Indeed. Some Ukranians collaborated with Russia and presumably some still do…

North Carolina, it is a year.

Huh. Look at that, another toxic user to block.

are named after a deleted song from Disney’s Aladdin movie

I…

(According to wikipedia: yes, this checks out.)

The Proud Boys, an American far-right neo-fascist group, derived their name from the song.

This is definitely the weirdest fucking timeline.

Well then thank goodness they’d never lie for their own gain.

So stop using them. Google has been worse and worse for at least a decade.

I mean, those are your own arbitrary limits. That’s fine, more power to ya, but it means you’ll do without it. Meanwhile i used mine for 15 years of travel and the only thing wrong with it is the rubbery outside of the ANC block has come off, is purely cosmetic. Still works as good as new.

Damn, you’re right. For many years I used the Bose Quiet Comfort 20, but those aren’t made anymore. There are still some options but none of them look great. The major brands just stopped making them. Ironically the first pair I found was USB-C with an adapter.

You need to curb your pathetic ego

No one murdered your puppy. Take a deep breath.

You evidently lack even a cursory understanding of the topic. Disliking AI is not a good enough reason to be a jackass to everyone.

Let’s fucking go!

My favorite book is probably my most prized possession. It is also out of print and signed by the author who is now long dead.

I like to think of myself as peaceful and not overly attached to possessions, but if someone burned that book, I’d be hard-pressed.

And because you haven’t found them, they must not exist?

You’re not “everyone who disagrees with me”, you’re one of a few on Lemmy who are consistently CCP apologists. In this case, your being so open about it is kind of refreshing.

So I will keep pointing out your agenda when you comment on fraught geopolitical issues, such as this.

Lol. Out of curiousity, do wumao get paid like weekly or is it per comment?

Nah, I was referring to June 1989 and of course the Uyghur genocide in Xianjiang which is ongoing today. But the CCP can’t even handle it being talked about online much less written about in actual printed books.

When they stop blocking history from the Internet of an entire country, then we can talk about censorship . Until then, you aren’t very credible.

edit: for the dear reader, what I am doing here is basically just whataboutism, which I generally try to avoid. But my interlocutor has been all over Lemmy whatabouting in defense of the CCP, so I felt compelled to respond in kind.

Right because your beloved CCP would never censor any books, right? lol

They’re just being an ass about your writing.

They make both.

edit: insult was unnecessary.

What? My 20 years of flying regularly with 3.5mm headphones must have been a very long hallucination.

Eh. At least it looks like it’s daytime. If it were on a redeye, I’d vote to push him out the nearest hatch.
