The DPRK has nukes. Why would they suffer an invasion or bombardment? There's no war against Korea that isn't nuclear.

Ah well what can you do? The hit squad did the best they could do, they went to where they thought it was they were sent and killed the target, come on it's an honest mistake.

That is dope.

Certainly don't want a pop-up. But the way the layout is designed can help communicate such things. On that same page is a Firefox logo. I really wouldn't read the Firefox logo as something that is dynamically loaded. So what sets that apart from the sponsored links?

I don't mind ads (though I turned them off), to me what makes me upset about these sponsored links is that they feel like they're violating my space. I wasn't communicated clear terms for them.

Are they being downloaded from the internet? I didn't ask you to download ads from the internet. Can they change? Who's responsible for changing them? I don't want Google, Amazon and Adidas to have a direct line of communication with my browser. Is that paranoid? Yeah probably, it's almost certainly updated together with the rest of Firefox, but it wasn't communicated to me, so it feels violating.
I'd sooner accept much larger ads if they looked more static. Mozilla probably feels these look pretty static, but they definitely could look more static.

I see. Then perhaps I should change my answer to a top notch frontend for Goldfish

Do any mechanisms exist for letting users discover communities on other instances? Especially brand new ones.

For this I would like to know if there are any things that [are] still unclear now.

I'm registered on Lemmygrad. Lemmygrad and Lemmy are federated, I see this post. How come I can't see all Lemmy.ml communities? Is that Lemmygrad's decision? Is that something I could override with a different Lemmy client, but without having to register in the Lemmy.ml instance?
As reference, the community librewolf is not accessible from Lemmygrad.ml.

Why does anyone watch Linus Tech Tips? I watched his hot takes videos for context and he comes off as such an idiot. Last time his name made the rounds was when he was surprised deleting his desktop graphics makes the computer start up in text mode. (In that video, he had to dismiss several warnings, including one that made him type out with words exactly what he wanted to happen, and then complained he wasn't warned...) But he has like 5 million subscribers.

I also didn't really think RMTransit's rebuttal was very strong. He barely addressed the main issue of Klanadian cities being too spread out and lacking in services and destination density.

One thing he said is that if you build a bike network, people will start using it, and the quality of the individual bike paths is something that should be addressed afterwards. But I disagree strongly, if the bike path is unsafe or unpleasant, it doesn't matter how theoretically complete the network is, no one will want to use it twice. In Europe, we don't have bike networks. We have safe streets and pleasant streets. People try really hard to avoid biking next to car traffic. Car noise is probably the main reason anyone has to avoid biking.

The main point of it not being too late stands. But again, he argues this by talking about Amsterdam (one globally small city) in the 60s and contrasting it to today. But he characterises that comparison as a 30 year project. It isn't, it's 50 years, and in the 50 years that have elapsed, Vancouver has continued to develop towards cars. Amsterdam in the 60s had fewer giant viaducts, it had denser neighbourhoods, more corner stores, it didn't have any massive urban sprawl. It does get harder if you pivot later. Just because they managed in 30 years doesn't mean the same effort and approaches would fix Vancouver in 30 years. Not to mention Amsterdam is very far from good right now.

I feel a lot of western-left, liberal YouTubers are very afraid of rallying behind new technology and radical redevelopment. It makes sense, because if you live in a capitalist country, a massive redevelopment project will inevitably be usurped by capital interest. But asking for smaller and smaller concessions isn't a solution either.

Hej, this is difficult to troubleshoot from the information you shared. If you take a screenshot, you can copy/paste it into a Lemmy comment, perhaps posting screenshots would help describe the problem.

Then you should link the UN published version. Even if VOA says their source is the UN, that doesn't guarantee that there is a source, and if the source exists, it might be completely misrepresented.
