Can you host images somewhere else than reddit? It's blocked(?) by some instances, I can't even see them without going to lemmy.world, or following the link to reddit. On reddit you can't open images in full size, literally the worst image host I can imagine.
Reuploaded to lemmy.zip:
(I won't comment on how much work was to create this screenshot. Classic r/mapporn)
Ngl, you have me curious how much work it took to make that screenshot.
It's like 5 minutes max, with some practice I think you can lower that to less than half minutes.
Or, as it's from reddit, I suspect its a repost bot, so just find the last time it was posted
Recreated something similar now:
Ohhh, it was easy. I thought it was going to be a long story. I was ready to get comfy!
the avif format doesnt seems to work on lemmy
No, lemmy.zip converts it to avif, the original is jpg, this is the link of the image you posted: https://i.redd.it/sg3ssz188iig1.jpeg
I don't know if the problem is on lemmy's side, or reddit rate limits us or something. But we shouldn't give clicks to reddit anyway.
Also if the post will be deleted on reddit it will stop working here as well, so it's more future proof if you mirror it to here or somewhere else.
If your grandmother had wheels, she would be a bicycle.
not this argument again.
how the fuck do you know she won't be a motorcycle? Do you need a motor thats not your heart? Why doesn't she become a tire demon or a stool with wheels for sests?
And Berlin would be in fucking Utah... as someone who lives in Berlin, I strongly resent this notion.
Utah is actually one of the most beautiful states in the US! The people are a little odd, but very nice. Which was actually my experience in Germany as well, so maybe it's not far off ha
The people are a little odd, but very nice
you have not actually lived there, have you. The people are very odd, not nice at all, violent if you upset them slightly, and the only beautiful parts are where the people aren't.
Ah, it’s basically the same cultural niche. Haven’t you heard of Salt Lake City’s 24 hour club?
Sorry if I'm mistaken or failing to detect your irony, but isn't Utah this highly conservative state, with a vast majority of the population being white (or Hispanic, which to me counts as "white but speaking Spanish") and where most people follow a crackpot religion which basically views fun things like sex, drugs, alcohol and homosexuality as a sin?
Comparing that to Berlin, a permissive, irreligious, hedonistic, multi-ethnic place, brimming with culture and open-minded people, seems rather far-fetched to me.
It was sarcasm, yes. There’s definitely no 24 hour club in SLC
Sorry, I kinda suspected it was sarcasm but wasn't 100% sure.
No worries, text makes it difficult and if you’re not sure on the culture of SLC, I can see it being unclear
London being San Francisco is rather apt
If Paris were Los Angeles, the war in Ukraine would be near Memphis
not really. Kansas too would be under fire.
Like Dallas also would be
Ah shit.. did an assault start from Transnistria side?
In the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the city faced some Russian bombing attacks. On 23 April 2022, Russian troops bombarded Odesa with cruise missiles. They destroyed both the city's military infrastructure and residential buildings, killing eight people and wounding another eighteen people. In addition, the Russian military destroyed more than 1,000 m2 of the territory of the cemetery. The city suffered further aerial attacks on regional infrastructure facilities in October 2022, cutting off power to 10,500 households and injuring three people.

Unable to get near Ukraine’s main port, Moscow is pounding the city from afar with missiles and drones

Huh, I always thought the UK was much smaller.
It’s not the size, it’s how you use it.
Just for reference, the largest company that has existed so far was the Dutch East India Company. Didn’t come from a very large country either, but that company had its own navy and it even negotiated treaties with countries just like a sovereign nation would.
It's hard to beat the power:area ratio of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta.
This is a good reminder to those who keep asking “why don’t people in the US do anything about this regime?” Well because people who voted against all this (including their representatives) live thousands of miles away from the asshole who did. Should I go burn down my representatives offices even though they voted aligned with my choices?
I think a better argument is that a lot of people ARE doing what they can, and that the regime is making it difficult to do so. Also, if being immersed in the River Styx of Online Discourse for the last ten years taught me anything, it's that trying to call someone out for (percieved or actual) inaction or mistakes does not work.
"My country is really big therefore it's not my fault if nothing gets done about the regime that's fucking up my country."
Why aren’t those Russians stopping Putin? They’ve had like 20 years.
Because they didn't stop him 20 years ago.
"my country is really big and I do not have the physical ability, means, or resources to travel to where the problem is to effectively impose change"
Your comment is literally proving it's right, you're too stupid, ignorant, or stubborn to consider anything other than what allows you to continue spewing nonsense
Probably, at this stage.
At least put Bordeaux where LA is.
Um, you do know Russia is a neighbour of the US right ?
For the map enthused!
