is how uncritically most people accept the information that is given to them; but it’s not laughable since it leads to so much death and suffering.

corruption is as rife in poland and the united states as much as it is in ukraine or russia; what makes any difference is that your regime green-lights the propaganda that informs you about the corruption that they want you to see while simultaneously red-lighting any other information. if you’re russian or any kind of easterner, then that red-lighting is done via blatant bans like a chinese firewall; but if you’re polish, american or any kind of westerner, then red-lighting is done by defunding (and/or making irrelevant) journalists/experts whose work could make you aware of the corruption that your regime doesn’t want you to see.

i’m sure you’re already aware of this at some level somewhere, so not applying this knowledge and uncritically accepting the depictions on polish TV is just plain bonkers. likewise, uncritically accepting the nucleus of each protest is also just as equally bonkers; the bare-bones minimum for critical thinking is analyzing who benefits by the actions taking place and searching for information (beyond the information that your regime wants you to see) will give you the answers.

i can see now that the examples i pulled from the article implies that the nyt was trying to warn against the conflict; i’ve changed to wording of my comment to explain that they’ve been a mouthpiece for the government and my intention was to support the fact that proof of consent manufacturing has been around since the beginning like time, life, or newsweek magazines doing the same thing during vietnam.

if you ever chose to pay attention, you and the public will come to learn about the circumstances that led to this war at some point in the future. ever since vietnam and including iraq, these lessons from history has given us independently verifiable proof years after the conflict that the american government has lied to the public (and always will). history also teaches us that, that proof was always there since the beginning of all conflicts, but the public continually choses to ignore it because of the controlled narrative that people are unwittingly spoon-fed by the consent manufacturing machine that is our media.

if you chose to not pay attention, academics will study and students will learn of the warnings that came before & at the onset of ukraine conflict from people like ambassadors gfoeller, rundell, matlock or secretaries of defense mcnamara, gates, perry and from examples of propaganda from publications like the new york times. all of these are the examples from this article you’ve chosen to ignore in your steadfast adherence to a maga-like willful ignorance that has created this new fascist world that we’re all forced it live within.

it makes me wonder what the cia version 2 will be like.

this is how american propaganda works; it doesn’t outright block the information that you need to make an informed decision like a chinese internet firewall. instead that information is hidden away from you, buried in news articles that you’ll never read (or even be are that you need to read); or reports that get little to no air time on tv or social media; or couched in dense legalese that requires a law degree to understand and it’s not because you’re lazy or ignorant, but because you’re distracted by your other shit that needs to get done and/or bills you need to pay.

in this case: the knowledge that that’s been kept from you is that the orange revolution and the maidan protests are the result of american soft power exerting itself over ukraine’s political system and that “functional democracy” was dangled over them like a carrot on a stick to join nato in a reality were not even americans get to enjoy such a democracy.

yes and i’m hoping that it’s next version is less capable of spreading the misery it has been spreading for the last 100-ish years.

i’m guessing that you would only need a single token pa officer in each cadre of the new government.

i was glad to see trump’s efforts at dismantling the cia; it sort became like a silver lining to the dark cloud that was trump dismantling the entire federal government and now it looks like usaid might be another silver lining.

i was only vaguely aware that usaid was a duplicitous organization; offering aid with strings attached like the imf; but seeing news stories like this come to the surface has solidified to me how much more damage than good that they were doing to this world

it sounds like the few remaining pa officers will become the face of the egyptian/jordanian government in palestine, so there only needs to be enough to enable publicity; sort of like how republicans and tories bring their few token minorities to the front to give the impression that they’re not prejudiced.
