Fuck Yankies

I see a nationalist lapdog right now. Time for some nuclear testing in this removed.

What, you think Snowden went to Russia because he wanted to? EHR!! Wrong again, genius. He went to Russia because that’s about the only place extradition treaties with the US does not extend, and Putin went for it to get brownie points with the common folk of the world - because he wants people to worship him like the new Alexander the great.

Read up about the history of the NSA, the CIA and the FBI. Learn how the Kremlin is cute in comparison and learn how the US elite has a history of subverting and persecuting whistleblowers to solidify the protection of institutionalist powers. It’s what makes Putin so jelly, because he wishes he had that kind of power and influence across the world.

I don’t blame Snowden for not wanting to become another statistic. I blame idiots like you though for pretending you know wtf you’re talking about, when really you’re just sniffing at the crotch of soft US imperialism, because it doesn’t occur to you that all forms of imperialism - be it US, Russian, Chinese, European, etc - whether it soft or hard are all equally narcissistic, paranoid, stupid and destructive, even if it makes your microdot hard as you wave your little flag like the good boy you are.

So go off, serf, but you’ll get no headpats here. Suckle at the feet of your masters - you treacherous little imp. I bet you/you’d vote/voted for Trump because he’s your Alexander the great.

A martyrdom so that cretin J.D. Vance gets to take over after him?

He’s still a hero, you petulant nationalist goon. Go gargle Georgie Soros balls, you absolute footstool.

Meta sucks, but here they are very right hypocritical immoral*

Don’t worry fam I got you

I think giving it up is sort of a cop out. It’s like saying because all new movies suck, that you should stop watching films.

The good thing about Mastodon I feel is that people are more sincere than what you’ll find here, or even on Threads.

I also think Beehaw has a good idea by being strict. If you dislike the brainrot, remove the brainrot. Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.

…he said on social media…

Okay, so it’s a link aggregate, but still.

Why everyone’s so happy about BlueSky and Threads though is what pisses me off, and it’s that’s they are in the safe arms of a corporate daddy.

Submissive little shites.

TL;Dr. From Wikipedia

IPFS allows users to host and receive content in a manner similar to BitTorrent. As opposed to a centrally located server, IPFS is built around a decentralized system of user-operators who hold a portion of the overall data. Any user in the network can serve a file by its content address, and other peers in the network can find and request that content from any node who has it using a distributed hash table (DHT).

So it’s BitTorrent in the web browser… thanks. How is that to be competitive with CloudFlare and Quic again? It has the same network issues that the blockchain has, in that it will be cumbersome and slow - for anyone else that doesn’t have millions to throw into infrastructure. Welcome to the same problem again, but in a different way.

The sustainability of it is questionable. If I’m not mistaken, IPFS is based on Ethereum, which has gone over to proof of stake rather than proof of work, but it’s still a pretty cumbersome system.

We’re talking about something that needs to compete with Quic and CloudFlare. I’m not sure that Ethereum or even crypto itself is efficient enough as a content delivery method, that IPFS - though a nice idea - is unrealistic.

But that’s just speculation from someone who has zero knowledge behind IPFS as a technology and protocol, so take it with a grain of salt.

EDIT: honestly, why qualify with “I’m not sure” when besserwissers and their alts roam the fediverse instead of going to therapy. Smh. Give the people a Tl;Dr at least. I’m not here for long form content.

No.

Please read my original post again. Did I say “was and always has been” or did I say “is”?

It is gambling, because dark pools. That is the house. You’re not trading the actual stock. The financial institutions do that. You buy stock from them, and they in turn give you a fake number and invest it in all secrecy.

In essence, you’ll get your money, but they will handle the profits. So it is a rigged slot machine.

And before you go “it’s to avoid liability”, fucking duh - it doesn’t make it right though.

Screw the privacy policy, bruh, read that TOS:

When you post Contributions, you grant us a license (including use of your name, trademarks, and logos): By posting any Contributions, you grant us an unrestricted, unlimited, irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, fully-paid, worldwide right, and license to: use, copy, reproduce, distribute, sell, resell, publish, broadcast, retitle, store, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, excerpt (in whole or in part), and exploit your Contributions (including, without limitation, your image, name, and voice) for any purpose, commercial, advertising, or otherwise, to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, your Contributions, and to sublicense the licenses granted in this section. Our use and distribution may occur in any media formats and through any media channels.

In other words, you put any content up there, they can resell it to some movie studio AND make an AI copy of you with no consequences… at least according to their ToS.

EU law however… well, time will tell how fast and violently EU lawyers will inject themselves into the urethra of the service provider.

Bruh, wtf you think stock trading is? Buying into funds is just hiring professional gamblers to work for you, "insider trading* is cheating and dark pools is just the high rollers table.

Ngl, Hitler 2.0 was not in my 2024 bingo card…

I’m missing some way to migrate all my notes from Google Keep. Is there a plan in the future for this feature?

Cus they can’t access SWIFT, ofc they can’t buy.

Besides, China is working on their own GPU/NPU/ASIC production line.

Russia (vassal state) x China (dommy mommy state).

Yeah, I’m not saying it’s easy to do ^^ it is a job and a half just to design it, for sure. I’m not facetious enough to pretend anything else.

Don’t forget the increase in psychiatric therapy for grieving mothers, cus they sure as hell won’t.

Immediately scrolls down to the comment section. I’ve been spoiled by content just automatically loading, but I saw the “Load Lemmy” button. Tres chic.

It would be cool if there was a raised question mark button to the right for the load button, that on mouse over or click shows a tooltip explaining shortly what Lemmy is, as well as directly telling the user what community and instance the comments hail from - even before loading the content.

A standard tooltip for that purpose would be kind of nice.

Best covert promo ever.
