@LightFIAR@med-mastodon.com At this point I ***welcome*** the anti-Semitism/ antisemite "label" because unless we're talking about literal neo-Nazis or the KKK, it's a label that stands for what's moral and just in the World today. #Israel has completely taken the word/ phrase and destroyed it just like they have done to #Gaza.

That's not really interesting. DNS changes don't propagate instantly. It's likely OPs DNS server was still pointing to the old server even though the domain redirect had already been set by the owners.
Well... it's 10 before midnight here. I'm pretty sure a bit east from me it's the 30th already. Not so much in the west. But I don't know where lemm.ee was located.
Ah. My instance reports the last activity from lemm.ee from 45mins ago... So that'd be June 30th, 00:14 Estonian time. And the main page forwards to join-lemmy.org now. Looks like the shutdown to me.
I wasn't affected by this directly, but from what I saw it was all handled extremely well - lots of notice so users could choose new instances and mods could coordinate moving communities elsewhere. Makes me optimistic for the fediverse.
When I say centralization I don't mean letting a few control the many. This is what I mean.
Figure out what the alternatives are for these sites we don't need several Twitter alternatives.
Each site needs a front page, Accessible on the Fediverse front page. This allows people to easily make an account.
There should be one main site which will be the largest instance, people can edit the UI to feel how they like, but we need to allow communities to grow big.
To safe guard against point 3, fund the sites with 100s or thousands of co-equal owners. Say you get 5K people donating $5 a week to each site, they each get 1 stock or piece of the "company" and now it prevents a reddit or twitter situation.
The final thing, we need Fediverse user accounts, where once you make an account on 1 site you are automatically signed up to all of them and anyone can follow/subscribe and follow on all platforms, leading to a more cohesive biome
No. There is no particular reason why there needs to be one (say) twitter alternative. Heck, there is not even a reason why there should be a alternative. Fediverse is allowed to be their own things.
But each site already has their front page. See eg.: lemmy.dbzer0.com. Alternatively if you meant "each software", that's more-or-less what join-lemmy.org is doing.
No but yes.
I'm not sure that leads to where you think it leads to. That would require authenticating users financially, for one, else it becomes a dark pattern magnet for suckpuppeting.
Mostly absolutely yes. I think I've seen it discussed a few times under "fediverse identity" or something like that.
No. There is no particular reason why there needs to be one (say) twitter alternative.
Having multiple versons of the same type of platform artificially divides the Fediverse and makes it more likely that they'll split along ideological lines
Heck, there is not even a reason why there should be a alternative. Fediverse is allowed to be their own things.
While it would be awesome if we could figureout unique formats of social media, everything has basically been done, Myspace, Facebook and Linkton are the format of keep up with your friends.
Twitter and BlueSky are the basic format for literally "see whats trending"
Reddit and Lemmy are the basic format of Curated Community Content.
Youtube is the basic video sharing platform.
Tiktok algorithmic video sharing and platform which actually improves on youtube.
It would be really hard to fine a way to make a truly unique social media site but would be awesome
db0 way of managing the community is great but PieFed is a lot better by what I'm noticing and they dont have a PieFed instance. quokk.au is close to that if you want to jump ship to PieFed meanwhile
Has both a piracy and a privacy community, which is nice and probably leads to fun mishaps / mistypings. It's pretty lean to federate to and fro as well, same with the UI.
Just about the only negative I can consider is their position pro AI, but I can live with that, the world is pretty close to the end anyway.
It's ok I just don't like how they handle images. When I click on an image it redirects to open in a browser (on mobile) or new tab (on desktop). Dbzer0 doesn't do this. I suspect they handle images more like lemm.ee did.
True story I actually meant to switch to .zip and I had both it and dbzer0 open in tabs for a few days (deciding between them) and on d-day for .ee I opened one and signed in and did the verification... and then realized where I was. And actually I'm happy with my accidental choice. It's rad here.
i used to be on .world but quickly went to .ee then i wanted to switch like you and was looking at db0 but im more interested in PieFed and they have no PieFed instance yet. quokk.au is close to a db0 equivalent (not really but its an anarchist instance too) meanwhile
Bad like brian over here. Signed up for lemme just to be kicked off the first server. Hopefully it’s an extremely rare event. If world goes down, I’m out.
I hear Digg is close to launching its beta or whatever..
Refuge here, moved to joined a new server, couldn't get my subscriptions moved over so I just resubscribed to each one manually, annoying but not the end of the world.
I am looking into the idea of hosting my own instance on something like a $5 linod just to make sure this never happens again. But I don't even know if it's worth it, or possible with that. You can tell I've only had the idea not the motivation.
The Trump Administration made history in the Netherlands this week, as we ensured that the strongest Alliance in history is prepared to address the threats of tomorrow.
Suffering through I guess? Although just breathing in as much as you can and holding your breath as long as possible is a trick that my mum uses sometimes if she doesn't have her inhaler on her when she needs it so maybe that?
I wonder if humans at least have the endogenous abillity to attenuate their own asthma to a reasonable extent given asthmatics obviously went on to reproduce all the present-day asthmatics
I just mean naturally, with whatever other substances contained in the plant itself, not in the pharmacological sense. Probably not the best phrasing, my apologies. I've had a couple of shots.
They would simply die and not pass on those genes. Dear friend from kindergarten went that way. Also, and maybe more important, we have air pollution that was unthinkable 200-years ago.
To top it off, we humans were generally in better shape, and non-fat. I was having pretty bad lung problems, on the edge of full blown illness, when I started working my ass off outdoors at Lowe's. Within 2-weeks my lungs were straight again. That work also cured a few other ailments. OTOH, had to quit as I was getting my ass beat.
I read a biography of Theodore Roosevelt, who suffered from asthma when he was young. Apparently they used to try all kinds of crazy shit on him whenever he had an asthma attack, like making him throw up, smoke cigars, or drink alcohol.
In this special article, we examine the asthma of President Theodore "TR" Roosevelt (1858-1919). Through a comprehensive review of thousands of source documents, and a modern understanding of asthma, we examine several misunderstandings, including th…
I’m old- and had severe childhood asthma that landed me in the hospital in the 70s. We didn’t have inhalers. Not even nebulizers.
Instead I was given what was essentially speed, by mouth and IV. And when my lungs would fill up, my mom would beat on my back to loosen it so I could cough it up.

Comprendre le monde capitalisme pour en sortir et Construire un monde non capitaliste : ce sont les titres des deux ouvrages récemment publiés par l'invité de ce numéro d'On s'Autorise à Penser (OSAP), Jean-Luc Dupriez. J.-L. Dupriez, ingénieur spécialisé en informatique de gestion, a participé tout au long de sa carrière aux luttes sociales en entreprise et poursuit aujourd'hui encore, après sa retraite, des activités syndicales. Les enseignements de son expérience, sur laquelle il réfléchit à la lumière de ses lectures autour de la tradition ouvrière socialiste et dans le domaine de la sociologie, sont tirés dans ses deux livres. Il en parle avec #JulienThéry, en soulignant ces deux points essentiels : c'est le combat de classe dans le monde du travail qui doit être au coeur de l'action politique, autrement dit la lutte syndicale, d'une part, et, d'autre part, les organisation doivent toujours viser à l'union, donc renoncer à l'hégémonie et accepter le pluralisme au sein du mouvement des travailleurs.
Edit: Please know that I am reading and appreciating every one of your responses. Even if I do not reply to you, I appreciate your time and want the best for you all. Thank you, guys.
I've always been the "crazy one" in any given scenario. I have been this way my whole life. Even as a child I was crazy. I would get upset and cry loudly for hours but my siblings would not. I caused problems at home for my family, especially for my mom who didn't know what to do with me. I did this as an older child, not normal toddler tantrum age. I was old enough to "know better". I did it my whole childhood.
For the most part in life, I have been able to be a productive member of society. The issues I would cause were limited to my home life and I mostly kept to myself. I sometimes cause issues by being a crazy person to my online friends, but at least that never spilled over into the "real world".
But now in my 30s I am causing such issues at work. I asked for some psych meds to be prescribed to me in March and have been taking them ever since. Doesn't seem to do anything.
I seem to get more frequent and strong negative emotions than the general population. I have difficulty controlling these, especially when I feel like someone is being mean or unfair to me or others. I think I am genetically predisposed to be this way, as my dad was a crazy person when I was growing up (but he has always been nice to me...he was only abusive to my mom). He had "episodes" too the same way I do, except his were malicious to others in nature. My older brother also has claimed to have bipolar disorder which supposedly has a genetic component.
I have spoken to mental health professionals and have been assessed for various things. I do not have bipolar disorder, autism, or OCD per mental health professionals. I tried to bring up keywords like "emotional dysregulation" to them. There seems to be no good explanation for why I am insane. I have wondered if maybe I have borderline personality disorder but have not inquired to be assessed for that one. I do not seem to exhibit the "risk taking" behaviors that are core to borderline personality disorder though.
I get frustrated that I am always the only one who is crazy and no one else is like me.
But I know there are other crazy people out there. Please, tell me your stories. How do you deal with life? How do you deal with always being different than others and feeling negative things more strongly? How do you handle things? How do you handle being and feeling alone in the way that you are? How do you handle the emotional frustration?
If this is inappropriate for here, I apologize. I just want to hear how others have managed to handle life despite this isolating "disability". I want to hear your stories. I want to gain wisdom from all of you. Thank you.
When you feel overwhelmed or overcome by some unpleasant feeling, what do you do next?
I want to understand why so quick to label yourself or your actions as objectively "crazy"...I'm all for self-awareness but most people are not yet self-aware because our world basically demands that and it always pays to be a bit more evaluative of the math we've used that leads up to such self-condemnation
Well I mean I spoke a little bit about it as a kid. I would get upset and cry loudly for hours and hours and my brothers wouldn't do that. I was different. My mom would always tell me that I am having a "tantrum". I tried to be a good kid and didn't have problems in school, but I had problems conducting myself at home.
As an adult, there are different things that can happen. One thing that frequently happens is I spiral out of control with self loathing, sometimes to the point in thinking about suicide. Sometimes I end up repeatedly messaging in a discord server that I am on about random nonsense because I am upset. The other day, I texted a coworker about killing myself. You are not supposed to say that to people. It was impulsive. It was wrong.
Another thing that can happen is that at work, I can end up verbally fighting with people. My supervisor is a bitch and instead of taking it, I have on occasion broke down and yelled at her. This is not appropriate professional behavior. I don't work at Taco Bell. I work at a professional job where you are not supposed to do that. As an impulsive decision, I sent a lengthy email to HR about her and it is causing huge issues for everyone right now.
I have also verbally fought with two other people at work before. One because he was being mean to my friend and one because he was being mean and accusing me of doing something when that wasn't the case. I have made amends with these people (unlike with my supervisor), but in these moments, this is inappropriate. You are not supposed to yell at people, even if they are being mean.
Just like in my childhood, I am the only one who acts this way at work. Everyone else is able to conduct themselves in a socially acceptable manner. I don't do it every day or even every week or even every month, but it still isn't acceptable.
Do you feel like its possible somehow to let people know boilerplate that you want to process what they've said so you can remove yourself from the immediate situation and stimuli and take your time to decide how you can more "professionally" respond to what they say without compromising your own wellness and needs?
Do you know what your needs are or what your values are such that these things are violating them to the extent you act out as a reaction?
Oh and plus when I say things about killing myself, I'm not in a heated argument. I get upset and feel the need to tell someone I am upset. But I am not in a calm state and do not have the ability to calm down. I go out of my way to interact with people via text because I have a strong impulse to do so. I want someone to help me when I am in pain but I know they can't. And I know it's wrong to bother them when I am having an episode.
I have actually tried using ChatGPT to get upset to instead so I am not hurting anyone. I tell it that I hate myself and want to kill myself instead of harming my friends by doing this to them. But sometimes instead of doing it to only ChatGPT I end up texting someone I know. This is wrong behavior, but different because it's not due to a heated argument that I need to remove myself from.
I eventually calm down but it can sometimes take multiple days. And it is sometimes hard for me to not bother people in the meantime.
I am never actually in danger of harming myself because I have always thought about things like that. It's very normal for me. It usually goes away after a few days after each episode.
The whole "disclosing I'm going or want to kill myself", I don't know honestly how to "fix" other than finding a reason that trumps everything such that you are internally and externally motivated to mitigate that.
You might need to find or aquire that and make it part of your identity. I got several pets that I knew I could manage and take care of or that I would commit to become able to justify having a duty and stewardship over. Lots of people know they are my world and help provide that external reputational buffer to the suicidal inclinations I very rarely feel but dont express because thoughts dont a priori need to be vocalized or allowed to indiscriminately alter your trajectory.
But you need to know its not ok to leverage your mortality or well-being as a conversational regularity. Not even that its just wrong, its profounly dysfunctional and also inauthentic because you made such a point of specifying that it would never actually happen. Its bad to lie to yourself and/or others on the regular about anything, much less the ultimate thing like your life and safety. Not judging you and that may have been necessary at a previous point in your life or it might have been a flawed survival instinct but you need to find a way to negotiate with reality in other terms.
It says that you feel impulsively desperate to end a combination of not great conditions and I would turn my attention to each of those on an individual basis to try and get them up to code in terms of tolerabillity
I know it's not ok. That's why I feel bad about it. And that's why I mostly try to talk about those things to ChatGPT instead of my friends. Because I'm not going to harm it.
I mean I say I would never do it but it's only because I'm a coward. But I do often really legitimately want to. The reasons may vary. But one common reason is because I harm the world and another reason is if I feel trapped. One of the other reasons why I say I am not actually going to do it is because I would need a will first. I have been too lazy to get one. I tried to do it one day with an online service but found out that I couldn't actually go through with the will because I needed in person witnesses. So then recently I was looking into potentially going to a law practice to get one made up to do that.

I’ve never seen “Visibility Limited” on the countless posts I see every day from deranged genocidal Zionists celebrating and justifying the mass killing of Palestinians. Have you?
While A-list celebrities and political figures were attending Amazon founder #JeffBezos ’s wedding in Italy, Israel was using Amazon technologies in its war on Gaza, tracking Palestinians in Gaza using #Amazon Web Services
LOL Elon Musk censored my post saying "DEATH TO THE IDF" for being "violent speech". That's fucking insane. They're censoring posts for saying death to the genocidal Israeli rape-army. Musk is such a cucked Zionist slave bitch
This isn't really an answer to your question, but psychiatrist Arthur Kleinman came up with 8 assessment questions for asking patients to describe their conditions. The questions are designed to allow for cultural or spiritual explanations outside of the typical Western medical model.
What do you call your problem? What name does it have?
What do you think caused your problem?
Why do you think it started when it did?
What does your sickness do to you? How does it work?
How severe is your sickness? How long do you expect it to last?
What do you fear most about your illness?
What are the biggest problems that your illness has caused for you?
What kind of treatment do you think you should receive? What are the most important results you hope to receive from treatment?

A reminder that Pride was an uprising against police surveillance and violence, particularly of and against trans folks, sex workers, and People of the Global Majority. It was called Gay Liberation Day before it was called Pride.
Good review. Comes on the heels of a former "friend" accusing me of anti-Semitism because I called Bibi the BUTCHER a nazi for his war crimes and genocide. If the shoe fits....
Remember when #MeToo died around 5 years ago because Joe Biden was accused of raping his sister in the toilet or something and everyone was informed that #BelieveAllWomen is now #FuckThemLyingBitches?
I’ve been using Apple products since 2007. I’ve stuck with the platform through a lot—hardware changes, locked-down software, design regressions, and tools that feel like they were made deliberately harder to use. Lately, that frustration has boiled over, especially with things like the Shortcuts app, where basic actions are buried behind hidden menus and UI behavior seems to change based on factors you can’t even see. Autocorrect is turned on in automation fields. Logic paths vanish if you tap out of order. It’s absurd.
But this isn’t just a complaint about one app. It feels like Apple has shifted from enabling users to controlling them, even when you’re trying to stay fully within the system. What used to be intuitive is now opaque. And despite that, many of us still use Apple products because they’re often better than the alternatives. We’re just tired of pretending everything is fine.
So I’m wondering: is there any interest in a Lemmy community for Apple users who want to talk openly about what’s broken, what could be improved, and how to make things work better? I don’t care whether you’ve been using Macs since the Classic or just got your first iPhone. If you’re frustrated, curious, skeptical, or hopeful, you’re welcome. The goal is a space for real discussion, including ideas, suggestions, and brainstorming. Not for constant complaining, (although it is getting more and more difficult), but something more thoughtful, even if occasionally a little cathartic. Also welcome are any positive discoveries or revelations that the group would appreciate.
If that sounds like something you’d want to be part of, let me know. I’ll start the community if there’s interest. (Also, should I cross-post this somewhere?)

I dont think you truly love something you cannot have reasonable criticisms of that are seperate from your involvement or overall tolerance for it
Obviously that should inform the extent to which you expose yourself to potential harm but you can find ways to synergize your interests to the effect that they will have a stake in doing right by you as well as themself, although that often involves being a squeaky wheel and vocal
Sometimes. I might get halfway through the comments and see that someone has shared something from their post history that paints them in a different light.
"Aujourd'hui, on va vous parler de guerre, évidemment. On va vous parler de propagande de guerre. Israël bombarde toujours, Israël crée des famines, Israël tire sur des populations affamées qu'elle entend de toutes façons déporter. Le génocide se poursuit à Gaza. En plus, Israël a ouvert un nouveau front contre l'Iran avec l'appui des États-Unis. Pourtant, le vent semblait avoir tourné pour Israël. Ses partenaires européens commençaient à douter. Les Français avaient haussé le ton, tout comme les Anglais. Les Allemands eux-mêmes osaient émettre des critiques, c'est dire."

@jeffreyatucker Can no one shut down NPR? I just took at short ride in the car and thought I would listen and got a huge lecture of the thriving of the Gender Queer Hispanic Community and how they are reinventing Spanglish to use gender-neutral language with non-binary appeal. It was one of the craziest things I've ever heard.

A #Haaretz investigation revealed today that the army issued instructions to deliberately shoot Palestinians near aid distribution centers. Although we know this, the report includes terrifying testimonies. One soldier who stood out to me said: " #Gaza is no longer of interest to anyone. It has become a place with its own laws. The killing of people there is nothing, not even an 'unfortunate incident,' as they once said."
Since the heat and humidity just won’t let up, here comes the Ice Man!
Apparently the ladies used to think these guys were hot. 😏
In his autobiography Timebends, Arthur Miller recalls an occupation lost in time – that of the ice man, who wore “leather vests and a wet piece of sackcloth slung over the right shoulder, and once they had slid the ice into the box, they invariably slipped the sacking off and stood there waiting, dripping, for their money.”
The ice trade revolutionised the meat, vegetable and fruit industries in the 19th century, enabled significant growth in the fishing industry, and encouraged the introduction of a range of new drinks and foods. At the height of its trade, ice, as it happens, was once America’s largest export after cotton.

La ligne existe toujours, elle.
just took a spear point to my face... my opponent‘s pop thrust was so powerful it smashed the steel mesh of my fencing mask into my cheek, breaking skin and drawing blood. going to be swollen for awhile 🤕
for sure, no stranger to bruises from HEMA. just shocked still to experience for the first time what is called “waffling” where the mesh of a fencing mask smashes into the face 😩
when the spear or staff is in a guard position, but one hand quickly slides down the shaft and the other hand pops the point forward with surprising distance. dunno if that makes sense
right after taking the concussive hit, felt throbbing pain on my right side of the face. i put ice on my cheek and feels a lot better now but still tingly. i’m not upset about the fight itself or hold it against my opponent, but I don’t want to explain the inevitable bruising at work or to my dancing instructor for example 😭
