I don’t know… when has fascism ever been a dealbreaker for all Americans? Was it during the Native American genocide? During slavery? Segregation? During the current genocide in Gaza? When? #USA #UnitedStates #fascism #history #slavery #segregation #israel #gaza #apartheid #genocide

@ln@social.bahamut.dev The US regularly intervenes to ensure Israel has everything it needs to continue its genocide. The US is funding the genocide in Gaza and Israel’s war crimes in the region. And I’m thinking the only country to have ever used nuclear weapons against a civilian population can stomach a lot of carnage so I wouldn’t bet on their hitting the breaks anytime soon.
The fuckers (Israel) have attacked the UN *again* today. Third attack in three days. Who’s going to stop these fuckers? <https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2024/oct/11/middle-east-crisis-live-eu-israel-iran-lebanon-blog-news-updates-hezbollah-hamas-unifil> #israel #rogueState #pariahState #terroristState #IDF #IOF #warCrimes #settlerColonialism #colonialism #apartheid #ethnicCleansing #genocide #UN #UNIFIL #history

Of course, it would be nicer if the Mastodon interface actually hid filtered notifications instead of doing whatever the fuck this is.

If you want to hide the current deluge of Mastodon spam, either create a filter for krsw-wiki.org in the Mastodon admin interface and/or, if you’re using Mona, mute the keyword. #fediverse #mastodon #spam

@Tooden@aus.social Understatement of the century :)
But the key point is that it’s not just him. Almost half a million British people voted him greatest Briton of all time just two decades ago.
There’s a reason the west has been unabashedly arming a genocide in Palestine for the past year.
“I do not admit for instance that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that the dog in the manger has the final right to the manger, though he may have lain there for a very long time.” – Winston Churchill, UK prime minister and honorary US citizen (by act of Congress). Voted greatest Briton of all time in 2002 BBC poll. <https://anarcholatina.blackblogs.org/oh-no-you-dont-get-to-blame-netanyahu-against-germanic-bothsideism/> #colonialism #racism #apartheid #genocide #UK #USA #America #Germany #Israel #history

Not partnering with trillion-dollar, people-farming, human-rights-eroding, and democracy-destroying surveillance capitalists like Meta should be the lowest of low bars when it comes to organisations that purport to work on ethical technology but, clearly, even that bar is just too fucking high for some. #SocialWebFoundation #SWF #fediverse #mastodon #pixelfed #vivaldi #writeAs #iftas #ghost #mammoth #meta #automattic #medium #flipboard #fordFoundation #fastly #institutionalCorruption #BigTech

Ah, this is because Mozilla Location Services is dead (I guess it wasn’t AI enough). And now GNOME are considering Google – because, why not? Nothing wrong with Google, amirite?
Really love how GNOME Settings links to this excellent page on Mozilla’s privacy policy for location data. #GNOME #Mozilla #location #data #privacy

Native support for ed25519/x25519 in the browser would be a huge step forward for in-browser/client-side cryptography. Looks like Google is holding up our ability to use it in production. (Firefox and Safari both have support enabled by default.)

The latest US arms sale to Israel alone was worth $20B. There have been over 100 sales since Oct 7. That’s a lot of money, profit, and jobs. How many American families make all or a portion of their living from the Israeli-American genocide of the Palestinian people? <https://www.timesofisrael.com/report-us-quietly-approved-more-than-100-arms-sales-to-israel-since-october-7/> <https://www.itv.com/news/2024-08-13/us-approves-20-billion-of-weapons-sales-to-israel> #IsraeliAmericanGenocideOfThePalestinianPeople #Israel #US #USA #America #genocide #ethnicCleansing #settlerColonialism #colonialism #empire #Palestine #Gaza #WestBank #capitalism #history

@DodoTheDev @Lokjo @librewolf @Vivaldi Yeah, although I just read that they’re using the manipulative “Maybe later” pattern in at least one of their dialogs so that would be a good thing to fix for the future (I’m using Vivaldi too as my default browser.)
The opposite of “Yes” is “No”, not “Maybe later.”

@dajix @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social It’s deceptive. They know exactly what they’re doing. That’s why they also ask if you haven’t used your browser for a while.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Guess what, Firefox does the same thing (a refresh will reset your privacy settings and your default browser, all of which affect Mozilla’s revenue streams) but they’re a tad sneakier/cleverer(?) about it.
(Firefox is not private by default so getting you to reset your settings is how they try to influence you to return to their preferred configuration.)
