  • These Hamas recruits are fucking insane man. LOL

  • Absolutely, I'm dying for some details, and what a massive loss for Russia. If true, they won't be able to use these most effectively (having to force them to stand off) or possibly at all (deoensing on what happened). That would definitely be massive

  • Its not that people have missed the joke, it's that the joke is poorly formed and not hyperbolic enough to be funny, instead it's rather a half joke and brings up a larger issue (intentional or not), that undermines the attempt at absurdist humor.

    I find Dunning-Kruger to be funny.

  • 100% agree.

    Worldnews terrorists and terrorist sympathizers have driven off a ton of people. I see your comment echoed regularly. A lot of people who reluctantantly have returned to Reddit have said the same thing. And they drive more people off Lemmy than anything else.

    The WorldNews group specifically is a hot spot for terrorist recruitment. I genuinely hope that there's serious intelligence gathering going on and flagging these radicals. I regularly file reports when they're advocating terrorism and other illegal activities.

    These nutters are dangerous, and the group continues to get worse all the time. Their trajectory is literally a case study in indoctrination, then ultimately becoming active terrorists or providing material support to terrorists. When you see the really off the deep end shit, be sure to report it.

    They regularly debate that there's no such thing as terrorism. Which is a screaming red flag.

  • People, like you, who post good news stories are the BEST. Thank you!

  • I don't envy you that miserable decision. And I get that you've evaluated everything and personally feel it's worth gambling that they don't fuck you and make it pointless, all that effort, bringing the game to market.

    I'm rooting for you here, and I hope everything works out!

    I feel just as awful for anyone who has an overwhelming port or even an impossible port. It's just miserable.

  • Heh, all Arab states were established fairly recently. LOL.

    And holy shit. At least we are done. You're an apologist for terrorists. As I tell a lot of radicalized kids on here who are Hamas aligned or members, you need to self reflect and get out of your bubble.

    You're heading down a super dangerous direction that could ruin your life. Take a step back, and take a breath. And step away. When you come back, expose yourself to something other than Hamas propaganda, and the Lemmy echo chamber.

    Your assertion that "Oct. 7th wasn't a terrorist attack", is a crazy huge red flag warning. I won't try to reason with you anymore. You're clearly past reason.

    I wish you the best of luck and hope you turn away from embracing terroism before you become an active participant.

    I've never seen a better recruiting place for Hamas than Lemmy. It's super dangerous, and needs to be addressed.

  • For this reason, he said, “we stand firmly against a political instrumentalization” of the Convention.

    Which is exactly whats happening. And in the process its demeaning and devaluing the convention. Much like happens constantly in Lemmy WorldNews.

    Israel’s six legal representatives asserted that the ICJ has no jurisdiction over the complaints brought by South Africa since they relate to the laws of armed conflict, not genocide; argued that “random” inflammatory comments of Israeli politicians did not reflect policy determined in the state bodies making war policy; and insisted that the widespread harm to Palestinian civilians during the war was a result of Hamas’s massive use of civilian infrastructure for military purposes, and not genocidal acts

    It's nice when sanity and reality rear their heads. That's going to rial up the Hamas members and supporters here ON Lemmy.

  • Wait, people are still using Unity after they clearly demonstrated they'll fuck you on a whim? Honestly, seems like everyone's been given a fair warning about dealing with these scumbags. I get migrating a codebase is a motherfucker, and sometimes it is even easier to redevelop much or all of the project. But again, if you're renting retail space from someone who is a psychopath, bipolar, and an arsonist (Unity in this case), and they might burn your shop down at any moment, sometimes you gotta move!

  • Because when your legislators write laws (read, have them handed to them by the party with a direct interest) they do it for campaign donations because everything is money. Capitalism's end stage is corporatocracy and oligarchy. Surprise, we're there! Legislation in a healthy democracy/republic is written for the benefit of the citizens, but we stopped being a democratic republic long ago. In capitalism, legislation is written to maximize profit at all expense, including the health, welfare, and best interests of the citizens.

    This isn't new, study the history of the East India Trading Company. The difference is lack a monarch to dissolve the company (and it's not just one company anymore). The founders remembered the lesson of East India Trading Company and corporate charters in the US used to be temporary, and you had to show a benefit to the citizens. It's one reason conservatives, republicans, and capitalists don't want strong education and history lessons. Corporations in the past were NOT people, and they better benefit society or they could swiftly have their charter revoked and dissolved.

    This is a repeat, but even more successful than in the past. But when your populous has no education it seems brand new!

  • All mine hate capitalism. Though, I think we're saying the same thing. ;)

  • Just reading a mild, reasonable, even keel’d post made my day. I appreciate you!

  • I'm all sorts of fine with condem atrocities and war crimes. I hate Bibi and Likud and would love to see the whole lot of them tried. And wewilli be on the same page up to Oct. I'm all for prosecuting collective punishment and other Israeli war crimes pre october. And every rocket fired at civilians was a war crime, and I'm for prosecuting the tens of thousands of those incidents. and other Hamas' greatest hits like suicide bombings and bus bombings.

    The Palestinians have rejected 2-state 4 or 5 times, both pre and post. Roughly '37, '47, '67, '00, '08. And Israel has agreed to it multiple times and has been agreeable to it.. Go look it up. It's not hard to find. It's just a more inconvenient fact for Lemmy.

    Also, dirty Jerusalem, which NOBODY should get. Since these fucking murderous religious trash of all varieties can't behave. They should just forbid it to everyone. Go kindergarten on them. "Now nobody gets to play with it". Much of the rejection of 2 state is fucking Jerusalem. Religion makes everything horrible.

    And Palestinians DID elect Hamas, elected them to destrogy israel and the Jews. And they're more popular than ever. If they held elections today, they'd win easily both in Gaza and West Bank. Abbas is fucked and about to lose power completely.

    Hamas is the government there. When people say aid to the Palestinians, what they mean is give money and food and fuel to Hamas (they literally handle it) amd then they also steal it and tell the citizens that Isreal is starving you. It'd great PR both in and outside of Gaza. It works wonders here eith Lemmy radical terrorist supporters and sympathizers.

  • Agree. Especially pre-october.

    But right now, the lines are blured. It's why anti-semtic incidents, attacks, vandalism, etc. have spiked since the terrorists attacked Israel. And rhe most incidents of all occur at the "pro-palestinan rallies", that turn pro-Hamas super easily.

  • Kind of a strawman, I'd like everything to be FOSS, and if we keep Capitalism (which we shouldn't), it should be HEAVILY regulated not the laissez-faire corporatocracy / oligarchy we have now.

    I don't want any for-profit capitalists to have any control of AI. It should all be owned by the public and all productive gains from it taxed at 100%. But open source AI models, right on.

    And team SciHub--FUCK YEAH!

  • This is just a more recent mash up of the “China Bad” and “Nobody Wants To Work Anymore” meme

    LOL, spot on.

  • General purpose AI robots will take manual labor, and specialized AI machinery. It already does in many manufacturing plants, just b/c the robots running algorithms and using machine learning don't look like human arms doesn't mean they're not already there and taking jobs.

    The current capitalists do NOT plan to get rid of capitalism. They think they're going to get hundreds of percent productivity gains while cutting the workforce by 90%+. It is society as a whole, and all of us who aren't the 1% that are going to have to get rid of capitalism. It will have to be French Revolution style.

    There won't be MORE wage slaves, not when there's no need to pay people at all. That's rather the point. Capitalism literally can't work without wage slaves--that's its end state (where we are now). All the wealth concentrated into the hands of the feudal lords, the peasants toil and the lords take all the spoils. But in this case you're going to have robotic peasants, and a whole group of have nothings, who are also unemployed with no prospects--usually that equals civil war. Though there's a chance that you could get the militarized tech and actually win against a peasant revolt now. Huge population reduction, still maintain the quality of life for the lords, and maximum dystopia.

    And you’ll like it too, you’ll embrace Toxic Positivity as the corporate mantra right up until the oceans acidify and the billionaires have long gone underground into their bunkers hoping to repopulate the Earth once the rest if us have all eaten each other.

    I don't think you really mean to talk for me. But I can tell you that it's EVERY survivor's duty to bury the rich in their bunkers when they go scurry off. ;)

    This will be a unique turning point because we're about to get to where you don't need the people who normally revolt and fight a civil war to be alive. The capitalists are eyeballing a future without the need for the bulk of the population. I hope we don't let them get there.

  • Def. ;) I was just throwing out easy low hanging fruit on a thread.
