We don’t need musks shit over here, but I am really worried about next elections. Labour is unsurprisingly not doing much, but if we slide back into racist politics, that be much, much worse…

She needs to dye her hair for the 130% bonus

How on earth did this get approved by labour? This is crazy! They were pushing for publicly owned energy company as part of their manifesto and now this? Well this is going to go down even steeper hill

So I have been in Xinjiang, specifically Urumqi in 2010, about a year after there were local tensions and riots (I didn’t know about the riots until after I returned home). It was summer and I saw police in full riot gear, in APCs in groups of 10-15 at a time patroling the city. Not roadblocks everywhere, but multiple such patrols. I still felt safe (as a westerner, its super safe).

So there were clear, heavy local tensions. Now you are right about the news we here are obviously one sided. You have to take some critical thoughts about what is likely happening. However inter province travel requires you to present passport when buying a ticket. It’s not really a sign of a free and fair society.

I don’t keep up with internal Chinese politics beyond vaguely being interested in HK, but seeing what happened there you can make a fair assumption that in the mainland things would be harder for folks who don’t fall in line.

They are just a bit early with their Xmas presents!

Can you post where that is from please? I seem to stumble on desktops that cost 10x as much!

Yes I was looking as a client to replace the “smart” TV app that is increasingly becoming bloatware with something I can control. Just kinda need a “self hosted” client that can support 70mbps 10bit hdr streams or there about.

Ohhh I wonder if this can work as a 4k 10bit uhd Plex/jellyfin client?

What a fucking plonker

The perspective aligns with what’s being reported in various pro-Ukraine telegram channels, a lot of aid that’s been promised is simply not (hopefully soon) arriving.

Without looking at posters history, he is kinda right (about the gas guzzling, not fear mongering)

EU had years to start to diversify/start goverment run energy supply from a) polluting and b) “come on, look what laws they were implementing at home” Russia.

Could have put two and two together and realise that funding Putin might not be the best idea…

But no, let’s just keep buying things from obvious dictators…

Lammy, mate you were saying right things… And then you got into a position of power… What happened 😔

Maybe !leopardsatemyface@lemmy.world is better

I like Manjaro

• I like it
• Its user friendly if you don’t want to spend a month fiddling with it
• Feels comfy and relatively lightweight

• If you are living on the edge of latest and greatest versions, it can be a pain to wait for official repos to be updated. Though I only noticed this problem with Discord desktop app, however since I realised that it spies on every process that runs and you cannot turn that feature off. Uninstalled. Problem gone. Happy me.

An angle I read on this, is most likely the ones who are citizens (and allowed to vote) were affluent enough to emigrate legitimately and don’t want illegal poor people coming over. Latinos in Americas tend to be more conservative/ perhaps religious? I am told.

The biggest takeaway from the election so far for me (the votes are still being counted), it doesn’t look like trump got any new votes, he lost something like 1-2 mil from last time but the main issue is that Harris lost 15mil voters.

Ai magic money tree will keep printing money out of nothing and we save on headcount!

Even dead weight has unintended benefit in war if at least to find out enemy hard points. It’s a tactic that works well for their side unfortunately

Sorry internet has a habit of not always bringing meaning across well. But yes agree to what you said 👍

Probably because they are invading another country? Maybe they should be using their heads and thinking a little bit critically…

Don’t get me wrong, I also don’t have much like for US foreign policy of “bringing freedom” anyone with oil or their fanatical support of Israel.

But I do agree with your general sentiment that US also sucks donkeys arse. You can hate both sides but I know on which side of the border, I would rather be right now.

Thats unrealistic given that across the entire front in a day orcs loose 1500 - 1600 daily. So for “best Koreans” to loose so many you’d need some epic level of incompetence, even above orcs… Not saying it can’t happen but unless they do a parade within the range of himars… It’s unlikely that their losses would be that drastic
