  • Macron urges Europe to start acting like world power

    Jump

  • I'd for the longest time wondered why Europe has been so complacent in letting the US dominate the geopolitical agenda. Could it be by letting the US overspend on military, EU can instead invest in better living standards for themselves & mooch off US military support through NATO if the need ever arises?

  • Why 3D print them? Isn't that more ecologically wasteful than just getting any of the mass-produced ones? They aren't exactly hard to come by. Fuck your wasteful printing.

    • opinion
    • missing basic functionality available on the website

    choose one

    It seems absurd to defend the incapacity & redundancy of a deficient technology. Did you miss the part where OP can't set the URL of their post & doesn't seem able to perform an easy edit? The URL in the body is still wrong.

    Images of text break much that text alternatives do not. Losses due to image of text lacking alternative:

    • usability
      • we can't quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
      • text search is unavailable
      • the system can't
        • reflow text to varied screen sizes
        • vary presentation (size, contrast)
        • vary modality (audio, braille)
    • accessibility
      • lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
      • some users can't read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
      • users can't adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
      • systems can't read the text to them or send it to braille devices
    • searchability: the "text" isn't indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
    • fault tolerance: no text fallback if
      • image breaks
      • image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.

    Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.

  • It actually saves on resources because it’s not loading in CSS and JS.

    I see no evidence of that: I'm pretty sure all clients load a web engine and related resources including CSS, which means you're installing a redundant, special-purpose web client when you already have a general web client installed. Plus, lacking basic functionality as OP states makes it the opposite of useful.

    Jump

  • OP just stated it's less capable by lacking basic features from the website, so if "works great" means "works like shit", then I'll concede your point.

  • Does your device not have a web browser that can go to the far more capable website?

    "Though this app wastes more space, it also works worse!" doesn't seem a compelling value proposition.

  • Revealed: How Substack makes money from hosting Nazi newsletters— Site takes a cut of subscriptions to content that promotes far-right ideology, white supremacy and antisemitism

    Jump

  • If you publish there, you are supporting right wing propaganda.

    Not how taking a cut of subscription revenue works. If you publish right wing propaganda, then maybe you have a point.

  • Yes, and that’s exactly why the article is important.

    Explaining to us how subscriptions work like we're idiots is important? Or was that common knowledge a revelation for you?

  • Too many times, when an article posted on lemmy shits on the Democrats as a "controlled opposition party" over a recently passed bill, the roll call shows the vast majority of Democrats voted against it. Funny how news articles practically never link to the official congressional page on a bill or its roll call votes.
