With all the Microsoft renaming, I don’t know if Microsoft Teams is a chat app, a project management tool, or some Xbox extension now.


I thought they don’t like politics in football. If they don’t like it, then leave.


Haha! I was going to share this as well!
We used to go to Qdoba, chipotle, Baja fresh and just order pure ingredients! It’s not on the menu, and it was like $2-3. Used to order that, make my own rice, veggies, etc… and feed all my roommates for the same price as a burrito combo.


OP, ignore a lot of these commenters. Remember that Lemmy is international, and does not reflect actual Americans who are stepping up. You’re asking the Internet, many doom scroll then bitch and then repeat and do nothing else.
Remember that Lemmy is still social media - which means it’s unprotected and anybody can read it. You’re not going to find these conversations openly. Because that’s a huge safety risk.
The community groups already exist. Maybe not in small towns, but every city has something. It won’t be called anything like “self-defense”, which is actually harmful to the core message of creating only peaceful protests.
But being involved in the non-violent aspect will help you start to get in the know. If you’re already in self defense groups (everything from martial arts to your local gun range), bring up your interest in activism.
In other words, you won’t find your answer here. And the real answer is face to face with other like-minded individuals in a secure place.


Contrary to popular belief: Going to a protest isn’t the only way to show your dislike. Protesters are the front line.
The back line is support. First aid people. Armed citizens acting as guards. Legal observators. Saboteurs. Tech people to amplify the message. All of these are not at a protest, but assembled through online groups and community events.
Granted, you’ll also see them staged at protests too, but you don’t have to go to one.
You need both lines, and there’s a lot of roles out there.


Reminds me of conservatives who hate gays while going on Grindr.


JD Vance has a Indian wife and half-indian children. And he’s still pushing for racist acts, things that his own wife and kids would be affected by.
Let’s stop pretending like anybody should get a pass for intermingling outside their race.


If we’re doing wishful thinking, I’d love an age and location mechanism.
Theres currently no way to do this with privacy and security in mind. Because it’s just a clusterfuck of issues.
But, again - wishful thinking. It would be cool hell to be able to actually have spaces for specific ages, or specific locations.
All the eurocentric communities forcing the end user to be from europe. Imagine a community for only 40-60yos, or a real teenager community without the creepos.
My city has a forum for each generation (millennials, gen X, etc) and the conversations and chats are lightyears better than anything else. We have RL meetups and BBQs. It’s a real community. Trolls quickly get booted and those who were assholes beg to come back after apologizing.


As much as I want to shit on this meme, I’m kind of happy that a pretty mainstream publication like PC Gamer is saying this.
The more it’s brought up by the mainstream media as an alternative to Windows, the better.


I don’t recall answering any of those questions since I got my passport in the 2000s.


I welcome these maga nuts also supporting the boycott of Chick-fil-A.
Fuck that company for all the millions they contributed to right wing groups who went on anti lgbtqia crusades for the past two decades.
And honestly I don’t care why maga is protesting them. Fuck Chick-fil-A.


For clarity: The Democratic party in the US, based on their talking points, is considered right wing in much of the world. The conservative party in the US, based on their talking points, is considered far right wing in much of the world.
In the US: We have “actual” left wing politicians, who frequently are shouted down and forced to align themselves with Democrats to get any sort of movement.
The two party system works to keep those two teams going.


This is a difficult question because we don’t have an agreed upon baseline of what “living” looks like worldwide.
Some countries may say, “living a long life.” Other countries may say, “And a roof over your head.” And Other countries may say, “That and a yearly vacation.”
Also, it’s sad to say that million dollars isn’t even “dick around” money anymore. My wife’s retired grandparents retired on a million at age 70. They’re living okay, very modestly at age 90. Medicine is fucking expensive, hip surgeries, paying for physical therapy, etc. No brand new cars or fancy trips. Just coupon clipping and finding lunch deals.


I have five of them near me and yeah.
I also just searched and found out that apparently there’s Bitcoin ATMs as well? Can’t say I’ve seen them.


Well damn.
2.2 lbs (1kg) can cost roughly $1,500 - $6,000.

I recall seeing signs of an ounce being sold as low as $40, (making it $640 a lb) which is probably terrible quality.
If the question is: “I am trying to make everyone in my household hallucinate, whats the cheapest thing I can do?”, now we’re having fun.


Wait people walk for mental health, and not to crop dust their neighborhood?
I guess to operate a open internet, we have to allow even the nutcases internet.
