The lack of a fine for that is insane.

Just a small one, as a treat.

Huh, I wonder why they seized it instead of shooting it like the others? It couldn't possibly be for the oil, right?

The Big Brother energy of that "We Can See You" eye in the middle is pretty high.

My closest guess is that it's a tankie viewpoint. But I think the real answer is that it was just made as a joke. The gay/trans flags being on opposite sides and the UK being on both sides seems pretty on the nose.

The moral of the story is: Watch PornHub videos instead of YouTube videos to do your part to support content creators.

I would just call him a child rapist. IMO that actually sounds worse than "pedophile" because you could apply the latter to someone who was attracted to minors but didn't rape any.

Regardless of his attraction, he raped children, so he's a child rapist.

NZXT Flex customers have never experienced a pre-tax subscription price increase and will never experience one unless they decide to switch subscription tiers.

I think they're forgetting the part where GN themselves were a NZXT flex customer who experienced subscription price increases. So this statement is already proven to be false before they even said it.

So... they released none of what the people want.

What even is her point? Is she afraid of AMAB people seeing girls undress because they might be attracted to them? Because, if so, I have news for her about lesbians.

The only way to fix that is to give everyone privacy. Which you probably should be doing anyways.

The fact that "unlimited toilet paper" is a luxury for prisoners says a lot about the way we treat other prisoners.

This is just a dog-whistle for racism, right? Barely even a dog-whistle. Making fun of a name because it's not european is pretty blatantly racist.

Crazy how the people who believe the government planned the pandemic are also on the side of the guy who ran the government at the time.

A correction to make from the research I did:

Mozilla did not say that Kit is non-binary or uses they/them pronouns. Nor did they use they/them pronouns for Kit in official material. They pointedly avoided using pronouns for Kit at all, to keep it ambiguous. It seems like their intention is for the user to see Kit as whatever gender they want Kit to be.

Easy, I can tell you for free that they have been tampered with.

Imagine if he waits for people to panic and sell off and then buys back into the market.

In this case, I expect that the market is due to tank for real soon, so that would maybe be a stupid move, but it seems like in general someone could literally trade on the perception that they're an insider (regardless of whether they have real inside information or not) to manipulate the market in their favor.

Karma on reddit tracks the accumulated likes and dislikes a user has gotten on all of their posts. Lemmy does not have a number like that.

Edit: What this means in practice is that on Reddit there are some users who make a lot of low-effort posts to get that karma number to go up and get a sense of accomplishment from that (even when they get a negative reputation among the other users), whereas on Lemmy that's not really a thing. Lemmy has power-users that become well-known, but they're more well-liked because they aim to gain actual reputation instead of just farming a karma number.

I'm all in favor of shitting on UHC, but ABA for autism is rather problematic, so they're actually on the same page as the autism community on this one.

EDIT: For those unfamiliar with it, it's basically the autism equivalent of gay conversion therapy, trying to convert autistic children to neurotypical behavior. It's not good for the autistic person's own mental health.

I do mind, actually. In that I specifically want my taxes to go to that rather than going to more bombs for genociding Palestinians.

My lesbian GF played 5D chess by clocking that I was an transfem egg and dating me for years before I realized it for myself. XD
