politics @lemmy.world•Senate votes against Sanders resolution to force human rights scrutiny over Israel aid
1·2 years agoThe link is to a court filing with the UN.
And its not just the actions, its the statements by Israeli figures, which aren’t related to the PA/are easily externally verifiable.
They clearly demonstrate intent and action for genocide, and the most significant aspects like razing half of Gaza to the ground, bombing “”“safe zones”“” (which are already essentially force mass migration, and what about people who cant evacuate), preventing even the most basic access to food, water, electricity, healthcare, etc. are easy to see.
If you want more named sources, perhaps consider that Israel apparently loves to prevent journalistic entry and also bomb journalists in Gaza <.<
And we all know what Israel’s statements are. “Everything is a Hamas base, so lets use masses of high yield bombs in highly urbanised areas while deliberately bombing the zones we pretended were safe, and our officials cheer on mass slaughter of civilians while claiming no person in Gaza can be considered a civilian and comparing them to animals or filth to be removed”

2·2 years agoHonestly I’d just read South Africa’s court filing with the International Criminal Court (yes I know they’re hypocrites due to lukewarm attitudes to Putin’s actions but it doesnt change the facts in the specific case): https://www.icj-cij.org/sites/default/files/case-related/192/192-20240112-pre-01-00-en.pdf
You dont have to read all of it. Even scrolling and just stopping randomly comes up with sone of the most horrific shit the government of Israel is doing and the stuff high level administrators have advocated for and said.
If you think the “human animals” comments and policies are bad, it gets so much fucking worse :/

politics @lemmy.world•Plant Milk Is Better For Us and the Climate. So Why Do We Subsidize Dairy?
11·2 years ago“Chemicals” are actually good and based when they make food have better taste, texture, and preservation qualities, especially when they are used to make things that replace environmentally destructive and more fatty or sugary alternatives - increasing agricultural efficiency and by-proxy reducing land use and runoff -and especially when the fact they’re “artificial” means they actually get tested for negative health effects . nya
Also low sugar plant milks are very common, just drank some unsweetened soya milk right now and it was good shit ;p
Often they are only sweetened to appeal to people accustomed to high-sugar dairy too. I started on sweetened soya milk then moved to unsweetened after a bit. Feels good to have less sugar in your diet, in general .
I don’t think you understand anarchism.

4·2 years agoThat’s one of the advantages with p2p-ish networks, if you’re on the same network, devices can often disover each other and communicate directly, bypassing the bottleneck of an internet connection like traditional cloud services have .

Technology@lemmy.world•Why This Award-Winning Piece of AI Art Can’t Be CopyrightedEnglish
1·2 years agoDepends on how radical we’re talking.
On the less radical side - UBI, donations, contracts for creation of art that people want even if it’s not copyrighted afterward, Convenience Factor (often used by FOSS projects), and also the fact that a lot of art is created and intended for free redistribution anyhow .
On the more radical side: re-examining our entire concept of work and labour and rent, decentralused gift economies, automation, the destruction of capitalist structures as a whole, etc.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Does someone know the organizational structure of Proton and Tutanota? How democratic is it? How hierarchical is it? How are decisions made? How are tasks determined and distributed?
3·2 years agoThey actually also have an onion service: https://proton.me/tor
They should probably use the
Onion-Locationextension http header though, imo.When I accessed their front page through tor,it did not auto-redirect to onion >.<, even though I have that setting enabled.
Thanks .
I have a very shitty notebook this is likely to be very useful for ;p



It’s a convenient file transfer/sync tool. Copying data has to happen somehow, I’m not surprised someone thought to use syncthing for that purpose >.<, since it can do that. But its not really different than any other tool here.
