memes: easy as F to produce propaganda for the rich of any country to use on the poor of any other country

Does it still save in one of the most basic but still GIGANTIC file sizes?

Don't negotiate. Take your money out of big pharma. They're only doing this to "make money for their investors". If you know anyone who is invested, they are living off of blood money. Cancel big pharma.

You know who the real enemy in all of this is.....

Anyone is making a fraction of a cent off of squeezing the literal life out of American citizens by keeping their money invested in "big pharma". I am more than sure there are walking hypocrites out there that have had a loved one die while making money off their death.

If you care about this issue, tell everyone you know to de-invest in these companies.

Fuck them and their sociopathic ways.

Good. I'm surprised that all governments havn't banned this chinese spyware.

1.) its usually a single persons job to do "social media outreach", not most of the employees

2.) People shouldn't be using their personal devices to do government work, period.

3.) slippery slope? why would someone use queer dating apps on their GOVERNMENT device? this is a stupid argument

4.) This is about GOVERNMENT, not private business. You are conflating the two.

So, i was feeling pretty apocalyptic about this too - until it learned that "micro plastics" include any synthetic fibers like polyester. i mean, of course our clothing lint will get everywhere

 

TIL about the greek question mark

Tell me, can you tell the difference between these two characters?

naw man, fuck that the only thing water boarding (and torture in general) does is get people to say whatever they can to make it stop. I just realized.... with that as a tool, you could get any name you want out of anyone you're torturing :(

I didn't know this was an option!

THANK YOU!!!!

 

i just made this right now, after trembling at my first professional correspondence with an old highschool friend.

 

Did you know that Worf is over 110 years old at the start of TNG? Its true. He started his career as a defense attorney, defending Captain Kirk. He must have been demoted because he was a colonel back then!

 

That to me was an important feature of reddit :(

What I suspect is that they were getting flooded by bots...

Tucson nights (self.tucson)

I swear, the only sane time to be outside this time of year is after 8pm. I turn into a night owl. If I were to run this city, I would actively try to have businesses stay open late/all night. I know Now is when the snow birds leave and sales drop.... but we don't have to live like this! we don't have to keep oven mits in the car for the steering wheel when we first get in and drive away...

In the dead of summer, the best time to cook a steak outside is at 4am. Weather is perfect then. THAT should be the time we all go out and get things done.

I know this will never happen. Thank you for letting me get out my pet peeve.

So, Lemmy.world is just one instance of lemmy... it maybe the biggest one, but its just one right? And it agrees to federate with other lemmy instances (like lemmy.ml)... got it. But at the end of the day, each instance is running on someones computer right? Whats the traffic like between these two? If I ran an instance, and federated with this site, what would that cost me? How much traffic does this instance produce?

Are we suppose to divide into our own instances to reduce costs, and then link them together through lemmy.world? wouldn't that make it centralized? And then who is paying for THIS? How much is being a central hub between instances going to cost?

Sooner or later, we have to realize that these wonderful free things are usually a bubble that eventually pops when they have to start running ads.

Who is paying for this?
