From a philosophical perspective, I find it quite difficult to measure a person’s evilness objectively.
Assuming a person is born evil due to their genetic material, is it then actually their fault? Shouldn’t that be considered rather as a medical condition?
Assuming a person is not born evil, but they turned evil due to outer influencing factors (parents, society, economic situation, luck, bad luck…), is it then actually their fault? Or are the outer factors the ones to blame in such a case?
I agree to the ‘the crack was always there’ statement. But personally I think that all of us humans naturally have this crack. Given the right parameters, this crack can heal to a level where it’s barely notable. But under less optimal conditions I guess more or less every human can turn (be turned) into a monster.
In terms of billionaires my opinion is that a) we should implement measures to avoid them in the first place and b) find ways to take away their power.
But other than that I would prefer a way to heal their (often abnormal) crack and try to make them again valuable members of society again. Revenge and punishment (especially death penalty) should never be the focus of corrective measures, no matter the crime or misdemeanour.


I think the unfortunate truth is that many non-evil people would be just as evil if given the opportunity. Or to frame it slightly different: I believe that too much money and/or power is what turns most people evil over time.
The Lemmy picture is blue/black for me while Wikipedia is white/gold. Is it the same picture? Or is because Lemmy fully supports dark mode while my browser doesn’t?


It’s still there, give it another go. ;)
Zip disks were originally launched with capacities of 100 MB, then 250 MB, and finally 750 MB.
Congrats, you win! 🥳
Maybe it’s a super disk LS-240. They were up 240 MB.

But is there an advantage on artificially limiting your battery to 60% rather than charging to 100% and having 40% degradation at the end of the lifetime? In the second scenario I start at 100% capacity that slowly gets lower and lower whereas in the first scenario I have only 60% from the start and still some (although much less) degradation.


No source will be ever completely free of a bias, but Wikipedia is still way more reputable than the two sources linked here.
Wikipedia has plenty of critical articles on what Israel is doing / has been doing in the past: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_war_crimes


Looking at… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_East_Monitor … that source also doesn’t seem too objective to me TBH.
Again: I’m not saying that the original article is wrong. I just say that claims by any news outlet that a) isn’t too popular or b) that has a strong and well-documented bias in one direction must be questioned until proven right.
And MEMO, according to Wikipedia, has a long history of pro Hamas propaganda back until 2009, long before the current war even started.


Really not sure if this is a reputable news source. Never heard of this website and as others mentioned here, there seem to be no reports on this topic in the bigger general press outlets.
With reputable sources I don’t necessarily mean western media, but also e.g. Al Jazeera doesn’t seem to report on this topic. Which would be huge if true.
ABC Australia reported that children mistook unexploded bombs for toys: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10-31/unexploded-ordinance-israel-ibombs-gaza-clearance-war-remnants/105937500
That’s still heartbreaking and horrible, but quite a different story than Israel explicitly placing ecplosives disguised as toys.
If one of you found further proofs, I’d be happy if you could share some links.
You can just make sorbet from fruits without causing harm to innocent coconuts.


I think chaotic instances without a clear focus are superior in terms of a stable fediverse. If you have a ‘main’ instance for programming stuff, queer topics, German content etc. you’re always at risk that the instance goes down and all content and communities die along.
Instances going down is a realistic scenario. Hacking / DDOS attacks, government takedown requests, copyright issues, hosting issues, admins losing interest… The more distributed certain topics are across instances, the more resilent they are against all these vectors.


In before all life going extinct due to a massive drought.
I don’t know if that"s indeed the origin, but Gnu is the German name for a wildebeest. So my assumption is that the logo does not depict a goat but a wildebeest.

You only listed things she doesn’t wan’t to do with you. Are there other activities she enjoys doing together and do you enjoy these things as well? Like do you hang out with each other in person / at home or is she avoiding contact in general? Would you both enjoy to intensify these kind of activities? Are you both intested to find new activities that you can both find fulfillment together in like hiking, sewing, reading etc.?
IMO there are sufficient search engines to find products in online shops, to check availability, compare prices etc.
I see the main selling point of Amazon in the huge assortment (you can get everything in one place without shipping fees), the user ratings (although the quality massively declined during the last years) and the fast delivery. I’m boycotting them for around one year now and everytime I need to order a strange combination of things I’m getting reminded how convenient it used to be. I don’t intend to order there again, but I definitely need much longer to buy stuff now.


Three Wi-Fi routers are placed in a room.
I’d be interested to know how well this works if there aren’t 3 (!) hotspots in 1 (!) room. If that is a hard requirement for it to work accurately, I don’t see many applications for this technology. At least not in its current version.
I consider myself pretty left (at least in comparison to the average German), but that lifestyle sounds quite tempting to me. I’d skip chicken though.
