You sound like the alpha male people. We’re not wolves. We are capable of complex conversation, and we can behave properly out of respect for others and not out of fear.

Maybe children would be less receptive to tate-like figures if it didn’t seem like the whole world wanted them dead.

Beating children into submission might be convenient for you, but its almost certainly not the correct way to handle the situation.

Some of you need more empathy. These are children whose insecurities are being exploited for profit. Be mad at their parents, and be mad at figures like Andrew Tate. But these are children and they deserve more grace than that.

My experience with Linux gaming has varied pretty wildly. My old r9 290x could hardly run anything on linux. And if it did, it would run horribly compared to on windows.

Recently I upgraded to an rx 7600, and nearly everything works out of the box or with minor tweaks. And it performs similarly to windows, even better on occasion.

Sure, but I wouldn’t recommend using a system that gets no security updates. Its more than worth upgrading or switching to linux to avoid that.

It still likely would have been faster for him to write anything new in a new language. And, there wouldn’t have been anything stopping him from using existing assembly code in conjunction with another language.

I would say his motivation was pretty crazy. One person making a well designed and polished video game is a pretty incredible feat regardless of the language.

When I was a kid I thought the “for which it stands” in the national anthem was in reference to a country called “witchistan”, which was presumably full of witches.

I’ve never met anyone like that in person, but some people genuinely believe it.

I’m just hoping we can sort things out before it gets as bad as Nazi Germany was. Maybe I’m being overly optimistic, but having a defeatist attitude certainly won’t help our chances.

Honestly we were screwed long before now, but yes. Its going to be a slow decline into fascism until we collectively wise up. I do think there’s a real possibility of that happening, but its going to take a lot of work.

How can people figure out email, but lemmy is just too complicated?

Gross to me that multiple comments here are ignoring this reality. Crimes committed by men against women in situations like that are so common that women aren’t protecting themselves unless they consider every unfamiliar man a potential threat.

Obviously women can also commit crimes against men, but its so much less common that I don’t have to take precautions to protect myself against them.

As a man it kind of sucks when you are assumed to be dangerous even when you aren’t, but you need to get over it. Its not worth it for women to compromise their safety, and assume you to not be a threat just to make you feel better.

You mean women are also capable of committing crimes? I’m gonna need some more sources for an outlandish take like that.

I’ve seen boomers complain about a lot of things, but young people’s propensity for addiction is not one of them.

No, because Facebook is not explicitly designed for the sole purpose of illegal transactions. Very clear difference.

I think its slightly dishonest to frame this as him simply “creating a website”. He created a marketplace to sell drugs on, I just don’t understand the sympathy. I feel bad for low level drug dealers in jail, this guy not so much.

I would agree it could’ve been handled differently, same with every other aspect of the war on drugs. But celebrating this guy is a step too far for me.

Why are people in support of this guy?

Guys this is a Buddhist symbol. I’m simply supporting America’s religious diversity, you bigots.

Banjo slander should not be tolerated

I still don’t see how any of this takes away from my point. Are you just saying that other countries have a vested interest in the continued existence of Ukraine as we know it? Because I know that, that’s why they started funding the war in the first place.

Let’s say that when Trump takes office he negotiates new terms with Putin. Zelensky will agree to those terms because he knows things will only be worse for his country if he continues fighting without US support.

Are you just trying to say that the us or other countries would never threaten to pull support because it would be foolish? If so, then you don’t know how common fools are. What is it you think Trump means when he says he will end the war immediately after taking power?
