damn climate change be crazy when they can grow coffee in Britain now…

which camera app do you use?

maybe we should tho

reposting my comment from the other such post:

even when reporting on literal child murder they had to finish the article with an IOF quote saying how they’re just “killing terrorists” - which while I get the backhanded approach to showing how out of touch that is - I can guarantee there’s people out there that will think “well killing kids is obviously bad but the soldiers are just protecting civilians from terrorists so it’s an unfortunate sacrifice - if they didn’t want Palestinian kids to get killed Hamas shouldn’t have started the war”

especially when they say:

That date marked the start of the Gaza war, triggered by a Hamas attack on southern Israel which killed about 1,200 Israelis (of which about 800 were civilians and 38 were children).

but doesnt even consider mentioning that just in 2022 alone Israel had killed practically as many children as Hamas did on Oct 7th - or the fact that 2,171 Palestinian children had been killed since 2000 by Israeli forces and settlers…

ah I dont know them that well then - I’ve just seen them hate tankies and have a decent stance on women’s issues - I’ll keep my eyes peeled - thanks!

You know what kills me about all of this? It’s that, as a transfeminine bun, the typical trans-misogynistic shit being thrown my way is that I’m just a guy disguising myself as a woman to invade “real women” spaces, to which of course, the answer always is: Guys don’t need to put in this much effort to invade women spaces, they just walk in like they own the place and it’s enough.

preach girl preach 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

And god forbid if you’re expressing your frustration in a way that might be a bit too generalizing or angry, because of course “#NotAllMen”, a guy will say proving exactly that yes, it is all men. It’s not hating an entire group, it’s not being misandrist, it’s just drowning in misogyny and being rightfully pissed off about it, but we can’t even have that.

it’s so frustrating - someone will post some obviously misogynistic shit and you’ll take the time to explain why it’s misogynistic and then a bunch of fragile guys will instantly start downvoting (not @rimu@piefed.social tho, he’s single handedly the one #NotAllMen <3) and explaining how they’re just misunderstood and are actually one of the good ones - my guys just take the L

how come most can understand when we say ACAB replying with #NotAllCops isn’t defensible - yet those same people will unironically defend #NotAllMen as if systemic critique is specifically about them - to quote another ally: “either get with it, or get out of the fucking way”

on the broader point of the “angry woman” trope - the world we live in makes it impossible to escape this - so as The Feminist Killjoy Handbook by Sara Ahmed teaches us (a highly recommended read btw - again brought up to me by another ally (and to the men lurkers in here - this is how you help women not by defending yourself as “one of the good ones”) - actions speak much louder than words)

anyways as I was saying: Sara teaches us that instead of running away from the trope of the angry “killjoy” we should embrace her - as she comes from a long line of feminists that have fought so hard to get us to where we are today and men have attemped to dismiss all of them by using that same trope - so use that righteous anger to keep up the fight and to always remember that you’re not alone, never have and never will be 🫶🏼

I know its a low ball but verifiably at least 37k people…

could it not be both? obv profits drive the desire to sell more shrimp but at the same time if you know slaves are processing your “good food” would you not feel some moral responsibility to not consume it or at least attempt to find more humane alternatives?

It’s such a shame that still only Nova supports multi-page dock icons and icon swipe gestures 🥲

mark my words - Burnham will be yet another all bark and no bite PM - he’ll have a run of the mill centrist career before he maybe passes proportional representation before leaving and handing power into a far right party since more of the same austerity and “bureaucracy” cuts will leave people feeling more and more disenchanted…

i hope I’m wrong…

mmm love me some warmongering propaganda arm funding my wholesome foss game engine…

i mean good for devs since 30k a month in funding is practically nothing for a game engine but just wish we didn’t have to get scraps from the PR of the industrial military complex…

Commission Blanch said it was not his “intent” for the technology to be used at protests “except if we have intelligence that there is a significant risk of someone seeking to do harm”.

But he said that could be the case at the upcoming Land Forces defence expo, which Perth will host in October, if police had intelligence of a threat to that event

inb4 harm means Palantir top brass not being able to attend because there’s protestors blockading the event

Asked about the cameras, opposition leader Basil Zempilas said he supported police having more tools to do their job.

“I’ve always had the view if you haven’t done anything wrong, you haven’t got anything to worry about, and I’m not sure it’s any different when it applies to this,” he said.

another dont thread on me shitlib licking the mass-surveillance boot at every opportunity

source/proof?

what about independent Uyghur news outlets? specifically one that was founded in response to trump gutting RFAs Uyghur service (from 20 reporters to just 1)

also let’s not pretend the recovery email is for the user - it’s for proton to ensure they don’t register spammers that can get their domain blocklisted

but tankies keep telling me Russia is fighting the ukrainazis - maybe Tommy is secretly an anti-imperialist??

hey it’s the dude that claimed he just had to get a private jet since it was “basically free” by using what he calls “girl math” where he gets to write it off as a company expense by using it to make vlogs of his family going on vacation to Cabo - but I’m sure he truly cares about FOSS values when making videos like this 😒

POSE had a solution to this…

if the feature was “exploratory” why are they mad? you explored what the reaction would be by having the code behind a feature flag in prod and the response wasn’t good so you scrapped it? seems like you should be glad wired did you a solid by not having you waste engineering hours developing a feature nobody wanted.
