the project 2025 stuff has felt far away until now but calling it the department of government efficiency is actually terrifying, it sounds like something you'd hear under nazi germany

edit: I looked into it more and it seems to just be about the government spending/budget but it's annoyingly unspecific, makes me wonder what they're gonna cut first

it might have no games but at least the scalpers are also losing

Understood, I'll edit it now.

This is none of the domains mentioned in the article, and as far as I know this site was only modified yesterday.

This image has also been floating around for a while, but I don't know how often the FBI reuses target-specific images.

Is the post description bugged out? I see a lot of comments mentioning things that are already mentioned in it.

Here's the post description, in case it is bugging outThe other domains are still online, though z-library has yet to respond

I've seen this 'z-library seized' image shared around much prior to this, but I couldn't find the source

It's unlikely that this was actually done by the FBI

That's why I keep far from those waters.

This probably varies significantly place-to-place, all the kids in my neighborhood this year rang my doorbell fine.

stuff like this is why I have ml and hexbear in my blocklist, they don't deserve my traffic

 

if that even is your real name!

featuring lines such as "piracy is almost not the right answer"

 

you don't have to tell me information about why Rui's drive is gone, I just googled it because I forgot their name (I thought it was Anadius' drive at first)

 

This reminds me of Tom Scott's excellent video on electronic voting machines, where he mentioned that the system for counting votes needs to be easily understandable to the average person so that they can adequately trust it.

 

I noticed today that my caffeine tolerance seems to be really low while recovering from a tonsillectomy, is this plausible? What about other surgeries?

I remember hearing a while back about mouth tissues absorbing chemicals very readily.

both popups found on the same page (annies website, any product page)

 

pixeldrain is also one of the least sketchy download sites (that are commonly used)

they have a lemmy instance as well but I don't know if they know about all the piracy going on

 

I actually bought ultrakill but now I have an even bigger respect for the chad that is Hakita

This is no shade against uncle dane or jontohil2, this is probably just youtube's fault

here's what shows up if I click on the video

 

I've heard this sentiment that it is immoral a lot on the internet, and I would like to hear more about it. It feels intuitively correct to me, but I would like to hear the reasoning behind it.

Examples to further the title's meaning

  • Calling someone 'queer' to mean they are weird, but not in a way intended as disparaging to those who are LGBT(Q+).

Not Examples

Discussion questions:

  • How does this factor into meanings of words fading away?
    • Does it still pack the same "punch" after it no longer is commonly used as a pejorative?
      • If not, at what point is it generally considered okay to use?
  • How does this differ/compare with reclamation?

Some potential reasoning that I've thought of on my own, feel free to discuss.

  • Bad actors can piggyback off of the use as a negative to help condemn the original target group.
  • It may directly harm the group, by them (also knowing the original context) coming into contact with it and causing/enabling self-hate.
    • This may apply irregardless of if they know it was intended as non-disparaging to them or not, but this is just speculation based off of my similar experiences.

I apologize for any personal bias within this comment, I tried my best to limit it but I am fallible.

Though I would like a discussion in the comments, please refrain from insults and inflammatory statements towards your fellow lemmings, despite the hot topic. /srs
