Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why can people see who upvotes and who downvoted post on Lemmy?
5·18 days agoIf someone has a problem with your alt they can ban it. If votes would be encrypted they would have to defederate the full instance where they come from.
Create separate accounts for privacy not for vote manipulation

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why can people see who upvotes and who downvoted post on Lemmy?
2·18 days agoIf it would be encrypted, it would open up for vote manipulation. There are plans that mods will see who upvotes in their communities. Create multiple accounts on different instances if you need more privacy, separate personalities for different topics.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some non-mainstream foods or drinks from your culture that social media isn't aware of and hasn't ruined?
41·1 month agoHow social media can ruin a food? You can just ignore that, the food is still the same, it’s you who are ruined.
Why is it stupid on dogital products. The point of VAT is that you pay a tax whenever you buy anything: if you buy more thing you pay more to the common purse. Or I’m just too European and got used to paying tax on literally everything.
Why did they call specifically you? Are you a tax office?
The whole tax exemption is stupid, but he has a point. If a stupid law is not enforced equally, they should be enraged.

It’s outrageous they sell such low quality bread for rats. Like they are second class citizens.
When the iPhone 5 was released in 2012, it looked nearly identical to the previous iPhone 4, but it was taller. 4 had 3:2 aspect ratio, while 5 had 16:9. (Do I have to explain this? Some of you should be young enough not to remember this, as it happened 13 years ago)
We got similar memes extrapolating this lengthening:

Who are the 3 on the right? I can recognise the others:
Zucc, amd boss, elongated muskrat, nvidia boss, altman, ?, ?, ?
Fun fact: amd and nvidia ceos are cousins.
Before the modern internet it was really hard to fact check something. In 2001 in the eastern bloc it was still rare to have internet at home (in Poland only 10% of the population used the internet in 2001 https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/IT.NET.USER.ZS?locations=PL), and English language knowledge was very low, the compulsory second language taught in schools was Russian before 1990 (this was the case in Hungary, I guess it was common in other Warsaw-pact countries).
I just looked up the snopes article now, I didn’t know the origin story an hour ago, but I suspected it was not true. If someone just heard this gossip around that time they didn’t really have an easy way to check it, and in their long term memory it was saved as fact.
I remember hearing that conspiracy theory, snopes has a detailed page about its origins: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/israelis-absent-911/
TLDR: originally it was not nazi, but Syrian propaganda. Obviously nazis pick up whatever fits their world view.
