Tbf, that’s how it started. The reason why that line exists is because of war and killing and people politically deciding that this line is how they will separate people.

Memes of Production@quokk.au•nobody ever said fuck the fire departmentEnglish
40·2 days agoThe whole “French surrenders” thing is missing context.
My understanding is that the term originated in WW2 when Nazi Germany invaded and France didn’t put up a fight. Conservatives in the USA called them cowards etc but what they didn’t know (like they cared) was that the French have been very effective in war for centuries even before the USA was a thing.
The French knew they were going to lose any war with Germany at this point in the war and relied on their allies to help them out. Surrender was the best possible option for them to save lives.
Anyone who says that the French are weak don’t know shit about their history and don’t know how their alliance has helped the US.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Is Windows FOSS now?English
16·2 days agoNot to be pedantic, not holding copyright ≠ FOSS.
FOSS explicitly means that the developer has a copyright and is explicitly giving a license for people to use it with FOSS provisions.
It would be more accurate to say AI Vibe code is in the public domain.

Technology@lemmy.world•Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras?English
102·3 days agoI wonder if removing the cameras is the best move.
It might be better to let them run but have them watching a TV streaming Disney movies.
Then drop the dime to Disney that they are copying their IP.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Beyond fucked up (CW: sexualizing children)English
38·3 days agoOh this shit is still going on. There were people in the late 90s early 00s that were counting down the days when the Olsen twins would turn 18.
Would not surprise me one bit if there are websites dedicated other child celebrities.

4·3 days agoI didn’t consider the fraud route. You might need to consult an attorney or consider consulting an attorney in the Caribbean to have them get a copy of your marriage certificate.

9·3 days agoCould you get married again in the states?
In effect, from a documentation standpoint you’re not married. Might be the easiest solution to go to the courthouse and fill out bullshit paperwork to get documentation that you’re married.

News@lemmy.world•Salesforce workers outraged after CEO makes joke about ICE watching themEnglish
201·3 days agoYou know what the difference is between a million dollars and a billion dollars?
A billion dollars.
Those who make $200k have more in common with people in poverty than people who are billionaires.
I make good money but I am not under any illusion that a bad accident or a medical issue will wipe out my savings in a heartbeat. Just because I can afford to go on vacation doesn’t mean that I don’t understand what it means to be “working class”.
I am working class and their ally. All you’re doing is intentionally creating a wedge between “well off” people and the poor instead of coalescing together to attack the actual capital class.

News@lemmy.world•Salesforce workers outraged after CEO makes joke about ICE watching themEnglish
552·3 days agoJust because they aren’t at the poverty line doesn’t mean that they aren’t working class. Unless they can live without working, they are the definition of working class.
Don’t get distracted by those who hoard wealth.

71·5 days agoMy understanding is that if your community is not adult content and you aren’t on any adult servers, you won’t need to ID verify. But I suspect it’s only a matter of time before all accounts are required to verify.

LITERALLY in-group/out-group behavior














I’m on the same page. I’m a bit of a wonk and, yeah, politico has a perspective but I wouldn’t call it right wing. Centralist, to an extent.
