“Died” or “made dead”?

hitwright ,

He was tortured long time. Little food, humiliation. In time he died afaik.

AutistoMephisto , to world in Nato chief says Donald Trump comments 'undermine all of our security'
@AutistoMephisto@lemmy.world avatar

That’s nice of him to say. What’s he going to do about it? So sick of all these spineless, yellow-bellied wimps saying how bad Trump is, and doing precisely fuck all. GROW A FUCKING BACKBONE, ALREADY, YOU COWARDS!

voltaa , (edited )

That’s nice of you to say. What do you suggest he does about it? I’m so sick of these spineless, yellow-bellied Internet commenters saying that something should be done about it and suggesting precisely fuck all. OFFER A SOLUTION, ALREADY, YOU COWARDS!

Edit: Mocking tone aside, I’m serious, what can Jens realistically do? Kick the USA out of NATO? That’s Trump’s goal anyways. The issues with Trump are an internal American issue that can’t be fixed by Norwegian politicians unfortunately.

Also I just don’t see an American getting in trouble over what can be considered a freedom of speech issue. It could also set a dangerous precedent that fascists could use to prosecute their political opponents.

FarceOfWill ,

What do you expect NATO to do? A drone strike??

omgitsaheadcrab , to world in Moment vibrating phones alerted UN to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine

I might have to watch this documentary, looks good. Russian embassador got left out to dry lol

TrickDacy , (edited )

So things would’ve somehow been better if the ambassador knew ahead of time?

Edit: not sure if you deleted your comment or what but you still won today’s wrongest take so far.

Chainweasel , to worldnews in Pope Francis says sexual pleasure is 'a gift from God'

I wonder if the choir boys feel the same way

Cosmicomical , (edited ) to aboringdystopia in Renting: Can bidding wars be stopped?

You should just immediately dismiss a property when they tell you there are other offers. If enough people do this, in the long term it will make the landlords reconsider. Easier said than done, i know

stifle867 , to technology in BBC: The woman who successfully sued the website that matched her with a paedophile explains how she forced the site to close down. 'Alice', or A.M. as she was known in court says she feels "vindic...

I really don’t understand how you can “force” anyone to do anything over Omegle but I guess that’s neither here nor there. The more important point is that it would have been better to take the opportunity to catch more pedos doing the same thing on this site. They’re still out there just moved to different platforms now. It’s not really the win she thinks it is. There’s HIGHLY questionable/NSFL stuff even on TikTok and Google Photos.

abracaDavid , to world in Sudan conflict: ‘Our lives have become a piece of hell’

Yeah well, they’re not white and not making us money so our government doesn’t care.

EinfachUnersetzlich ,

Which government?

dumdum666 ,

The world government of course - don’t you read the news? eyeroll

Aux ,

It’s a civil war, who should care and how? It’s Sudan’s internal problem and unless they wish to get occupied and colonised, they should deal with it themselves.

sadreality , to worldnews in Italy to seize $835M from Airbnb in tax evasion inquiry

not enough!

AirBnB and tourism in general is cancer.

iAmTheTot ,
@iAmTheTot@kbin.social avatar

What the hell do you have against tourism?

sadreality ,

people crying over climate change going around in jets...

Also, tourism can gut a city, prime examples would be prague and venice.

Pips ,

Or it can boost its economy and transform neighborhoods, like in Medellin.

SoylentBlake , (edited )

As well as teach tolerance for other cultures, different perspectives and the humanities in general.

Cancelling tourism across the board will 100% end up with everyone going to war with each other within a single lifetime, by means of the power hungry/money hungry/attention hungry “othering” everything not within eyeshot.

We’re essentially talking about de-democratizing cultures and returning power to the hands of the few who get to translate the outside world for us. Idk about you, but I’m not interested in living under INGSOC or a return to cardinals gate-keeping wisdom, and substituting their own, behind the proverbial Latin.

We need to curb greenhouse gases, yes, but we need that by normalizing green tech, not dropping another quarantine curtain on everyone. We need MORE tourism, like it or not. Maybe a state sanctioned, and funded, 2 years before uni for teens to have their own modern ‘walkabouts’ and get some exposure. We need everyone to gain some culture, after all, the more traveled we are, the less dogmatic and less inclined towards violence we tend to become. Which makes governing a population have to focus more on coercion and policy/dialectics and perhaps there’s the rub. It’s easier to start programming the young (kindergarten) with nationalism than sway opinions with rationality. Maybe that’s where the burnt of modern problems stem from.

vodkasolution ,

Tourism?!? Wtf??

@massive_bereavement@kbin.social avatar

Settle down everyone, I think the point here is tourism massification and how it transform alive cities into theme parks.

baldingpudenda , to news in Donald Trump fraud trial live updates: Former president takes the stand - BBC News

They just went to lunch. He barely acknowledged the press. Just kept on walking.

sculd , to technology in 'Crypto King' Sam Bankman-Fried guilty of FTX fraud

Good riddance

Spacebar , to world in Bobi, the world's oldest dog ever, dies aged 31
@Spacebar@lemmy.world avatar

Have you ever seen an elderly dog? They have the same characteristics as an elderly person. Gray hair, lack muscle tone, eyes that just look old… that dog is not 31.

wolfpack86 ,

Yeah, it’s gotta be fucking incredible living life at 108.

/s

wolfpack86 ,

Didn’t say it was or that I wanted to.

jimbolauski ,

Quality of life from 100 - 108 is much better than quality of life from 50 - 58 at 500lbs

bernieecclestoned OP ,

Bobi’s grand old age was validated by the Portuguese government’s pet database, which is managed by the National Union of Veterinarians.

bottle ,

Ah, the wonderful prevailing argument sweeping the internet the last few years: “that looks like something else, so it must be that. Let’s disregard sources and science. Everything must be what it looks like.”

verysoft ,

Critical thinking! No! It doesn't look 'old' so it can't be!

Pipoca ,

People lie about their age all the time. There’s been many elderly people with badly documented births who fudged the numbers and added a decade or five to their age.

Unless there’s good documentation, be skeptical of extreme longevity claims.

bottle ,

Did you even read the article? There is good documentation. Man you keyboard ninjas need to spend less time in the dojo and more time in the library.

How susceptible to bribes do you reckon the Portuguese National Union of Veterinarians could be?

wedeworps ,

Wow

bottle ,

Moronic comment made by a moron. Glad to see the bottom of the barrel is still trying. Failing, but trying. Good effort mate.

scottywh ,

Fuck you, you dumbass bitch motherfucker.

I was simply trying to engage in a civil conversation and you had to be a piece of shit.

Blocked.

bottle ,

lol. The language you chose proves you’re a moron. I suspect that you know you’re actually a moron. That’s why my comment cut so deep. You can’t buy brain cells but you can read more. There’s still a chance for you little dunce :)

Looking forward to see how this will improve the quality of Microsoft-Activision-Blizzard-EA-Ubisoft’s games and those of the competito- oh, never mind. None left.

echodot , to worldnews in British Museum asks public and experts to help recover stolen artefacts

Yes he has all the jokes about this being ironic.

Except unless the thief returns the items to the original owners then it’s not some vigilante justice, it’s just theft.

Anyway you can hardly say some Roman jewellery doesn’t belong in the UK. It was probably dropped in England.
