  On WAN. Often hosting providers charge extra for ipv4 addresses, so many servers just don’t get them anymore

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the deal with IPv6?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of servers these days run only on IPv6

  Intergenerational wealth doesn’t go away. Belgium would need to return every penny extracted from their slavery and torture in the Congo to even reach neutral status.

  Norway’s oil isn’t used domestically. The problem is that they sell it. It’s irrelevant if they use it domestically or not. It’s still being dug up and burned. That’s the problem.

  I don’t think there exists an ethical country. It’s a sad reality. Cuba is maybe one of the closest to ethical (specifically thinking of State-sposnored efforts to send aid workers to disaster areas for altruistic reasons), but they certainly are not an ethical country.

  Sweden is swinging to fascism, and they have the largest arms industry per capita in the world. They literally profit from unethical wars.

  Norway is drilling and exporting oil, which is profiting from mass extinction and one of the biggest existential threats to most life on earth.

  Canada usually joins the US in their unethical wars for oil. Also, their tar sands project in Alberta is one of the most ecologically devistating projects on the planet. And also profiting from contributing to the climate catastrophe.

  What countries are ethical??

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there an "Avoid Amazon" community for people who want to support smaller online retailers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re not owned by amazon. They are using FBA (Fulfilment By Amazon)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there an "Avoid Amazon" community for people who want to support smaller online retailers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Use the website.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there an "Avoid Amazon" community for people who want to support smaller online retailers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol wut. Most people on earth wash laundry without a washing machine

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there an "Avoid Amazon" community for people who want to support smaller online retailers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t that a violation of the terms of selling on Amazon?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gonna be straight forward, how is Donald Trump not considered a Global/Donestic Terrorist?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It was sporadic then. Since ww1 it’s been a constant state of war profiteering

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gonna be straight forward, how is Donald Trump not considered a Global/Donestic Terrorist?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not true. It mostly started after ww1

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do a majority of nation's flags use the rectangular shape except Nepal?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not even half hour increment ffs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do a majority of nation's flags use the rectangular shape except Nepal?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And Jesus and Allah are myths, you say?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you (a regular American citizen) had actionable, insider knowledge about the US Federal Government/Military and felt the public should know, how would you tell everyone?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol wut? Snowden changed a ton of things. Http used to be default back then. Encryption had a huuuge roll out thanks to Snowden

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you (a regular American citizen) had actionable, insider knowledge about the US Federal Government/Military and felt the public should know, how would you tell everyone?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Secure Drop to all the news sites, international.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a platform like github that isn't for code?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, most academics I know collaborate on git. They have zero code. Just use it for datasets and such.

  Another example is datasets on covid infections and deaths from John Hopkins Uni. They used github.

  I’m consistently surprised by the number of my friends that use github who are not coders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Which country are you from?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Exclusive: AI Error Likely Led to Iran Girl's School Bombing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. Other news outlets commented how contradictory it was that they declared it a supply chain risk, yet continued to use it in an active military campaign.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Exclusive: AI Error Likely Led to Iran Girl's School Bombing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  WSJ was first to report that Claude was used in determining targets in Iran, but it’s paywalled.

  Futurism published an article asking the Pentagon about it, and the Pentagon refused to answer questions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Exclusive: AI Error Likely Led to Iran Girl's School Bombing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Reuters said it was the US, not Israel.

  Both are capable of committing genocide, with or without AI. See history.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americans: How the hell do you meet new people or get into relationships after college?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sell the car. Move into a tiny 3br apartment with roommates in a walkable city.

  Date your roommate’s friends. They’ll date yours.

  Change roommates occasionally.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the USA attacking Iran?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No. The US gives Israel money, not the other way around. The Israeli economy would crash if it wasn’t constantly being propped up by the US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Realistcly how much can be cleaned out of a house, as a child of a hourder?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, lots of asshole saying to throw things away. Don’t throw things away!

  Hire an estate sale agent, who will be paid by the sales. They’ll use eBay and marketplace and all the local places to find good homes for anything of value. That’s their job.

  Anything you can’t sell, donate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Realistcly how much can be cleaned out of a house, as a child of a hourder?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hire an estate sales agent

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure, but zoom out. I think the vast majority of people watched it over-and-over in sheer glee.

  And later slept much better, knowing that a horrible person spreading hate was no longer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, I’m not defending a specific instance. I’m merely pointing out that there does exist a time and place where people should be allowed to dress as despicable characters from history

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So we’re not allowed to make movies that show the horrific history of Nazi Germany?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean Charlie Kirk getting shot in the neck?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is gold investing a scam?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Linking to outside content is good. How else could people cite their sources?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a uBlock Origin filter or extension for LLM slop in search results⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean it literally doesn’t load. If you have been able to use YT in the past year, your browser is seriously insecure.
