  • Sounds like the best way to cripple your scientific and tech sector.

  • Or I could… not base my views on history entirely off of Wikipedia articles?

    So... first you believe Wikipedia, now you don't, based on whichever articles suit your views?

  • The Irish Famine was a genocide, because it was intentional. I should’ve clarified I mean that famines can be genocides, but are not inherently genocidal.

    I’ll note that your own source says in the very first line:

    While scholars are in consensus that the cause of the famine was man-made, whether the Holodomor constitutes a genocide remains in dispute

    Here's a quote from the Irish Famine (same source: wikipedia)

    Virtually all historians reject the claim that the British government's response to the famine constituted a genocide, their position is partially based on the fact that with regard to famine related deaths, there was a lack of intent to commit genocide.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Famine_(Ireland)#Genocide_question

    So you have two options:

    1. You either accept both as a genocide
    2. Or you basically pick-and-choose based on whichever country was responsible for the genocide.

    My guess is that you'll take the second option.

  • Famines are not genocides lol. Though I suppose you could make the case that the embargo on the USSR caused a lot of excess deaths. Famines were extremely common before the USSR took power because it was a pre-industrial society, the USSR ended that. Also, the USSR is a completely different government from the Russian Federation.

    How do you feel about the Irish Famine?

  • lmao Russia had nothing at all to do with January 6th buddy, that was all Trump

    I wonder where Trump got his support from. 🤔

  • The Russian anti-war activists are clearly holding up their end of the bargain. Why are you not holding up yours?

    Ah! To be young and naive enough to believe that the anti-war activists in Russia have any leverage. They will all end up in Siberia or jumping out of a window.

    Any regime change in Russia will come from the oligarchs, and the Russian working class will still be in a bad position (if not worse).

  • In both cases there was Russian meddling involved.

    I guess Ukrainians are just better at rioting?

  • Ukraine's parliament had overwhelmingly approved of finalizing the Agreement with the EU, but Russia had put pressure on Ukraine to reject it.

    How is this in any shape or form analogous to the Jan 6th?

  • I disagree that the previous government was a puppet government.

    Of course you do, that's my point.

    Tankies will support whichever government aligns with a power that is not the US. Even if that power is a capitalist oligarchy like Russia.

    The US has a long history of installing far-right governments, has an atrocious record of human rights, and violates sovereignty left and right

    They do, but the enemy of your enemy is not always your friend.

    Specially when you take into account what Russia has done. They have a long history of erasing East European cultures (i.e. Russification), and genocide. So I do not trust them when it comes to Eastern European affairs, and neither do native people from those countries, most of support for Russia in those areas comes from Russian minorities (I wonder how they got there).

  • You did not answer my question.

    Did you support the Ukrainians rebelling against their government back in 2013. Or do you only support a side if that side happens to oppose the US?

  • Vietnam was opposing a puppet government imposed by the US.

    The Ukrainians opposed a Russian puppet government in 2013.

    Do you support both Vietnam and Ukraine?

  • Are you aware that it’s possible to want neither NATO tanks nor Russian tanks in Ukraine?

    I am.

    But do you believe Ukraine is able to maintain their territory protected from Russia without NATO's weapon supply?

  • There are two imperialist blocs involved in the conflict, and it doesn’t matter which one of them technically started it.

    I'm sorry, but when it involves one imperialist bloc invading a smaller country, then it does matter.

    Do you have the same position regarding the Vietnam war, Palestine, Iraq, and Afghanistan? Or do you only support whichever side is not aligned with the US?

  • Russian pacifists want Russia to stop invading Ukraine.

    Lemmygrad / Hexbear pacifists want Ukraine to appease Russia and give up territory.

    They are not the same.

  • Any love for Kubernetes here?

    Jump

  • Yes, those are all great uses of it. But could all still be achieved with docker containers running on some machines at home, right?

    Have you ever had a situation where features provided by kubernetes (like replicas, load balancers, etc) came in handy?

    I'm not criticizing, I'm genuinely curious if there's a use-case for kubernetes for personal self-hosting (besides learning).

  • Any love for Kubernetes here?

  • Seems a bit overkill for a personal use selfhosting set-up.

    Personally, I don't need anything that requires multiple replicas and loadbalencers.

    Do people who have homelabs actually need them? Or is it just for learning?

  • I love blogs, specially from people with niche interests and experiences. I follow them via RSS. So that's what I read outside of Lemmy / Reddit / Mastodon.

    Recently I've been following the blog written by an IT guy working in a research station in Antarctica (also has a great domain name).
