“Part of a complete breakfast!”

I mean, if you eat a complete breakfast, wouldn’t anything you drank/ate during that be considered part of the complete breakfast? Healthy people hate that one trick.

In rare cases charisma pulls you out, but that’s much harder to achieve.

Spoken like a person with no charisma.

if they draft it’s because cannon fodder is needed.

That’s a big if, as you noted US hasn’t drafted in forever. But even if they did draft, the US hasn’t used “cannon fodder” tactics for several decades. Their technology is so advanced (and military budget/spending so high) they don’t need to in order to win. Trench warfare ain’t really a thing anymore.

At least you’ll be alive instead of cannon fodder

I don’t think the military is dying at a noticeable rate, especially as “cannon fodder.” A quick Google says deaths by hostile action hasn’t broken the triple digits annually over the last decade. I also didn’t really look at the other deaths, so feel free to dive into that side.

It’s doomed to become a nazi bar…you can just go to an instance with admins you trust better or make your own instance

Ok, how is that different than Nostr? Don’t like your Lemmy instance admins rolling against your Nazi views? Join a different instance. Nazi sympathetic instance gets defederated by everyone else? Make your own instance.

But generally I’m not a fan of the stuff I’ve heard and read about the Nostr protocol so far.

Can you elaborate?

That’s the joke.

I’m hoping for a Pixel Tablet 2 with this (Pixel Tablet doesn’t have it, but the Pixel 8 does for some reason) and MTE security capability, and I’ll transition to that with GrapheneOS over a laptop.

I haven’t tested it personally, but I think GrapheneOS (easily the best Android OS for Pixels, in my opinion) has had it for Pixel 8s since the end of October 2023. Here’s a quick guide I saw: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/9775-pixel-8-desktop-mode-guide-and-personal-experience

and Signal were Google proprietary.

I’m pretty sure Signal is not Google proprietary, and the person you replied to didn’t say it was.

Yeah billy should be build IUDs not 3d printed guns

I see the /s but…The Ukraine war videos don’t show how to build IEDs, though. And even if they did, who would the parents sue? Ukraine, a nation at war? As opposed to 3D printed guns show you how to make them, and you could try to sue the gun company who it belongs to. And YouTube in both cases.

we didn’t do a good job transitioning from religious to secular values in that way.

A lot of religions were founded on and/or expanded by violence (Pilgrims to America, Knights Templar, Spanish Inquisition, etc), so I don’t remotely think “religious to secular” is the reason.

To be fair, the Aiel didn’t initially grow up there (and too short for evolution, in my non-scientific brain), but rather migrated there to use it as “a shaping stone to make them, a testing ground to prove their worth, and a punishment for their sin.” And it would be too easy on those three reasons if they were perfectly (or mostly) acclimated and suited for the desert genetically.

A cool quote…but fictional and not applicable in the real world. Has “both sides are the same so I’m not gonna vote” energy, which let’s the greater evil win. Kudos for maintaining neutrality and helping screw everyone over.

When a power imbalance that vast is concerned consent doesn’t exist.

At the time, sure. However, over a decade after the fact:

Maintaining that her affair with Clinton was one between two consenting adults…

So if the power imbalance was why she consented, you’d think she’d set the record straight and say she was pressured or forced into it despite saying yes at the time. But she didn’t. Ergo, she consented and your argument is invalid.

Other than Google pay…

Google Pay’s Tap to Pay does not work on GrapheneOS.

Just did a super quick glance, but are you really considering QKSMS maintained?

Startpage, which is still recommended over at privacyguides.org

For now. There is an open pull request to remove it due to Startpage fingerprinting users (I didn’t delve into it to see if it’s true, but that was the reason given). And just because it’s been suggested doesn’t mean it will be removed, so time will till.

So is bullshitting. More so, only human minds can bullshit.

And a bull’s anus.

This chud uploaded potentially sensitive information to a public service.

A bill draft, which eventually/maybe gets signed and is public by its very nature is sensitive?

People really need education on how to intelligently use these services.

Agreed on principle, but I don’t see how what he did was wrong…other than calling ChatGPT a subject matter expert.

Is there a Lemmy community like R4R? If there is, I can’t find one.

Just did a search, and there are 3 with none active.
