Nice.

Hot take but none of these admins should be anonymous. If you don’t want the responsibility/risk then let someone else do it. Crazy how the biggest subreddits are being ran by secret groups coordinating outside of reddit itself.

bananas have more rights and people in Britain apparently

No that’s simply not true

Seems like someone read Art of War for his bed time lately:

appear strong when you are weak.

The far left can’t agree because most of it is not found in functional rationality. At least the right is too stupid to think and thus can actually achieve things 🙈

I spray my garden with couple of cigarettes worth of tobacco water once in a while - works great as a natural insecticide!

I also used to live next to a tobacco plantation in Thailand once and the plant itself is quite incredible - basically untouchable by disease or insects so completly hands free and the fields are really cozy.

I’m not a lawyer but afaik the sanctioned ships are treated kinda like “legal piracy” as country can board it even in international waters if it knows it’s performing a sanctioned operation like transferring goods to a place it’s not allowed to or the ship is stateless or sneaky (no transponder etc).

At the end of the day these legalities are purely made up to satisfy treaties rather than ethics or rationality so it’s silly to try to look for rational meaning here.

Lol only on lemmy.megalosers you can find Hezbolah defenders. Go away troll.

That’s not how these types sanctions work though. It’s much more broad than “you can’t pass our waters” and it’s perfectly legal to board sanctioned ships in international waters.

AFAIK this is legal though I care much more about ethics than legalities as citizen of neither of these countries.

I feel like people are taking the bait here in siding with Iran and Hezbolah just to spite Trump. Both things can be bad and it’s kinda important to be woke to these games rather than blindly oppose everything.

People keep underestimating Trump and his stooges. Sure they are stupid but they do have a plan and they do scheme.

The ship was already sanctioned in 2022 tho

Yes, they should but Ukraine’s drones are already on it.

I hate trump as anyone else here but reading into this it looks like an absolutely legal and normal procedure?

The ship in question named Skipper was already sanctioned since 2022 for transporting Iranian oil to fund Hezbolah. So minus conflict escalation with Venezuela this seems like a good thing? Hezbolah is an incredibly evil terrorist organization and cutting off it’s funding is good.

I think the bigger subsidy comes from the seller as they’d rather lose 3% and score a sale than not.

This is kinda stupid. The centers shouldn’t be stopped but taxed appropriately.

We will never need less energy in compute period. So it makes no sense to artificially limit it, instead it needs to be priced to the point where it’s net positive for environment rather than net negative and if any industry has the incentives and money for this it’s tech.

I’m not sure but Ikea’s BNPL here has 0 fees.

Except many BNPL options are 0% interest rate. I just renovated an apartment with ikea stuff and they offered me 0% interest rate over 1 year - it makes no sense to not take this offer.

Many companies would gladly lose 4% (avg inflation) to guarantee a sale especially when dipping on loans are basically impossible today for the average consumer.

Key detail missing here - what is the interest rate on avg? I buy a bunch of stuff at BNPL because with 0% interest over 1 year it’s essentially at least 2-4% cheaper due to inflation.

I’m surprised it took that long. Football is missing one of the biggest markets in the world and they’d award that dumbass with a trophy daily if that got them any closer to football in the US.
