pretty much everyone from lemmygrad and hexbear dismiss anything from any western outlet as propaganda while uncritically spouting insanity from the putin regime or the ccp.

i saw someone unironically posting about "democratic dictatorship" yesterday. good times

It's not the same. Most people calling the 2016 election a sham will admit that Trump did technically win by the rules as written, but also think that those rules are bullshit because they allowed a multi-million person majority to be shut out in favor of a malevolent moron. The people saying Biden lost are saying he literally cheated and that there's a conspiracy of thousands of government employees collaborating to break the rules and subvert the will of the people; that the multi-million majority literally doesn't exist. This is just as disingenuous as comparing the top secret documents that Trump hid to the ones that Biden and Pence handed over immediately on request.

Your statistic doesn't support your conclusion. His statement is not contradicted, and is in fact true.

Several articles about how poorer taxpayers are significantly more likely to be targeted:

https://www.propublica.org/article/irs-sorry-but-its-just-easier-and-cheaper-to-audit-the-poor

An article about how audit rates are dropping in general, and dropping fastest for those with the highest incomes:

I never said to ignore it for low income taxpayers, but the statistic you provided is incredibly misleading. Plus the IRS would recoup far more money by auditing higher income taxpayers at much greater rates.

[-] BeegYoshi@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

the misleading thing about that statistic is that there are far, far fewer wealthy people than there are normal. even with the rate of audits technically being lower, the number of audits of normal people is still far, far greater, and is where the IRS's focus truly is

being justified or not has nothing to do with whether something is violent. if someone is getting hurt, maimed, or killed, that's violence, no matter how much they deserve it.

Meta/Facebook and Google/Alphabet are very different from Twitter/X. The first two created parent companies under which their large brand names still exist, but are now managed along with their other properties (Instagram, ~~Snapchat~~, Waymo, Deepmind, etc.) Musk, meanwhile, is trying to completely burn down the Twitter brand for some incomprehensible reason.

Actually it's worse than nothing. Youtube promotes comments based on engagement, so while only an upvote increases the tally, voting at all still makes it more visible.

I got here after they announced the API changes. Took about a week for the reddit posts to slow down at all but they're back in full force now that the changes have been implemented.

It's just people discussing something that's relevant to them. It'll go away eventually.

Doing some quick searching, I don't think SAM (AMD's name for resizeable BAR) is available on the 5000 series, just 6000 and up. You'd need an AMD CPU as well.

I've been running a 6700XT with an Intel CPU and it hasn't been bad, but not great either. I've had trouble with the most recent graphics drivers; I tried to update in May and had to deal with a bunch of blackscreens before finally reverting to November's drivers. Luckily AMD has old drivers available directly on their website.

Messing with the GPU's performance settings within Adrenaline (AMD's version of geforce experience) is also super buggy, only working for a few hours at best before crashing and reverting. I'm talking anything physical, from overclocking to just increasing ambient fan speeds. Their bug reporter is also terrible! Changing render settings for specific games has worked fine, as well as deactivating the ingame overlay, but while I think you should play with it just to see how it works for you, I can only recommend using Adrenaline as a temperature monitor.

At the end of the day though it's not much buggier than my ancient dual 680 setup was lol, and it's like half the price of Nvidia stuff so I'd say you probably won't regret the purchase

Noticed this several days ago. I wanted to be active in this community: https://lemm.ee/c/tf2@lemmy.ml

However, as you can see by comparing to lemmy.ml's own version of the community, lemm.ee is not properly updating comments or point totals: https://lemmy.ml/c/tf2

When I left my own comment on a post there, it did federate to other instances, but it's not being updated on lemm.ee.

I've noticed something similar with other lemmy.ml communities, large and small. Compare:

https://lemm.ee/c/steam@lemmy.ml and https://lemmy.ml/c/steam/

Politics as well:

https://lemm.ee/c/politics@lemmy.ml and https://lemmy.ml/c/politics

And probably others as well. I've checked to make sure my language isn't set to undetermined and I've also tried viewing the communities while logged out.

There's also something bugged about trying to subscribe to any of lemmy.ml's communities. They appear on my profile and feed as a sub, but visiting the communities themselves, I've been stuck on "subscribe pending" for several days. Clicking the button repeatedly to make another attempt to subscribe doesn't work. Not a huge deal since they still show up in my feed, but it might be related.
