Okay, then, is Nazi Germany a democracy? It has votes, after all. How about fascist Italy? Is that a democracy?

Nah, not riot. Riots are disorganized, and often hurt the local community and neighborhood rather than the actual perps. Look up your local chapter of the SRA and attend.

Yes please. We're trying, we're in the streets, but yes please.

What is, de facto, stopping them, if they decide the Constitution and the law are toilet paper to wipe their asses with?

I'd like to see the government that failed in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq try to take out a real insurgency on the home front. Every garbage bag an IED, every car a bomb.

Can't enact disproportionate violence if at least half the military mutinies. And that's no longer the impossibility it used to be.

Unironically yes. There's someone out there who is on the other side of the digital divide that would absolutely want any kind of access to what you currently take for granted.

Where did they say anything about "overpopulation"?

[–] wanderingmagus@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Was, specifically for the primary, and then left.

Yes, we are truly fucked, and if you check our political history, have practically always been truly fucked, remain truly fucked, and continue to be truly fucked - as evidenced by our current administration and the last... All of them.

We had to fight a civil war to convince a solid half that slavery had to stop. And then kept doing it anyways, and still do it today. The whole empire sits on the graves of the original people, the survivors of whom still live in reservations we put on the shittiest possible land, and have for centuries now with no change regardless who's in power.

This is the USA. This has always been the USA, once you peeled off the Hollywood varnish.

That's why you do several magnets, to be sure, and discard the ones that are bullshit, if you're worried about that. Haven't had any problems myself, other than theater cam for the newest new movies.

Iraq and Afghanistan.

 

I am able to create and access two multicommunities, but when I try to create one with !news@lemmy.world, it tells me that my instance is not responding.

Not sure what the issue is. As soon as !news@lemmy.world is removed from the multicommunity, it seems to work fine.

 

The secretary of Defense has ordered U.S. Cyber Command to stand down from all planning against Russia, including offensive digital actions, sources tell Recorded Future News.

 

In the future, your home will feel as safe from intruders as a state-of-the-art military base.

Cameras and sensors surveil the perimeter, scanning bystanders’ faces for potential threats. Drones from a “deterrence pod” scare off trespassers by projecting a searchlight over any suspicious movements. A virtual view of the home is rendered in 3D and updated in real time, just like a Tesla’s digital display. And private security agents monitor alerts from a central hub.

This is the vision of home security pitched by Sauron, a Silicon Valley start-up boasting a waiting list of tech CEOs and venture capitalists.

An empty two story hotel lobby in Colorado, with room windows and sliding doors facing inwards, dimly lit by lamp posts. Empty chairs and sofas leave a wide open central space.

 

Security company ADT disclosed in an SEC filing that hackers obtained “some limited customer information, including email addresses, phone numbers and postal addresses.” TechCrunch reports that ADT’s disclosure follows a seller on a cybercrime forum claiming last week that they had obtained more than 30,000 stolen ADT customer records.

A direct quote from the finance minister of Israel today: "Nobody will let us cause 2 million civilians to die of hunger, even though it might be justified and moral, until our hostages are returned."

 

Google researchers have come out with a new paper that warns that generative AI is ruining vast swaths of the internet with fake content — which is painfully ironic because Google has been hard at work pushing the same technology to its enormous user base.

Back in the 90s, Jeff Bezos went on record as hoping his employees would wake up on the wrong side of the bed—for the greater good, or for the customer at the very least.
