  I don't care or use it either, but I haven't seen a single use case for that wallet nor mobilecoins. Does people actually use it and for what?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the deal with Signal?⁩ ⁨⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Getting people to switch to Signal was difficult in the first place
  Imagine trying to get them to use PGP lmao

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the deal with Signal?⁩ ⁨⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  If only the was some indicator for unsecure messages, such as a grey send button and an open padlock. 🙄

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the deal with Signal?⁩ ⁨⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  This was such a dumb decision

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the best post sort for Lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I went by scaled on my previous instance because I enjoy seeing small communities posts as well and they easily drown otherwise.
  However piefed doesn't have that sorting :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any non-zero possibility Musk was not doing a Hitler Salute?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The main issue is that his heil combined with his previously expressed opinions and actions removes all doubt

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  ..Yes, individuals are different from each other and the aggregated sum shows a tendency for women being better at governance than men.

  This obviously doesn't mean that there are no men that are good at governance or women who are worse as you point out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Go wild on google.scholar.com and you will find plenty to read. :)
  Useful terms might be "women (duh)", "gender", "impact", "governance", "politics", "environment", "peace" etc
  Also private companies reports more long-term benefits with a majority of women board members so you might want to look for that as well

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A fair point to that is women's voting and leadership tend to lead to more peaceful and fruitful governance

  A picture can be a freeze frame of any movement. The video of it made clear that he heiled.
  But damn, he did it twice in row? This is just going downhill.

  What's in the full video, him putting on a SS uniform?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fact that this is a real image is infuriating⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Jews weren't the sole target of the Nazis. Liberals, socialists, communists, union members, homosexuals etc etc.
  I don't think anyone believes Musk and his bestie is gonna round up Jews in concentration camps. But maybe in time it could be aforementioned people.

  So Elon Musk heiling on stage, expressing love for the nazi-lite patry in Germany (of all places) and the President cozying up to Israel where one of the minister describes himself as "fascist" is maybe not wild conclusions.

  Not seeing this for what it is is missing the forrest for all trees.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fact that this is a real image is infuriating⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We aren't talking about Nazi Germany here

  Yet

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fact that this is a real image is infuriating⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, that would have been the excuse Elon would make should there be any backlash.
  "Oh no you guys it wasn't a Hitler salute it was me throwing my heart out to you all very forcefully because I was taken be strong emotions I promise"

  It was not meant as laughter, more of a matter-of-factly statement lol 🤷

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven't experienced it myself though I have felt it close sometimes. Almost everyone in my family has some mental health issue.

  But I have seen a friend having one. While he wasn't aggressive he was weird and unpleasant. At the end he had estranged most of those around him and we no longer have contact lol. Oh and that was the second time he had one, the first time he jumped from a balcony.
  No idea if they have mental illnesses in their family though.

  Just don't smoke heavily and you should be fine.
  Like once in a month maybe.

  I don't understand your logic at all. Being anti-terrorism is not equal to being pro-genocide and vice versa.
  It isn't a black and white world and taking a stance doesn't require sith lord reasoning.

  Saying that you condemn both assault and murder doesn't make one worse and the other less so. It's a simple acknowledgement of wrong acts being wrong which is perfectly fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Imperialism, authoritarianism and oppression is bad all around m'kay⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  But it doesn't. It perfectly fine to say Hamas terrorist attacks are wrong and at the same town saying the Israeli genocide is wrong.

  The problem is that when Russia bombs a children's hospital and it's pointed out as a war crime, there's always some schmuck saying "Oh yeah?! But the US is responsible for hundreds of thousand dead civilians in Afghanistan!"
  And yes, that is fucking hineous but it doesn't make leveling a hospital less severe. 🙄

  A bad is a bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Imperialism, authoritarianism and oppression is bad all around m'kay⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The whole point is to condemn evil whatever the intensity, scale or who is responsible.
  But somehow it always comes to a comparison of evilness (obviously always the US) which somehow excuses (mostly Chinese or Russian) atrocities. And that is the issue.
