Just like some Zyxel devices. Disgusting

Unprovoked

Unprovoked?! The guy was about to kill the buffalo. That was self defense.

I’m Italian.

The governments have been talking about it since the 90s. They OK’d 15 billions but will likely cost the double and much of it will be wasted in bureaucracy and corruption. Nonetheless this money will not be spent solely on the bridge, but also to enhance the entire Sicilian railway network.

Also Sicily has 5 millions of inhabitants, it’s a lot of people, served only by slow and downsized boats. It takes hours to go through the strait. Furthermore it’s great both for the people and for the goods to be able to reach Berlin from Palermo by train.

I don’t know whether this is the right choice and whether Italy has enough resources to accomplish that, but if it works out I think it’s a great opportunity.

Well since I have a chance to be seen from the developer of Piefed: thank you for your work. The more options we have, the better.

I don’t like the fact that users receive a banner next to their name if they get downvoted a lot. This makes other people judge negatively the comment even before reading it. I think it also encourages people to keep downvoting and discourages to upvote (as what happens with mass down votes of a comment on Reddit just for the sake of doing so).

Edit: sorry for my English, it’s not my native language + I just woke up

In the code there is a function that recognizes if the name of the community contains “meme” and if so does not add the upvote to the vote counter of the user

Not “mainlined” means that the changes are not in the official Linux kernel. Only Asahi works on the M series

Once I saw on lemmy bots responding to each other (pretending to be Russian citizens or just pro-Russian individuals) and they started saying something like “I am an AI assistant, how can I help you” lmao

Absolutely. I am not the person you replied to but I have no problems admitting that China or Russia can be better than the West in some aspects, for example what you said. Likewise I have no problems saying that the West is flawed and that capitalism is killing people while billionaires rent Venice for a wedding party, in fact, I am the first opponent of that.

What I can’t stand is people claiming that North Korea is not a dictatorship, China is democratic and Russia, poor them, was forced into invading other countries.

No no no. You are allowed to suck the cock of communist regimes only

I’ve came across too many .ml posts about praising North Korea, China and Russia. Had to block the whole instance.

Even !memes@lemmy.ml was full of this shit, but the mods didn’t do anything to prevent it (but instead removed comments like “NK is a dictatorship”)

I don’t think it’s entirely the banks’ fault. In UK pro-Palestinians are “terrorists” and anti-terrorism procedures require the freezing of assets.

People would think twice before flying Palestinian flags when they won’t be able to afford food anymore and face terrorism charges. We live in a dystopia and that’s very sad.

Note how normal people have no issues saying that Democrats may be (or likely are) in the Epstein files, but MAGAs are like “The files are a hoax but if they exist he is not in them but if he’s in them it’s just a juvenile mistake, who cares”

Enlighten me on those communities please

Maybe if you didn’t colonize the land of brown people you would see no parallelism between the two. Hypocrites.

But without federation questions and answers reside only on one server

What is unsafe about cell communication is that there is virtually no way to prevent being tracked. Bluetooth is not necessarily more secure but has several advantages:

1. Its Mac address can be easily changed. With a fake Mac address it’s more difficult to track someone down, albeit it needs some “technical skills” (going in the developer settings)
2. With these apps communication is encrypted by default unlike cell tower communication
3. The range is limited. If police listens over Bluetooth they’ll be able to track less people down

At protests you should not bring your smartphone but instead rely on anonymous drvices such as Meshtastic.

If you want to bring your smartphone to a protest, set Airplane mode and communicate with others through Bluetooth or WiFi networks using Briar or Bitchat
