Taliban bans women from ‘hearing other women’s voices’
  • The majority of the troops we trained were ex-taliban. Everyone knew it. The one thing that most people don't understand is that Afghanistan isn't really a country like most other countries, it's just a shit load of tribes, they have no national interest. So they don't care what happens halfway across the country.

    Stop Wasting Pumpkins!

    Russia says it might build its own Linux community after removal of several kernel maintainers.
  • It's just like their foxbat claims...turned out it was a flying brick.

    Edit: apparently I pissed off some tankies lol

    It's well known that the foxbat was heavily exaggerated in its capabilities. It's how we ended up with the f15 and it's insane capabilities. Just like now russia fighting in Ukraine, paper tiger.

  • He's another steve jobs...dude was an idiot for tech, but a salesman that could sell bananas to monkeys.

    Robinhood admits it’s just a gambling app.
  • The American consumer is swimming in debt. What new cars they buy is not indictive of affordable. Look at the loan lengths from 10 years ago to today. 72 month loans are now normal, and 84/96 is becoming more normal than they should.

    Stuck in the middle with you
  • Lol I might have to take that back....BES was a pile of epic smoldering shit...even the engineers would tell me it was shit. I'm pretty sure I reinstalled that damn thing a thousand times. It was like winning the lottery when the CEO finally wanted and iPhone and then forced the reset of the company to android or iPhone... myself and my junior admin had beers in the office when we got the last user off it and got to shut it down on a Friday. Best day ever.

    The Best Lemmy Client
  • I believe so, it's where a lot of us went at first, but then realized if the guy running it doesn't like you, he just will ban you. Which is fine, it's his site, but that's not what I or many others wanted.

  • Random BSOD from changing... absolutely fucking nothing, then spending 2 days trying to recover, before saying fuck it and reinstalling windows, so you can play WC1 or D1....good old days.

    Also printers can suck it. 20 years ago maintaining a fucking print server was bullshit.... I'd rather deal with BES for another 100 years.

    The Best Lemmy Client
  • When I started using lemmy I just grabbed every app for it and tried them all. Boost is the closest I was able to find, and it has a ton of options to get it looking and feeling like RIF. The others were good, but just different. I liked RIF because of how simplistic it was, boost thankfully gives that same simplistic feel.

  • If you where a RIF user, go with boost. It's as close to rif as it gets. Since the rif dev went to that ban happy tildes site.

    Trump says on Joe Rogan podcast his biggest White House mistake was hiring ‘disloyal people’
  • The problem was, masks aren't there to protect you, they're there to protect everyone else from you. So the idiots who didnt want to mask up, ended up fucking everyone. The people who needed to wear them didn't because they're fucking idiots.

    Goodbye from a Linux community volunteer
  • Here's you making excuses for removing all the Russians from the contributor list: "Russia invaded a sovereign nation...but that's a petty dispute...are you sure you're on the right instance? Sounds like you need to recreate your account here on ml..."

    Where is that a excuse? I was pointing out that it's not a petty dispute, russia is trying to wipe out Ukraine....the fuck.

    Your logic, if you can call it that, is that if the country you're from invades a sovereign nation, it makes sense to get kicked off the list. Guess which country invades sovereign nations every 3-6 years.

    Ooo oo, I know this one....is it....whataboutism again for $400 alex?

    To make another point, of course the US is relevant, its government is the one making this exact thing happen.

    Yea...no it's not, russia is doing that on their own.

    No more excuses, champ. Gotta look reality straight in the face.

    Ok. Reality, russia is a fucked up authoritarian state that willfully sends it's people to rape, murder and commit war crimes, like it got its war plans from the viking era. How's that for some reality. Champ.

    lol no it isn't.

    Yea...yea it is.

    Yes we all know this.

    Sweet....are we getting somewhere...

    The US has invaded at least 4 sovereign nations in the last 21 years. It has bombed far more in that time, including couping Libya, turning it from the highest HDI country into a failed state with open air slave markets.

    Ahhh nope apparently not....still humping about the USA.

    The RF has been comparatively less harsh on civilians. Look at what the US, NATO, and Israel do to civilians. They bomb residential buildings, pharmaceutical factories, hospitals, schools, buses, civilian infrastructure. Millions died in Iraq, about half children, in the 90s due to the US systematically destroying civilian infrastructure and then coordinsting tight sanctions.

    Hahahhaha holy fuck...o wait you're a tankie...

    And do you know what preceded the RF invasion? Ukraine ramping up its civilian shelling campaign in Donbas.

    And a russian apologist....man this is just hilarious...you really are following the .ml tankie guidelines.

    Given what the West does with its power that is a smart position to take.

    Lol for all the west's faults, we're still not even half as murderous as the authoritarian dictatorships you love.

    Yes and? You're just admitting that this is a chauvinist political move headed by the United States.

    Yea no...

    It's not a security risk at all, the Linux team has tight review procedures and all of these people have been making contributions as maintainers. There were zero concerns raised about their code.

    Because it's easier to just use sanctions as the reason. The idea that a authoritarian state wouldn't force their devs to create backdoors for their state is hilariously naive, but you won't see it that way because you're a brainwashed tankie.

    PS the US is not entitled to the world and every international project.

    Yea no shit? Who said they are?
