The world is getting used to ignoring what Trump says.

They'll just stop any ship not coming to or from the US. Just like how ICE abducts everyone who isn't white enough, citizen or not.

My point is if you want to hurt Google advertising for them hoping they lose the trademark is not going to do it. Naming whatever alternative search engine you used to spread awareness is much more effective.

"Kleenex" being more common than "facial tissue" is not hurting the Kleenex brand at all.

So it would be accurate to say: despite JCPOA not being perfect, Trump's actions have only made the situation worse than if he had left the previously existing agreement in place.

So what has improved about the situation since Trump threw out the JCPOA?

"Not perfect" doesn't mean it wasn't batter then the current situation.

Not much civilians can do about it...

So you're saying the meme is accurate.

They tried to protest

A proper protest doesn't have an ending time, it has ending conditions.

"We protest until the government stops the war" or "we protest until Trump is removed from office." Not "We protest until 10pm then go back to work on Monday."

Statesians on Lemmy want non-statesians to be killed because that is one more method that means they don't have to get off their asses.

But what about that big bribe that Trump said Iran gave him?

it's like adding an extra layer of user error.

An extra level of user error that you can't audit.

I work as an officer manager, an import part of my job is auditing all the contacts and payments to make sure they are being done properly. Then my work also gets audited on a regular basis.

And lot of time and money is spent making sure things are completed properly with the appropriate paperwork so that at any point someone can say "why did X happen?" and find all the related paperwork. AI can't do that, it's a black box.

The trick is end users will be held accountable for things their AI does, while corporations and governments will say "an AI did it" and wash their hands of it.

 

I haven't played a Metroidvania in a while and I'm looking for suggestions of some good ones to try. Some I would recommend:

Ender's: Lilies (Magnolias is good too, but play Lilies first. The setting and theme hits better.)

Ori and the Blind Forest / Will of the Wisps (Will of the Wisps did bring a tear to my eye)

Monster Sanctuary (a creature capture metroidvania)

Any system is good, interested to hear of other good ones that are out there.

 

Received a text from a pollster asking me who I'm going to vote for, is there any good reason to respond?

 

This is a weird one.

I am subscribed to Risa@startrek.website When browsing on my phone I can see the thumbnails just fine. When browsing on my desktop ublock origin blocks the thumbnails and avatars, but only from the startrek.website instance, and only when I'm accessing it through Lemmy.ca

If I go directly to startrek.website I can view everything fine, and other instances I am not encountering this issue with. Any idea what might be the cause? I am using Firefox.

 

I can go to the main page of a Lemmy instance and see whatever is active on that instance at the time, but is there a way to get something like r/all for all federated instances?
