  • The lawsuits haven't even started. This is very very bad for them.

  • The "soft on crime" line is completely broken, though. They can't use it against her because the response is how she built a career around holding felons like Donald Trump accountable, and nothing else. There is zero comeback.

  • He said that in-between getting shot and his acceptance speech, then went right back to the same old bullshit.

  • Oh, of course U.S. policy at large won't change. It hasn't for decades. The difference here, for the election at least, is that Kamala doesn't have to balance words vs actions. Biden and Trump have both lost Arab-Americans. Kamala doesn't have that challenge.

  • Don't also forget the liability Biden had with Arab-Americans over Gaza. Kamala is not Commander-in-Chief, so even though she's part of the administration she carries none of that baggage.

    Can't wait to see what the disinformation brigade cooks up for Lemmy now that they can't keep complaining about Gaza.

  • Can you link to that picture?

  • "Biden wins the election. Here's why that's bad for Biden."

  • RIP anything made of linen.

  • Bro has never owned a piece of clothing made of linen in his life.

  • I quite like the originals. While I'm big fan of spicy stuff (I get one level down from maximum spicy at a local Indian place), I tried x2 and saw a glimmer of what people might like about it, but it was a step too far for me, where it lost flavor for the sake of spiciness. x3 has got to be straight battery acid. I don't know how any human can buy those saying "Yep, this is the level I enjoy."

    YSK: lemmy.ml is managed by tankies, and lead lemmy developer is a tankie

  • I was trying to point out the hypocrisy of branding your instance to be about privacy and security when tankie-glorified regimes don't respect that at all, and they're instead mildly pushing people in that direction. Why not use something from the EFF pages on those topics? Nice strawman, though.

  • Joined Lemmy.ml because it was supposed to be a security, privacy and FOSS focused community

    Yep that's the line the developers put up there to lure people in. It's mildly disingenuous at best. Having to copy a line from a document titled "The Principles of Communism" just to sign up should've tipped you off that something was a bit weird.

    Join an instance that has more lax federation standards and subscribe to the ml communities you care about, or get comfortable with defederation and people from other instances discarding your opinions. It's a choice you need to make.

  • That is quite simple. You're the only one to provide a coherent answer so far so thanks for that.

    I'm looking for a bit more info though. Did you get any other benefits besides the equivalent of warm fuzzies? Sounds like an extremely outsized cost/benefit assessment you had to confirm.

  • Why was it worth it? What benefits did you gain from the change?

  • Probably RT.

  • This is such a Lemmy take, good god.

    "Cloudflare has been around for over a decade and doesn't do anything nefarious with my data and have never shown any intention of doing so... but, consider this for a moment... what if they DID?"

  • Unless you're planning on installing the panels yourself, the price is actually going up now because the labor component of the installation is growing faster than the equipment prices are declining. Furthermore, many utilities are trying to enact regressive metering policies that will make ROI nearly impossible to achieve over the life of the panels.

    The best time to install was the year the IRA was signed into law. The second best time is now.

  • How do you know if someone is a Linux user? Don't worry, they'll tell you. Lump them in with Vegans and Crossfitters.
