Hope @ruud is prepared for Jun 30 when RIF will go down... redditors will flood us

Are they really losing? Looking at the map it seems like they control 2x territory compared to pre-2022. And they just recently took Bakhmut.

If you are using a tank purely for moving people around then the only crew member is tank commander. Speaking of fuel, it is not like Russia has any shortage of it.

Totally irrelevant because:

• Russians use them mostly as tactical utility vehicles for moving personel around.
• Tank battles almost never happens in modern warfare
• Russians still have more T90s than Ukraine has Leopards and T90 is a more advanced and better protected machine

And what the entire west is going to do about it? Express deep concerns? Deliver 10 more outdated tanks to Ukraine?

I still can't believe it will actually happen...RIF was Reddit on mobile phone for me. Killing it is like killing reddit itself. Well, yeah, good luck

Well, I guess it will work out if Switzerland manages to sell it's CO2 emissions to other countries.

there is lemmynsfw.com for you already

To be honest, the fact that such immature software is capable of being a viable alternative to one of the biggest websites on the internet is already super impressive.

Let's see where we will head in a couple of years.

At publishing time, state officials in Texas were willing to discuss accepting San Francisco as a new city with the condition that it stop being super gay.

Lol. I'd put them on drug probation instead.

On a more serious note, it is maddening that the most naturally beautiful places (California, Oregon and Washington) are going down the sink thanks to liberal politics.

1. Ethical concerns and uncertainty: Gender affirming care for children involves making irreversible decisions that can have long-term physical, psychological, and social consequences. While it is important to prioritize the well-being of children, there is ongoing debate within the medical community regarding the appropriate age at which such interventions should be considered and whether they are in the best interest of the child. Some medical professionals argue that children may lack the cognitive maturity to fully comprehend the implications of such interventions and that it is necessary to approach these matters cautiously.

2. Lack of long-term research: The field of gender affirming care for children is relatively new, and there is a lack of comprehensive long-term research on the outcomes of these interventions. This means that the long-term effects, both positive and negative, of gender affirming care on children are still not fully understood. Without sufficient evidence-based data, it can be challenging to determine the best course of action and ensure that these interventions are truly beneficial and minimize harm.

3. Exploration and self-identity: Childhood and adolescence are periods of self-exploration and identity development. Some argue that it is crucial to allow children the freedom to explore and question their gender identity without prematurely committing to medical interventions. Taking a more cautious approach and providing supportive counseling, therapy, and non-permanent interventions may allow for a more holistic exploration of identity, taking into account the child's social, emotional, and psychological well-being.

4. Ethical considerations of irreversible interventions: Gender affirming care for children often involves irreversible medical interventions such as hormone therapy or surgeries. It is essential to consider the potential impact on the child's future well-being if they later question or regret the decision made during their youth. By waiting until the child reaches an age of greater maturity and self-awareness, they can make a more informed decision about their gender identity and weigh the potential consequences of irreversible interventions.

5. Parental rights and autonomy: Decisions regarding a child's gender affirming care should be primarily left to the parents, as they are responsible for the well-being of their children. It is important to respect the rights of parents to make decisions they believe are in the best interest of their child, as long as the child is not being subjected to harm or neglect. By allowing a diversity of perspectives and not imposing a single medical consensus, the autonomy and decision-making power of parents can be preserved.

Medical professionals In the U.S was performing lobotomy less than 50 years ago and there was general consensus that it is beneficial within the country, but it was criticized outside, e.g in Soviet Union. Right now there is some consensus that minors can consent to sex change within the U.S mostly, but it is mostly unheard of outside. Same pattern in my opinion.

I think it is a barbaric practice which should be outlawed. Let kids be kids, they can change their bodies when they grow up.

They are doing this to sell you LinkedIn premium which lets you see who exactly visited your profile.

Tbh $0.20 a day won't get you very far even in Bangladesh nowadays. Moderation costs will be quite high in the end for them.

It is actually surprising that LA has so many metro stations. I was under impressions it is totally car centric city.

Hahaha. No.

No matter what Meta will be releasing I'm not touching it with a long pole.

I'm seeing this aswell. I think it's safe to just ignore it for now.

Thanks /u/spez!

Maybe they just ran out of money and their hosting provider shut them down? Reddit was so desperate with these API fees

Newsom finished with ruining California and now targeting the whole nation?

Also started lemming on lemmy.world! Seems quite stable and getting popular

Uber, Doordash, all kinds of gigs

I had no idea it's a thing. But now I hate it

Keep both!

Great! Subscribing

It doesn't look like we have the same css feature yet, but you can start your own lemmy instance just to host your community and customize the hell out of it.

I expect it to be a letdown, just hope not a super huge one.

I just installed Jerboa and it totally kicks ass! I will miss rif but with such a nice replacement I can just comfortably switch to lemmy

A russian here, can confirm that nothing prevents me from using Linux. Had no idea I'm a boogey man though

Why only 15 years?! Why can do better!

Hurray! My first post here
