ginerel , 10 months ago to news in ‘Despair is settling in’: female suicides on rise in Taliban’s Afghanistan

two thirds are still two thirds - whether that's 3 people out of 4 or 750.000 out of 1.000.000. And given that

A survey published in the journal BMC Psychiatry two months before the Taliban takeover found nearly half the population suffered from psychological distress.

I think the numbers are really worrying.

From what I understood, the gardens were, like, their headquarters. Bombing them would be their Achile's heel.

Indeed, as @FunderPants said, Metro Last Light should answer some of your questions :D

ginerel , 10 months ago to asklemmy in What is your favorite insult in your native language that doesn't exist or cant be directly translated in English?

Băga-mi-aș pula-n coliva mă-tii de să-mi sară coaiele din bomboană-n bomboană

This is a highly niche one in my native language as well, as one must also know what is colivă - it's basically a desert that we eat at funerals with m&m-sized candies in it as well. So it roughly translates let me stick my dick in your mother's coliva so hard that my balls jump from candy to candy

You have more people that know how to exit a note app tho, compared to vim.

ginerel , 10 months ago to asklemmy in Do you still write notes with pen and paper?

Have you tried using different colors to highlight certain content? This way, you can somehow remember what is going on and where, and you remember to look for certain keywords. You can sometimes put certain words in a square, so you won't develop a habit and actually remember what you wrote.

Don't have kids

I maybe wouldn't go that far, I would rather have a kid and teach them how to make this fucked world better.

I'm single anyway, tho, so little do I know.

I was a RedReader user for quite a while (as in years). While being a bit spartan, I found it to be the best Reddit app for my preferences. Period.

But indeed, nowadays, there is actual (great) content on Lemmy and Kbin, and I am willing to get to it. Not much time left for Reddit. Sorry, spez, fuck you!

We can see their content, they can't see ours.

Wasn't defederation a two-way thing? Basically the whole instance (website, in laymen terms) blocked you. Nothing goes in, nothing goes out between you two.
