This dude is getting legitimately downvoted for JAQing off. Also, his home instance is explicitly anti-corporate and anarchist, so defending right wing billionaires is against our rules. You are correct that Lemmy is generally left of centre, depending on the instance, so JAQing in defense of billionaire assholes is never gonna go down well.
I guess the thought was it’d be much harder for low paid workers to live for 4 weeks on savings, before their first paycheck came in. But yeah, I get your point.
It also varies by profession and/or position in some countries. Managers and “professionals” on higher salaries will often be paid monthly, whereas “ordinary” employees would usually get paid weekly or bi-weekly. Personally, I think it’s a tacit acknowledgement that it’s much harder to budget for a whole month on lower rates of pay.
Ok great, glad you managed to figure it out.
Are you using 2FA on your account?
Dang, I’m shit out of ideas. I think we’ve thoroughly ruled out a browser or extension issue. I’ve verified you now. Let’s see if that helps.
Hmm interesting. The NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND error
I can think of a few more things to try:
Obviously, you will lose your current Firefox settings with some of these actions, so caution is advised.
Sorry I can’t be more specific, it’s hard to know specifically what’s causing the issue since I can’t replicate.
Hmm, ok, I’m on Ubuntu Firefox and was just able to log out and then back in no problem. Just trying to narrow down the issue in case it was a browser thing. I’d suggest next to try logging in using a private browser window so all your extensions are disabled and see if it works then.
Can you give us detailed steps to replicate? I was able to login just fine on Firefox.
Did you get it sorted out? Was probably due to server upgrade bugs.
The mod log reason for removing this comment thread is “Toxic and pointless off-topic comment thread about grammar in a meme.” That’s not mod abuse, it’s just moderation. Mod abuse would be telling you to fuck off.
I completely agree with you on ACAB in capitalist countries, for the same reasons you mentioned, but cops in “actually existing socialist” countries like Russian and China are no better. They still use authoritarian violence to oppress anyone who steps out of line with the will of the State. There are many, many historic and more contemporary examples of socialist countries using the [secret] police and/or troops to quell dissent from unions, anarchists, and other leftist groups, because anyone who protests the actions of the State, no matter how legitimately, is considered to be an enemy of the State, whether that State is capitalist or not.
Those imperialist western dogs! Imagine providing a deterence and actual consequences for Xi’s planned invasionreunification of Taiwan. What were they thinking? That countries have the right to choose their own form of government and who their allies are? If they are allied with Western liberal democracies, then it stands to reason they are Nazis, anyway. Xi should really send in the tanks asap to kill anyone doesn’t agree with uskill all the Nazis and re-educateliberate the people!
I don’t know what to tell ya, I don’t find the word that rhymes with “hanky” offensive at all, especially when it’s applied to someone who seems to fit the bill. I think the main difference between MLs and liberals is that liberals are well aware their governments are flawed and are willing and able to criticize them and protest against bad policies, whereas the MLs are dedicated to the idea that it’s wrong to criticize non-Western governments, because “left unity”, “critical support” etc. This, despite the fact (or maybe because of it) that most of the governments they defend are totalitarian states where government criticism lands you in jail, in a re-education camp, or falling out of a window. This quote sums it up nicely:
Authoritarians, having argued so doggedly for the domination of a paternalistic state and having therefore turned themselves into ideological infants, then develop a hyper-reductive view of geopolitics; precisely the one, in fact, that a state would like for them to have. “Socialism” becomes pathologically confused with “opposing capitalist nations” or more appropriately, “opposing all states aligned with the United States.” They attempt to simplify the struggles of the entire planet down into two camps, the “bad guy imperialist states” and the “good guy anti-imperialist states.” In doing so, worker emancipation is simplified into a single question: “do you support the imperialists or the anti-imperialists?” Woe be to those who do not submit to their reductive understanding. The statists who advocate this position are completely incapable of even understanding what an “anti-imperialist” entity might look like. They, in fact, simply support one imperialist bloc over the other in a battle of two power-hoarders.
There are currently some front end bugs with the default UI since the update to 0.19.4. Crossposting is also broken currently. You can try a different front end for now, they seem to be less buggy.
Lol yes, they actuallyproudly call themselves that! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Pirate_Party
One option worth checking out is Jackett. You can configure it to search multiple sources at once, and sort by the number of seeders to check for torrent health. You can integrate Jackett search into QBittorrent and/or the *ARR stack for a more seamless experience.
From the article:
From the “recent news” article mentioned above:
Honestly, I agree, it’s a serious accusation against Kaspersky with very scant details and allegations made by off-the-record “officials”. Having said that, just because they didn’t present any compelling evidence doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. In the words of Carl Sagan, “Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.” I’m not sure where that leaves us though lol. Honestly, I don’t trust Kaspersky with my data any less that with any of the other big antivirus companies. I guess it makes sense they would want antivirus software with CIA/NSA backdoors over alternatives though :p
