Squizzy,

This is to showcase what they have to encourage them to pay up, but yeah I agree. All I’m thinking is it looks fun and it’s not even a legitimate teaser.

Squizzy,

350,000 by Christmas… that’s some heavy losses over the last 6 weeks. Unbelievable

Squizzy,

Pet owmers absolutely do damage too, let’s not pretend they are blameless here.

Squizzy,

It isn’t probable given the current information and your second point negates it.

Squizzy,

Because it is hardly the probable cause when you outline the most likely a known cause in the next line.

Squizzy,

The Russians have been cheating for how long anyway!? I’d never trust a win from them. Olympics is shite now

Squizzy,

I think it is ridiculous to behave like this in what should be a respectable position but unless this is something done every year I can understand being against it now.

Squizzy,

Why, how was my comment deleted from this thread?

Squizzy,

Is my original comment viewable for you? I can’t see it and it’s not in my history anymore.

When I go the the post I can’t see this thread at all.

Squizzy,

God of War Ragnarok was the only game I played all year I’d say. Simplest wrap up, didn’t even platinum it.

Your Smart TV Knows What You’re Watching (themarkup.org)

These TVs can capture and identify 7,200 images per hour, or approximately two every second. The data is then used for content recommendations and ad targeting, which is a huge business; advertisers spent an estimated $18.6 billion on smart TV ads in 2022, according to market research firm eMarketer.

Squizzy,

Worst part about this is I have an OLED, if I use a different device for features I risk burn. Netflix on the tv will show a screensaver and go black after 2 minutes. Pressing pause on Netflix on the ps5 or appletv means you get a static screen until you return.

I wish we could get what we pay for and not be products ourselves.

New Yorkers march on Wall St. to demand an end to US funding of Israel : Peoples Dispatch (peoplesdispatch.org)

People in New York City once again took to the streets to demand a permanent ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza and an end US aid to Israel. Protesters marched from Foley Square to NYC City Hall, Wall Street, and Washington Square Park to raise their demands. The protest took place as the United Nations Security Council was...

Squizzy,

Don’t get the downvoted, I’m not sure about the CIA but the telegraph has stated the same from their own investigation

Squizzy,

Is DBAN still the go to for a clean wipe?

Squizzy,

I haven’t a clue, I just never chanced it. When I’d sell a PC I’d always DBAN it.

€45,000 for a heat pump retrofit in Germany -- really? (www.bbc.co.uk)

Germany is struggling to get people on-board with a green energy movement that involves banning high footprint domestic heating systems (e.g. gas boilers)-- thus forcing people to migrate to heat pumps. A low-income family who was interviewed said it would cost €45k to install a heat pump in their terraced home in Bremen....

Squizzy,

Cavity filled insulation is very common and relatively cheap. I know people who did it themselves with an expanding foam gun and multiple cases of foam.

Squizzy,

He specifically stated he had a cavity. If you don’t you can do external cladding insulation and internal insulation.

Squizzy,

I love Joe Danger and I want to play it without a subscription on a modern console 😞

Squizzy,

You should be very proud of that government official. Well done to them

Squizzy,

Yeah I got eaten alive on here the other day for saying they felt stilted in their movement.

To be honest I think the art style is a small bit dated, it looks very similar to GTA V. I’m not entirely against it but it’s difficult to see where the improvements are so far, granted it is only a teaser.

Squizzy,

That game looks unreal and intense

Squizzy,

GTA 4 was definitely a more realistic take

Squizzy,

Yeah maybe you’re right there, I’m not an artist so I don’t know the terminology but looking back there were strong shaded features and such.

Squizzy,

Yep same here

Squizzy,

Can anyone explain what happened DDG? They used to have very objective searching and now it is really targeted, which they claim they don’t do.

For example if I search a random term or product I will get a niche buy and sell website that only serves my country and with results from my immediate region. I do disable the location functionality and it just stays the same or switches them up but they’re there close to the top.

Squizzy,

Reality Check for Putin as Russians Get Damn Tired of War Julia Davis Published Dec. 04, 2023 8:01PM EST

Russia’s relentless TV propaganda has entered a heavily depressed new era.

The trend began last month when audio from a duo of Russian pranksters apparently tricking the Italian prime minister into making an unguarded remark surfaced.

In the clip, which was recorded in September, Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexei Stolyarov (known as Vovan and Lexus) are posing as African diplomats and a voice that sounds like Meloni candidly admits that fatigue has set in with respect to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine: “There is a lot of tiredness on all sides.”

For weeks afterwards, the Russian state media has publicized the call, in continuation of the latest propaganda narrative that the West is tired of Ukraine and wants to negotiate a deal with the Kremlin. Russian talking heads proudly assert that Moscow is not interested in any deals and pontificate about invading other countries to continue the expansion of the Russian empire.

This preposterous propaganda is designed to obscure a crucial detail: that the Russians are also sick and tired of an invasion conceived by their perennial leader, with no end in sight.

In recent months, Sergey Mardan, one of the hosts on Vladimir Solovyov’s channel, Solovyov Live, started to wonder out loud why his boss’s relentless coverage of the war and its “heroes” isn’t gaining traction on social media or being picked up by other state TV channels. Solovyov himself noticed the waning public attention and mentioned it last week on his morning show, The Full Contact. He complained that “people are psychologically tired of this topic” and asked his viewers to let him know what they’re actually interested in.

Tired or not, any dreams of a potential reprieve were extinguished when Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree boosting Russia’s troop numbers by 15 percent or some 170,000 people. This will bring the overall number of Russian military personnel to about 2.2 million, including 1.32 million troops. The Russian Defense Ministry blamed NATO for the required increase and claimed that it would be achieved solely through the recruitment of volunteers and not through conscription or mobilization.

The wives of those who were mobilized in the beginning of the invasion have recently started to express their outrage—not with the evils of a genocidal war against the neighboring nation, but with the fact that their husbands are yet to be relieved through rotation. The women authored a petition and disseminated stickers that said, “Bring my husband back. I’m fucking tired of this.” This movement is currently being strangled, with participating military wives being taken in for questioning and threatened with being potentially charged for “discrediting the army.”

Putin’s decree wasn’t meant to address these complaints but merely to fill the gaps created by Russia’s massive casualties, while the true extent of the losses remains taboo within the country. During his Saturday show on Solovyov Live, Mardan did his best to dispel the notion that the new infusion of manpower was meant to replenish the 300,000 dead—a number he also denied.

Mardan’s guest, State Duma member Andrey Gurulyov claimed that the decree was designed to address the threats Russia is allegedly facing all over the world: from unnamed Western foes in the Arctic; because of the expansion of the Taiwan crisis; an escalation between North and South Korea, Finland and possibly Sweden joining NATO; the war in the Middle East and issues in the Caucasus.

Gurulyov complained about the militarization of the Baltics, Poland and other countries and added that he couldn’t rule out another mobilization. Instead of acknowledging that multiple countries are preparing to defend themselves from Russian aggression, Gurulyov portrayed them as the potential aggressors, encircling Russia and plotting to attack it. He asserted, “Today, our army should be ready for WWIII.”

Beyond the shrinking cadre of soldiers available to bolster Putin’s wars, Russia’s workforce is also being depleted. Last Tuesday, during the broadcast of the state TV show 60 Minutes, Dmitry Abzalov, Director of the Center for Strategic Communications, noted: “Our main problem, the limiting factor, is the absence of the workforce. Next year, our GDP may decrease because we are shorthanded.” Abzalov hinted that the workers were sent to the frontlines or moved to work in the factories producing weapons, equipment and ammunition for the military.

Host Evgeny Popov pointed out that one of Putin’s recent decrees was meant to address this problem, by simplifying the process of repatriation of Russians currently living in other countries. He added, “This is being done because we don’t have enough people.” State Duma member Leonid Kalashnikov proposed importing workers from North Korea.

Head of RT Margarita Simonyan had an even better idea.

Last Sunday, Simonyan appeared on Sunday Evening With Vladimir Solovyov and predicted that Russia’s demographic crisis would be resolved in the not-so-distant future, when desperate Americans will flock to Russia to take up the jobs the locals don’t want. Russia’s self-imposed turmoil is so unrelenting that Putin’s mouthpieces are having to resort to increasingly ridiculous suggestions and predictions—but even they find it challenging to obscure the grim reality with a cheerful demeanor.

Last Thursday, the host of 60 Minutes Olga Skabeeva said, “It seems like lately, every day is significant in some way.” Dmitry Abzalov replied: “Things were so good in the past that now, every day seems to have a special meaning.” Julia Davis Julia Davis @JuliaDavisNews

Squizzy,

That was done very much so to move the blame off of him for Twitter’s failure.

Squizzy,

It’s only a war crimes if the world gives a fuck

Squizzy,

What are the Spez scandals?

Squizzy,

Any summary or article, I’m not watching the video

Squizzy,

They tendered a contract and this postal service won it, this postal service is taking part in industrial action which is their right and the agency has fulfilled it’s obligation in creating and issuing the plate. The agency can’t go around the company they have agreed will be their sole postal service.

Squizzy,

If the postal service is saying no deliveries until the strike ends and they are housing the packages at a non public place then no, that’s a delivery if they manage and facilitate the receiving of the goods.

Yes the government should be able to, it’s how business is done. We agree a price on the grounds that we will not have to compete for the business for x number of years. As for should the government be interfering, I’m sure they would in some backwards countries but strong unions exist for the people. A government that facilitates strong unions would know not to.

Squizzy,

Outlook been doing it awhile, so cheap and shitty.

Squizzy,

I have a Lenovo tablet, bar being useless to me as piece of tech it is very functional and continues to get updates.

Squizzy,

But these are the exploiters

Squizzy,

Any hope of getting a new GoW game really soon, I can’t wait for the next game.

Squizzy,

Pure teasing is all franchises do now, never any consequence or real movement.

I’d love to see something actually drastic happen in these shows, Marvel had the snap and have fumbled since.

Squizzy,

Absolutely fucked that franchise, it is so boring now. All of Ahsoka was shit, like they literally forgot to put the pay off…but they didn’t that’ll be somewhere else so you have to watch that.

Group should have stayed gone.

Squizzy,

I will never mistake a Nintendo for being powerful

Squizzy,

You can tag images in loads of galleries in the app store

Squizzy,

I didn’t realise people were struggling to find good music? Even in the mainstream there is a high bar at the moment with lyrics and production being championed.

Masta Ace is unreal

Squizzy,

God damn you guys have some great looking words

Squizzy,

That personel jump is pretty big, it crossed 300k and then was closing in on 310k. Seems like a big jump, especially given the UKs numbers only corssed 300k this week.

Squizzy,

Yes, obviously the Ukraine numbers will err on the side of positivity but the UK numbers are seen as slightly more factual…at least by the UK media given I get my information from the Guardian podcast. They said 300k around the time Ukraine said 308k.

Squizzy,

I didn’t know we were on RCS which proves the point I guess. I do open my texts though.

Squizzy,

My God this is a tiresome side of Lemmy, I like the idea of ownership and all that but streaming offers more than access it is convenient and cheap access to a wider range than possible to download.

Squizzy,

Cool, I have really niche shit you’ve never heard of and as soon as you do hear about it you can find it and listen immediately.

Why am I lazy because I don’t take the long way around to the fun part to things?

Squizzy,

Cool you do that and we’ll be over here enjoying ourselves

Squizzy,

He is not the sole owner, he took it private with other people .
