For a community that loves Linux so much, Lemmy seems really obsessed with everything Microsoft does

The Chinese ones are cheap because they're being subsidised by the Chinese govt to be sold that cheaply overseas as a deliberate economic attack tho

Ok firstly, suspending someone for weed is insane because that's not a performance enhancing drug, if anything it's performance degrading.

Secondly ask yourself why are they catching someone for weed but don't catch all the obvious steroid use that literally every professional athlete does? It's because they've intentionally made it possible to cheat their system and get away with steroid use, and the trainers and officials are the ones helping the athletes.

Watch the doco Icarus, the first half before it goes off the rails is all about how doping is an open secret and all athletes in all countries do it and their trainers help them

Ability to use the internet well means you have a lot of information at your disposal and can educate yourself out of believing in fairy tales

Hah I had the opposite reaction, I'll surprised how many people there are in this comment section arguing that God is real. I didn't know religious people knew how to use the internet tbh

Germany

Oh it's absolutely done at a government level by the US as well, they're just a bit more subtle about it than Russia and China

So you mean, the Olympics?

Isn't this just glassdoor

Because it perfectly embodies one thing the Lemmy hivemind hates the most about how large, for-profit corporations tend to behave

The Hamas Can't you see both sides are using identical arguments? Israel has also repeatedly said that their intention is to destroy Hamas, not the Palestinian people, but their actions show that that is utter bullshit of course (they even used suitcases full of cash to keep Hamas in power).

Likewise Hamas claim to only be against the Zionists in order to gain public support but their charter literally says "from the Jordan river to the sea, Palestine will be free of Jews", and there are numerous reports of them raping and murdering innocent Israelis.

Long story short, the current government of Israel and Hamas are both terrible, and supporting either of them is supporting a group whose goal is genocide. The US government is obviously extra complicit in genocide due to continuing to sell Israel weapons, but if you didn't already know that US foreign policy is pure evil then you haven't been paying attention

Just because one side of a conflict is evil doesn't automatically make the other side good. Evil can fight evil, and when it does we should condemn both sides. Hamas have literally said that their goal is to genocide the Israelis, if you think that's ok then that's terribly hypocritical of you. The only reason Israel is succeeding in that goal and Hamas are not is because USA is tipping the scales with their arms shipments etc

Perfectly described!

They probably don't even have personal projects

"doesn't affect your body" is false - it just has different effects

While that is true, it's also true that if the algo has no data on you it just shows you what most other people want to see, which is usually boobs

I figured out the twist within like the first 5 minutes of my first watch (nobody spoiled it for me, but I knew that there would be a twist and was looking for one) and it made the movie pretty boring imo

Mate get yourself a second one, you'll never go back

Would be even funnier if the guy was a literal piece of trash

Agree to disagree I guess! I used an iPhone X as my daily driver for 3 years and was overjoyed to get the Android UI back when I switched back. The iPhone visuals are more consistent but the UX is significantly worse imo. There are a few things that I reckon are mainly just Apple being stubborn and refusing to admit they were wrong - e.g. the lack of a back button
