Images of a modest middle class vacation
FBI: this should make you feel bad, that modest middle class vacation is at the cost of the publishing company CEO’s second yacht being smaller than he promised his children. It doesn’t even have a helipad!
The joke is that a clueless American signed up for the wrong IRA but end up agreeing with the anti-British rhetoric
Man I hate what EA did to the PvZ franchise after the initial success. Such potential
.world pre-emptively blocked them (twice) because they’re nerds they’re hosted in the EU and they thought they’d get in trouble by association for being federated with instances that promotes discussion of something illegal in their physical server’s jurisdiction. They had a lot of traffic. The db0 comm is still alive.
太丢脸了。
Like this is deeply embarrassing. Nancy Pelosi kneeling while wearing Kente Cloth levels of embarrassing. It shows OP doesn’t have any close Chinese friends and also demonstrates a reddit headline level of understanding of China; Hong Kong is not behind the firewall, HKers can (and often do) post this picture.
As a Chinese person, the mental image of OP smugly posting this to “own the tankies” in the same way MAGA dipshits post “Let’s Go Brandon” hoping to own the liberals has given me a near lethal amount of second hand cringe.
Please, for the love of god, never approach a Chinese person with this attitude irl. This is on par with ordering an “Irish Car Bomb” in an Irish pub on St. Patricks day, or saying “grassy-ass” to your Hispanic server instead of “thank you”, or trying to use anime Japanese around Japanese people, or code switching to AAVE around black people.
.world pre-emptively blocked the piracy comms because they are ostensibly based in Germany and have to abide by EU rules re: promotion/discussion of copyright infringement.
Despite the fact that they were never even issued a warning for such an obscure internet forum, and plausible deniability because the content wasn’t even theirs, they thought it’s better be paranoid safe than sorry.
ETA: so now .world has a stricter and more draconian policy regarding the discussion of piracy than Reddit, a publically traded entity based in the US, which has even harsher copyright infringement laws.
Todd Howard: we hear you fans, we are currently working on updates for Morrowind, Starfield and Elder Scrolls Online which will break add-on/mod support and ruin the frame rate for those games instead of just FO4!
Wait what if the building is a small shop that has a singular room with a toilet and sink in it? The little bookstore near my house only has 1 water closet. Those type of stores will be illegal to build from now on?
Slight nitpick(a)
You wrote 西 (xī) which means west. You probably meant 习 (xí), referring to the president.
Also in “Without the Communist Party, There Would Be No New China” you wrote 金 (jīn) which means gold, when it should be 就.
…how often do you interact with Chinese people? Whenever I go back home to Wuhan I don’t really see much oppression happening.
Must be a new anti-白左 legislation of some sort.
.world has one disadvantage: It has to follow the laws of the Netherlands, Finland AND Germany.
So theoretically, if something’s legal for the Dutch and Finns but illegal in Germany, it’s not ok on .world. I believe it used to be smaller but I think they expanded admin teams? Idk how a single non profit website is somehow beholden to the laws of 3 separate countries.
It would be hilarious if they expanded this further. They add a country where alcohol sale is illegal? Recommendations for cocktails are now against TOS. For all. Add Singapore? Oops, discussing procurement of chewing gum is now against TOS. USA? Kinder Surprise is against TOS.
It’s Spez’s Lemmy account.
Have you considered not being a bad human being?
Socialism with Cassandra characteristics
"For of all sad words of tongue or pen, The saddest are these: ‘Tankies right again!’ "
Elon Musk please do one good thing in your life and buy Reddit and run it into the ground.
Good news, the Chinese artificial sun has reached 403 seconds of stability. Up from 100 seconds 7 years ago. Once it reaches 1000 seconds at 50,000,000 Kelvin, it would mean it produces more energy than igniting the “sun” would cost.
Tucker should be sanctioned for being a bowtie wearing shit eating reactionary named “Tucker” first and foremost.
All Cop28 Are Bastards. Is that acronym already in use? It’s quite catchy
See, poor student drowning in debt? These people are having a mediocre vacation! Don’t look up how much money the publishing companies make btw
