@artemis @lxo I don't tolerate lies. I think the hard truth is always better than sweet lies. so I never told people lies. even if that could piss them off. I think truth is important and makes the world a better place. people are stuck in lies, lost their last common sense and pretend being blind and deaf to please somebody else. I think this is absolutely wrong way. a turn to nowhere. so we must return back the truth and clarity to this world. even if the cure would be a little bitter than people wanted.
if you see a boil you cut it with a scalpel. if you see lies you cut it with clarifying things up. this is necessary procedure to solve the problem.

and considering mental health, people should learn to accept critics and consider it. not faint and panic at any attempt to tell them the real state of things. living in real world and staying sober and critical is an important skill. absolutely necessary if we ever want to build a healthy society where lies is not the topmost skill to survive. so I stay on my position of telling the direct harsh truth wherever and whenever. because this is the only way to make this world a better place. things must be called their names.

btw, I didn't tell about "beauty standards". I don't consider beauty per se. I tell trivial things about health. basic things everybody should know since childhood, I think. and beauty is just one of byproducts of health. so they are somehow joined. health means beauty, this is a law of the nature.

@artemis such a long text trying to defend absolutely unnatural and unhealthy excessive weight.

I'm not afraid of being unpopular. I was never into that crowd imposed opinions.
so I just put some trivial facts here:

- normal weight means good health and long life. every extra kilo is a shorter life expectance and direct path to numerous chronic diseases.
- fat directly affects the brain work, blocks the oxygen transport in vessels and obese people have serious problems with memory and mind capabilities, this is a scientifically proven fact. fat leads to progressing mental disability.
- men definitely prefer slim and sportive looking girls/women. same about women. not a big secret.
- active lifestyle, working hard and having healthy food never lead to any excessive weight. and there not many inborn diseases that may lead to pathological obesity. the most obese people got their extra weight by devouring huge amounts of fat and sweet food and being lazy and idle. this is not a disease, this is a perversion of behavior.

you still want to defend somebody's laziness and gluttony to respect what? their scary image in a mirror? but this is a fact. this does not depend on somebody telling them this or not. this just looks unhealthy and terrible. and this is dangerous for health. and the only way to get back to normal life is to get a lazy butt up and go for doing some exercises to get rid of fats. this is not that difficult and free. no drugs, no nothing, just cancelling sweets and jogging some kilometers daily solves the problem easily.

it's good when people teach their kids to keep healthy lifestyle. they mean all good for them and this is absolutely right. I totally pupport those mothers who take care of their kids and teach them proper diet and activities.

you may write whatever long posts but mirors and scales don't lie. they reflect the unpleasant reality even if everybody around is shut up by leftists agenda. I think speaking up about existing consumer society problems is more fair and proper than keeping silent and playing hypocritical tolerance.

@artemis this is not "self-righteous bullshit". this is the truth.
and self-righteous (and really sick) bullshit is advocating obesity and unhealthy life style. that's why I decided to oppose it here.
obesity is not good. never was and will never be. this is unhealhy, disgusting looking and people should avoid being fat. keeping fit and healthy is good intention and it must be supported and adviced for all young people and kids. for the goodness and health of all society.
and hipocritical lies about "body positive" remains such and leads to diseases and early death. I think some critics is anyway better than death from heart stroke at 30 from extra weight.

@shuro @kravietz this is not "Russians". this is generic human flaw in thinking. it's not nation related.
just now life in Russia is very harsh and all problems are well seen. if something like this happened in any other country, the results would be the same.
some people are prone to propaganda. but I think over here they are even less prone to it than in the abstract "West", because people never trusted government in this country. for many centuries. people avoid government and don't trust it, whatever happens and whoever comes to power.

@shuro @kravietz >Maybe it had something to with with what people in Ukraine did in 2004 and 2013 and something people in Russia largely ignored in 2012?
nope.
you're locked in your personal experience and imagine like there's democracy everywhere. but this is not so. there're many places where people do not choose anything in politics. and there was never any democracy in Russia, from the very beginning and till nowadays.

p.s. and you listen to propaganda too much. your imagination of Russian people is too silly. you repeat Kremlin propaganda word by word and this sounds a way weird.

@shuro @kravietz @petez I just don't see any bloodthirst cannibals around. I see common people. not any different than in any other country. nobody talks about putler or war, people are busy with surviving, making money, taking care of their families, etc. and this is not anything out of order. I mean common people rarely think about politics, especially when they cannot affect that politics in any way.

@shuro @kravietz @petez but you definitely enjoy it an push up this theme over here. you spread your fantasies and try to create the negative image of Russians. and this is nazism, plainly. so you are not better than putler. he hates Ukrainians, you hate Russians. but there's no difference.

@kravietz one-step logic is all like that. he uses VPN "because of regulators" and no further thinking is implied.
some people cannot build logical chains and see the causes and consequences. the world is very simple to them, but it all consists of separate non-intersecting events and things, and they never try to see futher than one step ahead.
and actually many people are like that. just they do not face complicated life conditions in most cases so we don't see that.

@loriemerson @lxo it is not actual for many years already. the era of possible cheap development bsed on existing tehnologies is over and further envolvement takes serious scientific research and engineering efforts and investments.
that's why we don't see any improvements in hardware the past decades. they just faced the limits that are not passable with already exising solutions.

@loriemerson I disagree only with °cheaper° clause. because if something is better and higher in tehnology, it just cannot be cheaper. and cheaper are usually poor quality things or things made by slaves that are underpaid.
but I would add a clause of longevity: a new instrument should run and work fine longer than previous one.

@GrapheneOS @lxo
looks llike Brasilian government requirements to software are much worse than we expected.
this is not just a breaking privacy for some third-party service, it's deanonimizing and tracking users by whatever sites and servers in an unknown circle.

@gemlog @livefish when I was a little kid, I learnt an English alphabet to be able to read English. but it turned out that strange people invented not just different letters but whole set of different words! I didn't understasnd why would they need to do all this :)

@lxo

I had read some news from Brasil recently and have a question about what's going on in Brasil.
I mean that sick proposal that operating systems has to provide some means to "check user age" or something. this sounds so weird to me that I cannot even imagine the illiterate people that invented that BS:

reclaimthenet.org/brazil-enact…

and how this weird demand can co-exist with free software, privacy and so on.
they say the weird law enacts on 17th of March and companies and users may undergo serious fines for "breaking the law" if operating systems/software don't comply. do Brasilian users of GNU/Linux have to do anything about this or something?

@glynmoody @WeirdWriter @lxo you've got a talent.
the Colonization is the most vivid English nonfiction I have read around in a long while. a blind person painting the brightest pictures of the world, described in words.
this reminded me Samuel Beckett in some sense. and this is amazing.

@glynmoody @WeirdWriter @lxo yes, I noticed the tag after I read the text. I thought it was fiction too. but it's not. and this makes it even more amazing.

@Suiseiseki if the data is coming faster than the disk can write it you cannot do anything with it. it's guaranteed data loss.
and using 1Gb chunks for dd sounds like madness.

@lxo I didn't know GNU social was so "ancient". well, it was not Fediverse yet, but some kind of free distributed network.

@Suiseiseki @oigreslima @lxo > the federal government has an app/website that has become the single entry point for a growing number of government services
over here they also have government "services" but I don't use it, although it's theoretically available via web, without any gadgets. I just don't want to cooperate with fascists in any way. they murder people and I hate them. so I live without any "services" from the fascist state. I don't communicate with them in any way.

>as banks discontinued their web-based services and now they're in a spree of shutting down branches, forcing customers to use apps to get any service whatsoever
that sounds bad. over here banks offer full-featured web interfaces. mainly because sanctions made it impossible to have their apps on different proprietary gadgets. unexpected positive effect from sanctions. but without any app I can pay with a card via any ATM so even if they close web there's no need to have a smartphone.
