For myself? A midi-file library for music (1gb is easily tens of thousands of songs), some audio porn (video takes too much space), a whole bunch of E-Books (tabletop rpg, science, literature etc.), compilers for C, a bunch of core python packages etc.

Meanwhile I’d also head over to my university to warn staff of the impending doom such that they can spread the word to other institutions and start rescuing as much data as possible to non-digital formats.

Deciding within 30 seconds, C. B is clearly worse and math seems to imply similar odds for A but it takes too long to calculate.

110SEK (~10€)/month, 8gb of internet, unlimited calls & SMS on a student plan in Sweden. 5-40mbit speed down. EU roaming included.

This is a genuine effect well known in commerce - people are more likely to enter when there are already customers.

Why not?

The stated goal of entering Lebanon was to end the threat from Hezbollah - if they stay away from the border and allow the Lebanese government to enforce rule of law, hasn’t that been fulfilled?

That is simply incorrect. I suggest that you educate yourself further on the topic and refrain from making similarly uninformed statements on related topics in the future.

Here is the wikipedia page of all current members of knesset:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_members_of_the_twenty-fifth_Knesset

Going from the top of the list of current knesset members, we have Likud party members (the current ruling party).

No. 4 on the list is Amir Ohana, current speaker of the Knesset. He is the child of two moroccan jews, and also happens to be gay.

No. 7 Shlomo Karhi, minister of Communications, Tunisian heritage.

No. 8 David Bitan - born in Morocco.

Q.E.D, feel free to find more examples on your own, there are plenty.

I would say that demographic tensions in the US, colloquially “american racism” primarily have a particular flavour - namely focusing on skin colour. In other parts of the world demographic tensions come in many other forms. Between Europeans for instance it is more often cultural and religious tensions (secular/atheist vs religious, protestant vs catholic, germanic vs latin etc).

For each region and people these sorts of tensions tend to have a basis in different historic catalysts. In Israel for instance, there are jewish-arab tensions with a long and complicated history, interreligious tensions (christians - muslims - religious jews - secular/atheist), intra-jewish ethnic tensions (mizrahi-sephardim-ashkenazi) and many others. Similar tensions can be found in other countries in the middle east.

The problem with applying the american lens to these other areas is that it will miss important aspects and risks exacerbating problems by applying inappropriate remedies.

Yep - a lot of westerners fail to understand that a majority of Israelis have middle-eastern or north-African ancestry, even if excluding the large arab Israeli demographic. Depicting the people of Israel as a monolith is a very crude oversimplification

Price of oil coming down, sanctions taking effect. Europe just needs to keep up with supporting for a while longer whilst the Russian economic downturn turns into a collapse.

Whilst I agree that some mods may be overzealous and that the fediverse has a serious slant, you also seem to have behaved very uncivilly.

In any case, unlike reddit, there are many options. When lemmy.ml/c/world bans me for criticizing genocides comitted by the USSR & CCP I can still post to lemmy.world/c/world or even create my own community for world news elsewhere.

Trying to apply american racism to israeli demographics may be one of the quickest ways to show your ignorance on the topic.

On mobile i use mutify, which simply mutes audio whenever an ad starts. Dead simple and works like a charm!

Most human acticity requires some degree of mining. Lithium, copper, uranium etc. The impact of that however pales in comparison to the sheer volumes of land that are destroyed by climate change and fossil fuel extraction. Besides, when mines finally do shut down they often become havens for wildlife.

Dags för piratbyrån 2.0?

There is a larger usage of fossil fuels than there otherwise would have been. A certain portion of new renewables replaced nuclear power instead of fossil fuelled plants.

So yes, Germany did prioritize removing safe, clean energy over removing dirty, dangerous energy.

Not sure if it’s my favourite, but I definitely haven’t seen it mentioned on the internet: Kai Chronicles!

It’s an app with the entire lone wolf saga CYOA books in digital format, for free, no ads.

Definitely would recommend.

Yeah, it’s the same thing that lets us have a site like lemmy

Pretty cool, now if only more people would start using it…

Here’s hoping that the Russian people get fed up with Putins ruination of the country and put an end to this madness.

You really want to go for sarcasm and whataboutism to defend torture?

At least in my book, it’s wrong regardless of who’s doing it, but maybe Lemmy disagrees.
