Well, y that metric, it’s successful. He wanted to flex and bomb. He did. That was the goal. Mission accomplished.

People keep ascribing normal behaviours and motivations to Trump. He clearly doesn’t fit in that box due to mental health issues. He neither understands the purposes of his actions nor has the foresight to see their effect. It’s all reaction, but as long as the emperor continues to have clothes, it works, unfortunately. Those around him can manipulate him until he turns on them. It’s a constant shuffling of loyalties and policies for self benefit.

It’s assumed this was Israel’s doing. Not trumps. As are all his actions. Someone else is pulling his strings.

If you want to change capitalism structure, tearing down privacy tools is not the way to do it.

How much does the equivalent salary at Whatsapp pay?

And northern Ireland is not in Great Britain.

No, it's Great Britain AND Northern Ireland. Both being part of the UK. If you're going to be pedantic, be correct.

Free movement between Ireland and the UK predates the EU and continues to this day. One part of the Brexit discussions was continuing border free travel between north and south on the island of Ireland.

I agree, nobody is coming to save you and you have to do it for yourselves. Bombing protestors, however distasteful, will make it so there is nothing worth saving.

Don't get me wrong. Terrorism can work. And today's terrorist is tomorrow's freedom fighter. I don't thinknthe USA is at that level of oppression for mqny people to be sympathetic to a terrorist movement, which is a requirement for it to work.

Northern Ireland? Nobody. And tensions remain today but people can love normal loves without oppression.

Or you mean Palestine? Terrorist attacks on either side didn't help either. Eventually it lead to genocide.

Firstly I'm not a centrist. My beliefs lie firmly on the left.

Secondly, you're not addressing my points.

It's easy to be edgy and support terrorism from behind a keyboard. The reality of living under terrorism threats from either side is no better than fascism. See northern Ireland, Palestine, Chechnya, Afghanistan, Nigeria. The only one I'd like to live in is northern Ireland, where the threat of terrorism has subsided due to treating each side as people and ending terrorism.

The only way nazism grows is by treating people like they are not people. This is why nazis take over.

You're conflating state sponsored violence with random Nazi supporters joking them as private malitia.

Absolutely violence should not be avoided where violence is already being used. However, by all account these nazis were protestors, not the agents of the government.

Nazis are still people and there is still a spectrum of violence and beliefs. In the Nazi bar analogy, they all end up being nazis by virtue of association and tolerance of Nazi views. You're making the leap to all being Nazis immediately.

Non violent far right protestors have the right to protest and their beliefs. Where they have already perpetrated violence, they should receive it in kind or, ideally prosecution.

The use of IED is not that and just normalises it's use. Which side has the bigger propensity for violence and bombing of unarmed civilians?

The Dems and the left have a problem where they tut tut and pearl clutch rather than taking action. Jumping to bombing protests is not the answer, however distasteful those protests are.

And Guam, and even US embassies based in Europe are technically part of the USA too, but that's not what's being referred to.

Most people would be surprised if he was transparently honest at any point in his professional career. It's all spin and lies.

Terrorism with IEDs is a threat to safety of all and to democracy, even if it is directed at nazis.

Also, what do you think the Nazis do next?

 

When I go to a post with video media, on iPad, there doesn't seem to be a way to exit. For images, they can be swiped away or touch outside to exit. For videos, ice tried different gestures and there is no back button or X.

I use Android daily, with a back swipe gesture, but there is no such gesture I'm aware of on iPad. Does anyone know how or should I submit a bug or feature request?

 

I’m trying to set containers for some websites on a shared windows terminal with multiple users under the same login. We use some cloud software and each user has their own log in. Manually opening websites in container manager allows this, but I’m struggling to do so for opening in container for the home page.

Each log in just launches in the default container (unassigned). I’ve tried using bookmark tree, which seems to support containers, but I can’t get it to work. Assigning a site to always open in a container doesn’t seem to work either as it’s the same site for multiple users (which seems to be the purpose of multi account container), so if it always opens in container A, person B still needs to manually open in their container.

 

I just recently got the 190 update pushed. It mentioned lots of fixes. One was image handling.

I have found that now exiting an image is a bit slow or glitchy. A single gesture to go back does not exit and instead it needs two. Tapping an image instead still closes it but there is a delay that wasnt there before.

I'm on a pixel 7pro with gesture navigation.

 

My phone coverage stopped for a period. I was using connect at the time and a comment failed. I initially thought it was a big but noted after restarting, it still was out. Then I checked with a test search to find it was all internet.

A few minutes later internet was back. Went back into Lemmy and refreshed. No data showing. I checked down-for-me for my instance and it was up. Refreshed again. No data.

Again restarted app and it was fine then. So, it seems he connection outage did not allow refresh after it came back, despite a restart during the outage.
