      Funny enough, Zelenskyy also did take a selfie there because he is the rare national leader that DOES give a fuck.

      That’s what they do, yes. Unfortunately, it’s not fully drone-proof.

      /edit: You can see it in this video, if you’re interested

      The amount of optic fiber cables from drone use spread across fields is insane.

              both would work, nobody sane wants the position

              Burr has that working-class esthetic popular with rural america, Stewart would probably come off as more “just another jewish liberal media personality” to the maga/racist/rural america crowd

              Bill Burr would be harder/impossible for the conservative propaganda machine to spin against

      Well, there is putin in his bunker sitting at a table at 5 meters safety distance from his staff … And there is Zelenskyy, near/at the frontline with his men. Does not blink an eye with shots in the background. I’m sure he has shortcomings too, but i have got nothing but respect for the man. This guy has earned a significant place in the worlds history.

                  Someone said something nice about their wife in the context of having sex with someone one more time.

                  Other person said “I also choose this guy’s dead wife” as an agreement that the guy’s dead wife was pretty awesome.

                  Totally wholesome, the context doesn’t make it not so.

          “A picture of” is implied in the title.

          The actual selfie was a live feed to Putin where Zelenskyy was shouting, “I don’t see no damn soldiers here, bro!”, followed by “If you want it, come and claim it!”. Then he unsheathed a big sword.

          Still doesn’t top the video years ago of him doing a similar thing after Russian claims of hits, with Zelenskyy revealing he was sitting at the desk in the same location.

      Sure it’s not the Pro Max? He’s got some good-sized paws, unlike some other world leaders.

        You certain? He’s a fairly small person at around 170cm. I consider myself short at 173 and I was always near the tail end of the roll call at PE, sorted by height descending (it’s an eastern block thing).

        I get that it’s a dig at the orange turd, but…

        Either way, I don’t think Zelensky has any self esteem issues.

    Can’t see it because I have i.redd.it blocked. I’m really confused why images from that domain are constantly embedded on Lemmy.

      Nobody said it was going to be easy, fighting the corporate web.

      But seriously: That’s only their image server. You can safely unblock it. Of course you’re still giving them your IP. If that bothers you I refer you back to the top of this comment.

      it’s since people are manually crossposting from reddit; not sure why you’d block an image domain tbh

        I have all corporate social media blocked. Why would I want to load content from Reddit, especially when I’m on Lemmy actively avoiding Reddit?

        people are crossposting

        What software uploads assets to Reddit then recycles the URL for embedding them on other platforms?

          Your logic is flawed. This has reddit pay for Lemmy traffic. Its a reddit subsidy for Lemmy operating costs.

            My logic that I don’t want to connect to Reddit at all when I’m using Lemmy but that’s happening for who knows why? I understand how computers and networks work so I get it that Reddit shores up the hosting cost but that doesn’t really address the issue.

              The reason sadly is extremism, probably fueld by idealism. Realism will help you discover the path to change instead of polarization and deadlock. <3

            Because it gives Reddit the power to harm Lemmy at a time of their choosing.

              It’s going to take more than a few dead links to kill off the fediverse at this point.

News and information from Europe 🇪🇺

(Current banner: La Mancha, Spain. Feel free to post submissions for banner images.)

Rules (2024-08-30)

  1. This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don’t overly distort the content.
  2. No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
  3. Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don’t post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don’t troll nor incite hatred. Don’t look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia’s List of fallacies.
  4. No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism. We follow German law; don’t question the statehood of Israel.
  5. Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add “/s” when you’re being sarcastic (and don’t use it to break rule no. 3).
  6. If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
  7. Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in other communities.
  8. Don’t evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
  9. No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
  10. Always provide context with posts: Don’t post uncontextualized images or videos, and don’t start discussions without giving some context first.

(This list may get expanded as necessary.)

Posts that link to the following sources will be removed

  • on any topic: Al Mayadeen, brusselssignal:eu, citjourno:com, europesays:com, Breitbart, Daily Caller, Fox, GB News, geo-trends:eu, news-pravda:com, OAN, RT, sociable:co, any AI slop sites (when in doubt please look for a credible imprint/about page), change:org (for privacy reasons)
  • on Middle-East topics: Al Jazeera
  • on Hungary: Euronews

Unless they’re the only sources, please also avoid The Sun, Daily Mail, any “thinktank” type organization, and non-Lemmy social media (incl. Substack). Don’t link to Twitter directly, instead use xcancel.com. For Reddit, use old:reddit:com

(Lists may get expanded as necessary.)

Ban lengths, etc.

We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.

If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 7 or 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don’t show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.

If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the primary mod account @[email protected]
