They're too expensive. These pods are designed to run of tracks whose commuter train lines have been abandoned due to low ridership.

Can take awhile, it doesn’t always seem to like being quiet

Big tiddy? How are tits stealthy? She'll be flat as a board. Also, how do you think the "fuel" gets "transferred"?

Lemmy requires you to use ^ before and ^after^ a word for ~this~ to ^work^.

The irony is that in reality, it's reversed: Official Chinese envoys build up 'police stations' to suppress chinese immigrants.

I hope they bill Sony ten times of what they are losing out on now. They need to set a precedent that no other publisher will want to repeat what Sony did.

Du Kommunist!

In Amerika sind die Dems blau und die GOP is rot.

This happens in Europe too. I hope the european agencies are similarly engaged in protecting dissidents. There have been numerously stories as of late about China using their embassy as a 'chinese police station'.

If you get on a Hexbear's bad side, first they hit you with this, immediately followed by this (NSFW). That should tell you enough about what kind of people frequent hexbear.

That line was adressed at Sony, not the players.

Aber wenn Pressefreiheit fast ausschließlich für andere, verwerfliche Zwecke missbraucht wird, dann muss man eigentlich auch mal anfangen zu schauen, inwieweit Einschränkungen Notwendig sein können.

Das ist auch meine Meinung. "Keine Toleranz gegenüber Intoleranten" ist ein guter Leitspruch, "Keine Pressefreiheit für solche, die Freiheiten nehmen wollen" sollte genauso einer sein.

After having spent some time on Lemmy and learning of the intricacies of the different Lemmy instances, I think the landing page for the Lemmyverse could do with some streamlining. I remember that back when I joined, the only information I used to decide on an instance to join was the user count, the signup policy and the instance name. Now, coming from the instance with the best name, I can't say that I've regretted my choice, but for new people looking to join Lemmy, crucial information that would help them join the instance best suited for them is still missing.

To provide that information, I want to suggest the creation of multiple categories, in which instance owners are encouraged to describe their instance. Instances that provide a description for each category are then ranked higher on the join-lemmy.org website.

The following categories would, in my opinion, help new users decide on an instance to join:

Content Policy
This category could describe what kind of content the instance wants to specialize in. Whether that be sports, games, specific sports teams or games, NSFW content, meme content, etc.

Signup Policy
The website already shows whether an application needs to be filled out, but it doesn't show what is expected of the applicant. A category describing what exactly the instance would like to see in their new users would help those users decide, if that instance is for them or not.
As an example, an instance focussed on a certain language could inform users, that they expect an application in that language.

Community creation Policy
Here, instances could describe what rules they have around community creation. Small instances could, for example, clarify in this category, that they would only want to host niche communities without much traction at most. Other servers could specify that they would only want to host unique communities, not copies of or communities closely related to communities already existing on other instances.

Federation Policy
Here instance owners could clarify their stance on what other instances they are willing or not willing to federate with. To give an example, instances could describe their stance on federating with other instances hosting NSFW content, possibly illegal content (lemmy.world and /c/piracy), overly political content, and so on and so forth.

Lastly, some statistics could be added to show the health of the instance: Active user to inactive user ratio, active user to report ratio, active user/report to mod action ratio, community engagement ratio, uptime, server software version and so on.

With these categories, I can say that if I were to join the Lemmyverse today, I'd be able to make a much more informed decision on what instance to join.

Frankreich ist derzeit das einzige EU-Land mit Atomwaffen, seit Großbritannien die EU verlassen hat. Paris hatte anderen EU-Partnern Gespräche über eine europäische atomare Abschreckung angeboten. Lindner betonte, auch Deutschland müsse sich fragen, welchen Beitrag es zu leisten bereit sei. Solange es Nuklearwaffen auf der Welt gebe, werde Europa an einem System der nuklearen Abschreckung festhalten müssen, um nicht schutzlos der Erpressung autoritärer Staaten ausgeliefert zu sein.

I think the analysis done in the video is spot-on and I hope that it finds its way into the mainstream media and to the people in power. The only way to not have the Ukraine war spiral into a blood bath even more than it is now, and threaten to pull Europe and by extention the US into the conflict, is to adequately support Ukraine's military, so they can win.

Seine bisher schärfste Kritik an Israels Vorgehen im Gazastreifen hatte Joe Biden geübt, als keine Kameras oder Mikrofone im Raum waren. Vor Unterstützern seiner demokratischen Partei hatte Biden laut Augenzeugen gesagt, dass nach dem Angriff der Hamas am 7. Oktober der Großteil der Welt hinter Israel gestanden habe.

Aber nun sei Israel dabei, die Unterstützung durch "willkürliche Bombardements" zu verlieren. Die Formulierung sorgte in den USA auch deshalb für Aufsehen, weil willkürliche Bombardements nach internationalem Recht als Kriegsverbrechen gewertet werden können.

Vor allem junge Delegierte üben in der Debatte scharfe Kritik an der Asylpolitik der Ampelregierung. "Es ist unehrlich über Begrenzung zu reden, während die Welt in Flammen steht", sagt Vasili Franco, Delegierter aus Berlin. "Liebe Freundinnen und Freunde, ich bitte Euch. Lasst uns nicht schon auf diesem Parteitag einen Kompromiss mit konservativen Kräften verabschieden", drängt Sophia Pott aus Lübeck.

Welche, das schildert auf eindringliche Weise Außenministerin Annalena Baerbock: "Wenn ich mir vorstelle, es geht um jedes Flüchtlingskind in Thessaloniki, soll ich dann sagen, ich kann leider nicht mitverhandeln, das soll jetzt mein ungarischer Kollege alleine machen? Soll Robert das nächste Mal, wenn er bei der MPK [Ministerpräsidentenkonferenz] sitzt, sagen, ich kann da nicht mitverhandeln, das soll jemand anderes machen?" Baerbock fleht regelrecht ihre Parteifreunde an, den Antrag der Grünen Jugend abzulehnen.

Seit Monaten wird in der Ampelkoalition darüber debattiert, wie sich die Strompreise in Deutschland senken lassen. Bislang drehte sich der Streit vor allem um die Frage, ob ein staatlich subventionierter Industriestrompreis, die Senkung der Stromsteuer oder vielleicht auch beides die richtige Antwort darauf ist. Dass Bundesfinanzminister Christian Lindner jetzt den auf 2030 vorgezogenen Kohleausstieg ins Spiel bringt, ist kein Zufall.

Korsika wird mehr Autonomie versprochen, viele bleiben aber skeptisch.

Die Aussage des Bundeskanzlers, dass russische Kriegsverweigerer Asyl in Deutschland finden werden, gleicht einer Lüge. Vielen Asylanträgern droht die Abschiebung nach dem Dublin-Verfahren.

Or just reddit normies, I am as confused as to what they mean as they are.

A concerned hexbear gets bad tummy aches browsing our instance.

But their pig shit emoji spam is educational, of course!

Too good not to share.

A user laments that apart from this post, a statement made by pacifists in the year 2020, nobody outside russia calls Ukraine a military dictatorship.

How could that be, I wonder.
