You mean, someone who asks what people could do to end violence are bad people?
And people who support violence are good people?
I’d rather take my ban in some hate-spreader Community with pride when justice in the real world rules over terrorism.
Well, 172 nations on Earth see it like this:
Israel is a friendly state in hostile neighbourhood…
Hamas and Hisbollah are terrorist organisations.
Or least they were. Nowadays we better speak in past tense about them. This bites you, doesn’t it?
I’d rather take my ban in some hate-spreader Community with pride when justice in the real world rules over terrorism.
I am just posting facts with which 90% of all people on Earth agree:
Israel is a friendly state.
Hamas is an internationally recognized terrorist organisation.
Or to be precise: It was. Nowadays it is mostly history. This bites you, doesn’t it?
No.
Reddit rarely bans. VERY rarely.
And NEVER for comments.
Sure, they delete like hell. Posting something in r/news is harder than landing on the moon, same goes for r/noncredibledefence and other Reddits.
But Lemmy is going bonkers, many high-profile Communities are held under an iron thumb like the moderators are all paid by the Axis-of-Evil (Russia, Iran, North-Korea).
Thanks for joining my side. As you can see this wasn’t the post which led to the ban.
Uhm, what is wrong about chaining prisoners? I mean, that is exactly what you do when you arrest someone suspected to be violent.
Well, thanks for driving the discussion offtopic because we all knew who is the real terrorist as accepted by 172 nations. Reported.
Please do so. I must say that my activity on Lemmy has already dropped dramatically but I still open it once a month or so and read all messages in the communities I moderate.
I can beat that. “Atomic Weight 500” is a book of nuclear power written in 1925 by a guy born 1870 about nuclear power - and nuclear war. Though his nuclear war was “different”. Even Hans Dominik didn’t expect Chain Reactions being so quick as they really were. But the basic idea of creating a critical mass to generate uncontrollable amounts of energy was implemented perfectly.
I would be good if at least not every single lead protagonist was either an asshole, an idiot or an obvious traitor.
It is not so much about the year the story plays at but also about shying away from some stories nowadays.
A story where humans are Cool Bastards and the Aliens just Plain Evil?
Can’t have that. It wouldn’t be social critic enough.
Humans being smart and solving problems without crying and discussing their feelings in face of impending doom?
Naaah… would alienate the audience.
c/HFY and r/HFY show how to do it different… (shameless self propaganda, noteworthy The Typo which saved humanity, Day of the Fat Man, Deterrence)
PopOS is a sure way of getting into ten times more problems than Ubuntu.
Seriously, I know them all. Started with NetBSD in 1991, used pretty much everything.
If your system isn’t super weird then Ubuntu is the most relaxed experience you will ever have as a newby.
(And yes, I am not using Ubuntu currently. But then, I hat 35 years of POSIX/Unix/Linux experience)
I am an old timer. I started with BSD before there was even a Linux. NetBSD on an Amiga 3000 before the AT&T law suite against NetBSD, then heared about Linux which was twice as clean as NetBSD and without legal issues - Later NetBSD removed all legal issues nonetheless.
First Linux was a Watch-Tower Distribution, basically a big RAM-Disk with a rudimentary Linux system which you copied to HD. No package manager, nothing. tar, make was the way to do installations. Shortly after Slackware and SuSE which basically was the same back then. Then a lot of SuSE then Debian, then Ubuntu. Don’t care much about the distribution nowadays as long as it is DEB-based.
But now something to scare all of you: Today my most used POSIX environment is… Cygwin. Well, I got a Windows-Notebook for development and a VM is really clunky in comparison to a fully integrated POSIX-layer like Cygwin. For developing Stuff it actually matters very little if you use BSD, Linux, Cygwin or even Solaris.
In my whole life I never bought digital audio or video content on vinyl, VHS, CD, DVD, Blueray. Never ever. It sounds as weird to me like paying for air to breath.
But one day I visited a live concert of a small band which I loved as a teenager. After the show I met with their drummer, gave him €200 cash and said “You know, when I was young you were cool about kids copying your music without paying. You told us if we like you music we can enjoy it. And if we can afford it, we can pay you. Back then I couldn’t. Today I can.”
And so I paid them five times as much as I saved back then by copying their music.
#You are perfectly right.
All major distributions offer all major Environments. I currently use either Debian or Ubuntu and usually install by booting the Netinstall.iso right from the official Servers which installs just the base system without any GUI at all. Then I use tasksel to select the environment. Ok, not every Environment is part of Tasksel but often it is just adding another Repository and running another apt install operation.
And yes, on my experimental computer I often install a dozen environments just because I can. Selectable at Login-Screen.
But now somethings VERY important from someone with 35 years of POSIX experience:
If you are a newby FOR GODS SAKE USE UBUNTU.
And if you are a pro… Ubuntu still is a very good option. Only if your have VERY GOOD REASONS which you COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND, only then use something else. Which is Debian for me.
