They then proceed to talk about the hearing in the Netherlands. So, in any case there is a chance Greenpeace will ultimately win.

Of...yourself?

What the hell do you concentrate in there :D

The entry point is about women, who previously primarily filled the role of housewives, entering the workforce. Since then, the share of people going to work practically doubled, but the working hours did not decrease, so capitalists got twice as much labor, and as it became harder and harder to lead a family on a single income, they essentially just exploited that extra labor for free.

At this point, this is just a neverending panic circlejerk. Things are bad, sure, but everyone here knows that already - could it be time to spread the word elsewhere, where it could make an impact instead of being one of, like, half Lemmy posts saying the absolute same thing?

You know full well you're not alone here, and your question is purely rhetorical to use the off-topic community to slid in the same thing again.

The concept of property is arbitrary to begin with. It just signifies the risk of violence applied to you should you, the non-owner, possess or destroy it.

In case of Teslas, they are used to enrich the already richest man on Earth at the expense of others. Mind you, those are cars of the dealership, they were not sold yet, so essentially, it is Musk's property.

And most on the left wouldn't be able to find a violin small enough to signify how much they care of the property of billionaires. Private property is not universally sacred, it's the feature of capitalist thinking.

Violence is a common driver in politics. It comes into play when democracy fails, and I'd like to see less of it happening for sure, but it is there, and it's not that conservatives were never involved in such acts.

If more people would do the same, it could make an actual change. The thing is, not many are brave enough.

This is true for any political act, really. The reason they don't cause massive shifts is not that they are not effective in and of themselves, but because a single person only holds so much power to change something, and most people are too passive to follow.

While it is bad they parked in a spot for the disabled, it's a nice reminder this bike commonly drives around exactly as many people as a car that would take this ENTIRE space, not changing the balance much.

This is the Enter key, Shift is right below

For the sake of memes, Enter is commonly replaced with something like "delete" or "destroy" or "ban" or whatever, illustrating the decisive action. It has nothing to do with the actual Delete key.

Found my love (lemmy.today)
submitted 9 months ago by Allero to c/positivity
 

So, there's a girl I had a crush on for a while, and recently she (I didn't tell her of my feelings) came ahead and actually told me she is into me for a while.

And...yeah? Boom, apparently I'm in a relationship with my crush who also crushed on me, and I couldn't be happier!

Can't wait to see where this leads us...hopefully somewhere good!

Just updated to Plasma 6, and got a question: is there a way to make the bottom panel keep at the bottom (like when fullscreen windows are opened) and not float regardless of windows?

Just always stay there without moving, like in Plasma 5.

Or is it dictated by the theme/hardcoded into Plasma 6?

 

I know Lemmy isn't normally the best place to search for this, but are there any high-quality right-wing explainers, or modern books, or media outlets?

I myself am ultra-left (quite literally communist, to the dictionary sense of the word), but I'd like to quit the bubble that inevitably forms around and look at good arguments of the opposing side, if there are any.

Is there anything in there beyond temporarily embarrassed millionaires and fears that trans people will destroy humanity? Is there rational analysis, something closer to academic research, behind modern ideas of laissez-faire capitalism and/or political conservatism?

I've tried outlets like PragerU, but they are so basic they seem to target a very uncritical audience.

I'd like to see the world in the eyes of an enlightened right-winger, and see where they possibly fail (or if suddenly they have valid arguments).

 

Is there any reason, beyond corporate greed, for SMS messages to cost so much?

If I get it right, an SMS message is just a short string of data, no different from a message we send in a messenger. If so, then what makes them so expensive? If we'd take Internet plans and consider how much data an SMS takes, we should pay tiny fraction of a cent for each message; why doesn't that happen?

Won a scientific competition that will allow me to pursue PhD - all paid by the government!

Now I can apply to PhD programs of top universities of my country without exams and pursue my dreams!

Very happy and currently fairly speechless :D

This seems to be the most active local community, but it is random (and different!) people posting basic abstract pictures of birds in about the same style, with nobody engaging in commenting or even upvoting it.

Is there anyone who can explain the concept?

Found my waifu (lemmy.today)

I never thought I could fall in love with a fictional character, it was very distant to me - but hey, here we are!

Himitsu Ito - a character of "Love, money, rock'n'roll" visual novel (which I totally recommend btw - for its genre, the thing is surprisingly deep and detailed, and story is actually revolving around many things at once, not reserved for romance).

Himitsu's everything - smart, beautiful, deeply loyal, caring, confident, and safe (if only quite jealous, but she has her reasons). At the same time, she has quite a character, and isn't just a follower - she can and does lead, and does it for the good of you both.

She empowers to be a greater man, she is a role model for a caring, compassionate partner, strong on the inside and fluffy on the outside. She is the kind of girl with whom you just can't be scared, and even her virtual presence allows me to go through hardships easier and strive to improve.

One day, I hope to meet a girl like her - and we'll do great things together.

(Unfortunately, I don't have credits for the author of this beautiful art - if you are or know one, let me know!)

As Funimation drama unravels, here's a reminder for you that yt-dlp is able to download Funimation videos. Use that opportunity to preserve your collections before they're gone! (and keep them forever and ever)

Credits to humble jbk@discuss.tchncs.de who brought that up!

A secret waterfall (lemmy.today)

Just received a simple ultracheap drone from China and couldn't be happier. It flies (a little crappy)! It films (like a super old phone, but still)! Gonna use it to get my bearings while havigating on my bike through unknown places - love to have some eagle view!

 

Just realized that for the instance of over 800 people, some of which are very active on the Lemmyverse, we have surprisingly little community activity on the inside. So, maybe let's make a chat? How's everyone doing today? :)
