You don’t have to take Russia’s word on it. USA and Russia inspected each other’s nuclear arsenal as part of the New START treaty until the beginning of covid.

This is less a reason to use Lemmy or MBin over the other specifically: One of the great features of the fediverse is that the content is not siloed off behind one interface. Usage and development can happen on both and any number of other interfaces and all of them will have access to the same content (barring federation issues, but that should become less of an issue as ActivityPub and various interfaces mature).

As for there being enough people to populate interface specific communities/magazines/whatever, you can’t take a snapshot of today and project that into the future statically. The fediverse population is still relatively low compared to commercial social networking sites, but there is enough of a core userbase for new people to accrete onto over the course of time. There is a potential future where the user base flips, or doesn’t but both Lemmy and MBin have large userbases, or another interface that doesn’t even exist yet takes off and becomes larger than both. But it doesn’t really matter because all that’s happening in those cases is people are being offered different ways of accessing the same content that better match their preference.

Bringing it back to the original point, that the content is not siloed means development on various interfaces can happen concurrently to make things not necessarily better than each other, but more suited to different tastes. You aren’t locked into whatever Reddit, or Twitter, or whatever decides the interface should look like.

I think she’s just had better luck with her skin. Her hair looks like it’s got it’s share of grey, at least around her shoulders.

You are putting the responsibility for those murders entirely on Hamas rather than the government currently perpetrating them, thus justifying that government’s actions. You could have just as easily made your opening comment, “Man, if only Israel cared about international law.” Please stop insulting my intelligence.

You are literally justifying their actions. Justifying the murder of well over 30 thousand.

If they ignored warnings from even relatively friendly states then I find it difficult to see the whole thing as something other than sacrificing some of their own people so they could wring some propaganda out of the event to shore up support for their war. When it first happened and they tried to lay the blame on Ukraine I figured it was more a case of, “Never let a serious crisis go to waste,” but it really seems like they knew it was coming and allowed it to happen.

You are advocating for the elimination of an entire ethnicity. Being an advocate for mass murder/genocide, do you consider your own life to be among those that is worth nothing and should be ended? You’d be a massive fucking hypocrite if you don’t.

This post is for all the doubters, haha.

Thanks for all your work, I’ve been using this app in this form and it’s previous for over a decade now.

This event has set alarm bells off in the Biden administration. He absolutely needs Michigan to win. It’s not an accident Biden is suddenly talking about ceasefires and dropping aid a couple days after this.

It’s pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I used to buy flagship phones but figured I didn’t really need all that just to browse the internet on the toilet. But I also wanted something that wasn’t so low powered that it lagged during regular operation like a lower cost LG I had purchased before. So far it’s fulfilling that purpose very well.

One plus nord n30. Bought it because it was relatively inexpensive and reviewed well. I’m happy with the purchase thus far.

Why does the US have any jurisdiction at all? This isn’t an American citizen. He didn’t do any of his supposed crimes in the USA. What right do they have?

Seventy-one people have so far died from exhaustion following the world’s largest single-day election in Indonesia last week, according to the government. Some 4,000 others fell sick between Feb 14 and Feb 18 due to fatigue after helping run the Feb 14 election, Hasyim Asy’ari, chairman of the nation’s poll body said in a press conference in Jakarta on Monday.

The latest election still claimed dozens of lives even after the government imposed an age cap for volunteers and mandated health checks after more than 500 polling station workers died following the 2019 vote.

What is going on there, Indonesia? That’s abnormal to say the least. These are not groupings of words you would expect to be seeing outside of like an election being held during a civil war or something.

Great. Now that we see an investigation into wrongdoing is all that’s required to pull support, we will be ceasing support of Israel as well? Right?

No. Maybe you should mind your business.

Not the dictionary definition of lobby, but the colloquial sense where it’s a synonym for bribery.

This is marketing. If they really wanted this they would lobby for it, the same way they get all their other interests looked after.

Not every virus is human compatible. I wonder what the actual chances one of these ancient viruses thaws out, encounters a human before the elements degrade it, and then manages to actually infect said human is.
