That’s cool, but I’m sure it broke the relationship between ip addresses. Like it would be hard to tell if 1 IP was 1 higher or lower than another/ in the same /28 subnet, etc

Probably cinnamon? But I love me some sweet potatoes so it’s 90% for that and 10% other baking things.

Fun fact: before it became mass produced sugar was originally considered a spice

No idea, I didn’t have much trouble with my galaxy though. I think most of the crap comes from the carrier versions so if they have a generic version it’s not too bad.

Yo check out the Galaxy xcover 7. Rugged, large battery, expandable storage, headphone jack, no huge camera array, from a reputable korean company. Looking at upgrading to this phone myself although I can’t bear to let go of my Galaxy s10e

Careful apparently the founder (Rob Braxman) is a scam artist.

Yea but what part of American government would you trust to restrict the speech you don’t like (and only that speech)? In the UK you’ve got the government arresting people for protesting in support of those guys that sprayed paint into the jet engines.

Lemmy mods have always been just as quick to ban and remove as reddit mods, if not faster. Although I feel like it varies more widely because of all the different instances.

I think, in the literal sense you are correct, it is a legal form of violence. But what are you proposing? Saying you hate trans people, you don’t respect them (I’ve never heard conservatives actually call them “subhuman” but it probably does happen) etc. is reprehensible but it’s not illegal, and preventing people from saying mean things to one another is a pretty extreme form of censorship. If I make fun of someone and they later commit suicide should I be charged with a crime?

I don’t personally feel bad that he is dead. The world is probably a better place without him in it. However, I’m disturbed by how gleeful some people are about his death. It shows how callous and radicalized people have become. I know a lot of people will jump in and say it’s rhe right’s fault things have gotten so radicalized, but that’s missing the point. Taking a life should never be easy.

I mean, sure, it’s mostly edgy people talking tough online. Give them Charlie Kirk in a dark alleyway and hand them a gun and 99% of them wouldn’t pull the trigger. But that social media environment does produce killers, and the kind of people it pushes over the edge tend to not be very stable and their actions tend to be pretty horrific. Probably the most famous Lemmy user to date is the man who bombed the fertility clinic. Let’s hope it stays that way.

Thank you for sharing your opinions respectfully - that’s why I’m here too. I try to challenge echo chambers whenever I see them when I have a differing opinion, and on Lemmy that usually positions me to the political right of the people I get into debates with (on Reddit its often the opposite). And I’ve had my mind changed on a few issues along the way- or at least had my views shifted a little.

The world needs more people with your mindset. Cheers.

I still disagree that we are past the point of no return… we literally already voted Trump out of office once when he was pulling similar shit in his first term. In some ways he’s gone farther but, again, in a country with free and fair elections, elections are your recourse not political violence.

Explain to me how you think killing Kirk is a good thing for the country. Like, explain what will happen following his death that somehow leads to fascism being defeated in America.

That is NOT what Kirk said for the record, he said it was a bad thing but the lesser of two evils.

Fair enough I guess, although keep in mind that if you think present day-America has crossed the Rubicon, you would also have said “welp democracy has failed we have to kill the political opposition” about 20 times throughout American history, and been wrong on all but 1 occasion.

Do you think you can end terrorism by killing all the terrorists? Or win the war on drugs by killing all the drug dealers? What makes you think the fight against fascism is any different? We still live in a democratic society. The “fascists” were elected by the majority of the American people, so either the majority of politically active Americans (and Europeans) are fascists or you are being hyperbolic with your language. If elections are suspended, I think there is no alternative to political violence. Until that happens, we should work to unwind Trump and his political movement through nonviolent means.

Also, fascists aren’t scared they are angry. You think Trump is gonna get scared and roll back his policies? No, they are going to double down on everything. This perfectly fits his narrative that force is needed to take America back from the radical left.

People can have different political views than you- even views you know are wrong and abhorrent- and still be good people. In fact, in today’s political and social media environment its remarkably easy to end up being radicalized one way or another. I know you’re not asking for advice but I think it’s worth expressing to your mom that you love her regardless of politics. You don’t have to agree with her views or even accept them, but I don’t think it’s worth damaging your relationship with her over a political disagreement.

Charlie Kirk was not a war criminal. Saying callous things about shooting victims and being a MAGA supporter should not be punished with death.

Lol clearly a joke

Before 1941? I assume you mean before 1939?

I don’t think there’s any equivalence in saying “if you invade Poland we are going to declare war on you” and then doing so (as France and Britain did) and literally teaming up with Hitler to invade Poland (as the Soviet Union did).

Appeasement was a weak strategy but the idea was less that war needed to be avoided at all costs and more that war with Hitler was inevitable but western Europe needed to buy a few months to try to catch up in rearmament. They were just a few months away from fighting the battle of Britain with biplanes.
