It even makes up fake scientific papers as “references”

Broski, it’s not early 2023 anymore. Thinking models with internet access have been able to provide public sources just for over a year now. Technology evolves; shocking, I know…

Police announced the attacker was a German citizen, born and raised in the country.

Are you familiar with the quote “He is not an Irishman. He was born in Ireland; but being born in a stable does not make a man a horse.” - Daniel O’Connell, about the Englishman the Duke of Wellington.

Islamic extremism says no.

You are all being manipulated (fear mongered). This is rediculous.

And I’m still for forcing them to circulate their water loops, by law.

I know people LOOOOOOVE to use how many bajillion gallons (wtf is a gallon? is that a bucket? learn to use litres) AI data centers use, without looking into how much that is as a percentage of total water use:

Basis: 322 billion US gallons per day, equivalent to 117.53 trillion gallons per year. Percentages are calculated against total US water withdrawals in 2015. (USGS)

The first eight categories add up to 99.879%. The small difference from 100% is caused by rounding in the USGS daily figures.

The data-center and AI rows represent water-consumption footprints, while the USGS sector rows represent water withdrawals. They are included for scale comparison and should not be added to the sector totals.

Wait. If you say “remigration” means “ethnic cleansing”, does that not mean that “migration” effectively means “ethnic desecration”? 🤔

Wild take, man!

Am I correct in my guess that you don’t think that the way we’re currently not handling mass-migration is an issue? Sad if you don’t.

They think all the problems come from migrants.

Thing is: there’s a few migrants causing most of the issues, but because the rules are so protective, we can’t get rid of these few assholes, so now people want to get rid of all migrants.

If we were able to get rid of the few asshole migrants, things would not be the issue they are today.

Just remember kids: Race is not a legitimate concept. There is no “black race” or “white race”, and if you still believe that: You’re a Racist.

Remigration

eh, should have called it “dereplacement migration” or something.

edit: Note that this “replacement migration” is already happening to the Netherlands. The native populations of the Frisians, Franks and Saxons are declining, while our total population is still growing. I never asked for that; I never voted for that; I don’t know anyone who has.

paying billions in taxes

And how much do they cost us? When people immigrate, they are a short-term cost to the country (as all migrants are). Question is: do they make us money in the long term. For many countries, the answer is no: “The Long-Term Fiscal Impact of Immigrants in the Netherlands, Differentiated by Motive, Source Region and Generation”

How many houses do they take in (there’s a 400k houses short in the Netherlands, for example; we build 70k houses a year, but take in 100k migrants (300k in - 200k out = 100k net growth) plus another 100k babies that are born. Where is everybody supposed to live?

Then there’s the nitrous-crisis that we’re dealing with, which means we CAN’T just “build more houses”, and those that are being built can’t connect to the electricity grid, because there’s a waiting list because the VVD decided back in 2008 that investing in our grid for the future wasn’t of their concern…

Fuck mass migration, and fuck you for only seeing people as economic units. I’m fucking pissed.

Just 6% of global emissions originate there.

That would make us #4 for “Share of World”: https://www.worldometers.info/co2-emissions/co2-emissions-by-country. Not insignificant.

3.3 billion tonnes CO2 per year (2024): https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-eurostat-news/w/ddn-20260123-1

With a population of 449.2 million (2024) https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-eurostat-news/w/ddn-20240711-1

That’s about ~7.34 tonnes per capita (which would make us ~35th highest per-capita producer)

Not bad for 27 countries.

And it’s the year of the Linux Desktop! What a coincidence!

nothing substantive

You were saying? 🤨

Lemmy, this is the fourth year in a row that “OpenAI bankrupts soon” articles are being posted:

OpenAI isn’t going anywhere.

I’ve seen many tattoos that are stupid, but I’ve seen also artistically beautiful ones (different styles), or ones that remember a loved one who has passed away. Those aren’t stupid.

Slapping Goku or Batman on your body can be stupid, but plenty of people gain inspiration from those figures, to improve their own life, so even there you can find exceptions.

I’m completely tattooless (the small piece of stone that has lodged itself under my skin, that looks like a tiny dark blotch doesn’t count), but have been thinking of getting Huginn and Muninn tattood on my arms, but I tend to forget within a week, so maybe not).

Women who had a mastectomy (breast amputation, which includes the nipples) can get massive mental relief if they get a nipple tattooed.

I presume it’s supposed to be a (golden) snake eating itself. Could also be a mom protecting her eggs.

Blaming foreigners for all of the problems is the easiest way to get votes.

The real issue is the politicians letting in insane amounts of migrants - I don’t care whether they come from the Maghreb, or the Appalachians. That is going to have VERY long-stretching effects, and politicians are crazily short-sighted. None of them has a 100-year plan for their own country. Absolute bonkers.

“I do love a good curry” - Piers Morgan

Do you understand that we can simply take their recipes, and make it ourselves? You can have your kebab, while the rest of us can get a stable economy that can pay natives a decent loan, which they can use to actually buy a house, without getting fucked over by their corporate overlords because their loan is being undermined by the mass-immigration enabled by Liberal politicians - fuck them too.
