Things would not get better, they’d just charge more to increase profit margins. Haven’t you ever lived under Capitalism before?

People are allowed to post what they want, you’re allowed to post any pro ukraine stuff you like. You can’t just piss and cry because people have different opinions than you, and can link pro-western sources backing up their point of view. The mind bending is unreal.

For a Trekkie, You do know Star Trek is supposed to be influenced by a post resource scarcity communist society right?

Dual boot doesn’t work anymore with win11, it requires secure boot to be enabled, so the grub boot loader won’t work. Idk if anyone has found a work around though.

God forbid someone tries to have a well rounded opinion on the situation through all the western propaganda by contributing articles outside of the one narrative you choose to believe.

That’s just not true. Ukraine has not even gotten through the first defense line anywhere along the front. Where are you referring to with them knocking on the second line?

ToastyWaffles, (edited )
@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

I’m not sure if Robotyne has completely been taken by AFU or not, but that’s not part of the “first line of defense”. These are outer/forward defense positions. We aren’t totally sure what portion of Russian defense units are manning these forward positions however, and the RFAF have tried to build up fortification around the area, but its not the first official line, which is maybe where people get confused.

If you look at this image, I’ve labelled the two main lines of the Russian defenses from deepstatemap:

And here I’ve circled in blue, an example of what portion of the Defense in Depth doctrine, Robotyne and areas where AFU has made gains, these parts of the front are equivalent to:

I don’t mean to shit on anyone who would rather use an open source decentralized platform over privately owned Reddit, but Lemmy.World is definitely the most obnoxious large instance, with a lot of people still holding over a lot of those reddit toxicity mannerisms. On top of that the admins/devs of that instance are always having major technical issues that they can’t seem to overcome. Wish them the best though.

ToastyWaffles,
@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Seriously, at least on Jerboa you can literally just swap between accounts. You can subscribe to certain communities on each account or just filter by All. People complain too much.

ToastyWaffles,
@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Then don’t use lemmy.world it’s that simple. Communities can have whatever outside connections they want. Lemmy.world is the big normie/liberal/redditor instance. If that’s not what you want you can always join another instance closer to your tastes/beliefs/management style.

ToastyWaffles,
@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

God forbid you have to make an additional account that takes 2mins so you can do your pirating! Only people complaining probably aren’t worth listening to, and don’t really understand how the fediverse is meant to work.

Anything that doesn’t regurgitate my neoliberal colonialist viewpoint is Russian/Chinese propaganda!! Yes I am not biased or subject to propaganda, I just get my views from reddit world news. /s

I really don’t think so. They literally had a scene where they were debriefing the scientists of the effect of the bomb and the types of wounds and deaths it caused. They could of just showed the slides they were going over there.

Still think it’s a good movie, and for me this is a minor critique, but still something they could have done.

Sorry but Orthodox Christians don’t really respect the Pope. It was the Pope that broke away from the church, and past Patriarchs have all stated that it is the Catholic church that will need to mend the rift for going against church doctrine, not the other way around.

Not that organized religion is good in any respect, but just trying to give the Orthodox perspective, and why they wouldn’t actually care what the Pope says.

Just name it ‘X App’ problem solved. Anyone who has ever uploaded an app image to the app store should be well aware of the rules involved here and the Apple manual review process.

@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Haha almost exactly what I just said and it looks like you already said it. To me this just shows that the people working there right now actually have no idea what’s going on, or at least the way the decision making structure is unable to hear any feedback from the technical team in charge of implementation. Like this is mobile app developer 101 stuff.

/r/politics is just DNC lib screeching and astroturfing. Nothing leftist about it. At least not since Sanders lost the primaries in 2016. That was the first major shift there.

You can subscribe to subs that don’t talk about it and unsubscribe from the ones that do.

There will be a lot of growing pains as communities take time to migrate over, discuss the drama, have new communities created, seeing over time which ones are moderated in ways you enjoy.

Tldr: take it easy, you and the communities will sort themselves out in time.

Then good thing when they developed the platform they didn’t make it a legal requirement for you to make an account and browse only Lemmygrad.

Just because you have a frothing hatred of China doesn’t mean everyone does. It seems totally reasonable to compare the US (the world superpower) to the up and coming main competitor.

ToastyWaffles,
@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Because they believe what they are doing is right and just (even if you or I disagree). There are shit ton of Zionist fundamentalists in Israel, and the demographics are only getting worse, as the fundamentalists are having more children then the more liberal and progressive Israelites.

You can’t inventivize people to work to death if they have free housing and healthcare - some neoliberal probably

ToastyWaffles,
@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

It honestly depends on your local municipality. Where I live they don’t take anything but straight up hard plastic that is cleaned, and clean cardboard, cleaned tin cans. Anything else they don’t process. And even then they’re probably throwing out the whole truck of recyclables cause one dingus didn’t clean out a can and it got tomato soup on everything else. Recycling is honestly a scam in America, especially once China stopped buying our waste years ago.

You’d be surprised by how much innate anti communist propaganda there is on the internet. You should judge lemmygrad by it’s actions, not what you heard someone else say about the instance without any proof to back it up. The developers of Lemmy made lemmygrad as a separate instance because they knew not everyone is ready to engage in left leaning political discourse to that level, and wanted to create a space where leftists can be without persecution across the fediverse. The entire point is to keep any “tankies” being tankies in that instance, and you have to seek out the instance to engage with it. Yet you find people in other instances frothing at the mouth about the evils of people debunking their false platitudes.

There’s plenty of people on lemmygrad I disagree with on leftist politics/information but it’s a very reasonable community. If you actually provide your sources and proof and don’t convey it in a negative or condescending manner, they will engage with it fairly. I’ve never seen as many sources cited as in lemmygrad.

I think modern capitalist social media has just conditioned everyone to be incredibly vitriolic and hate people for “what” they are and not for anything beyond a label, and when liberal westerners come onto a site where they have to engage people who will call them out on their hypocrisy, they freak out. It’s also especially hard for these people to admit their hypocrisy cause so much of it is based in false information that is spread as cultural facts in the west, and have been since at least the red scare, so they don’t even identify it as propaganda.

There is definitely some pro CPC propaganda and apologists in Lemmygrad, but I can guarantee there is a lot more unjustified hate and propaganda against the CPC and all the good things they’ve done, in other spaces like Reddit and other Lemmy instances.

It's understandably difficult when the Ukrainians fail to make gains, but it's Russian incompetence when they do it?

ToastyWaffles,
@ToastyWaffles@lemmygrad.ml avatar

It's also a factor of Russia not competently executing the initial invasion and got themselves bogged down. Similar to the Germans in WW1 on the western front, they got bogged down before they could take their key objectives, but the eastern front remained mostly mobile during the war because of the vast size of the front, and they eventually won on that front. Because you either win by our maneuvering your enemy an encircling them, or attriting the hell out of them till they have nothing left, and I think the pendulum has swung again towards a defensive advantage, especially with UAVs and remote mine laying systems, and precision artillery munitions.

It's a big part of why US doctrine is so focused on quick fast and overwhelming assaults and a strike first mentality. Even in Desert Storm they were severely worried about being bogged down by the Iraqi Army and starting a prolonged conflict with massive American losses. So it was imperative to flank the Iraqi Army from the western desert by the French Armored Corps.

I think worrying about people making fun of some rich ass billionaires dying for doing something stupid, is the last hill you should choose to die on. These people made their riches and wealth by exploiting normal people like you and me.

You don't have to actively root for their deaths, but I'm certainly not shedding any tears for them experiencing the consequences of their own actions.

Anyone who doesn't think Israel is willingly and consciously committing genocide is living under a rock. This has been their standard operating procedure since at least the 70s. The strategy is to boil the frog just slowly enough to avoid international outrage, and continue to get western aid. But not too quickly as to enrage other Middle Eastern powers.
