  • Because the statement is so stupid there is no way its true. He says Elon knows more about these voting computers than anyone one else and was able to rig it. Obviously that statement is not true Elon knows nothing about voting machines.

    We can pretend to believe Trump just to hold his feet to the fire but he’s so slippery he will slip out and we will be left sitting here looking like idiots for believing the dumb claim.



  • The one time I played goon of fortune I woke up in a Bush in the dunedin botanical gardens using the goonbag as a pillow. I had a ripped up shirt and jeans and it was very cold and a security man was shining a touch in my face. He drove me home, very nice guy.

    I knew I was getting old when I bought a box of goon and didn’t immediately rip the the bag out of the box.










  • Tiktok is worse because Facebook and Twitter cooperate with governments to remove misinformation. As well as allow governments to review their algorithm.

    Misinformation is going to exist. What’s bad is when a platform is pushing it intentionally and your government has no power to remove it.

    Even small countries like New Zealand were able to work with Facebook to get content removed.

    You could argue that Twitter and Facebook are now doing exactly what tiktok is accused of doing but the difference is that the next American president supports them promoting this misinformation.

    Its wild to me how active lemmy feels compared to mastodon. I told my normie friends about it when I found out about it during the migration and they insisted that it would die and recently I was able to update them and say its still going strong and its got its own unique vibe that feels different from reddit.




  • I would also like to see people punished for their warcrimes but considering most of the Hamas leadership is dead and Israel considers international law to be a suggestion I think there is some chance of that.

    I dont think casualties rates are relevant when considering a prisoner exchange rate.

    I’m mad here at this ceasefire because it’s an artificial end to the fighting. Its peace for the sake of peace and does not resolve any points of conflict. With no security arrangements and no sovereignty agreements the war has achieved nothing and both sides are taking 5 steps back. With no satisfactory off road provided for the Palestinian people there is no option to for them to develop and thus they will continue to repeat the cycle.

    I followed the different negotiations and there were times where both sides has reasonable proposals with 1 unagreeable part that neither side would budge off and the deal fell apart. If they had just come to an agreement on that 1 part they both could walk away with progress but instead we get this ceasefire where both walk away with nothing.
