@NOT_RICK @downpunxx #fckputin would new need leverage over luka. I doubt it. Yes, would be a 'reverse kursk' move to bind ua forces, but luka can't be so utterly stupid. He neighbours NATO countries. 90% nothing happens. 10%: oh boy

Quit atting everyone just write your comment

They may be coming from somewhere other than Lemmy (Mastodon?) and this format is more acceptable and/or normalized for them. One of the quirks of the fediverse.

This is Lemmy, they oughta get right for Lemmy, as I should for whatever they got there.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It literally just works this way. There's no way to post onto Lemmy from Mastodon without doing this as far as I know.

Messy content is messy content

[–] unconfirmedsourcesDOTgov@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't disagree, but telling individual commenters to do better isn't going to work when the technology fundamentally doesn't allow for it.

If you feel quite strongly about it, you could always open an issue with the Lemmy devs or the Mastodon devs.

Otherwise I feel like you'll just come off as kind of a jerk?

Grandpa complaining about foreign accents energy.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee -2 points 2 weeks ago

Meh so be it.

If an instance or platform had a no swearing rule but our posts automatically injected swear words, they'd probably take issue with it. It's just junk process.

(Obviously no one cares about swearing that's not the point, just an example.)

@'ing people is weird and I'm fine being an old man about it

[–] luciferofastora@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh look, it took me all of a half second to skip over the @s and read the message! What inconvenience!

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee -5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Obviously that's not the issue, it's just poor etiquette

[–] psud@aussie.zone 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

So complain to the developers that make mastodon work that way. Complaining here is worse than useless, no one here can do anything about it

They could edit their comment or go away

[–] Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

or go away

One of the only true 'responsibilities' of Lemmy users is to conduct themselves in a manner that encourages user participation. This is not that and you are getting close to harrassement territory.

Drop it, and complain to the Lemmy/Mastodon devs.

Does MFA stand for Mother Fucking Army?

Translated to the lingo of the American south I think it might read something like:

Oh, sweet summer child, bless your heart. Run along, now, and clean up your toys.

Not knowing how these things normally work I'd just kindof assumed it was generally polite if not outright agreed upon that one doesn't leave weapons sitting pointed at one's neighbours 🤔 🤷 Maybe I think too much of hunams 😅

The USA establish military bases INSIDE other's territory

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 19 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Usually (though there are some exceptions) with their permission. It's usually to extend the range and decrease the response time of the US military, but it's also to bolster allies. They also bring a lot of business to those areas as the deployed soldiers leave base frequently to live life. They aren't hostile (to the host).

[–] Taalen@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

Not only with their permission. In many cases at the request of the host country. Plenty of countries would like to host a US base.

We didn't ask Germany and Japan IIRC my 20th century history.

[–] h3mlocke@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

You cracked the case

[–] figaro@lemdro.id 2 points 2 weeks ago

In South Korea, the soldiers have a curfew imposed by the base and Korean government because of the high frequency of rape.

My personal experience with soldiers in South Korea and Japan have been... Mostly negative. They are arrogant shitheads most of the time.

All of that said, I understand that isn't a US policy issue, more than a military culture issue.

…but not greater than the firing range of Ukraine’s systems, just in case.
