dgdftto World News•Israeli police are violently suppressing our growing anti-war protestsEnglish243·1 day agoWhat are you basing that on?
The linked article roundly suggests that the protestors in question are staunchly anti-war and largely a non-zionist cohort.
From the outset, we protested because the consequences of this unlawful war were clear. It threatened to ignite a regional conflict that would claim countless civilian lives across the Middle East. To us, its stated objectives echoed past catastrophic Western attempts at regime change that produced nothing but prolonged instability and devastation.
Prominent figures of the Zionist left like Yair Golan, and members of anti-government protest groups like “Brothers and Sisters in Arms” (who previously declared their refusal to show up for reserve duty in protest of Netanyahu’s judicial overhaul) failed to show up for a simple reason: They do not oppose the war. The sobering reality is that, beyond a handful of Palestinian and non-Zionist Jewish MKs, there is no genuine parliamentary opposition to the war.
Honestly, I’m all for it and wish the dems had been doing it even more.
It’s not about success at this point; it’s about making it resolutely clear through the voting record which members of congress are seditious traitors abrogating their oath of office. Makes it much easier for the Nuremburg II lawyers, in other words, if/when a future reckoning happens.
Technically that’s a bootsplash, which also works better for branding purposes.
Y’all sleeping on black soldier flies.
They’re copycats that look like mud daubbers, but have no ability to sting or bite. They don’t readily transmit human diseases, and they compete with noxious species like house flies and roaches. Present in most places across the globe.
Their larvae are the most-efficient known converts of input biomass to output protein, they can compost most household foods quite easily, and they’re an excellent animal feed.
dgdftto politics •Journalist detained for booing Trump at Kennedy Center 'Chicago' performanceEnglish481·4 days agoHe addresses that directly FWIW
Ramirez, who is of Cuban heritage and worked as an anchor on Sinclair’s national evening newscast, said his instinct to go public was a professional reflex. “Journalism is a vocation, not just a job,” he told the Blade. “The Kennedy Center is a federally funded cultural institution, and being questioned about speech related to the president in that setting felt like something the public should know about.”
He said the presence of the White House press pool made clear the appearance was a managed media moment. “It was very clearly about protection — whether protecting the president from visible dissent, or his image before the media present. There was no disruption. Simply expressing dissent in a public, cultural space drew the attention of security.”
dgdftto HistoryArtifacts@piefed.social•Ornate bead, Byzantine Empire, ~5th century AD?English4·4 days agoAnyone able to speak more to the material? I’ve never seen stucco used like this and I’m intrigued.
By far the most popular and prolific flat earther
Honestly tragic to find out this wasn’t an ironic Jon Lajoie post.
dgdftto History Memes@piefed.social•"Okay, baldy, you've got until the tide comes in. Make your case for this uber-metal man-god."English29·5 days agoObligatory shoutout to the anime Vinland Saga, which explores the Christianization of viking culture as one of its main themes, and has an absurd amount of effort on display in terms of historical accuracy.
My dude, you’ve fallen for a cult of personality.
I just refreshed my memory from the KYM dogtober page and both those people are mentioned once, offhand. What else would I know them from?
I did see a video of Hasan dragging his other dog by the tail and yanking it around. Did those other streamers make him do that?
I have no idea who those other streamers are. But I’ve watched several hours of Hasan on his own merit, and that fella is a trog all the way through: The Rogan/Asmongold comparisons are right on the money.
Now sit in your place.
Bad dog. No barking.
Put your shock collar back on and sit in place quietly like a good Hasan fan, @[email protected].
Seconding draw.io as the swiss-army-knife that’ll do this and more…
But honorable mention to graphviz if you want dead-simple, low-friction charts: https://zackees.github.io/webgraphviz/
dgdftto Ask Lemmy•What do you think is the modern day equivalent to asbestos in 1960?English7·8 days agoYou’re totally on the money with your core thesis about epidemiological studies here, and I agree processed meats as a standalone variable are likely a massively overplayed factor in CRC research.
When it comes to the more general claims in the GP comment though, re: processed food and low fiber, there are literally hundreds of independent studies at different levels all pointing in similar directions. It’s pretty incontrovertible at this point.
See any recent review on CRC etiology for reference, e.g.: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Elroy-Weledji/publication/377724506_Clinics_in_Oncology_The_Etiology_and_Pathogenesis_of_Colorectal_Cancer_OPEN_ACCESS/links/65b3f83e79007454973be66e/Clinics-in-Oncology-The-Etiology-and-Pathogenesis-of-Colorectal-Cancer-OPEN-ACCESS.pdf
I haven’t done any real labwork in about a decade, so probably a dumb question, but wouldn’t repeat distillation be a viable option for a control like that? Or are you suggesting the gloves might’ve been the culprit?
I know you’ll always get some nanoplastics carried over through aerosol droplets able to survive, but I’d naively expect you could still get a few orders of magnitude cleaner than the ordinary DI tap.
dgdftto Fediverse vs Disinformation@lemmy.dbzer0.com•NYT Covers Iran War With No Reporters in IranEnglish4·9 days agoI don’t think any US journalists are gonna be granted the visa for that lol. Reuters has boots on the ground though.

Just adding my two cents as a happy user of several years: I vastly prefer its results to ddg/google, I kinda forgot the AI stuff existed since I turned it off and it’s stayed off, and I never hit the quota when I was on the limited plan.
The real killer feature is the ability to downrank or block spammy sites IME (pinterest, fandom, etc.).
