I wish to buy this person a beer. Also send me tech docs and not a YouTube tutorial where I have to jump ahead of all the bullshit while trying not to miss the useful details.

This is the third comment making me reconsider.

Well-argued. I'll give this some thought.

whether you as an instance owner have the right to police “your” users in this way.

I don't run SDF. I'm just an enduser. Thanks for taking the time to write a thoughtful reply.

I'm not pro-Hamas but I dislike Israel more because Hamas are fighting their captors. I can understand that. I believe if Palestine was granted statehood and equal rights, Hamas would cease operating. If it continued to operate, I would be anti-Hamas as much as I am anti-Israel. The power imbalance makes treating them with equal disdain irrational.

I'm not deliberately misinterpreting anything. Please explain what I was to understand differently because these three points are wretched:

Calling for a destruction, annihilation, an end of all Zionism or the like.

Equating Israeli actions and (historical) Nazism.

The slogan “from the river…”

We should end zionism. Israel is treating Palestinians exactly as the nazis treated Jews and Romani peoples. The slogan is hopeful, not threatening.

Holy crap. She tried to hire a hitman and people are sending money for her defense? These must be the same people that sent money to the racist lady who said the n-word to a child.

The man was standing for human decency. His former employer can get fucked.

I didn’t realize a panel of doctors concluded that she’s not at fault. Wow. So, is the general thinking that the courts got it wrong?

New Lemmy Drama: "Feddit.org officially announces they will ban criticism of Israel and pro-Palestinian posts and comments."

I find this morally reprehensible. I have always spoken against defederazation when others have mentioned it. This is too much. Apologies if this upsets anyone.

Palestinians are human beings and have a right to life.

Edit: I have been persuaded by some thoughtful replies. I will block them from my view. I no longer support making the decision for others. Thanks all.

 

It certainly wasn’t because the company is owned by a far-right South African billionaire at the same moment that the Trump admin is entertaining a plan to grant refugee status to white Afrikaners. /s

My partner is a real refugee. She was jailed for advocating democracy in her home country. She would have received a lengthy prison sentence after trial had she not escaped. This crap is bullshit. Btw, did you hear about the white-genocide happening in the USA? Sorry, I must have used Grok to write this. Go Elon! Cybertrucks are cool! Twitter isn’t a racist hellscape!

The stuff at the end was sarcasm, you dolt. Shut up.

 

We’re gonna be so fucked. Get ready for shittier experiences with internet providers and cell companies.

Republicans are drunk with power. What a stupid fucking idea. There’s no chance of banning porn. Then they wouldn’t be able to jerk to Trans women and feel shame after.

Trans women are hot, in case that reads as though the shame is correct. It’s not.

She’s typically very regal. Gotta love that derpy moment.

 

The proposal comes after Republicans killed a federal FCC program that provided a $30 discount off the broadband bills of low-income Americans. The Republicans in question claimed they killed the popular program to save money, but a follow up study showed that the program more than paid for itself (by a factor of four) because it helped expand access to remote healthcare, employment, and education.

My state fighting a good fight. We’re flawed, but we sometimes get it right.

 

Gates said Musk had canceled grants to a hospital in Gaza Province, Mozambique, that prevents women transmitting HIV to their babies, in the mistaken belief that the US was supplying condoms to Hamas in Gaza in the Middle East. “I’d love for him to go in and meet the children that have now been infected with HIV because he cut that money,” he said.

I don’t like Gates as a person. He was out in front arguing that the Covid vax needed protection as a commercial product instead of open-sourcing it. But he’s a thousand times better than the fuckwad Musk. I have no notes for him about his comments in this article.

 

I never knew this was an option. I was viewing a video from Finder in QuickLook. While jumping back and forth between apps, I accidentally hit Cmd-L in Finder when I intended to be in Safari (to copy a URL). The video rotated left. Cmd-R, predictably at this point, rotated back to the right. I assume images would work as well, but the video hasn't finished playing so I haven't confirmed.

I've been a Mac power user for decades and this was a satisfying discovery.

While the ruling largely sustained Musk’s core complaint, OpenAI did get some claims dropped, including a claim that Musk was misled by public OpenAI statements that the court found he helped write.

That didn't stop him from trying to pursue as if he hadn't help author them. Dirty, scheming asshole piece of shit. He could use his wealth to build outreach centers to help the unhoused or other acts of philanthropy. He does nothing beneficial to humanity with it. Just buys himself expensive stupid toys.

 

Oh noez! Anyway…
