If you’re savvy, look at blocking them at the dns level with software like pihole or blocky.

Yeah, we’re so imaginary we’ve kept Taiwan free and the CCP contained all this time, among dozens of other things. Opposing forces have said going against our special forces is like fighting against aliens because we’re so advanced, methodical and well trained.

The money that they’re “taking” was given freely by partitioners to do exactly these kinds of things. It’s collective action for social good, just maybe not with the religion of your preference.

I don’t know about where you live but in my town the Catholics run the largest food pantry. During this latest SNAP crisis they were crucial to the community. Sure there’s some hypocrisy somewhere I’m sure but there always will be in any collection of people.

What’s more important is instead of being cynical, to just get out there and help them yourself. Sure call it out, but in my experience a lot of folks that make statements like this are usually just on the sidelines not contributing.

It definitely could be. After the release of smart phones it i society definitely changed and I don’t think it was for the better in many ways.

It’s the intent that matters here, not all public displays of faith go against the teachings of Jesus. But yeah, someone doing it just to draw attention is wrong.

Oh man, the Viking conquest dlc for the original warband is my most played game ever on steam. Gonna have to check this out!

I agree, I love Wikipedia! If they’re ever actually in need of money and not just trying to grow for growth’s sake I’ll pitch in.

I’ll just leave this right here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guy_Macon/Wikipedia_has_Cancer

I used to donate but have since switched to other more needing causes.

It’s nuts you’re getting down voted for this statement. Christianity actually teaches it’s followers to not be traitors or liars. But I guess we ARE on Lemmy, haha.

Where I’m at, it’s a life saver to retain moisture in the soil, as we’re very dry and windy. Without it, plants need watering much more often!

Gotta say I really love CoMaps. I think it’s currently the most viable Google maps replacement!

Installation is pretty straight forward, usually it looks like plugging into your OBD2 port, running a cable up to your window, and attaching an adaptor into your camera system. It basically sets up like a dash cam, but with more integration into the vehicle.

The software and device currently supports 325+ cars. I think the car needs to have electronic steering and the automatic distance keeping features. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like Volvo is supported, but the project is open source and can always grow. There are also community forks, I am currently using SunnyPilot.

Indeed it is. The comma has that same effect except maybe five fold.

I’ve been using a comma 3x for quite a while now and I really enjoy it, I love to see the progress!

Used it on a cross country road trip to see the solar eclipse in full totality and it was amazing how much it reduced my fatigue from driving long hours.

Yes, this is key. Usually places without profit motive are serving the people in some capacity rather than serving the dollar.

I seem to recall watching a world war timeline and it was similar with Russia back then too, until the defense fell and then it was all over quickly. I worry this could happen to Ukraine if they don’t receive the support needed to hold them off, as Russia has a lot more resources to chuck into their horrible meat grinder.

Yeah you’re probably right. Bad move on his part if he wanted to avoid this.

With a net worth of 150 million dollars, maybe he could go make his own ice cream store and campaign from that platform? And then not sell out to a giant megacorp and act surprised then they do mega corpo stuff.
