What's the best approach to email today?
  • Self-hosting email is a major pain in the ass. Good luck avoiding spam filters.

  • "I saw a picture of a man in front of a tank, and we all know how evil chinese people are, so it's not hard to figure out what happened."

  • It is. The only evidence of a massacre of protestors in Tienanmen Square presented in that article is Wu'erkaixi's claim that he saw 200 people shot, but he had actually left the protests hours before the final protestors left, and literally everyone else present (including western journalists) says that the last protestors left peacefully.

    Edit: Here's an overview from the former Beijing bureau chief of The Washington Post, who was in Beijing covering the protests in 1989.

  • Not at Tienanmen Square. Confirmed by western reporters at the scene along with contemporary US diplomatic cables later leaked by Wikileaks. Western media is really attached to that image of the guy in front of a tank, so everyone just pretends it was the site of a mass murder. Really odd.

  • What do you think happened at Tienanmen Square? Because you might want to figure that out before you start grinning like a moron while asking a Chinese person about "how awful what happened at Tienanmen Square was".

    Real zlibrary link
  • It's still around, just redirects US IP addresses. I never bothered with an account though, I just browse their collections and download elsewhere.

    Why is there a lack of gifs/videos on Lemmy?
  • Video is simply the most superior type of media there is

    I really don't get this. There's totally some cool stuff on youtube, but I really dislike when someone points me to a video for more information on a topic. Especially if the presenter has "content creator" affectation.

    Scanning text is easier and faster.

    What apps/programs should I get
  • Office is obviously handy. Download a legitimate release and activate using this. Other than that, I only use pirated software on an airgapped computer.
