no borders in c/mop@quokk.au

It sounds like you're saying "of course you can have open borders if you have open borders". No kidding.

They've got agreements between these various countries. No reason we can't expand that list of countries.

What's yours? in c/microblogmemes@lemmy.world

I'm watching Die-Hard right now, so unfortunately I would be a cop. ACAB, and I'm married, so I would have to kms.

You ever been to Europe? Lots of borders you can cross without even realizing it. It's anti-human to allow goods and services to traverse borders but not people.

"Show your wives how you won challenge coins for murder!" "Tell her how the antifa made ya run back home to ma" "To the hot and swampy hell of Houston Texas."

Edit: I also want to say that I don't think it's bad that people take an interest in their ancestry. I can understand why it might be annoying for Irish people for example to have 4th generation Americans claiming it, but I think it can actually be a helpful part of unlearning "whiteness". I know it has been for me.

A newbie's guide to self-hosting with YunoHost. Part 4: backups in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 2 points 15 hours ago

I don't remember exactly why, but I couldn't get it to work any other way. First problem was incoming port 80 blocked by my ISP.

I have used (and loved) Yunohost for a long time, and I host it at home. A few years back, I did set up a vps to proxy the traffic (over wireguard) so that I could actually get a letsencrypt cert. Some apps really don't like self-signed certs.

The Damascus book fair draws crowds, with censorship eased in post-Assad Syria in c/world@lemmy.world

Smh can't you just be happy that there's Kurdish-language books at the Damascus book fair? /s

US Democrats: proud of deportations in c/usa@lemmy.ml

Dems are the "good cop" to the republican "bad cop". They both want to fuck you over in the exact same way. One just pretends to be nice to you.

Navalny Poisoned With 'Dart Frog' Toxin, Europeans Say in c/world@lemmy.world
[–] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

I think it's both. Certain users are constantly exhorting people to block leftist/communist servers. A lot of people are shocked to be confronted with actual communist views for the first time. Reddit is a very 'liberal' place compared to Lemmy. Overcoming a lifetime of conditioning can be difficult and upsetting.

I read that the first time as "Dog Fart" toxin.

My wife is from a SEA country. We went to Mexico and she was like "these are my people!". Except for all the beans. Beans are for dessert.

Mag pouch recs (lemmy.ml)
 

Howdy comrades. I'm building out a little kit, and I'm being thrifty about it. I need advice for 556 (and 9mm pistol I guess) mag pouches. Are they all the same? Is it possible to go too cheap (ie, Aliexpress)? I want to carry 4 556 mags on this kit, but they have to be split up, since my rig is a vest.

Has anyone made the hexbear emoji library into signal stickers yet? If so, where can I cop. If not, waaaaahhh!

Discuss this PCC build. (www.youtube.com)
 

I've been thinking of getting or making a PCC, and just watched this video. I love all the expertise and consideration that has gone into it, but damn if it doesn't seem like it ends up costing a couple grand! It's also longer than what I envision. Having never fired an MP5, I'll take Karl's word that the AR platform has better ergonomics, but I really like the MP5 form-factor. Is anyone here rocking a suppressed PCC?

Never seen this one before (lemmy.ml)
 

Coworker just picked up this crazy thing. It's a .22 imported from the Philippines.

Underwhelmed by protests (lemmy.ml)
 

I just went down to our local lib demonstration. All I could really feel was depressed. All those people waving signs but I wonder how many are willing to do anything more than that? Shit most of them were pretty old, tbh. I approached some people I clocked as comrades but I was very awkward and we didn't have a conversation.

I guess I don't really have a question here. Just feel like everybody has identified (some of) the problems, but have totally misidentified the solutions. Will these protests ever accomplish anything? Can we radicalize the protestors without them having to get beaten by cops? Or is that what it will take?

Torrents disappearing before completion (lemmy.ml)
 

I have something very strange happening. I have a seedbox and I did a manual search/download from Radarr, which initiates the download in qBittorrent as expected. The file begins downloading, and at some point before completion it just disappears completely. The qbit logs just say "torrent removed" without further explanation. I do have qbit set to remove torrents after they hit a defined ratio, but that definitely isn't happening here. Anyone seen this behavior before?

Where is Hexbear? (lemmy.ml)
 

What is going on with Hexbear federation? I can still only see Hexbear posts from before the domain kerfluffle. Is lemmy.ml no longer federated with Hexbear?

Art request (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi chapo-bears. Can someone please help me? I am in desperate need of a silhouette-style shooting target, in the shape of a certain roman saluter. My image editing skills are beyond rusty, but I think a lot of people would enjoy having such a thing.

What kind of carrier/rig are you running? (lemmy.ml)
 

I've been looking at plate carriers lately but I don't know much about them. I have some level 4 plates I bought a few years ago. Would like to go the milsurp route to save some coin if I can. Anyone want to chime in with opinions or examples of setups they're happy with?
