Why the down votes ?
The deep-pocketed tech industry of Silicon Valley has historically voted for Democrats. But in the last month, a cadre of tech executives has risen up for Donald Trump, both on the grounds that he will be friendlier to the industry and that President Joe Biden was unfit to serve a second term.
A clear copy of an article from The Onion right ? Right ?
I could be wrong and that could be the most legit photo in the world. It just feels very unlikely to me.
Papers in my country reported that a sports photographer said about the photo : “Chance of 1 in a million. Almost impossible”. Other articles mentioned the possibility of a small animal flying instead of a bullet.
Right. Not just that, USA is allowed to invade the Netherlands, where The Hague is located, to protect American officials and military personnel from prosecution or rescue them from custody.

The example you are giving about fighting back turned out to be in your favor.
But things could have gone wrong, especially when a whole group would have backed the other guy.
And by that you are sort of advocating a survival of the fittest which is maybe not a good idea
when you are small and timid versus some strong guy.
I believe it is not wrong to involve school personnel when bullying happens.
In Europe anti bullying policies were implemented years ago. I remember reading that in newspapers.
Here is an example of a school which has anti-bullying policy :

The US should improve treatment of mental health issues.
The US should recover public confidence in its political system.The things you have suggested are just distractions away from these two points and won’t fix anything.
Your point about mental health issues is about the victim being bullied or being avoided by others I guess ?
If I refuse to buy Nike shoes like all others, and if I decide to wear all black clothes with heavy metal shirts and I prefer to read books rather than talk loud and the rest of my class mates avoid me for reasons, does that mean I need to get therapy ?
Hell, no. Don’t put the responsibility on victims to help their bullies/abusers.
I see. In Europe things are different.

Also, it’s not always a clear cut bully/victim dynamic. My school had a loner gun-loving asocial student. He probably thought he was bullied. In reality he made people, especially the girls, super uncomfortable and he was avoided. No one really made fun of him, never physically attacked him, never pulled pranks on him, just avoided him. Not inviting his friendship is not bullying. He needed professional help.
Forcing me, for example, to talk to him and pretend to be his friend would have been bad for both of us. He needed counseling/therapy, which I was not and still am not qualified to provide, and I needed safe friends I could trust.
Okay. That is a lone wolf example, it is not about active bullying.
I consider bullying to be violent in general.
Even words can be damaging for some people.
The whole “boys don’t cry” is a tragedy in my opinion and has done a lot of emotional damage already.
And reading this today https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_L._Trump#Personal_life I would not be at all
surprised if Donald Trump would benefit from long time therapy.
Lemmy like sites :
Europe, who is already seeing far right insurgencies due to a few immigrants?
A few immigrants ? Remember that Europe got a whole bunch of refugees from Ukraine to look after.
And the USA is huge compared to Europe, especially to some small countries in Europe like Belgium, Holland.
The problem of the rise of far-right is more complex.
I’d like to second that. When it comes to “far-right boiling point” several countries in Europe look like a breeze compared to Project 2025 minded US. Far right is on the rise in Western-Europe but things are not so bad yet. Not sure about the specific gay friendliness per country but countries like Germany (except the East and part of the South), Portugal, Spain, Ireland, Holland, Belgium, France could be interesting to read more about. Portugal actually had its borders wide open for some time for immigrants to work and live there but they now have some (but not so bad?) restrictions for non-EU citizens.
Probably Right-to-left script like with Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian.
Second time today I see a post on Lemmy pointing to Reddit, and not even old Reddit :(
Good that you are raising the outrage fatigue. At the same time I’d like to highlight that you are asking your question in the Fediverse which is probably a Western dominant world and it also depends who you are talking to in real life. The west has seen the Covid-19 pandemic which was, I’m sure, a shocker to a lot of people (though not everyone will admit that), and I am sure that the huge popularity of smart phone scrolling has made people change their attitude more indifferent. There is surely more to this like the invasion in Ukraine and the resulting inflation, and more “flex” work in many countries. Have a look at this image, which also shows why people have less time to care about more than their own problems : https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/112/433/665/876/256/493/original/b858379a791385c9.jpg (Image posted in a post by a Unconditional Universal #BasicIncome (UBI) advocate) tl;dr Governments and companies and the super rich will keep people with lower income busy worrying about their own problems.
Am I overlooking something ? Configure your TV to get IP address and DNS settings via DHCP from your pi-hole WiFi access point. If you are worried about a DHCP conflict, just make sure that the IP range that both DHCP servers hand out have a different range, and check whether your devices always got the same IP address before, and adjust the ranges accordingly.
In some open source projects there is a lot of leeching and little contributions.
In 2020 the sole developer of Invidious stepped away from development because of burn out. https://omar.yt/posts/stepping-away-from-open-source
Also in 2020 developer Raymond Hill archived the uMatrix browser add-on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24532973
I will never hand over development to whoever, I had my lesson in the past – I wouldn’t like that someone would turn the project into something I never intended it to become (monetization, feature bloat, etc.). At most I would archive the project and whoever is free to fork under a new name. For now I resisted doing this, so people will have to be patient for new stable release.
What would actually help is that people help to completely investigate existing issues instead of keep asking me to add yet more features. Turns out people willing to step in the code to investigate and pinpoint exactly where is an issue (or that there is no issue) is incredibly rare.
Is this where the source code is supposed to be ? https://github.com/ProtonMail/inbox-desktop
It is not about high time to get Ellen Musk behind bars and give all their belongings to the poor ?
