Oh yea, the weird origins of modern western vegetarianism, deep rooted in the american cults (mormonism, adventism, christian science and one other I think?)

Yes, neoliberal regimes at least have conducted genocides, although it'd point it out as authoritarian regimes.

No, not really - it's mostly about telling the tankies that they are the same as their most hated enemy.

And the only difference between .ml and .world would be denial of genocide, at least as I've seen no denial of native genocides in Canada, US, scandinavia, or similar - neither any denial of the ongoing genocide in palestine. Ofcourse that could just be less noticed and talked about, but they don't ban you for saying that the US is doing genocide

Probably true? https://deathpenaltyinfo.org/executions/botched-executions Here it does say that 0 cases of firing squad has had a botched case tbh, but it is quite low numbers - so it isn't a good reference for statistics

I must admit. This might be peak noncredible

HDR is pretty much impossible in X11; especially since there are 0 plans for it, and no plans to do anything than bare minimum updates

Wayland is pretty darn great nowadays, hell I'm running KDE and got HDR on my desktop; haven't had any odd goings on since 2023 (though nvidia is still meh)

Medical professionals usually frown upon anything with doing harm. With the whole "do-no-harm" oath usually taken. This leads to "lethal injections" made by non-medical individuals, where they struggle to buy ingredients (also cus nobody wants to sell killing drugs) - and injected by non-professionals.

This leads to injections being quite often hour long processes of extremely painful deaths. Not uncommonly it's unsucessfully.

Being shot is honestly, far more humane. (Though any death penalty is unjust, especially considering how many are found innocent after their death.)

Because tankies are just facists in red~

Tankies and facists do genocide, and two thinga can be bad at the same time! Imagine that!

Omg, my cat also yells at me for staying up too late, though she does accept fake bathroom time. I think she knows it's fake, but she still accepts it

yea, preserving deviantart is not a focus like anywhere as far as I know, and hopefully the artist themselves do, but it's vague. It does match with how historically art has usually been a big job to try and preserve once the artist is dead.

For preserving music (since you mention bandcamp) I recommend supporting your local library; an here's a list of some US music libraries. https://www.american-music.org/page/Libraries

Most nations do have some type of music archive as well, and it's not like software which faces legal issues for historical preservation.

According to findings announced by the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) and published in The Lancet journal, there were an estimated 64,260 “traumatic injury deaths” in Gaza between October 7, 2023 and June 30, 2024. The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza put the figure at 37,877 at the time.

This means the ministry has underreported the death toll due to violence by approximately 41%, the researchers found. As of October, the number of Gazans killed by violence was thought to exceed 70,000, the study said, based on the estimated underreporting rate.

The total death toll attributable to Israel’s military campaign is likely to be higher still, it said, as its analysis doesn’t account for deaths caused by disruption to health care, insufficient food, clean water and sanitation, and disease outbreaks.

I've found that a good way to check for actual tolerance in a group is how they treat their furries.

Also, the furries make the internet work. plz. I need the furry hacking power in the world.

Netanyahu mulls plan to empty northern Gaza of civilians and cut off aid to those left inside

The Generals’ Plan was presented to the parliament last month by a group of retired generals and high-ranking officers, according to publicly available minutes. Since then, officials from the prime minister’s office called seeking more details, according to its chief architect, Giora Eiland, a former head of the National Security Council.

Israeli media reported that Netanyahu told a closed parliamentary defense committee session that he was considering the plan.

Eiland said the only way to stop Hamas and bring an end to the yearlong war is to prevent its access to aid.

“They will either have to surrender or to starve,” Eiland said. “It doesn’t necessarily mean that we’re going to kill every person,” he said. “It will not be necessary. People will not be able to live there (the north). The water will dry up.”

...

When asked if the evacuation orders in northern Gaza marked the first stages of the “Generals’ Plan,” Israeli military spokesperson Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani said no.

“We have not received a plan like that,” he added.

But one official with knowledge of the matter said parts of the plan are already being implemented, without specifying which parts. A second official, who is Israeli, said Netanyahu “had read and studied” the plan, “like many plans that have reached him throughout the war,” but didn’t say whether any of it had been adopted. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity, because the plan isn’t supposed to be discussed publicly.

On Sunday, Israel launched an offensive against Hamas fighters in the Jabaliya refugee camp north of the city. No trucks of food, water or medicine have entered the north since Sept. 30, according to the U.N. and the website of the Israeli military agency overseeing humanitarian aid crossings.
