Better yet, upvote answers you don’t personally agree with but believe add value to the discussion.

What strategic or even tactical value is gained by hitting civilian targets? It’s not just inhuman and a war crime. It’s also stupid.

Nobody,

Good advice. And one of the keys is to focus on accomplishing the parts of the project you took care of today, not obsessing about working ahead or what’s on your plate tomorrow. It’s a marathon, not a sprint.

The accuracy of DARPA’s secret weather machine is just incredible.

When a console overloads, it’s way better to be thrown from the seat than to be burned and electrocuted. The lack of seat belts is a safety feature.

Government drone birds can handle surprisingly large amounts of data.

The most fun part of the early internet was the feeling that it was the Wild West. Lawlessness and fun. Obviously, rules are needed to keep things under control, but I agree that erring on the side of having fun isn’t a bad thing. It’s more inclusive and it lets people express themselves.

One of my favorite things to see on Lemmy is people who lurked on Reddit but feel free to talk here. Being too heavy-handed with rules might discourage those people from contributing.

Computer, I’ll take a bottle of pirate rum from the 17th century.

The burial of these structures around 9000 years ago adds further intrigue for reasons not fully understood. Given the long and continuous occupation of Gunung Padang, it is reasonable to speculate that this site held significant importance, attracting ancient people to repeatedly occupy and modify it.

This has been the problem with dating these structures. Carbon dating the objects found inside is consistent both with those people building it and with those people finding it and using it. The latter means the structure was built prior to the civilization being credited with building it.

“I’m from the government and I’m here to help” is a very good thing when the government gives a shit about the people it governs.

Israeli army executes an elderly Palestinian after using him in propaganda campaign about its ‘safe corridor’ in Gaza (euromedmonitor.org)

Geneva – The Israeli army’s execution of an elderly Palestinian after using him in a propaganda campaign promoting its “safe corridor” in Gaza was strongly condemned in a statement released by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor today....

It’s in the fine print when you sign the waiver to be filmed that they’re going to shoot you right after. You have to read those things closely.

300k+ Russian souls lost to Putin’s madness. How many more before the end? Insane Tzars were removed by their rivals back in the day.

Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky. Our conscience is what makes us human and divine.

Hospitals have special protection under the rules of war. Why are they in the crosshairs in Gaza? (apnews.com)

JERUSALEM (AP) — The head of surgery at Gaza’s largest and most advanced hospital held up his phone Saturday to the hammering of gunfire and artillery shelling. “Listen,” said Dr. Marwan Abu Sada as fighting raged around Shifa Hospital.

The total war tactics of WW2 are unthinkable by modern standards, but it’s hard not to sympathize with an outgunned army fighting for their home. They fight because they’d rather die than lose.

Maybe instead of fighting people in that position, you talk to them and work out a peace deal. If they’re willing to be reasonable, end the violence.

Alternative theory: Sexbots will take care of the sexual needs of gross incels without the possibility of procreation, killing off the alt right in a single generation.

"There are hundreds of mothers like me:" An interview with Oksana Pekhteleva, whose daughter’s killer won a Putin's pardon for fighting in Ukraine (meduza.io)

On the night of January 13, 2020, the Russian Vladislav Kanyus brutally murdered his 23-year-old ex-girlfriend, Vera Pekhteleva. For hours, neighbors listened to Pekhteleva scream in agony and repeatedly called the police, but by the time officers arrived, she was dead. Kanyus was sentenced to 17 years in prison, while the...

Now, the already violent murderer is back on the street with massive PTSD from watching ~80% of his meat grinder unit get killed. And also with actual combat experience. Lots of it.

I hear the request for advice about not pooping for 3 days got deleted. Hopefully, somebody saved it.

We’d settle for straight up feudalism at this point. Serfs had guaranteed jobs, housing, food, and a decent amount of time off.

People in power will squeeze and squeeze. They’ll crank up the interest rates. They want you to default on the equity. Take your payments and your car. That’s how they make their money.

This is the problem with Democratic voters turning on Biden over Gaza. The Republican stance is that all Palestinians are Hamas, and they should be either killed or exiled. “Not calling for a ceasefire quickly enough” isn’t a thing on the right, and it never will be.

There has to be a ceasefire and humanitarian conduit opened. It’s too much.

Did American History X foreshadow the resurgence of white nationalism in the US? (www.bbc.com)

A brilliant film emerged from these skirmishes – but its core insight still takes work to unpack. For generations, a persistent myth that black families were irreparably broken by sloth and hedonism had been perpetuated by US culture. Congress’s landmark 1965 Moynihan Report, for example, blamed persistent racial inequality...

Nobody,

Great film, but I’d argue what was ahead of its time was the criticism of toxic masculinity. And it avoided the Fight Club trap of people misunderstanding that it was a critique of that mindset and glorifying the dark side of the protagonist/antagonist.

Nobody,

These tech companies have underestimated their utility. They are mostly providing mindless time wasters. If you try to charge money or create inconvenience, people will look for something else to do.

Their attention is your lifeblood, and you’re actively giving them reasons to look elsewhere. The VC grow-at-all-costs business model is fundamentally flawed. It doesn’t scale when profitability becomes a priority.

Nobody,

If content creators provide 90% or even 60% of value to YouTube, why is Google a trillion dollar company while major content creators are fighting for scraps that fall from their table? Why are content creators who aren’t in the top tier compensated so little for what they bring to the table?

YouTube is nothing without content. Unionize. Stand together and get paid what you’re worth.

Unionize and get paid what you’re worth. Shilling for the billionaires has no future.

The trick is to give and take exactly 50% of the wind energy. That way, you can set up an entropy rig and capture that energy.

Why Mozilla is betting on a decentralized social networking future (techcrunch.com)

The mission-driven tech company behind the Firefox browser, Pocket reader and other apps is now investing its energy into the so-called “fediverse” — a collection of decentralized social networking applications, like Mastodon, that communicate with one another over the ActivityPub protocol.

Perfect match. Lemmings constantly steer users away from Google and spread the word of Firefox with uBlock Origin.

Nobody,

I’m still not seeing why Israel is being treated as a priority over or at least equal to Ukraine. Ukraine is up against a legitimately strong adversary using human wave tactics. Israel is dropping bombs seemingly indiscriminately on mostly civilians. Ukraine is fighting for its existence. Israel is getting revenge on its much, much weaker neighbor.

If Iran and its proxies enter the war, that might change the calculations, but that hasn’t happened yet.

Nobody,

Is this for real? Those are very big numbers.

Nobody,

Yikes. Thanks for the info.

My favorite TOS episode was the one where they showed the clear superiority of the aliens with the white/black faces over the aliens with the black/white faces. The genocide part went a bit far, but in the end those black/white face guys had it coming.

It was never about the money. Musk is turning a once-valuable information space into a fascist shithole. That was always the goal.

How crucial texting is to modern dating

I am 23 and I am currently in the dating scene. I’ve had no success and I’ve had the fourth person lose all interest in between setting up the date and the long wait between the date. It typically goes match on dating site, set up date, try to get to know each other over snap and then interest lost. I do tend to respond...

Tell them you’re busy with work. You’re in meetings all the time and have to turn your phone off. When you get to know them better, you can explain in more detail.

Rich people get richer. When the recession comes, they’ll buy up smaller competitors with our tax money given to them as “bailouts.” It’s all bullshit. Always has been.

I wonder how much of that ill-gotten wealth he’s taking with him.

The beatings have been upgraded to shootings due to even poorer morale.

If you don’t like alcohol, that’s a good thing. Keep not liking alcohol. There’s nothing wrong with that.
