A lot of the world, especially Africa and south America, was somewhat later in adopting the Internet and has a much smaller supply of IPv4 addresses. People with ISPs there need IPv6 to be directly connectable without CGNAT

Not at all surprised, motherboard firmware from most vendors has always been a steaming pile of shit code, often not even built to spec.

Media doing everything they can to keep people fighting each other rather than the owner class...

It's civil lawsuits by corporations, not state prosecution

I'm only familiar with JAV (Japanese) content, which sukebei.nyaa.si has quite a bit of. I suggest browsing for what you want on javlibrary.com and then search for a download on nyaa

And that started after carry ban laws were passed

That's definitely fair. You're a far more patient person than I would be, which makes me feel good about being on this instance.

I think it would be reasonable to defederate from blahaj.zone. A majority of the toxic, negative, and aggressive comments I see on Lemmy seem to come from users of either blahaj or hexbear. The admin very intentionally curates a cult-like community by posting provocative posts and then banning everyone who expresses even slight disagreement. They have engaged in and doubled down on false accusations of CP against the lemmynsfw admins, which demonstrates that they are a risk for other instances be federated with. I normally very strongly oppose dedederation, but I think blahaj is a great example of when it makes sense. This is because the admin seems intent on starting drama rather than working with other instances to resolve conflict. It almost feels like some form of religious extremism lol

I of course block the instance from my account to avoid seeing posts from there, but toxic users are still visible on comments.

It's a frivolous troll lawsuit and this is a clickbait article

In his Complaint, Plaintiff alleges that he is an inventor of “Tele-Sex or Tele-Mining on Jupiter and other planets of the Solar System,” and appears to assert a claim for copyright infringement and constitutional violations.

In his brief, Plaintiff makes fantastical allegations, stating, for example, that “Defendants are dangerous liars, criminals, traitors and co-conspirators.” Dkt. 18 at 31. He further states that Supreme Court Justices Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett “deserve the death penalty or at least to be disbenched from the U.S. Supreme Court.” Dkt. 18 at 40.

Take a look at this guide, it's what I've been following https://learnjapanese.moe/guide/

Essentially, use Anki to study vocabulary in bulk, and use grammar guides like Tae Kim's. And spend a lot of time reading and listening to real native content

It's worth noting that Duolingo has always been considered.very bad by most of the Japanese learning community.

Find an organization with a long history of successfully bringing meaningful change to society and that has stayed true to its values. In my opinion, the Electronic Frontier Foundation comes to mind.

Or find something local to your community, directly giving to actual families in need near you
