Russia says U.S. is responsible for deadly Ukrainian attack on Crimea (www.reuters.com)

MOSCOW, June 23 (Reuters) - Russia said on Sunday that the United States was responsible for a Ukrainian attack on the Russian-annexed Crimean peninsula with five U.S.-supplied missiles that killed at least five people including three children and injured 124 more....

Weslee ,

I wouldn’t be surprised if Russian forces went out to the beach after the attack and bombed it themselves, just so they could get this story

Weslee ,

I believe they are referring to Lemmy.ml

Weslee ,

Well he can, he just can’t get away with it like the rest of them

Weslee ,

Freetube has a sponsor skip feature, skips sponsored sections of videos automatically, so it looks like this has already been solved

Weslee ,

Also the fact they didn’t tell anyone until people started asking questions… This isn’t a “good faith, temporary” action. It’s a “let’s hope no one notices us doing bad shit” action.

Weslee ,

Imo yes it would, because then it wouldn’t be hidden censorship, it would be noticeable to even the average joe and ways around it would become more widespread.

No browser should be censoring any content, if a country wants to block something they should be forced to do it themselves, which would be more visible to the public.

Weslee ,

Honestly it looks like corpo speak for “we’re waiting for everyone to forget so we can sweep it under the rug”.

Weslee ,

Don’t use brave if you care about privacy, they claim to be privacy focused but will sell you out the first chance they get (which they already did)

Weslee ,

Your biggest mistake is trusting the word of a corporation.

If it was a good faith action why would they do it in secret, why not make a post about it and informing everyone before hand about the situation?

For me, all evidence points to them hoping no one would notice and “temporary” would roll over into permanently.

HP bricks ProBook laptops with bad BIOS delivered via automatic updates — many users face black screen after Windows pushes new firmware (www.tomshardware.com)

On May 26, a user on HP’s support forums reported that a forced, automatic BIOS update had bricked their HP ProBook 455 G7 into an unusable state. Subsequently, other users have joined the thread to sound off about experiencing the same issue....

Weslee ,

Jeez, I am currently trying to install Linux on my HP ProBook and having issues with it - one thing I noticed was my bios was last updated in 2014 so I was going to see if updating helped… Might hold off on that now

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back (www.windowscentral.com)

It’s a nightmare scenario for Microsoft. The headlining feature of its new Copilot+ PC initiative, which is supposed to drive millions of PC sales over the next couple of years, is under significant fire for being what many say is a major breach of privacy and security on Windows. That feature in question is Windows Recall, a...

Weslee ,

I’m using windows 11 and after hearing about recall and all the other shit they’ve done, I’ve finally decided to make the jump to Linux

So for atleast me, this was the final straw

Weslee ,

Lol. Okay whatever you say.

Weslee ,

Which distro did you end up on? I’ve been looking into them and after using steamos on my deck, I think I will go with Bazzite kde

Weslee ,

I get your point, and you’re probably right for most, but I haven’t purchased a premade desktop in a looong time - my current desktop I purchased the parts individually and installed windows manually

UN adds Israel to blacklist for harming children in conflict zones (www.middleeastmonitor.com)

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has notified Israel’s Defence Attache in the United States, Major General Hidai Zilberman, of his decision to add Israel to the blacklist of countries and organisations harming children in conflict zones....

Weslee ,

Sounds like a Trump quote

Weslee ,

I don’t understand the feeling of being a different gender than what I was assigned at birth, and I don’t need to - I can accept that others may have those feelings just fine.

Why do you think others need to force themselves to fit your understanding? Why do you need to understand them to respect them?

Answer is - you don’t.

Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy’s massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It’s been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let’s say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they’re what’s colloquially referred to...

Ah reminds me of good ol’ reddit

Wisconsin attorney general files felony charges against attorneys, aide who worked for Trump in 2020 (apnews.com)

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul filed felony forgery charges Tuesday against two attorneys and an aide who helped submit paperwork falsely saying that former President Donald Trump had won the battleground state in 2020....

Weslee ,

Hopefully it discourages republicans from trying to do it again, oh wait that would require critical thinking… Nvm

Weslee ,

Even if he gets house arrest, I just hope they take away internet access from him, so we can get the break from seeing his stupid name in the news

Weslee ,

My friend had this issue recently, it turned out to be his CPU overheating, his event log also showed no details of the cause, it was only when he installed a temp monitor and kept it open on his 2nd screen that he saw his CPU was hitting the max allowed temp just before getting the power cut.

Hope you manage to get it sorted

Weslee ,

Tbh I’d say it’s more about the fact china doesn’t allow western companies in china to do what tiktok was doing in the us.

Wtf is ATLA?

1 million customers are without power in Texas as Dallas and Houston get slammed with destructive storms | CNN (edition.cnn.com)

More than a million customers in Texas were without power Tuesday as powerful storms delivered another round of violent weather to the state still reeling from an almost unrelenting parade of destructive and deadly storms in recent weeks....

Weslee ,

Oh no remember these storms are from god to punish the gays and the sinners, so…

Weslee ,

In the grand scale of the universe we aren’t even a blip, any “permanent” damage we cause will be reversed over hundreds of thousands or millions of years after we’ve wiped ourselves out.

And even if there was some kind of damage that couldn’t be reversed, the next cycle of life would just adapt to whatever the issue is

Weslee ,

Oh yeah it’s all good, I just talked about millions of years of recovery and the extinction of humans, but yeah I’m a shill for big oil.

What are you smoking? I want some

Weslee ,

47.1 degrees Celsius for the rest of us

Weslee ,

They get away with it because it’s kept private and hidden behind closed doors, they are getting away with it for completely different reasons

Weslee ,

Is it also delusional to say that Biden is intentionally alienating the people most likely to vote for him?

I think it’s safe to say it’s a complex situation and saying Biden is doing everything he can is just as stupid as saying he is doing nothing at all.

Weslee ,

Make sure you apply your own views to heterosexual content then.

No content that shows; kissing, hand holding, weddings, happy couples, families.

Notice how none of this content is ‘controversial’ unless it has the word gay in front of it. None of this stuff is sexual, but you still think it’s damaging kids to see happy, functioning gay families.

You don’t give a shit about protecting kids, you just want to force your backwards views onto others

Weslee ,

On the other hand, the cheap Chinese cars are the result of a long chain of slavery and exploitation

Weslee ,

Probably that too, but I also think some people are just idiots

Weslee ,

I don’t get why people think one breed is worse than another. I have had Rottweilers, bullies, staffies, most of these “dangerous” breeds.

They have all been very good dogs, some I would say were some of the most gentle giant type dogs I’ve had, because I didn’t train them to be aggressive.

Just because a bully dog tends to be owned by a twat that likes to kick it and encourage it to attack other animals doesn’t mean all dogs of that breed are the same.

Weslee ,

I keep them on leads unless in remote locations. You judge me and these animals based on the worst minority demographic of dog owners.

Weslee ,

Cyberpunk was in development for atleast 12 years, I agree that corporate needs to be hands off when it comes to things like that, but at what point is there a line drawn and you just have to publish what you have got.

Weslee ,

I figured it was probably around 12 years, since the first teaser trailer came out 11 years ago, add afew years for the work they needed to do to even be ready to do a trailer (world lore, characters, etc)

Weslee ,

Google, windows, and WhatsApp for me.

I’ve been slowly phasing out Google, and going to experiment with Linux on my old laptop, with the eventual goal of getting rid of windows on my pc

Weslee ,

I don’t understand why a member of LGBT would willingly work for a Catholic school in the first place, surely it wouldn’t be a very nice place to be.

Weslee ,

Maybe www.codidact.com

Weslee ,

What’s wrong with training wheels?

Worst thing all these stupid guides do is not explain what the commands you are entering do.

Weslee ,

Then how do you learn anything to do with the internet?

Weslee ,

“they” would probably opt for more efficient robots and just let us poor people die/kill each other

Weslee ,

Is deleting 2 characters from the URL really causing you pain?

You even have a keyboard and mouse! It’s like less than 2 seconds to correct

Weslee ,

Pretty sure you know they mean us, the cats won’t drink this milk naturally without the dairy farms for human consumption

Pi.Alert is dead...💀 Long live NetAlert X 🚀 (network monitoring) (lemmy.world)

After thinking for about a year about it I decided to rename the project to 🚀NetAlertX. This will help prevent confusion about which fork someone is using, and differentiate it from the now stale upstream project. With about 1800 or so commits over the stale project, I thought, this project deserved a new name. It will also...

Weslee ,

Monitors your lan and notifies you if any unknown devices connect

Welllllll… What if you found out that every time you cut into a plant, it let out a high pitched scream that humans can’t hear?

Pretty sure Russia “kidnaps” (conscripts) a hell of alot more than Ukraine does.

Russia also beating Ukrainians in the occupied territories, forcing them to become Russian citizens, and then either forcing them into fighting against their own country or ship them off to some labour camp never too be seen again.

Do you think they are “free” to leave Russia?

Weslee ,

Wouldn’t be surprised if the people trying to push this policy are heavily invested in office real estate also

Weslee ,

I would like to ask all the black and gay republicans what the hell is going on in their minds.

I mean it’s obviously money, but still, I’d love to hear them justify it.
