The idea that Chinese reporting is less trustworthy than White reporting is just orientalism.
Hahahahah
This makes absolutely 0 sense.
Julian Assange will die in the US if he is extradited for telling the truth about US war crimes that the US media refuses to publish.
Yes. And we in the West know that. And we have niche media reporting the story. And we have mass protests supporting Julian Assange.
The situation of the press in the US and in most of Europe is shitty, no doubts. It's still miles better than China's, where in certain sensible topics there's only one opinion allowed and all else is not just not promoted by mainstream media but it's banned, censored and can get you in real trouble.
As long as it's sex work im fine. It's just that most "sex workerks" (people on onlyfans) do not sell "sex"/porn but a virtual sexual/intimate relationship to easily exploitable, lonely people. Which is just sad.
Land is a very scarce resource, not well suited for the free market. Also i find it "funny" that at least in my country paying a mortgage is actually cheaper than paying rent. It's just that banks have very strict requirements for financing people and so the problem is not that you can't afford the mortgage with your job income, but that you lack the initial capital to invest. Which feels honestly unjust and allows wealthy people to purchase all land and set whatever prices they want.
The barrier to entry for the market is too hig. Thus It's a market that's way too prone to monopolies and needs a strong regulation.
Also. Take the exact same apartment in the city center and take another one in a remote place. The rent for second one will be a lot cheaper even though the value of the materials of the building is the same, the costs of building up the apartment are the same etc. So called essential workers, who work near the city centre will not be able to afford an apartment close to where they work and will have to sustain additional costs for commuting, increasing their burden on society (infrastructure) and the environment, which is inefficient. And they will have a lower standard of life. This is shittier for everyone but the landlords.
Since a few months ago I get so many AI generated blog articles as top results with ddg (a lot with google as well, but less so)
Old video, still relevant
I think (do correct if wrong!) the EU has approved an interoperability law for big tech companies? So it should be just a matter of time until you can switch messaging app and still be able to communicate with people on wa and big messaging apps
Ofc if all your friends all use whatsapp zuck will still be able to read all your messages and get your phone number via your contacts... so it's only a partial solution. Still better than nothing tho.
Theres also jak and daxter, i believe it was called openGOAL?
This is the way i see the situation:
Letting meta join the fediverse means they will captivate the general audience and the fediverse will stop growing. Realizing this, it could lead a lot of contributors to the lemmy/mastodon/activitypub projects lose interest, which will slow down development and could eventually lead to the death of the fediverse project.
This is how it goes:
People get accustomed to all the content from Meta/Threads
Meta adds extra features to their website which do not work with other fediverse instances
People switch from lemmy/mastodon to threads or join threads directly and never ever consider joining the real fediverse.
The fediverse project either dies down or remains a niche project forever.

In msn messenger emoticons were what emojis are today. So to me emoticons and emojis are the same... i dont what to call the things op refers to... maybe ASCII emoticons?
Edit: turns out im wrong https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoticon
Edit: sort of wrong... emojis are also officially called emoticons
AFAIK european laws only allow to patent "inventions". Software is considered to be a series of "words" in whatever programming language you're using and, like sentences, it's not an invention and can't be patented.
On the other hand, software-assisted inventions can be patented as a whole.
With that said, software can still be considered a "work" protected by copyright laws.
Just one question: did you read the article linked?
Question: did you read the article linked? If the answer is yes and the comment still reflects your opinion, please leave
Edit: thought i was under a different post 🙄
Wow, thank you for the detailed response! Unfortunately I can't inspect the card before buying, so I'd have to take the risk. I'll ask the seller for how long the port has been broken and if he can pinpoint any particular events after which the port stopped working.
If you do 1080p gaming you will be bottlenecked https://pc-builds.com/bottleneck-calculator/
As per title. It has 2 DP ports and one hdmi. One DP out is broken. I know I won't ever need al 3 ports so it's not an issue for me. Only thing is, I have no idea what the cause of the issue could be and if it could "spread" in the future to all ports and render the gpu unusable. Maybe if someone has had experience with this situation before and could chime in? Or if you know the usual causes of this issue and if they could likely worsen or that's unlikely.
Thanks
According to cloudflare adminsIt's a bit more complicated than 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare DNS) censoring your internet, read here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19828702
Archive.is’s authoritative DNS servers return bad results to 1.1.1.1 when we query them. I’ve proposed we just fix it on our end but our team, quite rightly, said that too would violate the integrity of DNS and the privacy and security promises we made to our users when we launched the service.
The archive.is owner has explained that he returns bad results to us because we don’t pass along the EDNS subnet information. This information leaks information about a requester’s IP and, in turn, sacrifices the privacy of users. This is especially problematic as we work to encrypt more DNS traffic since the request from Resolver to Authoritative DNS is typically unencrypted. We’re aware of real world examples where nationstate actors have monitored EDNS subnet information to track individuals, which was part of the motivation for the privacy and security policies of 1.1.1.1.
edit: So it's actually the other way around, it's the archive.is admin who's blocking people who use Cloudflare DNS, read also their tweet here https://twitter.com/archiveis/status/1018691421182791680
I fully agree. On reddit i would use the all frontpage to find new communities. Here it doesnt work.
