    Yeah, dude tried to open his own personal Netflix and is surprised it got taken down.

    From post history he managed to keep it up for less than a month.

    I’m betting by “friends” he meant either online friends he’s never met, or people he wanted to impress.

    So they gave zero fucks and handed it out to more people. Like, just the idea that you’re giving it to so many people that you actually buy a domain?

    There’s a reason everyone isn’t already doing it already.



  • The decision to nuke japan was based on factors entirely different than any possible factor to nuke gaza.

    Pretty sure we’re still handing out the purple hearts that were made in case a ground invasion was necessary.

    Like, those stories about Japanese soldiers hiding for decades and never believing Japan surrendered? That was the common sentiment.

    And loads more civilians were killed in traditional bombings.

    It was the fact that one atomic bomb could do so much damage, and the Japanese had no idea how many we had. You could rebuild buildings destroyed conventionally. But atomic bombs could literally make land uninhabitable for generations.

    That’s what it took to make Japan surrender.

    It was brutal and I hope it never happens again, but it was the best hand we could have played.






  • I mean, they know they’re stealingg it from a real person, and no matter how careful you are, they’re tracking you.

    Even if you don’t have a profile, they have a “you shaped hole” and someone somewhere has tagged you in a picture. They still have data on you built from people in any picture you were tagged in, their data gets extrapolated to you.

    The ID is so they can sell the data for a higher price because it’s “verified” to be yours. Even tho without it they still 100% know it’s you.

    This isn’t about Facebook getting your ID, it’s just so the people they’ll selling it to pay more.

    There’s a chance a human never looked at OPs Shrek picture, an AI may have just checked it against real name tagged photos and it didn’t match. Even tho OP doesn’t have a Facebook account under their real name.

    Facebook still knows what OP looks like, and almost assuredly knew the burner account was theirs

    Yeah, that’s what’s going to get you.

    Maybe if you loaned/rented them, but not many would go thru that hassle.

    And you’d need your own locked down ecosystem they can’t crack.

    On top of all that, I’m pretty sure even libraries got sued over doing this.

    I remeber someone once tried to stream physical blu rays online to people for a small fee. And that didn’t work out legally either.




  • We’ve known for years that Netanyahu allowed suitcases full of money across the border into Gaza that could only be going to Hamas.

    But him going out and soliciting funding for Hamas…

    That’s a whole nother thing. I know Netanyhu was already likely on the way out before, but I can’t see how the Israelis let him stay in control after this.

    He’s literally the reason all this is happening because the only way his group maintains power is if voters are scared. So he created a reason for them to be scared.


  • A short trimmed beard you have to do the neck and maybe cheekbones, it’s a lot of upkeep.

    I think lots of guys had that type of beard pre-covid, then let it grow out. Once it’s long enough you don’t have to do the neck because it’s hidden by the rest of your beard.

    And some guys never have to do cheeks because it grows in good.

    Like how 20 years ago it was cool for teenagers and 20 somethings to have goatees. It took me a while to realize most were doing it because they couldn’t grow a full beard.

    There’s a lot of variation in facial hair, including where it grows and how thick.


  • Some people’s skin also can’t handle daily trauma from razors.

    Pili multigemini…

    I might have fucked up the order, but it means “multiple twin hairs”. Like, where just one hair should grow out of your skin, you have multiples.

    If you let it just grow, you’re fine. But if you shave it’s very easy for it to be ingrown because the “hole” the hairs come thru was only meant for one hair.

    When I was in the military and had to shave every day it was horrible. I don’t know if shaving makes more grow, but I’d have stubble thicker than mechanical pencil lead, and when I’d pluck it I’d find out it was 3-5 hairs attached to the same “root”. One of those becoming ingrown is a huge hassle.

    With a beard, it’ll just shed normally or come out when I comb it. The problem is when you shave and the hair bunch has to keep pushing thru the skin over and over.

    Obviously not, but considering you’re having difficulty understanding basic rules that exist on every form of social media, there was probably a good reason for the first one.

    Lemmy is the easiest to get away with it, but you keep making similar versions of the same username and immediately talking about how you’re evading bans.

    Like, it’s hard to believe you’re really not able to understand this, which would leave trolling as the only explanation for your behavior




  • Not sure what you’re thinking of but this is the start of the article I guess…

    Palestinian civil defence crews have uncovered a mass grave inside the Nasser Medical Complex in Gaza’s Khan Younis, with 180 bodies recovered so far, Al Jazeera has learned, as Israel has continued bombardment of the devastated coastal enclave for more than six months.

    The discovery on Saturday, and continuing into Sunday, comes after the Israeli military withdrew its troops from the southern city on April 7. Much of the Khan Younis is now in ruins after months of relentless Israeli bombardment and heavy fighting.

    “In the hospital courtyard, civil defence members and paramedics have retrieved 180 bodies buried in this mass grave by the Israeli military. The bodies include elderly women, children and young men,” Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reporting from Khan Younis said on Sunday.

    It would have been about 35 minutes faster to click the link tho


  • Yeah, but the problem is people take it literally when it’s just an update of the analogy for Plato’s cave…

    You’re taking it even more literally and saying if it’s not a direct match, it’s not a simulation.

    Madden is a football simulation, even though it’s not the same as real life football

    It’s not that your thinking deeper than the analogy, it’s the analogy soaring over your head while you claim it doesn’t exist because you’re looking at the ground
