Show me one place where indigenous people aren't treated like crap by the government

I just did that on my own laptop, trying to figure out why it was running like crap. Turns out I set it to quiet mode instead of cool, so it underclocked instead of running the fan

That's not enough to register anywhere in the US. This is about disenfranchising voters.

And "just trust me bro" isn't enough to register in my experience anyway. When I first registered, I didn't have any ID, so I submitted an affidavit, which is "just trust me bro", but with the force of law and consequences for fraudulent submission. But that's a very rare case, most people are registered with some form of ID.

Unlikely. If it was cheaper to use natural dyes, they'd probably already be doing it.

It will know as much data as it would for any other wireless client. MAC address mostly.

I bought a new one recently. Apparently they're doing a subscription thing now, so look closely at which model you're buying. But other than that, it works just the same as my old one.

You should be able to insert a photo from within the Facebook app or site when in that thread.

I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to do here. Yes, if you use a phone as a hotspot, everything going through will be associated with that hotspot phone's IMEI.

Yup, it works great. I actually did it myself when migrating from a centos to debian host. Worked first try, no issues (except one thing that was already broken but I didn't know because I hadn't accessed it recently). Containers are great for this.

Harvard Medical School canceled a planned Jan. 21 lecture on wartime healthcare and a subsequent panel with patients from Gaza receiving care in Boston in response to objections that students would hear from Gazans impacted by the war and not also Israelis.

Course instructors and students were notified Tuesday morning that the events — scheduled for that evening — would not be held.


Students had organized the moderated discussion with patients and their families as a follow-up to Levy’s lecture, which was not focused specifically on Gaza.


Jones said that Arabic-speaking Medical School students who had served as interpreters for patients from Gaza in Boston asked course staff to arrange the session with Levy and patients’ families.

“Students often find that the presence of a patient who is interviewed and discusses their experiences is often far more engaging, powerful, and moving than hearing a professor carry on about the pathophysiology of disease,” Jones said.

The optional session was part of the course’s original spring semester curriculum and was approved by HMS administrators, according to Jones.

 

As if we didn't already know. I didn't know being against businesses using slave labor counted as bigotry, though.

Unanimously.

If you tap that link in Boost it'll probably crash, so don't do it unless you're okay with that.

I'm guessing the problem is that the post URL is a magnet link.

Edit: oh yeah, to work around, you'll have to open it in a browser and hide it.

 

I got banned earlier today with the message "rule 1", no other information about why, or which comment broke the rule. As far as I can tell it was this one, which just says "We want the bot gone. That’s it. It’s really that simple."

So I checked the modlog for other bans, and @aniki@lemmings.world was banned today as well, also just for "rule 1", probably either for the comment saying "a stupid bot writing useless bullshit" or "This is what you call "Not listening to criticism."", neither of which are an attack on any person.

(Also earlier today @MindTraveller@lemmy.ca was banned with the message "fuck off", which I'm pretty sure is not a reason to ban someone from a major community, but doesn't appear to be related to the MBFC bot.)

One more today, @stormesp@lemm.ee was banned, again just "rule 1", last comment being this one, again not an attack on any person.

So what's the deal here? I couldn't find any rules for mods on lemmy.world with a brief poke around, but are we letting mods run major communities like little fiefdoms, banning people for criticism?
