Sorry, but Nexus Mods is entirely too big to play stupid games and risk getting sued.

I missed the fishing boat bullying russians. I only remember irish fishing boats refusing to when the russians wanted to hold wargames near ireland.

Probably smart to take it down. What he did could be construed as hacking.

To be pedantic, one is a simple news message, the other seems to be the headline of a longer article or opinion piece. I bet you can find a simple news message of Russia closing news stations.

The fearmongering about getting mistreated in ukrainian captivity must be incredibly strong. If my position had been made by drones, I'd either move or surrender, because the 2nd drone is definitely coming.

Zelenskiy to Push US for NATO Invite, Weapons Guarantees in c/worldnews@lemmy.ml

Russia can claim whatever they like. They started this war. They started it in 2014 and they have escalated in 2022. Ukrainian Nazis weren't and aren't a big issue, certainly not as big as in Russia. The claims that Ukraine was suppressing 'Russian minorities' were completely fabricated. And why is it that that all post-soviet nations seem to be awfully eager to join NATO? Curious. It's almost as if they fear being annexed by Russia. Luckily Russia isn't currently fighting a war of aggression to annex a former soviet country, right?

Explanation on why the attack on Belgorod happened and what it means (www.youtube.com)
 

I think the analysis done in the video is spot-on and I hope that it finds its way into the mainstream media and to the people in power. The only way to not have the Ukraine war spiral into a blood bath even more than it is now, and threaten to pull Europe and by extention the US into the conflict, is to adequately support Ukraine's military, so they can win.

Nach emotionaler Debatte: Grüne stützen verschärfte Asylpolitik (www.tagesschau.de)
 

Vor allem junge Delegierte üben in der Debatte scharfe Kritik an der Asylpolitik der Ampelregierung. "Es ist unehrlich über Begrenzung zu reden, während die Welt in Flammen steht", sagt Vasili Franco, Delegierter aus Berlin. "Liebe Freundinnen und Freunde, ich bitte Euch. Lasst uns nicht schon auf diesem Parteitag einen Kompromiss mit konservativen Kräften verabschieden", drängt Sophia Pott aus Lübeck.

Welche, das schildert auf eindringliche Weise Außenministerin Annalena Baerbock: "Wenn ich mir vorstelle, es geht um jedes Flüchtlingskind in Thessaloniki, soll ich dann sagen, ich kann leider nicht mitverhandeln, das soll jetzt mein ungarischer Kollege alleine machen? Soll Robert das nächste Mal, wenn er bei der MPK [Ministerpräsidentenkonferenz] sitzt, sagen, ich kann da nicht mitverhandeln, das soll jemand anderes machen?" Baerbock fleht regelrecht ihre Parteifreunde an, den Antrag der Grünen Jugend abzulehnen.

Für Russinnen und Russen ist die letzte Rettung das Kirchenasyl (www.tagesschau.de)
 

Die Aussage des Bundeskanzlers, dass russische Kriegsverweigerer Asyl in Deutschland finden werden, gleicht einer Lüge. Vielen Asylanträgern droht die Abschiebung nach dem Dublin-Verfahren.

Whenever I try to respond to Mastodon comments with this account, I only get an endlessly spinning loading circle. From my lemmy.world backup account however I can send the response no problem. Any clue why that is?

Fennec Android App: Set custom download folder? (sh.itjust.works)

I've installed Fennec on my Android 12 device, since it still has about:config accessible. I've been following this old guide from 2014 in order to set a custom download path, however unfortunately without luck. Is it still possible to set the download folder and if it is, what options do I need to set?

I found browser.download.useDownloadDir and have set it to false. I've tried to set browser.download.dir to /storage/C05C-A00E/Test, which is what my file explorer app tells me my sdcard is mounted under, and to /sdcard/Test, which is what the tutorial showed. Both did not work, downloads still land in the default download folder.

Does federation need a rethink? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I think the way federation currently works spells doom for the fediverse, should any service of it get major traction. Currently, if you subscribe to a community on Lemmy or follow a user on Mastodon, your instance will pull the content of that instance/user and make it available for all to see and interact with. What seems like a good idea to spread content however is becomming the achilles heel of the fediverse: The admins of Lemmy/Mastodon instances are liable in many juristictions for the content their servers are distributing. This means in practice that many Lemmy/Mastodon instances block NSFW content for example, as the admins, understandably so, are either unwilling or incapable of making sure they are not running afoul of any laws.

As such, I think that the fediverse needs to offer a way for users to follow content from other instances without having that content be stored, let alone shared by their home instances.

A question I have at this point is where this criticism is best levied against. Is it the job of Lemmy/Mastodon to provide such a form of federation, or does the ActivityPub protocol needs to be ammended?
