  • Joplin enjoyer here, I love being able to use it across all my devices synced to a NextCloud instance, I was a bit hesitant with the syncing feature at first because I thought I'd have to constantly deal with silly sync conflicts, but I have not had one syncing issue for the past 4 years or so using this app.

    Organizing notes could not get any easier. I personally don't need much out of a note-taking app that already has everything I need, but it's worth mentioning that it's extensible with plugins (not to the same degree as Obsidian of course). Would definitely recommend.

  • Personally, I would've preferred you responded with xenophobic slurs targeted at Arabs like me than with whatever LLM answer this is supposed to be, but you do you I guess. I would've almost taken you seriously... almost.

    So here, let me throw a random ass quote at you:

    And so, indeed, is the Orientalist attitude in general [referring to a quote by shitlib Isaiah Berlin]. It shares with magic and with mythology the self-containing, self-reinforcing character of a closed system, in which objects are what they are because they are what they are, for once, for all time, for ontological reasons that no empirical material can either dislodge or alter. The European encounter with the Orient, and specifically with Islam, strengthened this system of representing the Orient and, as has been suggested by Henri Pirenne, turned Islam into the very epitome of an outsider against which the whole of European civilization from the Middle Ages on was founded. The decline of the Roman Empire as a result of the barbarian invasions had the paradoxical effect of incorporating barbarian ways into Roman and Mediterranean culture, Romania; whereas, Pirenne argues, the consequence of the Islamic invasions beginning in the seventh century was to move the center of European culture away from the Mediterranean, which was then an Arab province, and towards the North.

  • Huh, and wdym by that? What was the idea you tried to share that got you censored?

  • It's not hard to see why the post was deleted on the other comm, the mods there take editorializing very seriously, you especially crossed that line with the FUD headline and post.

    The updated rootkit will be uploaded and installed to your computer kernel automatically upon closure of the deal.

    This isn't in defense of EA, and I'm aware of their anti-cheats and many like it having kernel-level access, but how do you know this? Where is this coming from? How will it be magically installed once the deal is closed? When will it be installed? Who's to say it hasn't been "installed" already, years long before any of this deal thing came up? Would you have come up with that conclusion if Saudi Arabia's PIF wasn't part of the deal/mentioned in the article? Does this apply to every single EA game from their catalogue (IIRC some games aren't locked-in to the Origin client)?

    If these questions are difficult to answer, then there's your problem.

  • oh no my treats!!

  • إن شاء الله 🙏

    (I wish cross-instance access to emotes was a thing)

  • Oh this person? lmfaoo, just your average Pro Hong Kong separatism, China Innately Bad, Hamas-are-just-like-the-Zionists-actually, Uyghur-Genocide-Believing chud.

    They got all the usual lib zingers in that very thread, and it's hard to tell if they're a troll or they're completely serious.

  • I will never understand the tendency for Global South countries to roll out the red carpet for ghouls that are directly associated with Western Imperialism, whether right after liberation from said imperialism or not.

  • tbf, Latinos were always on that list, and for a long while too... To prove this, they invented the term "America's Backyard".

  • Removed Deleted

    Kanye got his own Epstein list

  • Curious George and Patrick, how could they!

  • What are "slightly right of left leaning" opinions that got you or someone you know censored?

  • This video comes off as more in favor of white people of saying the n-word. The video creator never says that it’s wrong for white people to say the n-word. He starts the video by saying he’s not trying to get anyone in trouble. The video creator is very careful to say that other people believe it’s bad to say the word, without saying that he thinks it’s bad. It feels like the video creator is trying to make the point of “all these people said it, why can’t I?”.

    it's literally just:

    on full display.

  • Gotta be honest... I have not heard of that incident until I stumbled upon that comment (not an indication of how much coverage that's gotten, it's likely just me, but I digress).. but from the few minutes of searching her name up, literally every major outlet has her name plastered on the headlines, istg that part's not hard to miss..

  • I was always ambivalent (yet leaning closer to negative) towards IDubbz after seeing his apology vid. Still comes out very lib, on that same video, if memory serves me right, he refers to the genocide as the "Israel-Palestine Conflict".. At least he won't appeal to a rabbid 4chan-esque community of edgy reactionaries anymore.

    also fuck.. I never know if it's a good idea to just straight up link the YouTube video I want to share so that the bot can just generate the links or use redirect.invidious.io so that up-to-date invidious instances are shown... gahh.... Thanks for the heads-up, I'm just going to link to the original YT link.

  • Something..... always.... happens (for the worst) 😞

  • Comprador to the core..

  • Google Account deletion in theory should delete all data stored in Google, but that theory rests on Google following up on what basically amounts to a pinky promise. As long as you don't have anything important stored anywhere, like in your Google Drive/Photos, etc.., it should be fine.

  • I think it was peak... but for indie games (right towards the end of Flash, god bless its security-flawed soul). The Decade of the Indie Games gave us Minecraft, Castle Crashers, VVVVVV, Fez, Undertale and Celeste to name a few.

  • Abbas thanked the world leaders who have stood up for Palestinians throughout the Gaza war

    Who?

    ...saying that the recent recognition of Palestinian statehood has presented his people with hope for peace and an end to the conflict..

    Oh for fuck's sake... the boot just had to be licked like that, didn't it.

  • and even if it was the same woman, it's such an unimportant detail to get all pearl-clutchy over... Wait a second.. Hold on... I'm getting new reports of something equally as suspicious... That mysterious guy that was and still is present in almost every meeting that Donald Trump was in turned out to be.... some guy named "JD Vance" 😱
