Sounds very similar to the old Soviet pacemakers with radioisotope batteries. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, records about them got lost and so a bunch of people have been buried with pretty radioactive stuff in their chest. I don't think we (as developed societies) are going to take that risk for some phone batteries...

Yes, I think so but only indirectly. Distinguishing between the "same" community on different instances or rather identifying the more active one is already pretty hard, the only thing one can really go by is the number of users who have joined. The large number of abandoned copycat communities on 3+ servers doesn't make this easier since a lot of these have a bunch of users but are dead.

A technical solution could be some kind of "hotness" score for instances to identify the interesting/active ones.

You might be correct, they promise just way too much money. If it look too good (and this does, $100 for work thats at most one hour) it's just a scam.

Easier explanation: She didn't post it, it's an obvious fake designed to put her in jail.

Crazy that people here immediately believe its her that posted this when the Jerusalem Post reports it. It's a random account in her name with a widely available picture, it not hers

Why are there guards of the opposite sex in prisons? Prisons are single-sex so why not staff them similarly? Sure, there are also same-sex predators but the number must be much lower.

Not all jews are zionists and implying so is antisemitic. It's the same old "dual-loyalty" smear levied against jews for hundreds of years.

Worldnews was always really bad on reddit, I was also surprised to see that true for lemmy too. Lots of different world views and biases I guess.

So far the Israeli government under Netanyahu has mostly done things to strengthen Hamas, a more radical and violent (but controlled by the vastly stronger Israeli military, or so they thought) group in power in Gaza was deemed beneficial since it prevents the formation of "reasonable", anti-violent advocates for Palestinian liberation. Didn't really work out that well I guess.

Wtf, they do that for a device that's that expensive?

Ah I see. So you don't think he's a fascist mainly because you're uninformed. Hard to help you there.

I don't think you can derive anything about "the left" from this. You can't e.g. blame users from hexbear for not wanting to bring the debate to others, in fact that's why many instances defederate from them. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
