I got the joke

Likely not scalable on an industrial level, as always.

Oh no, please no. They were supposed to be the best of us.

The stripping of clothes is done to determine whether they have a bomb vest on, which is a 100% legitimate concern with Hamas who has used adults and children for suicide bombers. I don’t understand why this is so hard for people to grasp.

You can buy them right now, there’s more links in the 18650masterrace subreddit, but here’s just one:

However good luck finding a BMS that works for it’s particular voltage range, don’t think AliExpress has any yet.

I haven’t seen any posts from those diy type folks experimenting with them yet. Sodium ion cells just became available within the last few months or so.

Except Hamas aren’t solely fighting for freedom, they specifically want ALL of Israel gone and ALL Jews killed, they literally want a theocratic dictatorship under Islam. And they won’t stop until they get it.

IDF and netanhayu are real dirty here, but Hamas and the (maybe) majority Palestinians that support them are like the anti thesis to a free society. Plus they’re violent homophobes that stone LGBTQ people to death.

That tips me to Israel’s side in this, minus the far right Jewish extremists that literally killed an Israeli prime minister because he was succeeding in brokering peace.

I guess this is kind of my point. The general left consensus on copyrights, creator’s content, DRM, and AI is not founded a position of principles, it’s foundation is seemingly only what serves the end goal which is whatever is perceived to help middle/lower class the most.

Which of course I can totally get down with, but I just resent that everyone covers their arguments as if it’s coming from a principled idea when in actuality they hold little principles on the matter and just want an end goal.

I was under the impression that the main point of DRM was to prevent blanket copying of a product and sharing with others who haven’t purchased said product.

So you’re pro-DRM then if it helps content creators sell one copy per customer?

What about the rights of the creator and fair compensation? That argument alone is driving the entire backlash against AI and AI created art whereby people’s work was read and incorporated in some level without restriction, why not here too?

Alright, I concede. These are all fair points.

Iirc he did at first until the US military worked out a deal with Starlink.

I love that you have 6 downvotes probably purely because you dared to say Starlink is good for your use case. Haven’t you heard the news that Musk is bad therefore you’re a bad person too for using Starlink?

You’ve clearly never read anything about Starlink and it’s implementation. Rural customers are desperate for any alternatives, and Starlink has 100s of LEO satellites vs Viasat’s… 4.

Is starling like an interstellar zergling or something?

if only Mastodon would get off their high-horse and address usability issues, like the lack of a like button. Lemmy has it figured out much better by having an “all” tab populated by all the subs users have subbed to.
