Eurovision has always been deeply political, despite their official line.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump Offers U.S. Citizenship to 32 Million Venezuelans
2·22 days agoIrrelevant. He’s hoping Venezuelans are desperate and stupid enough to somehow apprive this. A democratic process would legitimise this internationally.
ICE clearly doesn’t care about passports, they go by
skin colouraccents. Only super rich Venezuelans that are willing to participate in the exploitation of theirfellowformer citizens might make it to the continental US.Trump just wants the oil. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_proven_oil_reserves

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is everyone doing to survive this food inflation?

Incredible recipe and truly simple, you can save on the oil and skip the drizzle over the top and it will still come out nice.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is everyone doing to survive this food inflation?
3·23 days agoYes, lentils are a decent substitute and quite healthy. I also tried soy chunks that you soak in broth for some time before adding to the sauce. These will benefit from a lot of time in the sauce and then are quite nice and a bit chunkier than lentils.
Neither will be as good as the original ground pork/beef that goes in a proper Italian bolognese. But I do like both versions enough to make a meat free version 8/10 times

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is everyone doing to survive this food inflation?
1·23 days agoMac and Cheese, Bean Chili (no meat), Cucumber Salad and peach (or any fruit) cobbler are some cost effective dishes you could make that should be popular enough. Most can come out of a can.
Also bring some containers and prep yourself a nice lunch or dinner for the next day.
Talking to your manager about your financial situation is still a good call. Any reasonable manager should report the need for salary increases of employees struggle to entertain a pot luck. All the best to you!

4·23 days agoThat sounds like a fun game but I hardly see the need to pay $20 and use a dedicated app.
Shared notes (Joplin, iCloud, Google Doc, plenty free options) and a group call on Signal will do the same.

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•‘It’s literally going to break me.’ Commuting is now unaffordable for some American workersEnglish
1·24 days agoHow I feel is irrelevant, but thank you for protesting. Getting out there regularly is important and may encourage others to join you.
I believe we will all get through this, the question is how much unjust suffering and death needs to happen first.
Now that’s just wasteful.
You must not waste the batteries in scooters, the gold in flock cameras or the ram in data centers. I believe Jesus said this. Now pray with me

2·24 days agoYou are right, no matter the colour of your skin or the minority group you belong to, most people prefer kicking down.
Let’s not tax billionaires, I’ll be one next week. Humans are terrible at self awareness and we have been stripped of solidarity by algorithms on top of that.
On small scales (towns, communities) solidarity works. That’s why we should work on reconnecting. Meet your neighbours, join a club. Maybe this is what also helped Mamdani? I sure hope the US will figure this out, Bernie is too old now but AOC would make a wonderful leader.

1·24 days agoI still see a small chance to reverse this, if only the rest of the world wouldn’t continue sucking up to this criminal government.

1·24 days agoThere was plenty critique for Orbán here, I really cannot stand the whataboutism this comment shows.
We have our problems in Europe as well that we need to takle quickly and decisively. If Trump gets away with shit there is someone else in the world taking note, it’s a preview of what may come for us soon.
My original comment is in part frustration but also a genuine question. People being driven into existential crises just sucking it up and taking on a 4th job? I would have beheaded Ronald McDonald long before.

3·25 days agoSadly you are probably right. The only decent ones speaking up are AOC and Bernie, and they have been yelling into the void for many years now.
But the large majority has nothing to hide, is white and is not affected until it’s too late. First they come for the…

2·25 days agoThe article is about the US.
But since you mention him, Orbán was plenty bad, afaik he acted largely within the law. Like the gerrymandering in the US that disenfranchises minority voters. And as I said, Trump acts outside the law in addition to all the fucked up stuff they’re doing by the book.

50·25 days agoI’m patiently waiting to see what else it takes for Americans to overthrow this government.
From his pedophile ring to unlawful executive orders, wars, tariffs… Trump keeps breaking the law and acts outside their beloved constitution. All with consent from the majority in both ruling parties, either by direct support ® or silence (D).

Europe@feddit.org•In addition to longer-lasting replaceable batteries I wanted to suggest some other stuffEnglish
2·26 days agoLet’s do it!! Pick your favourites (or all) and write your MP or other political representative. Also contact the companies you do business with to encourage them to follow along. Sovereignty as security to continue operations can be a good argument. It can help to address your mail to the IT department, hopefully they understand your concerns.

Technology@lemmy.world•Apple’s AirPods with cameras for AI are apparently close to productionEnglish
2·29 days agoIt’s Apple, it will most likely run “on device” - so the iPhone the airpods are connected to in this case


Do what you can, most can stop buying from major chains and buy electronics unrelated to Israel, switch to FOSS software and not watch Eurovision.
