If you use my snippet, I want your game. If you don’t agree, then you can’t use my snippet. The purpose of the GPL is simply to prevent people who don’t share from benefitting from people who do, which I think is pretty fair.

Absolutely. But I don’t want to influence anything, just make the OP slightly happier and hopefully have a good read myself.

I tend to upvote everything, no matter how much I disagree. I don’t trust my own opinions or the authors’, all of them are flawed in some way.

I’m a Marxist-Leninist, member of an organized group.

I believe countries try to shape and weaponize citizens’ opinions about other countries, so I refuse to defend or criticize them unless I can argue that doing so is beneficial to my ideas (i.e., not based on feelings or ethics). Thus, I’m neutral towards most countries and defend multipolarity.

I tend to doubt my ideas as much as I can.

It’s perfectly nice to say things I believe to be true and learn that they aren’t, why wouldn’t it be.

Most protestors were students, but most casualties were anti-Deng workers. I’ll try to find a source on this, I’m surprised wikipedia doesn’t even mention this fact…

Tht wasn’t quite nice on your part, but still thank you.

Thanks, I wasn’t aware of those actions by the army. Guess that gives me a different view of the incident…

The leader of the protestors actually stated on western media that they needed “bloodshed”, “only then will the Chinese people wake up”, so idk how “peaceful” it was supposed to be. And the army didn’t attack them, in fact the fights only started after both the army and protestors had left the square and a few protestors attacked the anti-riot policemen.

And it’s common practice to mobilize the army anyway, Spain has done every time a territory has tried to declare itself independent. The Tiananmen square protest lasted several days, so obviouly someone had to (peacefully) disperse protestors.

It’s okay to disagree, but I don’t see how your comment contributes to the conversation. Let me clarify my point: the actions taken by the Chinese government are in line both with what any other country usually does in similar conditions and Chinese citizens’ desires.

Well, call me a tankie, but I don’t see the issue with a coup attempt leaving ~240 dead (mostly policemen and radical communist protestors), or the government cracking down on extremists after absolutely massive terrorist attacks. Both have happened in my country (Spain), much worse than there, and I see no one complaining. And even that is nothing compared to what the US did after 9/11!

Everybody seems to pretend that they would not actually want the government to take such actions if their life was in such danger. Like, hell, if I had as many terrorist attacks in my region as Xinjiang used to have, I would be cheering for the government to nuke all extremists from orbit. That’s what happened here and we had a fraction of that.

Edit: also, I’ve never heard of those events in Spanish media, if I were from the US I would really wonder why I hear about them so much. So hopefully when everybody’s sent to die in Taiwan I don’t fall for the old trick of manufactured consent.

Edit: I promise to do some moro thorough research on the events. Thanks for your thoughtful responses.

I used to play Kenshi at 1-2 fps. Now I’ve got a better CPU so it’s not fun anymore…

You can see it in the sidebar. E.g. !asklemmy@lemmy.ml has 12.7K subscribers.

Yeah, I fully agree. It should be something more along the lines of “sane defaults” (seeing all instances, automatic recommendation on signup, app-level migration) than “autopilot”, but I will probably discuss this more once I have the time.

Could be done in apps. Managing federation under the hood, I mean. I’m an absolute smoothbrain regarding all things web (or mobile lol), but I use my barebones, cobbled-together desktop Lemmy client sometimes, so maybe I could repurpose it for other users?

Can’t find anything about that over on GitHub, sorry…

If the site is not federated, it’s not possible to leave it without also leaving all its content behind.

Well, there are not many details to share anyway (registration is just username/password, e-mail is optional). And since everything is federated, they’d need to bring down all of Lemmy, which may not even be possible for them due to different instances being hosted in different countries.

Nah it’s great to have all of you here <3 I literally screenshot the (presemably) last time a post of mine actually went to the top haha. As long as users from the soon-to-blackout r/PCM don’t start flame wars with lemmygrad, all will be okay.

I use the-federation.info
