Beyond that, liberals just can't face these kind of things. They basically want to ignore the worst aspects of this system and pretend that they're not a big deal or the cruelty hasn't always been the point.

But "the cruelty is the point" is a hard line of US thought and has been since I was a child.

I grew up when "pre-existing conditions" were still a thing. The cruelty has always been the point.

More folks need to wake up and stop seeing this an aberration and start seeing the last 80 years as the aberration.

We're simply returning to America's original "fuck you, got mine" standard.

Don't sleep (yuk yuk yuk) on this. Get blood tests. Mine was cancer.

If you also have night sweats and are constantly tired?

Get checked now. Don't wait.

Another common symptom is swollen or "hot" lymph nodes. (back of neck, under armpits, etc)

Welp, their inability to make a decision almost ensures they will follow the same technocratic/autocratic path as the US.

Who'd have thought the thing to kill democracy would be Admin rights being tantalizing to techbros as a stand in for authoritarianism.

There's just no words for this level of evil.

The book burning and internet crackdown will surely start soon. Kiss the first amendment goodbye.

They're trying to kill people. It's premeditated. It's social murder on a grand scale to send a message. This is Trumps and the Evangelicals revenge tour on American culture for rejecting them.

Trump views illness as a weakness, but he's also willing to wield disease as a weapon to make people weaker, as seen during COVID when he let it fly because he assumed it would ravage blue cities.

I missed this somehow a year ago. Now with Trump actually in power again it's more accurate than it would have been if I had replied to this a year ago:

History repeats itself, first as tragedy, then as farce

Hey they did support it until they were getting difficult legal contacts because some users were abusing it, and getting turned away by different hosting providers.

They shut it down to protect the rest of us who use it without abusing it.

https://mullvad.net/en/blog/removing-the-support-for-forwarded-ports

Unfortunately port forwarding also allows avenues for abuse, which in some cases can result in a far worse experience for the majority of our users. Regrettably individuals have frequently used this feature to host undesirable content and malicious services from ports that are forwarded from our VPN servers. This has led to law enforcement contacting us, our IPs getting blacklisted, and hosting providers cancelling us.

The result is that it affects the majority of our users negatively, because they cannot use our service without having services being blocked.

I know the port forwarding thing can be a deal-breaker for some people, but it's not Mullvad's fault that they needed to remove this to be able to continue providing quality services for the rest of their customer base.

This is sadly one of those "this is why we can't have nice things" type deals because when enough people abuse it, it becomes a problem. I have no ill will towards Mullvad for taking it away when it became financially and legally foolish to continue doing so.

I hope mp4 files like this work the way I hope they do, and that this loops properly

The video does work, but it does not loop.

Unfortunately, if you want to keep the original filetype, you'll have to host it somewhere off of Lemmy. Lemmy does this weird thing where it automatically reformats your uploads to webp or webm (which is weird considering how Marxist those guys are that they go with the bullshit ass Google option instead of something like JPEG-XL, but that's beside the point). If you want to keep the integrity of the original file format, you must host on a different site and hotlink it here.

https://pictrs.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/bb3e0224-5c8a-4ed1-9a5d-4af3444f8f62.webm

That's a link to your video, notice the filetype has been changed from mp4 to webm?

An mp4 should work the way you planned, but it would have to be hotlinked instead of directly uploaded to Lemmy. Further, while it will show up and work on the desktop, it may or may not work on various Lemmy apps, depending on what they've chosen to support.

Further, they're hosted in Germany, so they must still follow German law and court requests.

 
 

I have cancer. I'm open about it. This medicaid funding shit could literally kill me.

I am so sick of people suggesting I should "pull a Luigi" or "go out like a hero" because they still have things to lose so they don't want to stand up and lose them. So because I'm gonna die, I should say fuck it and risk it all for a bunch of jerks who wouldn't and haven't done the same for me?

Do you have any idea how disrespectful that is to people who are already suffering? When nobody is standing up to sacrifice themselves to save the weak, broken, sick, and disabled? Why's it our job to save the able bodied? Why can't these people see that even though they think their heart is in the right place, they're still basically telling us "your life sucks anyway and will end soon, you should throw it away for the rest of us who never did anything for you" or more simply "kys."

I'm officially tired of this inconsiderate and frankly ableist bullshit.

Honestly, I wish some mods or admins would make some rules about it since it's ableist.

i found this vhs called "Punch Punch Forever" (パンチパンチフォーエバー) in my dads basement in a box labelled "DO NOT OPEN" but he only wrote that on the box because there was a big scary rat in there and the rat bit me when i went to grab the tape and now i'm blind in my left eye.

finally got around to digitizing and uploading it though! enjoy! this one is labelled as "episode 1 of 62,737"


Gogo Matsumoto, an 11-year old aloof martial arts prodigy, along with her half-demon older sister; Nono, her mama; Mama, and her cool pet frog; Coolfrog, embark to compete in a martial arts tournament that pits humans against a near-infinite barrage of demons from another realm called the Akumugai. If a human can come out triumphant, they will be granted a wish from the Akumugai's warlord, Emperor Koro. Can Gogo overcome this impossibe challenge? If so, will she wish for a big, like REALLY big hambrguger? I hope so!

 
 

Out of them was produced a secret handbook developed on how to break down prisoners. The key was using shock to reduce adults to a childlike state.
