I saw this comedy sketch this morning and it got me thinking it’s similar to how libs see China just trading with developing countries and denounce it as some kind of nefarious ‘dept trap diplomacy’
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Went clubbing yesterday with friends and had a blast. Maybe clubbing a day before an exam wasn’t smart, since I have a huge hangover but don’t regret it (yet).

Can someone actually make sense of this lunacy? Is it true that 99% of drones intercepted by israel? And this concludes Iranian response lmao
Them announcing the start and end of the attack is pretty sus, i’m pretty sure they just used this opportunity to test/exhaust their defensive munitions.
where are the sources tho?
he is a military analyst who is a former UN weapons inspector etc. Most of what this guy says can be trusted.
Hope its true, i absolutely despise their “invincible” posturing. Media is silent about this as usual.
Nah they’re bullshitting to save face
one guy is not having it
Happy Friday, comrades!
It’s wild that Elon is currently beefing up with the head of the judiciary system here in Brasil, lol. I hope twitter is blocked in the process, it would be a blessing for everyone’s mental health.
A few years ago, the bus service in my town made massive cuts to routes and frequency, making the buses pretty much completely useless to me, I really miss taking the bus places
But you know what I’m actually finding I miss the most about it? Having an excuse to actually get some reading done, I have an e-reader and being on the bus was the perfect time for me to use it, these days I rarely touch it because I have trouble focusing on that at home for various reasons, the bus trips were just long enough I could get some decent reading done and the small size and weight of my e-reader made it very convenient to do so, while using other devices was often inconvenient
I almost never read through books, and that bothers me, especially since it means I’m really limiting myself in my understanding of theory, I basically had to fight myself to even get through a good chunk of State and Revolution, I don’t think I ever actually finished reading it
Israel lost
Good
Skill issue ngl (amazing, hopefully this is a step in the right path)
users are harassing a trans person in the freedesktop organization for banning a well known bad actor from contributing, the guy who made hyprland, who encourages and participates in queerphobic harassment, especially against trans people
It’s especially infuriating because previously people had reasonable discussions on /r/linux about how ridiculously shitty this guy is, but now pretend as if the accusations are completely unfounded, or pretend it doesn’t matter (the usual defense is “it’s his personal Discord, how can you ban him for stuff he does there??”), along with the usual complaints about “ideology infiltrating Linux” (this is especially hilarious seeing how many of these people also worship Richard Stallman), as well as the typical redditor idea that rules lawyering is perfectly valid because “debate” and any use of common sense moderation is “power tripping”
But all he has to do is say “Red Hat Bad!!” (this isn’t even a Red Hat thing really) and write a few one-sided blog posts directly naming and shaming and everyone goes nuts
Words can’t describe how upset I am at this situation, people like this are the absolute lowest scum of the Linux and free software community
Do you think they even realize how many of the people who write the software they rely on are queer 🤔

No.
Ugh… reading this brought back some unpleasant memories from my own youth.
I am guessing that they were silent because it should have been pretty obvious that if anybody tried sneaking around, it was highly likely that a patroller or a guard would have spotted them and shot their ass off, and these grandparents gave this kid the silent treatment because it was less rude than yelling or insulting him. Still, I became more depressed reading this.
I’ve had a ticket for the Eurovision in Concert preparty since before the genocide after 7th of October started, but I’ve been questioning if I should go. Israel’s participant is not performing there, thats why I’m on the fence but I’m still leaning more towards not going. On the other hand, I already have the ticket, so it doesn’t matter if I go but there will also be a protest at the venue and I know that some of my acquainted comrades will be there and I don’t want them to think I support it.
it would probably be more satisfying to join the protest instead
and you’d be experiencing roughly the same level of noiseYeah, been thinking about it. That’s probably what I’m going to do. Plus it will be a nice story telling them I actually have a ticket but decided not to go.
Belgian socdems posterboy Conner Rousseau, who had stepped down after he got caught drunkenly calling for racist motivated violence against minorities, has been reintroduced on the electoral list for the Vooruit party 🫠🫠🫠🫠
still don’t get how belgium is a country. and socdems lol
Oh I remember you talking about him before he also did some sexual harassment
He did. He also tried to bully journalists into not publishing the things he said during his racist rant. Left wing icon.
Left wing of fascism or something like that right
