Grilled pineapple is preety good on any meat.
All these US-centric answers. Learn Mandarin. The world will continue on after the US empire ends.
Rutte works for the Americans literally. NATO is a US alliance. He's European but can't contradict his masters.
Public Money, Public Code. All governments should only be using FOSS software.
Surprised this isn't mentioned more because it's one of the only true alternatives for all the google feature-set.
Zelensky knows he's out next year so he'll promise anything now.
I am a time traveller and I was trying to throw you off my trail but I seem to have failed.
Trainspotting. I do feel like it kept me away from drugs though.
Trump counterbalance keeping it in check but my gut is saying once tariffs come in February there's going to be a market correction. Pure speculation on my part.
Wonder how Article 5 works here..
You're describing the internet though. If two people meet in a public space and conspire to commit a crime, the public space isn't fined. In the same way that if two people on Lemmy meet and then conspire to commit a crime, the space shouldn't be fined. If OTOH the platform owner was made aware and didn't take action, then yes that would be aiding a crime.
I think it il depend on the military industrial complex in the USA and whether they decide to off Trump or not. If Trump goes isolationist then they'll probably merc him. If he invades Panama and starts a hot war with Iran then there probably won't be a world war (ironically). If China invades Taiwan and the US blinks then there won't be a world war. If the US attacks China for taking over Taiwan then we'll be in a world war.
You're using an ad hominem fallacy by saying the messenger is the problem and not refuting the evidence itself.
The USA is banning tiktok because it can't control the platforms messaging in case misinformation is being spread in the USA. Why is it that China can't also control the spread of this misinformation? Feels like you might be a chauvanist 🤷♂️
There's a lot of evidence out there from American journalists that the Chinese are in fact, not forcing sterilization on the Uighur population or putting them in concentration camps. https://medium.com/@braisedporkblog/debunking-the-uyghur-genocide-a-resource-list-a31dd0ea3d87
That would be hell for the dying person to die every day and hell for the caretaker of that person to either kill them every morning or leave them to suffer.
Interesting but I'm skeptical that they would develop this if they could simply convert a NG turbine and it would only be 2x less efficient.
The main reason global markets aren't absorbing the demand is sanction on chinese produced goods. But anyhow it will be interesting to see how the renewable energy boom picks up steam. Jupiter 1 hydrogen gas generator engine is a pretty huge milestone.
The best way I can describe it is when you have an oven on clean mode, that you start smelling that metallic kind of smell.
The watchmen came and put new filters on the HVAC unit, but I still get a wiff of it for the first 20-30 seconds of the unit starting up, and then it doesn't smell anymore. I'm wondering if whatever that smell is, is unhealthy, and what it could be?
Would getting a higher MERV filter help or is it likely something wrong with the unit?
But Ukraine’s president fears that some of his country’s Western backers are losing faith
"There is no way of predicting how the millions of Ukrainian refugees in European countries would react to their country being abandoned. Ukrainians have generally “behaved well” and are “very grateful” to those who sheltered them. They will not forget that generosity. But it would not be a “good story” for Europe if it were to “drive these people into a corner”."
US president stumbles over his words during Asia trip and press secretary halts him mid-sentence
Lol someone please defend this war criminal.
Have the US and NATO managed to box themselves in with the Ukraine war?
Good analysis of what options (or lack of) the west has with their commitment to killing Ukranians.
I have this issue often. I know if I scratch, it will wake me up and take longer to sleep because of my body movement. If I don't scratch, my mind only focuses on the itch. Sometimes I'll wait 5 minutes for the scratch to go away and then I just cave and start scratching any minor itch I have on my body. Has anyone just not moved and let the itch subside or does everyone scratch?
I recently read a funny comment and wanted to give it the 😂 reaction like I would on a Telegram post, but upvoted instead. Reddit had upvoting downvoting but wondering if Lemmy, being an open source innovative software, should evolve past the upvote downvote and allow for a wide range of emoji reactions to a post.
I want to thank one of my readers, Paul S., for flagging this remarkable and hilarious Newsweek article, written by Bill Arkin, that is a classic example of the CIA...
Interesting if the CIA are prepping for an excuse to exonerate themselves from any messups in strategy they have the Ukranians; blame the people who followed our instructions for not following them well enough.

Interesting take if the CIA are laying the groundwork to exonerate themselves from a possible impending failure.
This movie came out in 1998 - there's a very famous scene where they're planning a heist at the Petronas towers. I've visited Malaysia and I still think about that movie.
Do people in Malaysia have common knowledge about that film at all, or is it like a meh reference.
For context, there's a film called Canadian Bacon that most Canadians over a certain age are aware of.
Discover the power of AFFiNE, the ultimate alternative to Notion, Miro, and Monday. This article introduces the latest AFFiNE 0.7.0 Preview, unveiling an upcoming feature: AFFiNE Cloud.
I'm excited about this MPL licensed tool and wanted to share; it's aiming to be a replacement to Notion, but self-hosted. It's not as feature rich (still in Beta) but it's a modern KMS/Collaboration tool that's looks to be on par with other proprietary options in the market. They seem to have some sort of capital backing because they have a team working on development.
My concern is how the pricing model will work and what features they will lock. They say that it will be free to self-host, but I feel like they will lock some features (most definitely their cloud service.) But if they only lock cloud hosting but allow self-hosting it will be pretty amazing for the self-hosting community.
Do you track your expenses monthly? Annually? Do you have an app or do you use an excel spreadsheet? Any suggested tools?
I use a spreadsheet and track monthly.
Should the EU backslide on Turkish entry, Erdogan could well renege on his commitment to support Swedish accession to NATO.
There was a post from a mass media site the other day saying Turkey was approving Sweden to join NATO. This turned out to be a bit of wishful thinking.
Hello everybody! I meant to post this weeks ago, but some significant life events got in the way () and as it turns out I've completely forgotten how much of...
It will be interesting to see more traditional BB forum software interconnect with other networks. All the gaming forums that will be able to cross post...
Just finished it. I like this show the comedy is pretty amazing and also it gets pretty emotional too without too much backstory. I did like the more backstory of the demons in seasons 2 and 3. I thought the humanizing of them gave an interesting perspective.
Looking forward to season 5, does anyone know the release date?
I'm just curious for the new or existing people? Lemmy.ml has taken a hard turn to the right since the reddit exodus. There's been a lot of pro-imperialist propaganda being posted on world news, and a lot less diversity of opinion. It feels more neoliberal and neo-con to me.
Does anyone want to share what their political leanings are?
I'll start; I'm anti-imperialist pro-state regulated capitalism. I believe we should have usage based taxes (toll roads, carbon tax) and luxury taxes, and I disagree with wealth taxes for people with less than $250 million. The state should spend more money on consumer protection in all industries (environment, health, finance, etc.) I believe in multipolarity vs. US hegemony.
I see like reddit this community is mostly western mainstream media news sources.
Unlike reddit this site doesn't have to ban alternative news sources or alternative opinions. Most people get their news from search engines that feature western mainstream media news sources.
I would like to help create a sticky thread that lists out all the available English media news sources and categorize them based on their geography and political ideology. I think this would help people discover new sources of news, while keeping in mind the underlying intent of how news is being reported.
