Orcas increasingly take interest in smaller yachts and boats there. This happened several times before in that area. It feels like they have had a taste of what's inside that floating can once and they liked it.
What you said probably makes sense within the paradigm of Kremlin's propaganda. But in the real world it's just a pile of word garbage.
Putin announced two goals: demilitarization and denazification. If demilitarization is complete they will complete denazification by removing Russian Army from all the occupied territories of Ukraine. Another job well done, Putin!
A group of U.N. experts said on Thursday they had written to Moscow raising concerns about the use of torture by Russian military forces on Ukrainian civilians and prisoners of war.
*While torture allegations have previously been levelled against both sides in the 15-month conflict, the team of U.N. independent experts said Russian forces' methods may be "state-endorsed". * The consistency and methods of alleged torture suggested "a level of coordination, planning and organisation, as well as the direct authorisation, deliberate policy or official tolerance from superior authorities", according to U.N. Special Rapporteur on Torture Alice Jill Edwards, who sent the letter on 12 June alongside several other independent experts.
That's an obvious irony. It's not meant literally. But posts criticizing CCP are being deleted with a strange comment "orientalism" which I personally never came across before.
I remember reading a post on lemmy.ml today where several instances have been defederated for "loose registration process". Lemmy.world was among them. But of course I can't find it again, so I might have gotten something wrong or just someone posting BS.
I feel a bit more reassured that I am safe here. I will check out the CLI tools for ActivityPub, thank you for pointing me in this direction.
Someone mentioned to check out what admins are writing about themselves, what communities they are in to get a gist of a possible leaning of an instance. That turned out to be a helpful tip if you check out the lemmy.ml admins.
Thank you for your kind reply. I have seen that list already. Two points:
Lemmy.ml although listed has defederated Lemmy.world
There are mastodon instances, but I fail to see what they provide to Lemmy or vice versa.
Where am I?
A refugee from reddit like a lot of others I guess. I registered to .world because it was open and .ml was kinda full. Now as the dust of mass migration starts to settle the leanings of different lemmy instances are becoming clearer. The fact that lemmygrad is just straight out batshit /r/Donald was pretty obvious right away. The fact that .ml passes downvotes to the CCP social score system was not. Federation starts to dissolve into islands of let's call them "interests". Two questions come to mind:
- Is there an overview of what instance is federated with what instance? A reason for defederation would be nice too.
- Is there one place where I can check moderation policy for this particular instance? Two of the instances I came across turned out to have "leanings" as already mentioned. May I cautiously ask what "leaning" if applicable I might encounter here?
Like it wasn't a mess before the Americans turned up.
I second Mint with XFCE. I have been using it for a decade and since I'm family tech support guy I installed it on all the PCs I have to support including some used for watching TV and YouTube high end Thinkpads, cheap Laptops used for school. It stays out of my way and just works. Of course there are issues here and there, but it was most solid distro for me. The ease of upgrade is stunning, dealing with Ubuntu servers an upgrade is almost always a new install and data migration, with Mint upgrading feels easy and fun.
