  • It is not an “opinion”. It is fact.

    Either way, religion has no real life basis, it’s not scientific. You can, however, use science to observe the mass murdering of children, destruction of cities, plowing down thousands of neighbourhoods to build highways, caused by SUVs and dependence on cars. The point is that SUV drivers do not respect life because SUVs exist to, and are popular solely to, be the bigger tank in car crashes, have a high hood so you kill pedestrians when you run them over, and endanger the lives of others for your own perceived (and fake) safety, while also blasting out a ton of pollution while you’re at it.

    If religion is real to someone, they are crazy. Just as we shouldn’t entertain the delusions of a schizophrenic as real, we shouldn’t entertain the delusions of religious people as real. What matters is the actual observable scientific facts we have available to us, which supports things like ending car-centric infrastructure and not using SUVs and trucks if you don’t need them and are just doing errands the city in them like a loser. Civilization’s completely fucked by car emissions and SUVs have a higher pedestrian killcount than a hundred 9/11s but hey man gotta drive my kids to soccer practice in a tank, and besides the pastor said the rapture was imminent or something anyways.

    Going to an atheism community or science-based community and saying “but religion might be real though, their bigotry is equally as valid as actual facts/science” and expecting anyone to take that seriously at all is crazy.


  • I’m not even the guy you originally responded to and I have no stake in this, I am simply telling you that your statements make you sound stupid.

    Marxism is a socialist~communist socioeconomic/political philsosophy, and being a Marxist means you follow the ideals of said ideology, making you a socialist and/or communist (depending on the usage of the word). It does not simply (have to) mean you think “yeah the things Marx says about class are accurate”, it means you advocate for the solutions he describes for the industrialist plague.

    Calling someone a “capitalist Marxist” is fucking gold lol, I mean depending on context/connotation of the word it isn’t always technically impossible (if that’s what you want to call class-conscious capitalists), but in this case it certainly is impossible since he’s clearly meaning it in the sense of someone who believes in implementing Marx’s socialism, not just someone who believes that what Marx says about politics/economy/power is accurate.




  • my guy have you been to hexbear or lemmygrad? every other post on those forums are just people whining about westerners treating china and russia like they’re totalitarian/dictatorships and genocidal (because they are) and then saying that the US is even worse with less freedom of speech and more authoritarian. and obviously the constant uyghur genocide denial saying they’re just being “(re)educated” and they’re “integrating” with the mainland communities/culture more, then deflecting and rationalizing that even if it is genocide then it’s good because US wage slavery & prison labour is bad.

    plus calling ukraine nazis and in general being anti-ukraine, saying that ukrainians want to be part of russia and that ukraine was better off as part of the soviet empire, claiming that putin was justified in invading “because NATO” even though there was no way in hell of ukraine joining NATO (they don’t accept unstable countries or countries with foreign non-NATO military/rebel presence) and even after NATO started backing away from ukraine in order to please russia (tankie claims which are silly and a sick joke)…

    it’s not nearly as bad on lemmy.ml, it’s mostly limited to the minority here, but the other two are definitely filled to the brim with imperialists/red nazis in denial…



  • i don’t wanna be the one to tell the slaves “hey guys i know forced labour sucks and all but we gotta have more ammo for this random war half-way across the globe so you’ll just have to push through it”

    same for things like EVs. i like things that use batteries a lot, but i’d really have a stronger guarantee that the materials to make it aren’t sourced by slave labour or methods that harm the local ecosystem… i mean a large part of that problem is also that the US has fuck all for recycling laws, i don’t think most lithium is actually recycled anyways. but that’s a different topic





  • download Ryujinx, get keys by downloading them from a site (like from prodkeys.net) and you should get files “prod.keys” and “title.keys”, place them in “./Ryujinx/system/”. then you can go on a site like www.nxbrew.com, download nsp or xci files of the game (and a potential updates and whatever dlc), and throw them in folders of your choice (i personally have a “roms” folder with all my game files for different consoles, including a “switch” folder, with folders called “games” and subfolders “updates”, “dlc”, “mods”, “cheats”).

    then, get on ryujinx, select the folder with your games as your game directory, and your games should be visible. you can right click on the game on the list and add updates or dlc, you can go to the mod directory ryujinx made for the game and add a bunch of folders with the mod data inside of it (for example, for ACNH i might have a folder called “360_camera” and inside of it will be a folder called “romfs”/“romFs” which will have a bunch of files/folders for the mod in it) and then select the mods to enable. for cheats you just need a folder named “cheats” in the mod directory and then you can put cheats for the game in plain text in the folder.

    you can also mess with the graphics settings, use an input device (probably an xbox/playstation/switch controller), change datetime (although i find it doesn’t allow you to make the date out of sync with your device’s date, so you may want to go to your computer settings and manually change it if you want to do that), etc.

    redditors even on piracy subs treat actually pirating things like it’s voldemort, so when i wanted to emulate switch games it was a pain in the ass for me to find out what i needed to do, i hope this helps you not run into those issues lol.



  • i’d play totk on grapefruit, or kiyomi, or tangor, or even rangpur. perhaps kampei, or jabara, or iyokan. maybe lumia or pompia, or daidai, or chinotto, or calamansi. koji and reikou work too. suenkat/sunki, sudachi, kabosu, oroblanco, dangyuja, amanatsu… the possibilities are endless!

    but maybe citri are too obvious, maybe we should think out of the box… like melons! honeydew sounds like a good emulator name (maybe a bit overused though), and so does argos, gaya or hami too! kajari, mirza, and dosakai as well…

    of course, but that’s not an issue with “the government needs to not be able to hide anything”. you can’t just nitpick some examples of where it may do good to justify the position – you open an entire can of worms with the vagueness. should they have to disclose a list of all the people theyre keeping tabs on, how theyre doing so, and the info they hold on them? that would be extremely dangerous for society. should they disclose the exact methods which they use to track people? again, you’re just showing the people they’re tracking (for good reason) how to avoid being tracked. if you just want no backdoors then say “we shouldn’t have government backdoors”, but the only way to properly ensure that the government is illegally doing so is by exposing a whole lot more stuff that may not go so nicely.

    i don’t want the government surveilling me illegally, but i find it reasonable that the government can hide a lot of stuff for the sake of all safety. i also find it reasonable for them to be audited extensively. do I trust the government? lol no, but i can’t complain about the government not previously keeping tabs on obvious shooters, then say i don’t want the government keeping secrets like that… it’s one or the other.

    obviously many specific things shouldn’t be able to be hidden by the government. but you’re painting with a broad brush

    so your solution is for the government to notify people of those vulnerabilities so others can immediately take abuse of them? because people know that the government makes backdoors on a lot of tech, it’s no secret to people, your “solution” wouldn’t exactly achieve anything. the current government doesn’t care about collateral so it’s not like they’d just stop doing it.

    why stop at tech? why not show us where their cameras are located too?

    quick, let’s notify the future shooter how government may track him so that he’ll take the exact necessary steps to not be caught before committing a shooting. and the foreign spy. and the person who plans to sell/traffic illegal items. they deserve a right to know exactly how the government tracks them, after all

    how do you catch criminals if they know exactly how the government would catch them? saying the government has nothing to hide if it has nothing to fear is ignorant of reality
