It's shocking how there's not more outrage against the killing of journalists in Gaza, in recent years, over 20 journalists have been murdered there, since October 7, another 50, and it's continuing at an unprecedented rate according to DM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hZh3grX_UI

@werdahias I agree, although I like my streaming service for new music, it's much easier to listen to new albums, and if you don't like something, you can just ignore it. But yeah you can't trust streaming services to be around forever and not to become more abusive towards both users and artists as time goes by.
Now is a great time to build up a physical CD collection while their cheap and readily available. Yesterday I got this Tracy Chapman disc, I've seen the cover art on my streaming service a few times. She looks really sad on the cover. But if you have the physical copy and open up the cover, she's happy on the inside!

@alilly I've reviewed lots of contributions over the years (as part of the Ubuntu App Review board, Debian mentors, etc). Especially for people beginning, it helps to be as thorough as possible to avoid additional back and forth and to help them learn. However, being too nitpicky will demotivate them and stunt their growth, it's really important not to sweat the small things too much. Everyone starts in a river, give them some chance to reach the ocean.
I really find the obscene level of blatant propaganda by the Israeli government deplorable. How can anyone support this and still sleep at night?

@bwh It's funny you should ask because this thought popped into my head just as I was about to fall asleep last night and then I was up for another hour. I'll gather some information and report back!

It's bad enough that someone would bomb a refugee camp killing 100s of civilians, but that so many people all over the world gleefully support that, makes it so much worse.
@winicons Yay, glad we finally have this on the fediverse!
