Physical media is massive for the global south and generally more impoverished people, you can buy used game discs much cheaper. Another reason why forced always-online for single player games is terrible, multiple reasons, but if you are poor you have less access to reliable data. If you are of lower wealth you more likely have less storage space and slower internet speeds also which makes it more inconvenient. I agree with the idea of digital only in that it takes less resources to produce but it benefits the corporate profits while hurting already disadvantaged people.

Another argument separate is preservation of media. By removing physical media publishers can maintain control of the property and cause the loss of media which could have historic, social or educational value. It would still be possible to preserve the data but with more difficulty either physically or legally.

If our country needs to elect rapist, war criminal murderers to take down the "bad guys" then the whole system is irredeemable. There are a million other ways we can construct all of this, why are we so endlessly limited by this obviously horrific fucking system?

They are already shooting women in the face point blank, and Trump calls the shooter a hero and the victim a domestic terrorist. Burn this motherfucker down.

People can say whatever they want but we don't cater to bootlickers here, they can go fuck themselves. Why should we allow comments from people who want me dead? Their fascist bullshit is allowed basically anywhere else, they can go to reddit.

Euro-Med Monitor’s field team documented Israeli forces opening fire on thousands of civilians gathered at dawn today, Sunday, 1 June 2025, in Tel al-Sultan, Rafah, near an aid distribution centre established by the Israeli army. Preliminary data indicate that the attack killed at least 31 civilians, including two women, and injured more than 200 others. Several remain missing.

Eyewitnesses interviewed by Euro-Med Monitor reported that the US-backed organisation brings only limited quantities of aid while directing tens of thousands of Palestinians to a high-risk distribution area, where Israeli forces open fire with live ammunition and tank shells. Those who survive and reach the site often find the aid insufficient, forcing desperate competition over the scarce supplies.

Nah he's still loved, I've seen Luigi prayer candles and grafitti plenty, he still receives massive amounts of fanmail. When the actual trial starts the fans will come out more.

“Every single signatory to this letter treated children in Gaza who suffered violence that must have been deliberately directed at them. Specifically, every one of us on a daily basis treated pre-teen children who were shot in the head.”

I can't load it, only from this instance can I see the posts and no images. Did the Biden-Harris mafia finally take it down?

Thank you to the voters that said the dbzer0 posters are cool, though someone said something like "I never noticibly noticed any user from that comm" and I feel personally affronted

I love imagining these birds having friends online they can call up whenever haha. Pet birds suffer from loneliness very often so this is fun to see.

The fun thing is it can be both! It's like anti-Black antisemetic conspiracies, the BLM protests were just minorites trickes by Jewish overlords. The students are stupid and brainwashed by the evil Islamic terrorists.

Dang, only "slightly injured".

There should be some kind of punishment for knowingly arresting people you can't charge with a crime. This has happened at numerous protests for years, dozens of people arrested, released without a single charge.

Isn't false imprisonment or abduction a crime? The police use this as a disruption tactic, they don't care about the likelihood of actual charges.

Even as a child I heard that and was like "They hate us because of our freedom? That doesn't make any sense at all, they said we bombed them? That seems more likely the reason"

Unfortunately not the best quality out there of this, if you're a fan I recommend looking for the whole album(1973). I can't recall where I downloaded it is but it is available somewhere with the right search

Small detail some might miss, one of the editorial board signatures is Ted Kaczynski.

Brilliant paragraph:

“What of the tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians killed before this attack?” some may ask. Our response is simply that we aren’t going to engage with that because it would be too hard. We also won’t be addressing Palestinians living in refugee camps without access to clean water, electricity, or housing. Others may ask, “Isn’t it your responsibility to provide context, particularly on thorny issues such as this one?” To that, we merely say: No, shut up. You’re being annoying.

Sorry if this isn't the best place for this question, I browse from lemmy.dbzer0 on firefox and am subscribed to a number of hexbear instances, but there seems to be some that just won't show up from my instance for some reason? In particular !literature@hexbear.net, for whatever reason if I search it just will not show up, other hexbear instances show up fine though. I'm not sure which might not appear other than literature.

Does anyone know if this is caused by my client, my instance, or the literature community limiting it's visibility? I'm a bit new to how the fediverse infrastructure functions.

**EDIT: Thank you for the help y'all, I still haven't got to it lol, I might try FumpyAer's suggestion and maybe it will help others that might have this issue.
