People on Lemmy are just as bad.

Wind turbines? Solar thermal? Nuclear in exchange for all of those Bitcoins, perhaps?

I mean, fair, but still. People should push them to go green.

You can get solar panels for like $100-$200 on Amazon right now. Nice ones. The price of them dropped like a fucking rock since China got involved.

I agree with you. That still means Bitcoin is on the hook though.

You’d think with all of the money they’re pulling in, they’d invest in solar panels or something to lower their overhead.

Or am I making the mistake of approaching the situation with common sense?

I question this idea that violence should only be viewed through a lens of who is superior to the other. Morality is not about being better. It’s about reducing suffering in the world. And your opponents think nonviolence simply doesn’t accomplish that, and in this case I don’t blame them.

It’s not hypocrisy, it’s their self-interest. They have a political agenda and are spending their lives doing what they can to enforce it, and that means helping their faction gain a foothold into every aspect of public life, especially raising children which they have said emphatically non-stop is all about forcing younger people who don’t have the ability to reject them logically to adopt their beliefs. They only care about making more Christians and shutting out enemies of what they think constitutes Christianity, especially the LGBTQ+ community.

They’re being entirely consistent in that light.

It wouldn’t have. The American Revolution inspired revolutions in 60 other countries, including the French, Haitian and Mexican revolutions, and it’s what helped kickstart modern-day democracy in much of the world for that fact. Had the U.S. lost, it would have forever cemented the idea that the crown is all-powerful, beyond reproach, and the only way to get anything in life is to kiss the ring.

No matter how evil the U.S. turned out to be, the way it began will always be its true importance imo.

Deep comment trees are bugging out and either duplicating previously displayed comments or loading forever, not loading up the comments I’m trying to see. Can any admin contact the Lemmy dev team and ask them to fix it?

They’d better keep everything in the NSO store

You’re never supposed to use pixels in CSS anyway; you should bare minimum use percentages to account for different screen sizes to make the designs responsive and not look terrible on different screen sizes.

Unironically it’s probably our only hope to save ourselves and nature itself, or what will be left of it if predictions pan out.

Jail is much less humane than the death penalty, even for someone wrongfully convicted imo.

It’s amazing how positive solutions never come to the minds of anyone who talks about this.

Human expansion into space is a likely outcome too. Haven’t you considered that?

So how can we continue to pretend we have rights when these “rights” can be taken away from us at any time, on the whim of an evil police officer or judge or DA, and we are turned into chattel slaves when they do? We don’t seriously have rights if we actually can be legally turned into chattel slaves at any time for any reason.

It’s strange how they almost never follow the no-excessive-bail requirement and nobody bats an eye.

Jail is a terrible idea and is inherently inhumane. We can punish people in better ways. Jail never should have been allowed to become a thing.

The one thing we couldn’t spin up though are core services that I mentioned - banking, healthcare, government sites, etc.

🤔 Actually, if we banded together and had enough people with the know-how and willpower, we could in principle open up our own credit union. Credit unions are alternatives to banks and are specifically designed for shit like this. Just as there are teachers’ and firefighters’ credit unions, so too could there be one for, say, us Lemmonades.
