I have a cousin who's vegan and I was legit curious about this, and she literally said exactly that - "the bees can leave if they want", but from what I understand there are other vegans who disagree

There's a video, maybe not my favorite, but I have watched it twice, and it's in the 24 hour range. The one where Breath of the Wild was first 100%'ed in under 24 hours. Really like it bc it's from before the discovery of windbombs (the trick where they launch themselves great distances using the bomb rune), so it's slower, more methodical. It's quite relaxing, but yeah it isn't something to watch in one sitting, even though the video was made in one sitting.

I think a federated version should work....

TW: direct quotes from Winston Churchill

"I hate indians, they are a beastly people with a beastly religion"

When asked about sending food to help with the famine, he said it'd do no good because they "breed like rabbits"

The man was a monster, plain and simple. May he rest in hell, same as Hitler.

It's my go-to for western movies and tv - what do y'all use?

My other goto's:

  1. nyaa.si for anime (most of what I watch is anime anyway ๐Ÿ˜…
  2. fitgirl for video games, if not available search reddit cautiously bc I'm scared of viruses ๐Ÿ˜…

But for tv and such I'm not too too scared of viruses, they'd have to use an exploit in the codec, and usually they just use a .mp4.exe or similar bc they lazy ๐Ÿ˜

There is a trauma in being feared - ask any Muslim who was in the US circa 2001-2008

Not fond of this "both sides" attitude - you don't see women threatening the safety of men: the onus is on men to ensure that women feel safe around them. It's not enough to not hurt a woman, but to ensure the woman is always in a situation where she feels like you aren't a threat. Don't isolate her from a crowd as there is safety in numbers. Be confrontational against men who male her feel unsafe. Keep space so she doesn't have to fear sudden movements from you. Etc etc etc. It's work to navigate in such an environment, but it isn't impossible.

If you want to engage with women on more equal footing, your enemy is the men who are making them feel unsafe, not the women for feeling unsafe. This is the only viable path forward.

Being a straight woman in this day and age is so unfortunate, I feel bad for y'all ngl

Damn, lemmyworld really is becoming a right wing trashpile

Testbed for all sorts of policies!

Things learned:

โœ… Democracy ๐Ÿšซ Slavery ๐Ÿšซ Political machines โœ… Railroads โœ… Splitting up monopolies ๐Ÿšซ Free market healthcare โœ… Cars in low density areas ๐Ÿšซ Cars in high density areas โœ… Buses in high density areas

Maybe the secret is they accumulated a ton of shitty experimental policies! All we have to do to leapfrog them is to simply bring back policies that are known to be shit!

Me vs my ISP (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It's concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you.

Now, your ISP provides your router, which runs their firmware, which (in my case) doesn't even have the option to enable port forwarding.

It gets worse - because ISPs are choosing NATs over IPv6, so even if you install a custom firmware on your router without it getting blacklisted by your ISP, you still can't expose your server to the internet because the NAT refuses to forward traffic your way. They even devise special NAT schemes like symmetric NAT to thwart hole punching.

Basically this all means that I have to purchase my web hosting separately. Or relay all the traffic through an unnecessary third party, introducing a point of failure.

It's frustrating.

I like to control my stuff. I don't like to depend on other people or be in a position where I have to trust someone not to fuck with my shit. Like, if the only thing outside my apartment that mattered to my website was a DNS record, I'd be really happy with that.

Edit: TIL ISPs in the US don't have NATs

Edit 2: OMG so much advice. My knowledge about computers is SO clearly outdated, I have a lot of things to read up on.

Edit 3: There's definitely a CGNAT involved since the WAN ip in the router config is not the same as the one I get when I use a website that echos my IP address. Far as I can tell ~~my devices don't get unique IPv6 addresses either~~. (funnily enough, if I check my IP address on my phone using roaming data, there's no IPv6 address at all). It's a router/modem combo, at least I think since there's only one device in my apartment (maybe there's a modem managing the whole complex or something?). And it doesn't have a bridge mode, except for OTT. Might try plugging my own router into it, but it feels like a waste of time and money from what I'm seeing. Probably best to just host services over a VPN or smth.

Edit 4: Devices do get unique IPv6 addresses, but it's moot since I can't do anything but ping them. I guess it wouldn't be port forwarding but something else that I would have to do that my router doesn't support
