let’s fucking goo

Yeah, each time I “subscribe” for sth I use a prepaid card. Once the transaction is made, it destroys itself.

Same. I had S3, then LG v10 and both lost support after 2 years and because unusable. So I bought iphone xr and now it’s my 6th year with it. And it works fine, I just had to replace the battery.

samokosik , 26 days ago

It’s tougher to fit a reasonably sized battery to a laptop where you can replace everything. And it’s 85 which is not so far from 90.

I personally believe that no discrimination against people based on religion, race, color of skin is appropriate. So I believe that any islamophobic symbol is incorrect.

However, same rule applies to the other side. No islamic minorities should show symbols which could be disrespectful towards different people.

samokosik , 6 months ago

So the general issue why burning such a copy should be considered incorrect is the fact that Quran, apart from being just another book, is a symbol of Islamic religion. Hence why it appears offensive to Muslims. Same logic applies to other symbols. Do you think it’s absolutely okay to come to a square and burn LGBTI or BLM flags. If you were a gay and saw someone else burning a rainbow flag, would you feel safe at such place?

samokosik , 6 months ago

Would you also consider chants such as “death to all Jews/gays/black people” or actions such as burning trans flag as freedom of speech and do you believe it should be tolerated?

samokosik , 6 months ago

I would not necessarily say it’s because people don’t understand Muslims. I myself have nothing in common with Muslims, as well.

More likely the case is that there are 2 approaches to free speech. First one advocates for absolute free speech whilst the second is more aligned with “my liberty ends where yours begins” phrase.

samokosik , 6 months ago

Sorry, but then I do not understand your logic. To me it seems like you are saying that people should be able to burn Quran (because freedom of speech) but at the same time you believe that burning a trans flag* should not be tolerated. Where is the difference? I am not saying that your opinion is incorrect, I am just unsure what your stand is because suddenly when your logic is applied to a different situation, you refuse to respond

Also, if you believe that ad hominem will make your argument look stronger, then you are clearly wrong.

*Just to make sure: I support all LGBTI rights, I just used them as a comparison.

samokosik , 6 months ago

That’s valid. Thanks for clarification.

samokosik , 6 months ago

Sorry but what? If Hamas wants to return them, why did they take them in the first place?

samokosik , 6 months ago

Not at all. Read the definition of ethnic cleansing.

samokosik , 6 months ago

And did you ask yourself why they don’t have the right to vote? It was decision made by Hamas and PLO not to organize another election.

samokosik , 6 months ago

I have.

samokosik , 6 months ago

I have and it still does not relate to Israel. Death of 15k whilst the number of Palestinians is 5 million is not genocide. Surely, it’s terrible but it’s not a genocide especially considering how many of them died due to lack of bunkers in Gaza.

Bibi made an especially terrible decision when making a coalition with the extreme nationalists.

samokosik , 8 months ago

Honestly, just use latex if you need equations.

samokosik , 8 months ago

I would interpret it as there are literally terrorists against Israel. There are no excuses for supporting terrorism.

samokosik , 8 months ago

It’s just a simple thing with russia: they always support the right opposite of what USA supports even at the cost of supporting terrorists such as Hamas. That’s simply sad.

samokosik , 8 months ago

Israel is not a terrorist state. Unlike Gaza and West bank :|

samokosik , 8 months ago

Obviously there will be some civil cases if there is a war. But again, the war would not be the case if Hamas (which is btw considered a terrorist organization by both EU and other states), didn’t start a war.

How exactly is israel attacking civilians living in Gaza? Did they start shooting people in Gaza for no reason?

Is it Israel or Hamas who purposefully uses civilians as a shield and builds buildings for the army in the middle of inhibited zones?

samokosik , 8 months ago

How exactly? I don’t see how Israel attacks its own citizens. Sure, some views of today’s government are extreme and I strongly disagree with them (especially with people around Itamar Ben-Gvir) but at the same time there is a considerable amount of arabs being normal Israeli citizens. Needless to say, comments of those far-right idiots do not help, just like terrorist attacks by Hamas do not.

Also don’t forget that Israel was giving water and electricity to Gaza for a long time. Gaza’s government was for 70 years unable to solve this problem. Instead of doing the best to improve their citizens’ lives, they focused on destroying Israel, killing jews and building military facilities in the middle of inhibited areas.

samokosik , 8 months ago

Hamas is not a product of Israel. It’s the product of the fact that palestinian governments refused numerous proposals and chose the way of fighting and inhumane.

Unfortunately, at this point of time I don’t see any solution other than one side destroying the other. This will hurt both palestinians and israelis

samokosik , 8 months ago

Despite the fact Gaza needs to be solved and terrorist organizations like Hamas need to be removed, a day for civilians to leave it so so so short.

samokosik , 8 months ago

how many times has palestine been offered land for peace? Many - In 1948, 1967 and even later there were offers which mentioned connecting palestine and gaza. all the times, palestinians refused it.

Hence why I am under the impression that they are more responsible for this conflict.

samokosik , 8 months ago

Not really. It’s definitely a bit tough to judge who did the dessert belong to. But historically, there was a point in time when jews were living in that area.

samokosik , 8 months ago

It has been recognized as palestine for a logn long time (since rome), though state was never present. Palestine as a state never existed and thoughts about creating a palestinian state began after Ww2

Why would be 2 biggest instances be defedarating from each other?

This would be a terrible choice. For me it’s enough that some instances are down from time to time.

samokosik , 10 months ago

having 1719 fediverse platforms won’t help fediverse grow

samokosik , 10 months ago

Same here. My main account is on lemmynsfw and it’s down atm :/

samokosik OP , 11 months ago

I get your point. I see the way of posting is quite different. mastodon has simpler posts.

So if there was a feature to interact via one app with both platforms, it would make more sense to approach this from the lemmy perspective

samokosik OP , 11 months ago

They both use fediverse. So it is theoretically possible to view one’s content from another. However, it ends up being a UX nightmare.

samokosik OP , 11 months ago

I like this approach!

samokosik OP , 11 months ago

Do wefwef or memmy support kbin?

samokosik , 11 months ago

I use wefwef As long as you do not use threads, you are good to go

samokosik , 11 months ago

I honestly hope lemmy will not die. It will have to become simpler though. For many people, it will be simply way too complicated to wrap their head around the fact of many instances and most of them will worry about not being able to interact with people from other instances.

Also, the main lemmy web app is not necessarily good and alternatives such as wefwef are far easier to use.

samokosik , 11 months ago

hopefully more detailed analysis will come

samokosik , 11 months ago

I have never used it on reddit. I have always found them useless

samokosik , 11 months ago

nice approach :)

samokosik , 11 months ago

Niceeee, lets go to 1mil. Although not sure how some community members will react to the threads issue. I saw many people did not like the fact you have not yet decided to defederate

samokosik , 11 months ago

I am around 20 and use lemmy, but I agree my friends need instagram

samokosik , 11 months ago

It works well even on my linux desktop. But in terms of design fits best into iOS

samokosik , 11 months ago

Is there any way how to move account into another instance? Basically so I don’t lose posts.

I myself am interested what lemmy.world’s admins will do. Now they get a lot of criticism for not doing anything but so far I wouldn’t blame them that much.

PS: I would probably still defederate if it was my decision

samokosik , 11 months ago

I agree with you. We should not kill them for not defederating immediatelly

samokosik , 11 months ago

That’s literally not the official one. At least it collects less data. Anyone has experience with what it does? Just connects to fediverse?

samokosik , 11 months ago

Universities would be perfect! If their instances can be public, I would love to see educational content from them

samokosik OP , 11 months ago

I have done this. I follow fediverse on mastodon and I get posts from various fedi instances.

However, it is quite clunked. Basically it seems to me like a bunch of random posts
