1·2 months agoi would be surprised if it is true that “If you don’t remove that it shows your personal account to anyone who receives it so that they can chat directly with you”, and a search just now didn’t find anything to substantiate that.It’s a very recent change
is it though? if so, how do you actually find out the profile name from thesiparameter?obviously tracking parameters from URLs should be removed in any case, but afaict only google can use this to find which user generated the link.after some more reading i found conflicting reports but i think this might actually be happening; apparently it is only visible in the app?
11·3 months agowhich music genres do you like?
Did you not read the post? OP clearly says:
I ran the numbers and I like every single music genre pretty much equally
😂
They absolutely eat bread
By “they don’t” the person you’re replying to means “they shouldn’t”.
Search for “bread” and “birds” to find thousands of web pages explaining why bread is bad for birds and you should not feed it to them.

If you think China colonized Xinjiang, well… yeah, they did. But that was 22 centuries ago, a millennium before the [people now known as] Uyghurs had even arrived there. The demographics and ruling empires unsurprisingly changed a few times in the ensuing millennia, but since the Qing dynasty committed the Dzungar genocide there (from 1755–1758, with help of several peoples including Han and Uyghur) it has mostly remained a part of China.
The ancient history is interesting, but more recent events (eg Al-Qaeda-affiliated groups the US has been funding there) are more relevant to the present situation.
I did watch the first three minutes. Everything he shows is true, everything he explains as interpretation is just full of shit.
What specifically is he full of shit about? I recommend watching more than three minutes of it.
i recommend this recent video by Eric Hovagim to learn more about the Uyghur topic (but i guess you’ll probably skip it based on its title?)
As someone helpfully explained to you in that thread:
You’re trying to explain how Israelis’ indifference to Palestinian suffering is valid
also btw my participation in this sub-thread began by replying to your challenging someone to find examples of you “defending the right” and… yeah, the above-linked thread is obvs one of them
for anyone else reading this who might be curious, this is the deleted comment in question and this is the context in which it was posted 🙄
I’m willing to bet genocide apologia was
again, you don’t need to speculate: the modlog is public
the most recent comment you had deleted was for violating rule 1 of !leftymemes@lemmy.dbzer0.com.
before that it was for racism, genocide apologia, etc etc.
i recommend reading your own modlog and reflecting on it.
it’s been well over 6 months since anyone from .ml removed one of your comments; your bigotry lately has instead been getting removed by mods from many other places (including several from your own instance).

i’m an admin so i can see the identities behind mod actions.
(fwiw i just checked and i see that i have personally never moderated you, but i concur with other .ml mods’ previous decisions to do so.)
is there any evidence whatsoever, or is this belief that they simply must have received and suppressed some trump-related smoking gun just blueanon dogma?
they chose to withhold information

afaik WikiLeaks still enjoys a spotless accuracy record and obviously has never promoted QAnon.
The fact that some QAnon promoters have themselves cited some WikiLeaks publications is, in my opinion at least, not a reason to prohibit linking to WikiLeaks (a site which hasn’t published anything new recently but continues to host a massive archive of public interest documents).
Wait until you hear about the Alderney pound, Manx pound, Jersey pound, Guernsey pound, Falkland Islands pound, Gibraltar pound, Saint Helena pound, …
which ones are accepted where is... complicated:
from wikipedia:
Throughout the UK, £1 and £2 coins are legal tender for any amount, with the other coins being legal tender only for limited amounts. Bank of England notes are legal tender for any amount in England and Wales, but not in Scotland or Northern Ireland.
[…]
Bank of England, Scottish, Northern Irish, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Gibraltar, and Falkland banknotes may be offered anywhere in the UK, although there is no obligation to accept them as a means of payment, and acceptance varies. For example, merchants in England generally accept Scottish and Northern Irish notes, but some unfamiliar with them may reject them.[142] However, Scottish and Northern Irish notes both tend to be accepted in Scotland and Northern Ireland, respectively. Merchants in England generally do not accept Jersey, Guernsey, Manx, Gibraltarian, and Falkland notes but Manx notes are generally accepted in Northern Ireland.[143] Bank of England notes are generally accepted in the Falklands and Gibraltar, but for example, Scottish and Northern Irish notes are not.[144] Since all of the notes are denominated in sterling, banks will exchange them for locally issued notes at face value,[145][failed verification] though some in the UK have had trouble exchanging Falkland Islands notes.[146]

You asked a question and answered it yourself?
I posted the 10 points according to one source and then said
There are many varied but similar versions of these points circulating elsewhere
fwiw the first and last images in this post both were first published in this USA today article back in April, attributed to anonymous crew members of the USS Tripoli and USS Abraham Lincoln.
