The US can survive without Isn’treal, but I don’t think the reverse is true. They need our UNSC veto, military/intelligence support, and yearly billions in aid.
I think that’s a question for future generations to answer, when the question becomes salient to the material conditions, but that’s so far in the future that I don’t engage with it seriously.
I’ve never run Lemmy myself. It would be somewhat easy for me to run it, but that’s only because this kind of stuff was my job. But even then I’m sure it would be a lot of work. People who say it’s easy don’t remember how much latent knowledge they already have that makes it easy for them.
This search returns no hits, so I wouldn’t even consider running it on Windows: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/index.html?search=windows
Lemmy isn’t just this one app that you run; it’s several that interoperate with each other, including a database server (PostgreSQL):
$ curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/main/docker/docker-compose.yml | yq '.services | keys'
[
"lemmy",
"lemmy-ui",
"pictrs",
"postgres",
"proxy"
]
Each of the above represents its own Linux virtual machine running one or more services.
Writing some code and checking it in to GitHub is one thing; running that code reliably 24/7 and accessible by the whole world is quite another.
The McDonalds peace theory has already been put to bed, numbnuts.
Running a Lemmy instance is more about (IaaS or PaaS) operations knowledge/experience than coding. I wouldn’t recommend trying to run one yourself without any such background. I’d look for someone who does to partner with. If some company were providing “Lemmy as a service,” I would recommend paying them to run it, but I don’t see that appearing anytime soon.
I think this article from a US NGO (Global Energy Monitor) provides overwhelming evidence that they already are.
I have a working theory involving the ganja.
:homer-backs-into-bushes:
I think the short answer is I wouldn’t attempt to adequately compare apples to oranges in a Lemmy post, not that I even could in this case, as I don’t think I’m qualified to. Both Russia and China had different material conditions, not only between each other but also within each one over the span of decades. And the two economic models evolved over time as well—neither was static—which means you’d want to investigate their evolution over time.
Furthermore, keep in mind that you can’t simply copy your favorite economic snapshot of a country in a moment in time, and then paste it into, say, Burgerland today, because those are different material conditions.
Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
Sure Uncle Sam, let’s get you to bed.
I didn’t know that sportswashing had been coined, never mind studied. I suppose a happy side effect of having no interest in sports is that it’s ineffective.
Edit to add: It does seem to be fairly new term:
The first usage of the term “sportswashing” may have been applied to Azerbaijan and its hosting of the 2015 European Games in Baku.

NATO summits are not regular meetings like the more frequent NATO ministerial meetings, but rather are important junctures in the alliance’s decision-making process on the highest level.
Apparently we’re having a rash of them lately: six in the last three years
Unless people learn how the media actually work, I don’t think they’re going to increase their media literacy.
The only people who are actually taught how the media and propaganda work are those who are earmarked to do that work for the bourgeoisie after they complete their degrees at elite universities.
If snu-snu is gay I don’t wanna be straight.
It used to be much higher, before multiple red scares, multiple cold wars, FBI/OSS/CIA chicanery, and massive amounts of propaganda.
Huh?
