Appearing in various places around the globe, treaties are not only concluded between polities who share a similar idea of sovereignty or territorial rights, which does not disqualify them as instruments of #diplomacy The issue about intercultural treaties leads to the question of whether these agreements had an equal or unequal character. Clearly, different forms of unequal treaties existed from the seventeenth century onwards – colonial treaties and the unequal imperialist treaties implemented with Asian empires such as China, Japan or the Ottomans. In Canada, for example, the British crown concluded dozens of treaties with the indigenous populations with regard to settlements and land rights. Indigenous agency within these processes has often been overlooked in the study of these treaty negotiations. (9/10)
Tremml-Werner demands more exchange between studies of European diplomatic history and that of other world regions and academic traditions to integrate native and indigenous sources and voices more balanced and to understand the rise of diplomacy as a result of global processes. (10/10)
like... just not having to bring up, much less explain, cptsd because the other person can talk about their own self-work... at this stage in my life, meeting new people again, i really appreciate that the @actuallyautistic and ND community writ large is figuring out our shit and healing.
@lemmyshitpost went on Reddit 🤢 for a second because they have a better ham radio community, god is that place fucked. Let’s start the fun again of trying to destroy it. #reddit#fuckreddit
Can someone explain to me why there are entire communities on Lemmy about Reddit? I used to use Reddit too, I enjoyed it, then I left after the API changes. Now I use Lemmy. It doesn’t have any emotional hold on me, it was just a tool that I used. Stop bitching and move on with your life. It’s just sad at this point. If you really didn’t care for Reddit any more then there’d be no need to keep saying loudly how bad it is and how you don’t care or use it.
It certainly wasn't a well-made novel, too much bleeding from the wounds, but none the worse for that. It has an intensity and sharpness, and sometimes it's better not to blunt the edges of a story with artifice.
i'm astounded by how far #gaming on #linux has come since the last time i seriously used linux, which was probably ... 2010?
not only are older games and several newer games now natively packaged for linux, #steam play + #proton works for so much that dual-booting #windows is so far from my mind.
i could see #windows still being necessary for brand-new 'triple-a' stuff, unfortunately; but let's hope that's not the case for much longer.
@beanjbunny I haven't been playing Palworld because guns and more colonialism were not the things I've felt Pokémon has been missing. But it sounds like there's something AI-related, too—can you shed more light on that?
> NSA officials told Wyden that not only is the intelligence agency purchasing data on Americans located in the US but that it also bought Americans' Internet metadata.
I’m with ya on that. I could rant on and on about privacy, but this ain’t the place for that, I guess. The gov’t promised if we let ISPs and telcos turn over our data they could catch all the terrorists, and now 20 years later they can’t even catch kids making prank phone calls (SWATting) or telemarketers.
I guess it’s true, people get the leadership they deserve.
No, their job is to spy on NON DOMESTIC citizens. A court ruled that what they did under Snowden was illegal as fuck and they pinky swore not to do it anymore. Them spying on American citizens that don’t communicate with foreigners is supposed to be illegal. You said it so confidently, but you are mistaken.
Good intention, to let us know about the strategy. But i would guess everybody knows the strategy since most of us are working in IT. Hence the downvotes.
But tbh. everyone should hear about it. No backup? No sympathy. (Kein Backup? Kein Mitleid)
My mom tries to #bluetooth pair her smart watch and her phone. But every time she enters the correct validation code in her phone, the watch denies the #pairing.
her watch is a Suunto Peak 9 Pro
Smart phone is some Shift Phone 5 on Android <edit>8</edit>

I encountered a similar problem with smart jewels. The app would only connect the device to BT after validation from a database on the manufacturers website. Since it was closed down connection has become impossible and our stock of jewels is scrap.
For a long time I've been bothered by problems with the Paradise Lost #wikipedia article. Periodically I go try to improve one section or another, but I feel like it needs a group effort. Do I know any Miltonists or #Milton sympathizers interested in a mini editathon?? or Milton haters if you've got the receipts!
(#ParadiseLost? is that a hashtag anyone would use??)
I don't think I've seen this bit of game design anywhere else, but in Horizon Zero Dawn, the lowest difficulties actually make enemies drop more parts and also include a feature where they'll drop parts that normally can only be torn off, letting you get those parts if that particular mechanic is tricky for you
