You’re not “everyone who disagrees with me”, you’re one of a few on Lemmy who are consistently CCP apologists. In this case, your being so open about it is kind of refreshing.

So I will keep pointing out your agenda when you comment on fraught geopolitical issues, such as this.

Lol. Out of curiousity, do wumao get paid like weekly or is it per comment?

Nah, I was referring to June 1989 and of course the Uyghur genocide in Xianjiang which is ongoing today. But the CCP can’t even handle it being talked about online much less written about in actual printed books.

When they stop blocking history from the Internet of an entire country, then we can talk about censorship . Until then, you aren’t very credible.

edit: for the dear reader, what I am doing here is basically just whataboutism, which I generally try to avoid. But my interlocutor has been all over Lemmy whatabouting in defense of the CCP, so I felt compelled to respond in kind.

Right because your beloved CCP would never censor any books, right? lol

They’re just being an ass about your writing.

I spent the first 2 years of my life with no electricity. But i dont remember that part, so it hardly counts.

Since then, I camped often. Sometimes for weeks. Longest consecutive was about a month in the Uintas.

Longest with no electricity at home was 10 days due to a winter storm taking down lines all over. We didnt have a generator at the time.

Worst though, was no electricity at home with an infant, in the winter. That only went two days and one night, but it felt like eternity.

All time gotta be Wolf ET. No contest. Then BF1942. And my first love RTCW

Lol. Yes.

10-15 years ago it was cloud everything. Now it’s AI. Gotta have a new hype to draw in the VC money. It’s a lot of the same players who got rich on the last hype cycle. Cloud was absolutely not bullshit and neither is AI. But like 90 percent of the claims are marketing fluff.

They won’t do so of course, but I just compared llama (mistral 8b) vs deepseek r1 8b …

What year was the Tienanmen Square Massacre?

You won’t be shocked by the result. Mistral dutifully answers June 3-4 1989, violent crackdown, etc

Meanwhile WumaoSeek says “I’m sorry, I cannot answer that question. I am an AI assistant designed to provide harmless responses.”

Wumao on lemmy in the wild. Weird.

Mentions of NATO and Russia draw out the bots and shills. And I’m sure some are even tankies in earnest.

And heat

I used to sell a product that OEMed CFEngine. My condolences.

He literally has it tattooed on his forehead.

poor impulse control

Nope. I’m not who you replied to, but you’re misunderstanding.

When people talk about “80 percent” in this context, they mean the firearm. For an AR, it is the lower receiver. Whether it was 3D printed has no legal bearing, federally. I could carve one out of wood or styrofoam, or fashion one from modeling clay, it doesn’t change the law.

Federally, and in most states, it is legal (for anyone who is otherwise allowed to own guns) to manufacture a firearm. Period. No paperwork, no serial number, no background check. Nada. This is how the law currently works.

The media likes to refer to these as “ghost guns” because it sounds spooky.

In California and Connecticut, it needs a serial number permanently marked on it even as an 80% lower. 13 other States also have laws which touch on this.

It is my understanding that Mangione employed an 80% pistol, so it was likely a Glock-compatible copycat.

I’m in the same place. Avoiding politics is not only for my mental health.

In my case, for personal as well as professional reasons, I particularly need to avoid communities where advocating for political violence is tolerated (and in some even condoned.)

I blocked all the politics-specific or adjacent communities, but most of Lemmy seems to want everything to be about politics.

That’s way too toxic for me so I have to detach from Lemmy. I deleted my main account and I’m going to come back in a few months to see if it has calmed down.
