tomenzgg@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Whistleblower Accuses DOGE of Letting Russians Access Government Accounts in Shocking Security BreachEnglish3·4 days agoGotcha; thanks a ton. I’d only been vaguely aware on the size so that definitely makes more sense. 'Appreciate it.
tomenzgg@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Whistleblower Accuses DOGE of Letting Russians Access Government Accounts in Shocking Security BreachEnglish2·4 days agoAh; I’ve only heard bits and pieces here and there so I wasn’t scared but I had been under the impression it was of a size for sufficient low-key worry (and that’s why it was better that it’d miss Earth) which was why I was confused as to why hitting the moon, then, would be any better.

tomenzgg@midwest.socialto Europe@feddit.org•Finland votes: Social Democrats take the win as Finns Party (far-right) support collapsesEnglish11·6 days agoIt could be a bit of them all; his base isn’t large enough on its own but, together with those who wanted to protest vote and those looking for relief from the economy and those who hated the idea of voting for a black woman, they may’ve all been enough to get him over the finish line.
tomenzgg@midwest.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women?English132·6 days agoWe all pretend that it didn’t exist and do not acknowledge its presence; that’s the informal rule.

Still on the shelves: copies of "Mein Kampf"English41·7 days agoAlready had most of these marked to donate to their eventual primary challenger; welcome to the list, Henry Cuellar.
GBA SP was the height of things, for me. Growing up with both the GB and GBC, I never quite forgave Nintendo for dropping GB/C support with the DS. The SP had a backlight and could play every GB game in existence and could easily fit in your pocket by being folded. It felt like the right direction in every way imaginable.
