World News@lemmy.world•Saudi journalist says 'not all attacks' on Gulf coming from Iran, fears US-Israel dragging monarchies into warEnglish
71·2 hours agoWhere there is oil, your country will always be involved. It’s the blood of America and there’s no indication of fixing that. This is one of the nation’s many likely options for downfall.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Plastic hinges on modern headphonesEnglish
1·2 hours agoYeah WH1000XMs are a very popular bang for buck wireless set. 5 is the latest.
That said, I have 2s that still go strong besides the battery. 4s going strong for a few years. Partner has had 5s for a while, no issues. All plastic hinges.
Not sure what OP is doing. Seems like a difficult part of the headset to break.
That’s similar to the one where the couple breaks up over a misunderstanding and all it takes is one of them explaining in like 10s. But instead someone storms off while the other pleas, and deep down you’re like, “That motherfucker so wanted it to end anyway.”
But then we deal with post-break up scenes and you realise they’re just idiots that still haven’t even thought to clear up the misunderstanding via a single text, call, or friend. It could all be resolved, laughed about, and fucking again like that afternoon.

Technology@lemmy.zip•Microsoft Copilot to hijack your browser... for your own convenienceEnglish
3·9 hours agoI figure if you’re already the kind of person to chat with Copilot, you’re not the kind of person that will be inconvenienced by it launching links in chat instead of your browser.
For 95% of other users, though, that would be infuriating.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Finally someone has threaded the needle between survival game and horse girl sim [The Legend of Khiimori]English
22·1 day agoThe Legend of Khiimori is an open world survival sim where you play as a horse courier in 13th century Mongolia. I’ve jokingly called it ‘Death Stranding but horses’ and, after playing six hours myself, that description really isn’t too far off. Naraa the courier has to make deliveries between Mongolia’s historical Yam postal stations, connect more stations to the Yam network, balance the weight distribution in her mount’s saddlebags, and chart slow and thoughtful routes through the hills of the steppe.
Sounds really good, actually.

World News@lemmy.world•Macron says France will allow temporary deployment of nuclear-armed jets to European alliesEnglish
27·1 day agoYes, it’s exactly that. It’s France showing the world that EU countries are just fine without the US, so no one—yku know who—should get any ideas.

10·1 day agoI don’t think I could get off if my partner was wearing these hideous things.
Or anyone else in the room for that matter.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Spain's government denies cooperating with US operations in Mideast, contradicting White HouseEnglish
21·1 day agoSpain most certainly wouldn’t.
So, Whitehouse, you’re telling me the guys that sent a naval ship to support the Gaza flotilla, is the base of the next floatilla launching, and has routinely and aggressively opposed Israel, their crimes against humanity, and disregard of international law, much louder than any other country; that Spain has suddenly started helping with the Iran thing?

Who was the last Republican president that didn’t initiate a war in the middle-east?
This goes back as far as I can remember.
Well, in nature there’s no genders.
We were born from bits and pieces and will go back to them, in a timespan that’s not even worth noting.
But in human society genders were created and their contents is specific to the culture and society you’re in, so you don’t even get an international standard.
Take those away, though and you’re just being back to how you were born; genderless. If you were born without the rest of us, you’d.never even know what gender is. That there are specific rules, dependent on society and culture, to what you can do, wear, earn, fuck, and behave like based on other people’s interpretation of your biological make up.
You can adhere to these ideas and get upset, or not.
doesn’t mean its a bad thing
Oh, that’s not up to you, though. This is something determined on an individual level so you have no control over how other people perceive it. It is entirely a brain by brain basis.
So, for you it’s not a bad thing, but for others it is. Just as others don’t even think about it or care for the concept at all. Involvement in any identity is involvement in how others perceive you. If you’re passionate about your identity, how others perceive you, you’ll likely be passionate when their perception doesn’t match what you’re trying to make it.
There’s people offended by being given any gender label. Then there’s those like me that don’t care and see it as something for others to decide, since my identity exists only in their minds and it’s not up to me to control how they see the world, or even care too much. That’s how we know it’s a social concept. If you were born the only person on earth, you wouldn’t even have an identity to worry about. You wouldn’t know which height is best, which hair colour is best, your “role” in society, what you’re supposed to wear, etc. All these social concept never got invented and you’re just you.
People are just insecure about gender; even though it, and all of the traits that come along with it, are entirely made up social concepts that only exist for those that acknowledge them.
Because it’s not a real actual thing, it 's entirely open to interpretation and as such some people will see the same thing as good while others see it bad. Because it’s found only with a social base—i.e. an ‘identity’ or how other people perceive you—the more aware someone is of other’s seeing them, the more likely they are to be passionate about the concept and adhere to it.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Rabbit holes, girl; have you never heard of them?
181·5 days agoSuddenly feel empathy for that guy. I hope it works out for them in the end, but red flags.
It’s a defence mechanism. I want to scare people away from trying to participate in a topic they know nothing about but feel like an expert in. Those that do know about the acronyms are worth the while.
Edit: I don’t have autism.
There’s actually very little evidence of Satan being a dick.
When I say “evidence” I mean the book comprised of stolen stories and single perspectives, passed through the translative hands of power hungry entities. But even then, when you actually look at it, Satan comes across as the good guy.

News@lemmy.world•Cybertruck owner sues Tesla for more than $1m after Houston Autopilot crash
61·5 days agoGonna get me a Cybertruck just so I can fuck with Elon with a lawsuit.
Because I couldn’t be bothered typing the details. Two ‘close enough’ letters were irresistible to my apathy and general laziness.

















You forgot then asked them for help in Iran.
