Can you just stop mirroring Reddit?

Now I have to block all 50501.

Plenty of red counties in those blue states.

Yeah, there’s no evidence that this is because of tariffs. Companies don’t make big moves like this after only a week of changes.

Is this the same guy from other posts. The one some said he looks like he sells counterfeit Pokémon cards, or something?

Seems like he’s just trolling for the attention.

There’s a good discussion on The Ezra Klein Show from March 1 The Dark Heart of Trump’s Foreign Policy [Apple Podcasts link]

It’s literally how he started the conversation. It’s what he asked to talk about. smh

Could be subsidies in your country. Could be geography of Thailand. When I was there it didn’t strike as the kind of land with expansive dairy ranches. As an example, New Zealand produces almost 20x as much dairy as Thailand.

Guaranteed they will claim victory no matter how much they lose. If they roll back tariffs after agreeing to exactly the same terms as before, they will still claim victory.

I’m not one to body-shame but the audacity of that fat fuck to say this is beyond the pale.

First things first, it's a moderated mailing list with some ads

This is what neighborhoods in my area do but without the ads. Around here there are distinct neighborhoods that have their own names but no official designation. People have, since before social media, set up mailing lists for each neighborhood moderated by one of the residents.

There’s occasional drama but mostly it’s people asking for tradespeople recommendations, curb alerts for furniture or photos of loose pets.

NextDoor-type services have tried to establish a presence but have mostly been ignored.

Maybe it’s the geography or the early adoption of e-mail lists but mailing lists work great around here.

I’d hazard to guess that they got wind that other four are thinking of kicking out the USA and are trying to get ahead of it.

The Five Eyes are supposed to be a bulwark against Russia and, later, terrorists. Now that the USA is aligning with Russia, sharing intel with them doesn’t seem like such a good idea.

I know nothing should surprise me with these fucking people at this point, but my mouth still dropped open when I read that.

Which applies to 99% of people making Delta Chat not a viable alternative to WhatsApp.

The Fediverse has the same problem that Linux, and Open Source in general, struggles with. The barriers to entry and network effects work against widespread adoption.

Until technology is packaged in a way that makes it dead simple and/or unavoidable, people won’t make the effort to move en masse.
