I mean it is the same with Putin, saying Ukraine is not a real country, he is not going to stop at Ukraine. Something similar might happen in Armenia too, things are becoming ugly.

It is the US that has the military power. Israel has already tried going into Lebanon before and failed, so I think if they do it they must be pretty confident that America will come to their aid.

I remember a teacher requiring us to use Matrix for a coding class. We still mostly used Discord, and after that class ended, we never used it again.

You and I have a reason we use Lemmy: we don't want to use Reddit and want the Fediverse to grow. Simply forcing your students to make Lemmy accounts won't do anything, in fact it might make them hate it (Oke boomer).

Nice explanation but here is a graph with desktop percentage included (versus mobile plus tablet, but that isn't shown)

And how is Hezbollah not a local military? As far as I know, they have existed before the Iranian revolution.

I am honestly not sure if it is Biden's decision after I saw how cooked his brains were. More likely he just read whatever his party/vice president decided.

Best thing is to follow a recent youtube video

i dont get it

How so? This was much more common in the past. It’s become much less of the norm since we have international instituations like the UN.

So it's not the norm, it is becoming the norm. you answered it yourself.

right, but this isn’t !aboringdystopia@lemmy.world. And I don’t think it’s onion-y.

My comment is not the post, the post is onion-y
