  • I bought a Neuphy air 75 off Craigslist a few years ago. I don't know if I've ever charged it.

    I also have a Logitech MX Master that I just toss in a bag with everything else. I bought a $10 dongle to have HDMI out and charging in. I use Bluetooth for the mouse and keyboard.

    Now I have mobile gaming machine and computer to plug into any TV to use Stremio.

  • To clarify, we need the big [FAKE] tag because I don't know anyone who doesn't want this to be real! We want to show it to everyone who is on the fence and share it everywhere. We want to put it on billboards and hang out from building! Make it just so unavoidably obvious how gross and creepy this fucker is. We want to make it so nobody can forget or ignore it!

    We need a [FAKE] tag on this so that we can share the real shit far and wide. If we share fake stuff then we lose credibility. It's the boy who cried wolf.

  • My friend, when I was 22 I didn't make enough to pay taxes. You're getting downvoted because you're defensive, aggro, and misunderstanding the premise.

    Very few people on Lemmy believe you're actually stupid because you're young. Often times just uninformed and, per your example, impulsive. "Young=naive" tends to be a regressive position. I think you'll find Lemmy is typically a progressive website. Most of us left reddit over ideological/enshitification differences not because we were too radically right. .ml is among the exceptions.

    Anyway the premise isn't 22 year olds are too dumb to worry about taxes.

    Instead the premise is that you're too poor to worry about taxes. That's not to say you can't or shouldn't but you likely won't have anything worth taxing at that age. If you do have things worth taxing that young you either have inherited well, I'm sorry for your loss, or you are offspring of the 1%-0.0001% and were born with a silver spoon. Otherwise you're the lowest on the totem pole and it's been proven throughout the millennials growing up that you're not going to get ahead if the status quo remains as it is. In theory you should be looking for the most radical change because you'll see the greatest benefit over your lifetime.

    Anyway my friend, chill, touch grass and have a lovely day.

    And when it comes time to worry about taxes worth less about how much you're paying and instead what you're getting out of it. Paying taxes is pretty sweet when you get stuff in return like healthcare, schools, parks, places to get out and do things that don't cost money, transit investment, bridges that don't fall down. Taxes only such when you can't see the impact it has in your life...like this moment in history right now where the rich own the government and want more money from us to improve their lives.

  • Here you go mate, the video I promised. By the YouTuber CivDiv.

    https://youtu.be/nktMY2Na5ys

    It's an hour long and pretty damn good. It's probably the best video I've seen discussing an individuals reasons for fighting.

    I also found a number of other articles and videos and a study which I'll link to as well.

  • Ukraine has offered those volunteers citizenship. Maybe they won't be able to return to the US but many won't want to. There is fellowship to be found in war. You fight and die with those around you, you live with that fellowship. People, like me, who don't go through that will NEVER understand.

    When there is peace, as eventually there will be regardless of how long that takes, Ukraine or whatever country is there will have many veterans. They'll have to reckon with the horrors of war, what they did and what was done to them. But they will be able to do it together.

    Some will go off and fight in other wars.

    Most will try to rebuild their country and themselves with it. Whether they were born in Ukraine or chose to fight for her. Many will stay because all their friendships, built over years of war, are there. They will have the respect of the general populace (look at how the US treated WWI & WWII vets) and will be glorified for their sacrifices.

    But it's not about glory, those who fight for glory give up, it's a common theme throughout history. Ukraine isn't fighting because they want to. It's a fight for survival.

    At first I thought you were a troll for the sake of being contrarian. But it seems like you're coming from a place of genuine interest. So let me ask you a question: What would you fight for?

    Family, friends, territory, honor, a lover? What would cause you to drop everything and go off to war? If the answer is nothing you might want to evaluate that. Maybe you're a Ghandi devoted to nonviolence but I'd argue even Ghandi fought a war. He marched across his country and was tortured for his efforts.

    While you think I'm going to find a video someone made on YouTube, a kid who went to Ukraine to fight. Kid is a bit of a funny term, he must be approaching or in his 30s now if he's still alive. But he went off to Iraq with the US and was quickly disillusioned, then fought in Afghanistan as a volunteer for the Kurds. Now he's in Ukraine. He has an interesting tale and an interesting perspective and his own reason for fighting. I'd try to sum it up but I'll find the video and let him explain.

  • Always has been unless there are specific sanctions. The French have a whole foreign born legion. It's pretty famous.

    The usual offer is fight for us and become a citizen. The US even has allowances for foreign volunteers although it's pretty strict from my understanding and we tend to renege on the deal and conveniently ICE them before having to reward them with anything.

  • Our news literally moved online to blogs and YouTube like 6 or more years ago. You want in depth well researched journalism? You have outfits like Unicorn Riot, War on the Rocks, and Propublica or you have a YouTuber who has a special interest for a particular subject.

    If you want to know what is happening right now it's social media.

    If you want to feel emotions while trying to forget about your ever growing medical bills and just want a victim to blame, you go to cable entertainment news networks like The First (which, as a tangent, was last week, promoting the idea that Somalians were genetically incapable of living in a democracy), Newsmax, Fox, CNN or some other ragebait.

    It's fucked up. I don't know how to save us. So many people live with blinders on because, "Well, it doesn't affect me!" I'm just here having panic attacks watching them come for other minorities, waiting for them to come for me. I'll fight harder once my family obligations are over but right now it's just a giant shit burger.
