It blows my mind what Putin keeps getting away with. Nukes? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"Stand your ground" means you can use lethal force if masked, unidentified men don't leave your house or threaten you in your car. Wondering when we'll have the first case already... in c/politics@lemmy.world

For all their whistleblowing about the scary gangs, these goons don't seem to be targeting those gangs.

Hegseth wants all these discussions to run through a company's servers. In this administration's tree of stupid shit, this is just another leaf.

Maybe (OK, this won't happen, but I like to imagine it would), someone will figure out how to use one of the hundreds of chat programs that are out there, github or wherever, and get that going. Still able to be social with their group, without having all the bullshit social decline that comes from using the big chat platforms.

Right wingers are freaking idiots. I wouldn't let anything that comes from that bunch of xenophobic, racist, strong-man-loving turds. Asking a right winger to explain their viewpoint will just make you feel dumber. Why are you even caring what some stupid, inbred, shallow-thinking bigots think or say?

Gavin Newsom Wants a 'Big Tent Party,' But Opposes Wealth Tax Supported by Large Majority of Americans in c/usa@midwest.social
[–] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The dems always seem to use bad Republicans as an excuse to put not-quite-as-bad dems in office. I've been worried Gavin would be the DNC pick for years now. Strong choice, if you don't really want anything to change. Aside from not being as bad a trump. A low bar, but one the DNC will probably trip over.

At one time I remember thinking, in my naïveté, that Americans actually valued scientists and progress. Silly me.

Video/Photo work flow suggestion wanted (sopuli.xyz)

I've never had to organize much in the way of videos/photos, until now. I'm going on a trip for a month or two and want to organize the pictures and videos I will be taking. I'm interested in datestamps and tags more than anything. Does anyone have a workflow that works for them? Any apps that make this easier that I haven't heard of?

EDIT: I'm wondering about things like, downloading media from my camera and having something sort it all in a schema of my choosing. Maybe other things that I don't know enough to even wonder. Or, maybe there is no there there.

How to download or just watch a threads link (sopuli.xyz)
 

Buddy of mine sent me what he describes as a disturbing video from his hometown. It's a threads link. I generally use yt-dlp or just straight mpv from the CLI and most things work. I can't see this, on my computer, or my crap phone. Does anyone know a trick or something for accessing this content. No I won't make a threads account. Here's the link, for what it's worth:

ISP throttling VPN? (sopuli.xyz)

My ISP seems to be throttling my VPN connection. Just started a week or so ago. Anyone have any tips for correcting this shit?

Edit: Sorry, I didn't leave much info. I guess I was thinking in more general terms. I use PIA, have for years. I've tried to change protocols and ports, my VPN speed still sits around 10K. Just ridiculous. Speed test without VPN:

collapsed inline media

SOLVED!! OK, I'm an absolute idiot. The tl;dr I had accidentally toggled the Toggle Alt. Rate Limits setting. Thank you everyone for attempting to help that which couldn't be helped!
