  • Removed from Reddit because?

    Jump

  • Maybe because it's the reddit thread?

  • The gutting of US weather forecasting abilities could prove very deadly

    Jump

  • Why do you need weather forecast, when a US president can redirect a hurricane on a map with a sharpie?

  • Mark my words: Windows will become a Linux distro that includes a good compatibility layer that people will take advantage of in other distros, and this will mark the year of the GNU + Linux desktop

    Jump

  • There will not be a desktop anymore before linux becomes the only mainstream OS.

    Witness: android.

  • God I hope they don't flood Lemmy

    Jump

  • A sure sign of their self delusion is that this sub admits "satire" posts, in what is supposed to be for discussing conservative topics.

    Because leftists are not as inconsiderate as them, they have to make up imaginary stories to expel their rancor.

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • Now I understand why I didn't care closing my Facebook account years ago: it was for cross posting this sort of information.

    Even if my Facebook feed is a sad desert, I hope I can be censored by the guy who rejects fact checkers

  • Google decides it won't comply with EU fact-checking law

    Jump

  • The eu doesn't it to block the search engine from the internet. It only needs to block the google cash-flow from inside EU to Ireland and then it's shareholders.

  • Google decides it won't comply with EU fact-checking law

    Jump

  • There is a french tech sector: Doctolib, BlaBlaCar, and a few other original ideas have opened new types of services and taken their hold over Europe. Yet, those services cannot be adapted to individualistic north America.

  • The Paper Passport Is Dying

    Jump

  • I don't have a mobile phone. How is that supposed to work? Will owning a specific object and attached subscription to a private entity be mandated by law?

  • Front Page of the Internet

    Jump

  • The french revolution was bloody. Today the whole world celebrates July 14th, the day a cheering crowd walked the head of the governor of Bastille on a pike.

    Go figure.

  • Louisiana's new "Ten Commandments" law actually contains eleven commandments

    Jump

  • No, numeracy is when you draw cards to see the future.

  • EU approval for chat control

    Jump

  • Which group in France is against? I consider making this issue a top priority for choosing who I vote for.

  • Is Boeing in big trouble? World's largest aerospace firm faces 10 more whistleblowers after sudden death of two

    UK surgeon who described Gaza ‘massacre’ denied entry to France

    Jump

  • At my modest scale, I was banned from reddit/worldnews for pointing out that the title of the stickied thread "Iran attacks Israel" was not suited anymore to the events in gaza, and that this thread's very low upvote count was a show that its content was not so consensual.

    There are lots of efforts by Likud extremists to reshape the narrative and suppress dissent.

    But I'm optimistic that their efforts won't work: the students protests are strong enough, alternative communities like r/internationalnews are developing, so that a more balanced perspective emerges, that doesn't downplay Israeli crimes against humanity.

    The Taliban are working to woo tourists to Afghanistan

    Jump

  • My aunt visited Afghanistan as a tourist, in a christian group of women, in the 1960's. I really wish I could do the same when I retire.

  • G7 countries agree to shut all their coal power plants within the next 10 years

    Jump

  • Rising costs of energy starting Feb 22 is the cause of the last huge dip. As a matter of fact, rising the price of energy and the ensuing economic slowdown is still the most effective way to to reduce GHG. Being frugal is the only way to reach 0 emissions in spite of whatever rosy paint one wants to put on green energy, housing renovation and other half-effective measures.

  • No more 12345: devices with weak passwords to be banned in UK

    Jump

  • Usually, an impact study is made before such type of laws are made:

    • if this law is enacted, how much will it cost to the manufacturers to update their factory settings?
    • how will this be impacted on the device cost in the UK compared to other markets?
    • how many users will get stuck when losing the unique ID of the device, what are the recovery procedures, how costly is it to end users?
    • how many users will be protected by the measure and what cost for society does it represent?
    • how many users will set a dumb password anyhow and what is the cost for society?

    I’d be curious to see the impact study, as many of those are actually botched.

  • Today I learned an oil company prevented the rescue of contracted divers working on their pipe to save money.

    Jump

  • Reddit has become the face of enshittification

    Jump

  • My recent permaban from r/worldnews for stating the obvious (is "Iran attacks Israel" still the right title for a stickied thread on the events in Gaza?) has had the positive effect of making me renew with Lemmy.

    r/worldnews is a cesspool of hasbara fanboys, but their unilateral view on the conflict starts to draw away people from their toxic propaganda.

  • Trump Lawyer Argues He Could Legally Order Assassination Of Political Rival

    Jump

  • Indeed, and the legality has been challenged by the ACLU. Although they could not pursue to issue a condemnation.

    The present case would be an excellent opportunity to resolve the question of whether or not a President is entitled to kill a US citizen and setup better checks and balances (because, in the case of Obama, there were definitely some, but those were disputable).
