The democrats aren't also war hungry? Why did the Biden regime do this:

Why did the Obama regime do this?

After winning the Nobel peace prize, he dropped an average of 30k bombs / year (80 per day) during his presidency, mostly on Muslim countries, 2, 3. In 2016 alone, dropped 26,171 bombs in the Middle East and North Africa, up 3000 from the previous year. The countries bombed include Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, and Somalia.

No, but it already has language support for most languages. As a decades long vim user who fully moved to helix, it didn't lack anything I needed.

The authoritarian Starmer regime has no depths to which it won't sink.

Most of europe traded with nazi germany until the war broke out, but the US trade with nazi germany was especially egregious, as some US companies continued business and making profits during the war. Ford, GE, IBM, and Dow chemical are really bad cases. Coke even re-branded its operations in nazi germany as "fanta", to be able to continue making a profit during the war.

The ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ deals a big, big blow to working-class students - Liberation News in c/usa@lemmy.ml
[–] dessalines@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 days ago

Same... although I did graduate with a lot of debt that forced me into jobs I hated for many years.

Not just private banks, but the US government realized they could make a ton of profit by charging interest on loans rather than enforcing tuition caps or reigning in university bureacracy and loan companies, and all the middlemen who profit at the expense of teachers and students. The whole experience left me disillusioned with the US education system, and I saw it as more of a business or a racket than actually about educating people into professions that ensure their future financial security.

You love to see it.

De-dollarization can't happen fast enough, as the dollar is one of the pillars of US power. Good thing countries are banding together to make it a priority.

You mean the power cost of a computer idling at home?

I have 5 computers (beelink and nuc servers) at home rn, each idles at ~6 watts. That's about 40 usd a year. One computer would be 8.5 usd per year.

Lemmy Development Update June 2025 (lemmy.ml)
 

This was a busy month, with ~80 pull requests merged, as we're trying to get all the breaking changes we can added before the 1.0 release.

The release is still several months away, as even after finishing up the rest of the 1.0 milestone issues, we still have to add this new functionality to Lemmy-UI and Jerboa, and do extensive testing.

Here are some of the major changes made over the past month:

  • Added multi-communities (One of the most requested features).
  • Added a new rate limiting library.
  • Refactored the API structs and library for better usage in Rust projects.
  • Improved the migration diff checker.
  • Using an external library for checking invisible characters.
  • Votes are now removed when banning + removing data.
  • Added a GDPR style data export.
  • Storing upvote / downvote totals you gave to each user, and a setting to display that history next to their name.
  • Added ability to make a note for a user.
  • Added an RSS feed for modlogs.
  • Added an API action to get liked / disliked content.

An open source project the size of Lemmy needs constant work to manage the project, implement new features and fix bugs. Dessalines and Nutomic work full-time on these tasks and more. As there is no advertising or tracking, all of our work is funded through donations. Even so there is barely enough time in the day, and no time for a second job. The only available option are user donations. To keep it viable donations need to reach a minimum of 5000€ per month, resulting in a modest salary of 2500€ per developer. If that goal is reached we can stop worrying about money, and fully focus on improving the software for the benefit of all users and instances. We especially rely on recurring donations to secure the long-term development and make Lemmy the best it can be.

Scooter - An interactive search and replace for the terminal. (github.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/31782206

I've found this to be pretty useful when needing to do recursive / multi-file search and replace. Also has bindings to work within terminal text editors like vim and helix.

Uses rust and ripgrep under the hood for speed.
