Quantity is going to rise because now everybody will drink alcohol instead of water. like back In 1800’s

They kinda did the same with Nazis, and Nazis were worse, and much much more successful. Now is the time that you hate them?

War is hell. But remember, all these people were sent to kill innocent people. I dont care about “why”. The ends doesnt justify the means.

They were sent to kill innocent people. You can kill yourself and save a ton of innocent lives by not placing mines all over the place. Kids even.

You can bribe your commander.

You can run before all this happens. By the time you suspect they’re going to call you even. Tons of Russians have already done that.

You can revolute against your own government. Yes, going to prison, is FUCKING BETTER than killing innocent lives and children or supporting a war where people have been raping women.

Like jesus. The copium of trying to support these soldiers that were sent to kill other innocent people who have done NOTHING to them, is amazingly high.

Guys and girls. these people are there to kill people, kids, civilians. Not play on the playground. War is hell. And if you’re on the wrong side of war, you deserve no mercy until you’re immobilized. Maybe treatment, maybe being human to them. But once you’re active and ready to kill and support this war, you can fuck off back to Russia or the other world.

But not all these soldiers are war criminals

They literally are war criminals. They’re participating in an invasion for no cause other than boosting Putin’s ego.

And I’ve seen the propaganda advertisments in Russia “Go to war, support your country” and “Go to war, gives good money, support your family” and such.

Invading another country without cause makes you literally a war criminal. It is really … that simple. Russia is literally a terrorist state at that moment. They’ve killed hundreds of civilians, thousands of Ukrainian fighters as well. Putting mines all over the place. Crippling and injuring so many other fighters and civilians as well. Sent terrorist groups.

If you’re participating in such war, you are a war criminal. You can kill yourself. you can abandon your unit. You can bribe your commanders. You can run away before all this even starts. But by the moment you’re invading another country and you’re killing innocent people who have done NOTHING to you, you’re a war criminal. It is really … that simple. Coz it’s “either I save myself or I kill these innocent people”. That’s a war criminal mindset coz it makes it seem as if you’re a good guy in your mind. When you’re not.

They’re not all dead. They’re casualties, but not dead necessarily. 100-200k are. still a huge number though. Plus many of them have huge injuries, some dont have arms, some are blind … devastating.

Shadow units are really accurate. Haven’t you seen the whole at the bridge? They are so accurate they can point exactly at the middle of the road if they want to and it will hit precisely that.

No, the app is made for everybody who wants to use a messenger. Not just you and him. It’s supposed to be under the standards of the feddiverse.

The comments here are not a poll. Providing especially personal comments about a nerdy user like me and the guy I replied about “I would like it like ICQ” and such shit, would not help the creator make a good choice. Most people nowadays, especially zoomers, dont even know what ICQ is or how it works or how to even login to it. Most people, proven by ehm … the success of messenger, discord, whatsapp, telegram, viber, signal everything … want a messenger that provides what the mainstream messenger wants with most of the features that everybody provides and are mainstream used while having ease of access.

We should try to help the creator. Not misguide him. Again, the comments are not a poll, they’re supposed to help to make a constructive conversation. And when you talk as if the app is made only about yourself, you’re not really helping.

That’s a great way of putting it.

Although, when you have millions of people in a platform it’s hard to prevent playful “wars” and “games” between people which works like chain-reaction and everybody starts doing anything or streamers like XQC realizing they can make content out of this and putting their own “minions” aka viewers to make chaos.

Sometimes, some things are just not in your control.

I talked about various audiences not just myself. The person I replied to talked as if the app was made for him explicitly. “VoIP is not something I’d care about, file transfers are” like this kind of talking is like bruh, the app is not made only for you.

Oh yeah. Wait we had a Lemmy place here?? Bruh, I didn’t even know about it sorry.

Comparing it to last year, that seems to be a lot of white space. Damn.

There was this business that was letting at 24:00 receipts on our tables that weren’t ours. And the girl was searching always what table didn’t have a receipt so she would give one randomly.

Either our “IRS” tax evasion works over night, or that store just makes blank receipts for drugs or other illegal acts. It was weird anyway, and self service. Wtf. Self service in the middle of the town in a beer bar pub like is just weird. Why did they have the waitress giving fake receipts then. Everything was so sketchy.

Chill, you’re not the only one here.

VoIP in a mainstream messenger is something that most people use nowadays to avoid calling people from their SIM cards which costs them much.

Video calling too is something I personally use too especially on iMessage or Telegram.

I’m a software engineer, I appreciate some old school things that work perfectly well like ICQ or Vim or emacs or working only with shortcuts. But you know what’s also a shortcut? Not having to use 50 different messengers just because this one doesn’t have VoIP and I can’t bring my friends or my mom here but I can bring only my nerd friends”.

This is all business and target audience oriented. You are not the only target audience out there and especially when you don’t demand from a messenger to be able to have VoIP. Even Instagram has VoIP these days. A photo-video-media sharing app. Let alone a messenger.

I didn’t say THE majority. You continue to change my words. I said A majority. There can be multiple majorities in a community in relation to something else. And in the business world when you say 1/3 of shares is owned by X entity, that IS a majority. Because the rest is most likely 1 million other people/entities with no power, some are VC, some are CEO, some are other seeders.

I understand you may not know much about the business world. It’s not bad not knowing things. And stop insulting people for not knowing something. Shaming people for lack of knowledge is just such a loser mentality. It’s like sucking your own cock.

And at last you answered without direct insults, but you still gave me a “you have a little grasp of business economics and maths” which is ironical.

1/3 is a big portion to own from a company. I’m in the business world, I’m also been a trader for years now, we also do discussions on our company’s surge meetings about IPOs and I have friends who’ve been bank CEOs or still are. Believe me. 1/3 is a big portion to own from a company. You own

1/3 of the decisions in a sense that the company does. You have huge voting power and rights. Stop pretending to be blind for the sake of proving yourself right.

Tencent has only funded 158 million […] that’s only 1/3 of the shares

and that’s not a majority of the shares? Are you stupid or you’re pretending to be?

Because so far you’ve only insulted me but now it’s time for me to insult you. You firstly clearly don’t know how to make a discussion work without insulting your counterparty, and secondly don’t know in english the difference between “THE majority” and “A majority”.

You talk like a classic 9gagger who only knows how to talk with insults and misinformation and with pure arrogance. 1/3 is a majority of the shares. That’s how it works in business. 1/3 is a big number to take big decisions and make vetos and be on the table.

I don’t unfortunately, I would even have done it by hand despite that I’m a developer and could have made a bot myself. Point is, if I knew about it I would be so furious that I would have no problem doing it by hand. Fuck spez.

Tencent owns a majority of the shares. If you want to dispute me, at least throw a source … it’s a well known fact in the business community.

I dont know what you say, I transitioned to Lemmy 100% and deleted my acc at reddit.

The only super annoying thing is that they get to keep the cake whole and the dog full (my comments by deleting my name and my acc deleted). Which I despite them for that even more now and just make me avoid the platform even more and dis-advertise it.

I would be fully happy if I had my account, changed my comments first to “fuck /u/spez” and then had deleted my account, but I only knew so much. I was naive enough to think they would delete my comments too, since they’re My Intellectual Property. Right? They came from my own mind, I took the time to write them, and I deleted them! But no! We will keep them, just delete your name.

And when you google my reddit username, you still get from the google’s cache directed to threads with my deleted comments. Fuck you spez. Fuck you.

Time will tell if reddit won. It’s not a short-term fight. I deleted my discord a Chinese Tencent’s vessel and a product that makes no money but burns money for the sake of gathering data. My Instagram, my Meta account thus my FB too, my WhatsApp, every app that was there just to gather my data or exploit me now or in the future.

I do everything to keep off being fingerprinted. I use platforms that use more and more end-to-end encryption like Matrix. Or at worst Telegram which is not end to end but the best of the worst since my relatives still use it.

Just because you don’t see it yet, doesn’t mean that a movement against anti-consumer platforms like reddit don’t exist. I inform my mom about it, I inform my relatives and friends about it. I move friends and friends move me to safer for the future to use platforms and de-centralized.

A battle may be short, but the war is long.

Reddit is the reason I learned about lemmy. But the rest seems really informational

These conscripts if they try to surrender, can and have been executed by professional soldiers on the back line. Also they risk getting killed anyway trying to surrender to Ukrainian troops. It’s not as simple as you make it seem.

“These conscripts get killed if they try to surrender” what a stupid excuse.

So lets go commit war crimes. Yes? Kill innocent people, rape people, throw missiles on innocent people. Yes? That’s the way!
