Alternate caption: “Zionists smuggling in settlers before the British mandate ended to have enough votes to create a State of Israel as a safe haven for Holocaust refugees, then getting populated mostly by Jews fleeing Arab countries out of fear of retaliation for having created the State of Israel a day early and having pushed most Palestinians out by force”

That’s racist.

Their system has “triggered successfully”, great news everyone! 😃👍

With my face pasted against the window. After a while, all those tiny clouds look like a field of sheep 💤

Ironically, the average total taxation (after you add local, regional, national, etc. taxes) is either lower or at a similar approx. 35% of income.

Americans just get stiffed by where that money goes afterwards.

I want GDPR export.

Next, GDPR import of the same data (aka, account migration)

Transhumanist, non-practicing Antitheist

Raised Roman Catholic, broke with that after a classmate died out of the blue of an aneurysm (how could God let shit like that happen?), after looking through Buddhism and some Occultist stuff, realized that the main function of “God” is to be used as a prop to scam people. I’ve considered the Satanist Left Hand path, but I don’t care about rituals. I’d rather follow the scientific method as applied to everything, and use it to extend and expand human nature. While theists still kind of nauseate me with a dash of pity, like seeing a dead kitten in the gutter, I’m up for positive interactions with anyone capable of maintaining one.

“hope you perish in a pool of solitary misery”

“perhaps cruel an unnecessary”

“Perhaps”, you think?

“do one thing well”

Arguably, Systemd does exactly that: orchestrate the parallel starting of services, and do it well.

The problem with init.d and sys.v is they were not designed for multi-core systems where multiple services can start at once, and had no concept of which service depended on which, other than a lineal “this before that”. Over the years, they got extended with very dirty hacks and tons of support functions that were not consistent between distributions, and still barely functional.

Systemd cleaned all of that up, added parallel starting taking into account service dependencies, which meant adding an enhanced journaling system to pull status responses from multiple services at once, same for pulling device updates, and security and isolation configs.

It’s really the minimum that can be done (well) for a parallel start system.

People who care about the difference between some things, tend to use different terms for them. Insisting on disregarding what they consider important, tends to make them feel insulted, which in this online setting, currently translates to getting blocked, reported, banned, or defederated.

Hm, I’m using Jerboa and just realized there seems not to be a way to choose any language, anywhere. Does this comment appear as English, or undefined?

I also can speak several languages, and read a few some more, wonder how would that need to be set. There was also supposed to be an option to automatically translate stuff, I think?

That could still come to Lemmy, if posts start being seen by hundreds of thousands of people, particularly if they come from instances which don’t share the same netiquette as the one the post is made on. Of course there’s defederation to fight that, but I feel like it can only go so far.

You can change the sorting, I actually have this post sorted by “top” right now.

You did it again.

• Sex is the physical plumbing
• Gender is the self-perception
• Sexual orientation is the partner preference

Just because someone got born with X plumbing and everyone just assumed they would feel like X gender since birth, does not mean they will. That’s what “gender assigned at birth” means: an uninformed assumption.

I completely agree with you. Now defend your point, which I’ve definitely attacked by replying. 🤺

Votes have a bandwagon effect, both up and down votes. Sometimes it just felt like arguing with an army of mute downvoting zombies; no reply, just downvotes. I completely understand some communities on Lemmy disabling downvotes, even if that means there is no mora a “controversial” vote.

My only fear is that as Lemmy gets bigger, the same botting, brigading and mindless bandwagoning, will also come here.

Americans are the largest English speaking group, as long as we’re in the English part of Lemmy, Americans will still be the largest group.

You can also request it again every 30 days… just saying.
