Fair enough. It’s still more news than the endless reporting major news websites do (I’m looking at you bbc) about his fucking tweets.
But I can see your point that it’s not very newsworthy on Lemmy (nor is this new btw, he has done similar shit before)
Just an idea, but maybe nothing actually happened? So nobody is sharing their videos, or they’re just not going viral because there is nothing to see… The truth is always more mundane than you want it to be…
What’s more likely? A shadow government wiping thousands of videos without thousands of people being up in arms about it. If Gmail goes down for 15m, the whole world goes crazy. We’re taking about the phones of an entire district being instantly cleaned, livestreams shut down, cloud backups (including people backing up to homeservers) being wiped and all. Maybe even dumb cameras and instax pictures being destroyed.
Or nothing but a random hoax of someone having fun?
If you still find the shadow government more likely, there is no discussion to be had tbh…
The government is so powerful that they’ve even managed to downvote your comment exposing their evil ways! Incredible.
At the same time, they’re too incompetent to keep sensitive war information out of the press, feed or teach their children and poor or even just agree on what to call a fucking bay. But scrubbing thousands of phones instantly, in these live streaming days, no biggie.
“Twitter should be the global town square”
“free speech absolutist”
“make humor great again”
“leftists are snowflakes”
Sure, he doesn’t force anyone to use Twitter. It’s still unfortunately the de facto communication platform for a lot of government agencies. It’s still an important tool for the world. Let’s hope some large governments (EU? Please?) grow balls and leave Twitter alltogether…
This is absolutely newsworthy and worth being upset about.
That one guy’s dead wife obviously.
Nowhere? Sit with my own sadness. Go to the gym and work my frustration out on weights. Play games and forget? Unfortunately none of them healthy coping mechanisms, but talking to close ones leads to more issues because I’m very bad at putting my feelings into words without causing distress to others apparently. So inwards it goes.
Not as if the universe cares, so why should I?..
*days or even hours, until you run out of gas.
Except for musquitos. They’re fair game.
Lord of the rings is a great book series.
I’m very fond of scifi, the old man war series is a very fun and smooth series to read. I like to recommend it to ppl that want to read a longer, but easy to digest series.
If you like scifi in general, you can’t go wrong by picking any random nebula award winner. It’s what I’ve done these past few years. Can’t say I’ve regretted it this far.
You’ll have plenty time to read amazing books now that you don’t have to waste your time in church, reading the Bible and thinking about skydaddy. Welcome to freedom!
Except for the assassination of Abe, which was a resounding success by any measure. The perp got everything he wanted and more.
I agree with the first one. Everyone should be able to love any adult in any way shape or form they want with consent of all involved parties.
But the the relatives one runs into issues with abuse and clear voluntary consent. Grooming is an actual thing, and a much bigger potential risk if the groomer is raising you from your infancy. I would add the caveat if you really want to make it acceptable, it should only be allowed between people of the same generation, and only when they’re well into adulthood.
How would you deal with violent crimes (murder, rape, abuse, things that are considered morally reprehensible by most people, regardless of religion and affiliation) without a penal system? Mob punishment?
Prayers and likes is assistance right?
Can you give me an example of an actual modern and good FOSS game?
Dutch can do the same. You can just keep slapping words together. It never ends.
Not to argue about the privacy issue, but aren’t there better options than a towel? Get a phone without camera? Get one of those phones with physical switches for sensors? Get graphene OS and don’t install anything but signal? I feel the towel wrapping is not the best solution for your privacy issue.
To be honest, selling copied games also paid for my games, my CD writer and then some when I was 14-15. Took ages to copy a single CD, and it would regularly fail, but friends happily paid me 10 euro for a working copy of the latest fifa.
Any references for that? First I hear of it.
Not that I don’t believe you, but I’d like to read up about it. I basically never reboot my phone, never had issues.
I enjoy life. But I am very aware that if I die, it all just stops.
If not for the pain I’d cause my loved ones, I wouldn’t mind dropping dead tomorrow. As long as it’s instant and painless. Like turning off a pc. When it’s off, it’s over. Easypeasy. No more stress, hunger, love, joy, nothing. Doesn’t sound horrible to me.
Suicide though? No way. There’s too much good to actively keep living for.
