I'm not sure which version of pict-rs it is. The Yunohost package is based on Lemmy 19.11, so I presume the pict-rs version is whichever one normally ships with that. Looking through lemmy-ynh/conf/pict-rs.toml, I see a commented reference to version 0.4.1.
How long until you retire? If you've still got another thirty to forty years of wage slavery ahead of you then don't worry about it. Just keep contributing and make sure to get all of your employer's match, if any.
I didn't even consider that, but yes if votes can't be private then it's bad to pretend that they are. It looks like there's been some debate on the topic, but the decision was apparently to keep pretending.
Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought the issue was with the follower approval feature. Apparently on Mastodon, users have the option to review all prospective followers. With this setting enabled, no one is supposed to be able to just follow your account with a click. You have to approve each one. Pixelfed wasn't honoring this setting. I think it's a bad feature that gives anyone who uses it a false sense of security.
Part of what makes a lynching a lynching is subversion of the criminal justice process and yes that probably often involved cops joining the lynch mob. However, these Israeli settlers aren't subverting anything. They are not vigilantes. They are attacking and terrorizing Palestinians without any pretext of justice.
The problem is this case is that 'a lynching' implies that the mob is going against the authorities, which is absolutely not the case when it comes to settler violence. The Israeli soldiers are there to protect and facilitate the settlers in their attacks against Palestinians. Under no circumstances does the IDF deserve the benefit of the doubt and the article makes it clear that they are the ones who abducted Hamdan anyway.
It would be interesting to see these stats in terms of the (sub)classes of lumpenproletariat, proletariat, petite bourgeoisie, and bourgeoisie. The "middle class" definition isn't useless, but it elides the fact that its members have far less in common with the bourgeoisie than anyone else.
China already gets a lot of (undeserved) bad press. An experiment breaching containment and causing a pandemic is bad for scientific research everywhere.
Okay, sure, but to what end? It's not clear to me how accusations of an accidental release are bad for China. Is the purpose actually to cover up intentional sabotage by an anti-China entity? It's not clear to me either who it helps or hurts for the COVID-19 outbreak to have been a completely natural occurrence.
Trillbilly Worker's Party - Kentucky-centric Marxist jokers hanging out. They always know how to put a smile on my face, even if they're talking about bleak stuff.
Fun City - Well produced live role playing of Shadowrun. The game is a few years in and I am just invested.
ALAB - Lawyers talking shit. They're funny and I like learning about interesting cases. One of the characters they covered actually sued them and settled for an interview on the show.
Desert Oracle Radio - Joshua Tree-centric paranormal stuff. Good for an old X-Files head like me.
I don't have any bookmarked, but I did a quick search and found this one from 2023, which looks at the available data and circumstances to argue that the lab leak hypothesis is stronger than the wet market one. I'm not aware of any evidence that has been published that definitively proves or disproves either.
People seem to have a stronger aversion to the lab leak hypothesis, which I don't understand. To me it seems like the simplest, most benign explanation. However, it does open up the possibility of sabotage. Maybe that's the issue.
So, if I remove a community, does it save my instance from any work or storage related to getting new posts and whatnot from that community?
Food grade lubricant?
We've got to do something about these mods, folks.

Most of the violence and oppression gets exported, so it's probably best to just sit tight here in the heart of the empire.
Vance himself was a DEI student at Yale. Hypocrisy doesn't matter.

What are "end-of-life batteries" in this case? Is the plan to reuse used batteries that are no longer fit for automotive service?

You should consider how using the wrong words for things might be playing into the hands of Zionists. Maybe you are.

Means, motive, lack of scruples: it's all there.
I wonder if proof of sabotage actually exists, but whoever has it is withholding it from the public for blackmail.
