What they really mean is: Polite to them, the people with the means of easily inflicting deadly violence upon others.

Gun ownership is just another expression of the deep selfishness ingrained in American culture.

Someone should tell Retsuko about this kind of service.

The main blocker, at least so far, was Lemmy is designed mainly to use use Docker containers to version itself and its main dependencies like Postgresql, while YunoHost runs on the bare system. And since YunoHost is still on Debian 11 it only has access to Postgresql 13 while Lemmy now wants 15. This unfortunately is hard to resolve. YunoHost doesn’t want to introduce Docker, and upgrading the entire platform to Debian 12 is slowly happening but it’s a lot of work.

Because what Twitter really needs right now is less engagement.

If they really do shut off API access I’ll go into partial link aggregator withdrawal. My Lemmy instance still isn’t upgraded to the latest versions which are compatible with apps, so I don’t browse on my phone.

That’s addressed in the video. This is more likely aimed at disrupting target identification from low quality photo/video like drones or wide angle satellites.

I’m no expert but I think we’re looking at parts of the vehicle which were outside the pressure hull. Those parts would not have been subjected to such extreme forces when the hull failed.

Most bits of a DSV are actually outside of the pressure hull, just look at the designs of Trieste or Limiting Factor. This is to maximize the space available to human passengers inside the relatively small (and very expensive to construct) hull.

I mean obviously “Taxation without Representation” is one of the foundational injustices which led to the declaration of independence, so I’m in favor for letting non-citizen residents vote. But if the state constitution says voting is only for citizens then maybe the state constitution needs to be amended…

A few states do have provisions for letting non-citizens vote in local elections: https://ballotpedia.org/Laws_permitting_noncitizens_to_vote_in_the_United_States

We continue to inch closer to full-blown corporatocracy. We’ve all watched and read enough cyberpunk to see where that leads.
