I’ve said this a million times before, but if we’re playing gods anyway, can’t we make them dog sized also?

I would totally get one or maybe two.

This is good news for bot farms working to sow division.

What? Sweden don’t have scouts? My daughter was on a scout camp there last year and I believe there were swedish scouts also.

Regardless, in Denmark we have a few scout organizations. One of them KFUM (which would translate to the same as YMCA) which is the christian boy’s scouting org, that also allows girls, and the similar one for girls that don’t allow boys. Both of them has Christianity as a pretty foundational thing and most of the clubhouses are in or near churches and they have church services on camps and shit. Then there’s DDS (dark blue uniforms) and they’re not connected to any faith, but are still committed to the “spiritual development” of the scout. However this can be done in other ways than inflicting religion on children. In 1973 they merged the boy and girl scouts, so it’s just one thing now. The yellow scouts branched from DDS in the 80’s, with a mission to go back to more traditional scouting values. Not sure what that means, but they’re a also non-religious and non-political organization.

Finally there’s some Danish Baptist scouts but I don’t know much about them other than they’re likely a more religious variant of KFUM, attached to another christian flavor.

Yes, will the injustices ever stop? Here’s a great article about it.

I don’t mind that other users have this option. I’m not worried about them. It’s all the expected shenanigans of the companies that’ll remove their apps from the store I don’t much like.

Nah, they should keep that stuff on Android. I like that I only have one app store. I used custom roms, weird alternative app stores and all that stuff for years on Android, but I like that iOS is built on a different philosophy.

Also, I just realized today that if EU forces Apple to open iOS to more stores, shouldn’t they force MS and Sony to do the same for Xbox and Playstation?

I’m using Voyager browse and interact with Lemmy. It looks more or less exactly like Apollo and it’s a webapp. There’s a few small things that’s not exactly as a native app, like double tapping the top of a scrolling window to scroll to top, but it’s really minor. I bet most people wouldn’t know it was a webapp if they weren’t told.

It even works with the sharing intent so I can share to native apps. Pretty awesome.

I all for the Rogan-bashing, but had he not since admitted he’s seen enough evidence to realize that the moon landing was real?

However, knowing full well that he, although he considers himself a “sceptic” (in the modern sense of the word, where no actual scepticism is involved), was taken in by a conspiracy theory made up of whole cloth, it doesn’t make him the least bit less likely to fooled by other conspiracy theories – probably because they, mistakenly, makes him feel smart.

For me it was the Joan of Arc thing.

But I think more generally the implied notion that mentally unstable people shouldn’t be helped because of art.

I’ve researched this by watching literally dozens of minutes of videos on YouTube. Real hardcore stuff with some things that most sheeple probably wouldn’t be ready to accept, but it directly contradicts the main stream media narrative, so you know it’s true. Also, basically all the claims were widely discredited and it’s pretty obvious that so much energy wouldn’t have been put into disproving something that was actually untrue, unless someone was trying to hide something from us.

Sure, but if we just didn’t do stuff because it’s hard, then we’d never chosen to go to the moon. That guy on TV said so.

We might not do stuff because it’s an awful and downright terrible idea, but both looking at humanity as whole and my own personal experience, that doesn’t seem to be much of a deterrent either.

Yeah, why should such a thing be regulated?

We all probably still remember the East Palestine accident, but all that turned alright in the end didn’t it?

Yeah it makes total sense. It’s a fantastic way to make sure you only get the most gullible, hardcore idiots that are easy to make money off.

It’s like those longer running scams. They have built in mechanisms to find the best marks, by disqualifying anyone who might not be easy to convince early.

Same here. If you cultivate a crowd of conspiracy theorists, that have a proven track record of being easily swayed not by evidence but by lack of evidence, then you got the full-day morons eating from your hand.

Musk’s posts go to everyone I’m pretty sure. Many people unfollowed him and he didn’t like that, so now you get his excretes whether you want to or not.

Stupid headlines like this, are making us collectively dumber.

I expect you’re kidding, because it’s hard to believe someone made it onto Lemmy without knowing this, but here goes anyway:

They never said “don’t decrypt client side”.

Lots of things you probably use every day is end-to-end encryption.

HTTPS in your browser uses TLS to ensure that the content you receive is encrypted on its way to you and that it hasn’t been tampered with on the way (confidentiality and integrity).

What if push messages doesn’t happen on your phone but is somehow “pushed” from somewhere else?

Netflix was in competition with piracy. They competed mostly on two parameters: price and convenience, but catalog is also a secondary or tertiary parameter.

Piracy is kinda free unless you pay for newsgroups, seedbox or straight up membership. It’s also inconvenient for most people. The catalog is basically unlimited if you know where to look.

Paid streaming or digital purchases wins on convenience, but at a greater price and with a limited catalog.

With older content constantly being bounced around different services, aggressive anti-shsring measures and continually rising prices, paid streaming is becoming less and less attractive, as we’re slowly sliding back to the times of cable TV, albeit video on-demand this time around.

“prayer warrior” is one of my favorite concepts. Those two words are just so comically incompatible.

They will make up stories that ultra sounds scans is a nefarious way of vaccinating you without consent and consequently refusing to go to important checkups.

They’re incredibly predictable. Just pretend to barely understand the subject matter, then invent the most alarmist way of misunderstanding it.
