I see. I apologize. I guess I lost that context while scrolling. I agree people shouldn’t get complacent by just pointing to some authority that on their own won’t change things.

So you’re just… pointing out facts about international law in the thread about protesters trying to break a siege–what, for fun? I don’t understand what you’re trying to accomplish.
Obviously various authorities and people are in disagreement over what is right/legal for the people of Gaza. That’s not something we’re confused about. We just by and large side with the people of Gaza.
Anyway, we all process differently, so I’m not trying to imply that you have ill intent. But that’s why people are reacting negatively to your comment. Obviously ANY authority that sides with the people of Gaza is going to be one we side with, even if US/Canada/Israel/etc does not recognise them.
Don’t get me wrong - I am super sentimental, and can really get lost going down memory lane. I spend probably most of my mental life living in the past. But yeah, I guess the stuff I do preserve (99% text) just doesn’t take up much room at all.
Do fastfood next.
But no, I’m not getting into that fight with you, because it’s an argument without heart meant only to sap the will of people to oppose a very real and concerted genocide.
What do you propose to stop the genocide instead of morally defensible illegal acts?
I’ve been yelling at that AWS cloud ever since they started becoming the standard for enterprise. Glad to see sanity prevails somewhere anyway
I love alliteration. And puns, especially the multilingual kind 👹
Do you see how these two are not equivalent though? One is an aggressive campaign exterminate a people, that can be stopped if just slightly more political will is mustered.
Already, the tide is turning and you have even mainstream voices yapping at Israel to cease.
Genuine question, do people actually care about backing up media that much? I don’t get it. Everything I actually care about personally I can fit on a thumbdrive and a box of notebooks.
What is this, the card says moops?? Oh pardon me, by all means, carry on with the unprecedented genocide!
The UN is often on the right side of these things, so anyone who cares about human life, human rights, states rights, or international fraternity, would naturally align themselves to that consensus.
People of conscience disagree with the morality of this “blockade,” which is a nice weasel word by the way, when really what’s happening is people of Gaza are being exterminated while under total siege.
I mean if they’re utilities, we shouldn’t let a board decide what should rightfully be in the hands of the voting public. Really they should welcome a stable (OK maybe not so stable in the US atm, but generally…) owner as the government.
Doesn’t that make it even more selfless?
Joke so good it made me stop scrolling for the night.
… what do we call the death and pain caused by pursuit of profits?
The term I’ve heard for this is social murder:
… an unnatural death that is believed to occur due to social, political, or economic oppression, instead of direct violence.
Scared CEOs—finally, a guilt-free fetish.
I love how easy it is to just make cookies yourself too.
When it’s billing data I can see it, but if it’s a notification that someone sent you a message, you know there’s no reason they can’t include the message text. They just want your engagement (looking at you, LinkedIn).
Yeah if you don’t mind running a bunch of non FOSS plugins. What you want in 2025Q3 is Brix – it’s like Bgrams if the Slorp team made it. Full, batteries-included Bgrams/animal/CURT3 interop. Yeah.
The one guy who maintains it is a solipsist who doesn’t believe any of us exist, but you can’t argue with his results.
Those meme email chains were annoying at the time, but kinda endearing to look back on in retrospect.
I still cringe at the memory of the one time I forwarded one – it was something about Bill Gates, but I can’t remember the details. Anyway, my uncle replied back to me with something wholesome like
Nice to hear from you [mad_lentil], although I doubt this offer is genuine, you never know! Maybe we’ll all be rich this time next year. Say hi to your mom and dad for me, thanks.
It had never occurred to me that someone would lie on the internet rofffflllll. I was SO humiliated.
Thank you for this gift.
