I would say the benefit of OpenSUSE is that everything is preconfigured to work right out of the box, including btrfs snapshotting with snapper. Once you boot it’s time to download apps, and go. Very windows like for those who just want the system to work. Updates are one click.

Oh my god, I remember the Maher bit, you could tell Bill was getting pissed off about this guy coming on and spewing conspiracy theories. Actively rooting against Brand ever since! I believe all these allegations are probably true, as Brand seems to have a very tenuous relationship with reality.

Choosing death by starvation is not a choice. Work or die, slave.

Isn’t there a genocide somewhere you should be out denying?

I really don’t understand lemm.ee policy here. Hexbear is clearly a SPAM instance, but because they spam under the guise of leftist principles we’re just gonna let it slide. If explodingheads was this active and this toxic they would be de-federated 100%. Hexbear users brigade and spam every thread including this one. Being actively hostile, launching bad faith arguments. Don’t engage with these turds, just block and move on. We NEED instance blocking or lemmy is fucking toast.

Bigot

No, not really. You guys have just made it insanely easy to identify yourselves. I always double check to make sure it’s hexbear.net, don’t worry.

While I think this should pass, don’t hold your breath. Mayor Frey will probably veto it. He’s a very moderate, business friendly Democrat and our governor also vetoed a similar bill from the state legislature earlier this year. Right or wrong, they are concerned that any disruption of Uber/Lyft services would be extremely detrimental to people who depend on them. Public transportation in MN is really bad and this is one of the major ways people get around.

At 21 hours old, this lemm.ee meta post has 1123 comments and 3/4ths of the comments are from hexbear users. They brigade every thread with their non sense and it is impacting lemmy in a very negative way. We wouldn’t be having this discussion if it wasn’t. I don’t really like defederation if it was a tool to silence ideology but what hexbear users do is not really debate ideology and more aggressive in your face bad faith argument trolling. This is a spam instance that should be treated as such. Block it.

This man is staying in Pyongyang and will be treated quite well.

Wow I really have no response to this, I am just straight flabbergasted that anybody is this stupid.

Authoritarianism (or vertical/hierarchical power structure) is THE defining characteristic of the right. “Auth-left” is Doublethink; an oxymoron meant to distract from the fact that wealth and power are one and the same.

This is so incredibly naive. Stalin? Mao? Evil authoritarianism comes in all flavors left and right. If you truly believe leftists aren’t capable of evil you need to study more history.

Fucking Lemmy.world is hot garbage. They’re down every day and are constantly defederating with any instance that doesn’t fit their narrow, sanitized world views. It’s also one of the most recommended Lemmy’s with more new users going there than anywhere else. I think it incredibly damaging in the long run to have 50% of active users on this platform to be centralized on one domain. Especially if this domain makes as many boneheaded decisions as lemmy.world

While maybe not fascists politically, the Chinese government is no better than fascists see: Chinese governments deliberate genocide of Uyghur muslims

The USA debt to China is, I think, part of foreign policy. It keeps China at the table and they’ll never be able to break from globalism/the west cleanly because of it. If they ever invaded Taiwan, which I don’t think is likely, the USA would wipe all foreign debt to China as part of the sanctions package. You have to play nice (nice enough) if you want your money back.

Tankies are really one to talk about Propaganda. Go away!

I don’t want to be on an instance that defederates instances based on any ideology. Originally I signed up for beehaw.org but saw they were defederating with instances who “didn’t share their inclusive views” That’s fine as it is their instance I guess, but I deleted my account. If your ideology of choice needs censorship to back it up, maybe it’s not that great. I want my all to be EVERYTHING porn nazis communists I don’t give a shit. ALL MEANS ALL
