You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: Extreme wealth inequality is baked in to the system
10·22 days agoWell yes, but have you tried just throwing the board across the room when that one person gets massively ahead and you land on Pacific avenue with a hotel on it?

Technology@lemmy.world•Stephen Colbert says CBS didn't air Rep. James Talarico interview out of fear of FCCEnglish
8·25 days agoHe’s pretty much embraced this. It’s kind of funny. His network ad reads for other CBS shows are literally “[name of show], watch it or don’t, I don’t care. I leave in may” lol
This quote is bothering me. I’ve been seeing it all over for the past few days, even before Bondi’s hearing, and I literally can’t find a single government official that said it. Let alone Pam Bondi.
I know it’s not the first time it’s happened but it’s kind of wild that someone can just make something up and so many people just latch onto it and run with it without it even being a thing. There were so many other hilariously dumbass quotes from Bondi’s hearing to take but people choose a made up one instead.

Technology@lemmy.world•I want a phone I can actually fix, and Fairphone’s record growth shows the world does tooEnglish
45·1 month agoI used to run a small electronics repair business and you are 1 billion percent correct. Slowly watching things over the years become unrepairable was just such an obvious business decision for profit over customer satisfaction. There is absolutely no reason to make those changes unless you have a profit driven motive. So so so many electronics used to be like the fairphone your mom has. Pop it open, take out what’s broke, replace it with some OEM or 3rd party part you bought for like 2 dollars and you’re all set. It’s so frustrating nowadays with how purposefully difficult manufacturers make any repairability. Can’t even change a damn battery in your phone now! lol
I can’t help but feel like it’s also in part because a good amount of folks are just… as delicately as I can put it… the kind of people that pick up a fork to eat a bowl of soup.
The rationale I have heard from tons and tons of voters just makes absolutely no god damn sense at all. There’s of course mass manipulation and all that but goodness gracious, the complete lack of critical thinking skills is astounding.

Technology@lemmy.world•'No One Should Have a Copyright on Vance Being Booed': Video From Olympics Blocked on XEnglish
9·1 month agoIt’s all about mic placement. Ive had the good fortune to play sports on live tv in front of large crowds a good amount and it’s not uncommon at all for the crowd sound on the broadcast to be way different than in person. That being said, I’d bet there’s a different broadcast from a different country where you can totally hear the boos.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Man posts his incorrect opinion online
21·1 month agoI’m not the person you asked but this whole thread is wild to me. I’ve lived in 9 different states including CA and I can only remember like 2 homes that wore shoes inside and they were super Asian that had house slippers/shoes they would put on. Aside from special occasions I have literally never seen anyone just walk inside with shoes on and not take them off. Y’all people are dirty lol

Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla's 'unsupervised' Robotaxis vanish a week after pre-earnings announcementEnglish
10·1 month agoEarlier than that it’s absolutely insane that anyone believes anything this dunce says now.
Kinda the hallmark right? You can also apply socialists to all the people collecting social security every month and everyone that uses Medicare or started a a GoFundMe for a huge medical bill or whatever. But call them out on that and they’ll blow a gasket. Most of them are hipocrites all the way down

81·2 months agoDudes last words were apparently “don’t touch her” to the ice agent that shoved two women to the ground, and then “are you okay?” To one of the women. If that doesn’t scream terrorist I don’t know what does.

161·2 months agoI saw this posted on another thread and think it’s a fantastic summary. I wish they had video links or gifs instead of stills but all if this is pretty easy to find. This is indefensible.

News@lemmy.world•Chilling Video Shows Trump's ICE Agents Shooting & Killing Man In Minneapolis
6·2 months agoAnd they maced him before that. This dude was virtually incapable of posing a threat. The DHS narrative is insane. He was fucking trying to help two women being shoved around by ice lol. Who can watch this and not see the diabolical lies?

News@lemmy.world•Video appears to show new ICE shooting in Minneapolis
10·2 months agoWell yeah… But what’s not pictured here is the bazooka the terrorist was holding. I saw it. I saw it with my own eyes. The guy drove his tank right up to those ice agents, got out with his bazooka and was gonna take em all out. It’s as clear as day.

News@lemmy.world•Live: Man shot by federal agent in south Minneapolis this morning, witnesses say
14·2 months agoThere’s footage of pretty much all of that. He’s talking to ice agents holding his phone. He’s then pushed around. Another protestor is also pushed. He moves toward that protestor who is on the ground. They swarm him and the rest is history.

News@lemmy.world•Live: Man shot by federal agent in south Minneapolis this morning, witnesses say
8·2 months agoFrom what I understand, the water bottle was a mace canister. Some reports were saying the guy was reaching for it to use as a weapon but I don’t see that. It is then kicked away. Also, pay attention to the agent in the gray jacket. He walks up a bit late, and disarms the victim by pulling the (holstered) pistol from his waistband. He then runs away holding the weapon as the victim is shot. Like a dozen times.

News@lemmy.world•Live: Man shot by federal agent in south Minneapolis this morning, witnesses say
7·2 months agoI’m trying really hard to see how this could be anything else than a straight up execution. It’s hard to see any way that dude could be threatening the life of anyone here. He’s shot on his knees with his hands down looking away from the shooter (granted the footage we have here it’s kind of hard to tell just cause there’s so many people). There’s footage of him talking to the agents before just holding his phone to record and then they start shoving him. There’s also 8 bajillion agents beating the shit out of him right before. The woman’s footage from the other side of this will show a ton if she was recording.
Anyways, I look forward to hearing how this heroic agent saved the lives of all his fellow warriors during this altercation. Hope the agent recovers from the assault safely and quickly in the hospital…
Edit: few things, someone pointed out the agent in the grey coat disarms the victim and runs away with his weapon before he’s killed which I did not see at first.
Also, second lady’s footage is now out and it doesn’t show anything different than a bunch of thugs beating the shit out of this guy and then killing him.
Mog_fanatic@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Charlie Kirk was noticeably absent on MLK Jr. Fascinating.English
6·2 months agoMaybe in this instance but don’t get confused, Kirk has said many times MLK is a bad person and what he did was terrible. There’s tons more if you just go looking but just for starters he said:
“MLK was awful. OK? He’s not a good person. He said one good thing he actually didn’t believe. Go research MLK, you should go research him.”
When asked if it was true that when he was younger, he used to describe MLK as a hero and a civil rights icon, he responded simply:
“That’s true, and I used to be wrong.”
Regarding the Civil Rights Act that MLK famously pushed so hard for:
“We made a huge mistake when we passed the Civil Rights Act in the mid-1960s.”
Again this is just a bit. Go digging and you’ll find much much more.

politics @lemmy.world•White House: Turns Out People Think ICE Kinda Sucks
10·2 months agoI don’t even know what the narrative any more. For a long time the affordability thing was a hoax. Then it wasn’t a hoax but they already solved it. Now they’re back to working on it?





I remember the first time someone ever played royal assassin against me I thought it was so cheap and then the dude busted out visara the dreadful and I nearly crapped myself lol.
