@Fitik@fedia.io Have you tried using Firefox Multi-account containers for this purpose?

@Boomkop3@reddthat.com @Psychodelic@lemmy.world @FeelzGoodMan420@eviltoast.org

@thegreenguy It doesn’t, but if you’re lucky, your city might have a transit app itself (mine does). Even if chances are that it’s not open source either, you’ll still be able to cut your dependency to Google to a certain extent.

@tootnbuns

@Kit It’s just a different experience to see the picture on a bigger screen.

@t3rmit3 I was talking about the current elections. I do not think that that guy’s act was a specific act of revenge for the January 6th insurrection at the Capitol, especially if that guy was a Republican registered voter. Otherwise, he could have acted sooner instead of waiting for a presidential term to finish. The guy’s attempt was specifically due to Trump’s current nomination as a candidate. That’s why I asked you how did it already happen during this election process, not in the past.

Yes, absolutely.

I think you might not be that different from a Republican on this one :) even though for a different reason.

I think you’ve got the question backwards. States are the worst instigators of violence against marginalized, smaller, and weaker groups

States are also the ones using public money to fund healthcare centers, centers for people in need (eldery, women escaping abusive relationships, unwanted children), they are also making the public space more accessible for people with disabilities, they are providing public transport options for people unable to ensure themselves this option, sometimes even providing means of communications (through mail for example). Of course, you could point out that there is more work to be done in some cases and in many countries, but it’s still an effort in the right direction and, imo, these sometimes provide better options than letting individuals work by themselves in order to solve these problems.

If you’d ask me, I would feel safer in this regard when accessing these services provided by the state instead of relying on a fringe (sometimes) armed group, looking to gain power for themselves. But that’s just me, I guess…

@catileptic sper să fie așa. Dar na, de exemplu pe Reddit unii oameni sunt cam nemulțumiți de Lemmy :)) nici eu nu l-am folosit așa mult înainte de prima migrație de pe Reddit. Beehaw era cam cel mai suportabil server mai activ și treptat am ajuns să urmăresc mai toate grupurile de acolo :)) Acum e mai altfel peisajul. Apar frecvent servere noi, comunități noi pe servere existente etc.

Altfel, mă bucur că ați scris și voi :D nu e prima resursă în română, dar e bine să fie și acolo. Poate poate o să fie tot mai multă lume și la noi, dar asta mă gândesc că depinde și de starea ecosistemului.

@t3rmit3 My server is dead today, so I cannot reply from my main account.

Obviously, yes? […]

I gasped for a moment, but yes, we are talking about internal violence committed by a group of people inside that country.

Hmm, you mean like has already happened?

How exactly has it already happened, more specifically, during this election? Did anyone try to shoot Biden or any Democrat in this campaign?

Assassinations are an action that occurs to protect a given status quo.

This is highly debatable. The nazis, fascists, legionnaires did a lot of politically motivated crimes in order to get in power. Does that make them the protectors of the status quo? What about various terrorist organizations around the world? What about people trying to kill Hitler? Anyway, I won’t go on with this because it is more of a separate discussion.

But do you think that a state that doesn’t have this ability of protecting its own power and its own monopoly on violence would be a safer, freer and more just to its people than a state that has it? Do you think that such a state could protect marginalized, smaller and weaker groups better than a state that has this monopoly of violence?

@baatliwala Now I feel old…

@RePierre Probabil mergea și el încet că face spumă

@catileptic Sună super interesantă activitatea voastră și mă bucur că există și la noi o organizație care să se ocupe de aceste aspecte ale vieții online.

Credeți totuși că fediversul va avea câtuși de puțin succes la noi în țară? Eu am încercat să mai conving lume să încerce, dar nu prea au fost așa interesați. Și mi se pare că în general lumea de pe aici e total opusul vastei majorități a românilor: foarte pricepută în a folosi tehnologia și interesată de cele mai recente tendințe în tehnologie, foarte investită în FOSS și Linux și politic progresistă de stânga sau chiar foarte de stânga. Uneori nici eu nu sunt de acord cu opiniile majoritar exprimate pe aici. Și pe lângă asta, răspund folosind contul ăsta întrucât serverul pe care am eu contul principal e picat de aproape 2 săptămâni. Înainte de asta i-am arătat unei foste colege de muncă o postare de pe Fedi și când m-a întrebat de unde este, i-am răspuns ceva mai vag. Dacă o convingeam și își făcea cont pe serverul acela, probabil ar fi fost cea mai proastă experiență pe care ar fi avut-o cu o rețea socială vreodată.

Nici organizații sau personalități nu prea vezi pe aici. Singurii români notabili pe care i-am văzut că mai postează sunt purtătoarea de cuvânt a NATO și fiica Elenei Lasconi (care, evident, nu postează deloc în română pentru că nu au audiență).

@PhlubbaDubba @tardigrada You still need email for pretty much most services. You need to log in? Create an account using your email and password. Need to work somewhere? A phone number is essential, but the employers will also use your email to message you if you cannot be reached on the phone (happened to me once) or when sending video call invites.

WhatsApp is ubiquitous when it comes to chatting, but for more elaborate communications, email still rules.

@Skua Pretty low, I think, as Romarm is just another state enterprise whose main purpose is to justify the paychecks of some politically appointed directors of the governing coalition, while the factories themselves contain old machinery, are in conservation (official lingo for “abandoned”) or sold to scrap to make room for real estate projects or shopping centers. They did however encounter a surge in demand lately since the war began. I am sure that there are other post-communist states that can contribute with the production too, though, so we can have it at an acceptable level.

@Steve It does sound geeky, but yes, it is technically correct to say about a year that is the hottest year on record.

And the fact you pointed that every single year becomes the hottest year on record makes it even more dangerous and shows that we need to take proper measures.

@remington But how can 13 men fit into that tiny space of 1?

@chonglibloodsport well, for them it is their country. They had all the right in the world to return and fight for a change just as they had all the right to stay inside their adoptive countries in a relative safety (provided the Kremlin would not assassinate them there). They chose the former, probably thinking they would make a bigger impact inside the country. Well, turns it wasn’t such a great idea.
