Meanwhile here in italy when a major company fails and goes bankrupt because of shitty management, corruption and greed, we first "save" it with public funds, then sell it to someone else to profit off of it

Compare it to the steam deck (a bit more pricey, but can also run emulators). If you want a more polished nintendo-like experience however, the switch is probably not a bad purchase (consider you have to add to it the hefty cost nintendo puts on their games and the fee for playing online, if you want to).

So you basically slowly build your own reddit-like bubble by removing what you don't want to see (or disagree with)... Doesn't it go intuitively against the idea of "federating" with other communities?

Of course, the difference with lemmy is that you become your own censor, while on reddit the admins have control over everything; on paper this definitely sounds the more "freedom option" but I am afraid it's just going to lead to compartmentization in bubbles that don't talk to each others at all. And I'm not talking about spam or outright offensive idiots, I am talking about opinions you don't like.

Interesting that he chooses to say the people having a genocide done on them need to surrender

Huh he didnt say this about the people in Gaza, what are you talking about?

Yeah if incivility is in the rules it should be enforced for everyone.

Sorry to ask but since you keep using that word, what does tankie has to do with putin? Wasn't it something about the soviet union?

What you are saying might be true as well but given your uncivil comment history i am pretty sure a mod "being tankie" is not the reason you are silenced in those communities...

  1. Had your same exact issue, and after jumping through hand-made solutions and countless clients i finally found a client that works perfectly out of the box for screen sharing with audio, has no other issues and comes with the big plus of having customization plugins Vesktop (i think its on flathub too so if your distro ships that probably get it from there).
  2. Had the same issue here too and yes, while my "main" game got recently proton verified and i could finally get totally rid of windows, there are some few (BattleEye mostly) games with no anticheat support.

I agree, China has been fueling conflicts in modern times like no other country in the world. Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Cuba, Ukraine, N&S Korea... (The list is too long to even be written down). Chinese secret services have always been mendeling around for the interest of big chinese corporations and weapon sales. Let's remember how they also tried to invade their geographical neighbour Taiwan in '61 in whats today remembered as "The bay of pigs invasion" (look it up on wikipedia), just because they were politically aligned with us (and they should be free to do so!); simply inacceptable and outlaw by our international laws.

Not to mention how with its powerful army the CPC imposes its control over the world's trade, even on the other side of the world, where they clearly have no business in controlling it.

Not to mention africa, where after hundres of years of stealing african resources, the Chinese are now upset that we are actually building their infrastructure and instead complain that those countries will have to repay the debt to us (duh, we arent doing it for free!). It's so ironic that after thousand years of chinese colonization it must be us treating african countries like actual political partners rather than broke savages to just send aids and charity etc.

God, this is obviously possible due to the fact that in China, there is no democracy, but a one-party system that always stays in power. I don't understand why they are not smart enough to at least pretend there is two parties (that would actually be the same, obviously) to give the people and the international press the impression of a functioning democracy (like here in the west, where we can choose between tens of parties that don't radicalize on idiotic minor non-issues to pretend to be different but actually all doing the same interests).

What components are you talking about? Can you provide some sort of source or reference or something? Are you maybe talking about the data modem?
