PupBiru, to piracy in Does the idea of this concern anyone else? Why is no one talking about it?

PupBiru, to asklemmy in What's the significance of calling it "Israel-Hamas War" vs "Israel-Gaza War"?

Hamas terrorist attacks also fall into that definition
yup you’re absolutely right and nobody here is disputing that… this isn’t a black and white one side good one side bad situation: BOTH hamas and israel are fucking awful here… you’re also probably going to say that it’s hamas’s fault that civilians are being killed because they’re using them as human shields… also right! however, that doesn’t absolve israel of all responsibility: there’s a lot more they could be doing to reduce the civilian casualties

civilians had chosen to cooperate
yeah cool how about you leave your home and basically everything you own so that it can be bombed to shit and see if you just cooperate… don’t blame the people who are just bystanders

that word doesn’t mean what you think it means

actually, i think it’s you that doesn’t understand what the word means so here’s the definition:

Genocide is the intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part. In 1948, the United Nations Genocide Convention defined genocide as any of five "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group". These five acts were: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group. Victims are targeted because of their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly.

partial targeting is still genocide

PupBiru, to upliftingnews in Biden student-debt plan hailed as ‘big step forward’ for millions of borrowers

just because it’s shit doesn’t make it untrue… what cdf12345 said isn’t wrong: conservatives challenged and rolled back previous debt forgiveness… they’d absolutely try and do the same with pretty much anything progressives do, so everything has to move in baby steps

blaming republicans for lack of progress is not their only play: you can be frustrated by the minimal progress, but to say they do nothing at all is incorrect and only helps conservatives move the US backward

i don’t think “solely” (he alone) is correct, given the myriad problems with how the USA funds higher education: he may have contributed to 1 of many problems

also “about to literally crash because of” is a stretch and a half when there’s a war going on, the aftermath of a global pandemic, and the various other issues that have cropped up in the last few years

being hyperbolic doesn’t help move discussion forward; in fact often it will put people off-side because they assume the underlying facts are bogus

PupBiru, to bestupdates in My (29f) parents ghosted me 5 years ago after my wedding and now reached out. What do I do?
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

queer people often learn that family are just people in your life… many of us have chosen family who love and respect us for who we are, because our family have let us down beyond measure. don’t ever feel obligated to stick around for anyone just because they’re family: surround yourself with people who love you, regardless of if you share blood relations or not

PupBiru, to asklemmy in What replacement for each major social media do you use
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

also worth noting that as usually with fediverse platforms, pixelfed data is accessible from other platforms like mastodon

ie you can retoot a pixelfed post afaik, and i believe that at least in kbin that means you can have a threaded conversion about a pixelfed post?

@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

i even found out the other day that pixelfed does stories and live streaming!

though those things are based on reading the configuration settings in documentation, so i have no idea what those features are like….

PupBiru, to RedditMigration in Reddit threatens the mods of r/CyberpunkGame (the main subreddit for Cyberpunk 2077). Mods decide to go down in a blaze of glory, whole sub agrees.

PupBiru, to RedditMigration in Six verified Reddit employees discussing the current atmosphere at the company. Featuring "First the company needs to get rid of Steve", "It's garbage", and actively hoping to be laid off. : r/ModCoord
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

yeah i’m not sure this theory holds water… it’s pretty obvious the community won’t just give up: everyone saw what happened with mastodon

the fediverse is ideologically opposed to corporate and capitalist interference, so they’re just pushing people to a platform that they have even less control over, in a manner that pushes people to be more anti-capitalist, to a platform whose very existence is about being anti-corporate!

mayyybe you could say that combined with threads the “long play” is to embrace, extend, extinguish essentially moving reddit to facebook? but that’s a stretch and a half

i agree with hanlons razor here: spez is just a fucking egotistical moron

PupBiru, to AskKbin in How do I remove sticker residue from glass containers?
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

orange oil is one i haven’t seen mentioned yet!

i haven’t tried olive oil and other similar oils like others have suggested, but there’s a product in my country that’s specifically sticky stuff remover (like label residue) and it’s made of orange oil

PupBiru, (edited ) to asklemmy in What do you use for a domain registrar?
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

my go-to for anything they support is porkbun: they’re cheap, reliable, and technically competent

for backup for domains they don’t cover, 101domain has a huge selection

for actual DNS hosting, i use cloudflare (migrating from dnsimple) but also wouldn’t be against route53

PupBiru, to asklemmy in What do you use for a domain registrar?
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar

+1 for porkbun! i don’t have a bad word to say about them: cheap, reliable, technically competent

PupBiru, to asklemmy in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?
@PupBiru@kbin.social avatar
