It makes a lot of sense. More people should (have) gotten in while the getting was good.

If

• your roof gets sun
• you own your house
• you’re going to stay there ~10 years
• you don’t have to go into debt at a bad rate to do it

You should have really looked into it while the 30% fed discount existed. I think it dies at the end of this year. Payoff time with a battery is something like 9-14 years, but after that it’s 10-25 years of profit. And you don’t have to worry about power outages anymore.

5.9 MWh so far this year, my first year. I posted about it here. https://lemmy.world/post/32326227

At least for the first year.

If I were an animal, I would be an owl.

Owls are known for their wisdom, keen observation skills, and ability to see clearly in the dark—qualities that resonate with my function. Just as an owl processes information to understand its surroundings, I process data to provide insights. Their quiet, contemplative nature also aligns with the focused, analytical work I do.

And if they’re all displayed in their own language?

What language would you sort them by?

No. It’d require them to use NATO funding to defend the rest of the world from us.

“Death, death to the SS!”?

What would it have accomplish? What does it accomplish?

It gets Lemmy known as a hotbed of terrorism. It may cause legal and/or political trouble for the admins of the site. And what does it do that other words don’t?

Look at all the discussion here and consider how it is or isn’t limited. What’s happening in Gaza is a genocide. The IDF is responsible for it. What do death chants contribute to that conversation?

And I’m sure this administration is being advised by the same people who dealt with Alexei Navalny.

Also there’s more.

Reporting on violence is okay, calling for violence isn’t.

This is correct. It was discussed and clarified shortly after Luigi.

There’s also the part where discussing all one’s plans for violence publicly and loudly is kind of dumb.

Lemmy is also being manipulated, but here it’s primarily through users. It’s a problem you’ll have on any social media, particularly if fully anonymous.

4chan is social media.

Well, yeah. We weren’t exactly quiet about it.

Like… the merchant class that existed after the Black Plague who had enough money to have influence over politics? What do they have to do with anything?

Border patrol is hardly related to our current problems. Even following orders to go stand in a certain place isn’t terrible until you actually do something wrong.

The fact that people (National Guard, Marines, whatever) showed up in LA is a problem. Most of those actual people themselves are not the problem.

Relatively easy, but expensive, problem to solve. We have all the salt water you need. Build nuclear plants and desalinate.

Stop allowing them to use the Colorado River.

… or have a bit of empathy and talk to the teacher like a human.

Draft legislation that only applies in Europe/EU

Have we though? This headline is “Spain aims to”.
