I didn't notice OP said it changed on the same page load, I thought they were F5ing their comments. That does make it more strange.

Normally I'd agree that unauthenticated privilege escalation to administrator account is something that should only ever be reported privately, but this sounds more like a caching bug on the sopuli instance, in which case OP didn't actually have (theoretical) access to the cookie, although it may be something else. It also brings to attention the lack of published email and optional PGP for reporting. Though, that it was the admin account makes me wonder if the admin wasn't tinkering with something, causing this to happen for a split second.

@freedomPusher@sopuli.xyz I'm curious to hear the response from the admin, will you ping me if they don't mind you sharing their response?

What are we talking about here?

Emotional detachment of things one has no personal involvement in, in order to see the situation as clearly as possible. If you are living in Gaza or have family or a good friend there then yes it's much harder and maybe nearly impossible. I can also understand the need for emotional attachment to feel purpose by campaigning against something, but again, attachment is the enemy of objectivity.

It's impossible to avoid bias completely. It's very much possible to recognize your bias and train yourself to have emotional detachment from a given subject. Ask a Buddhist monk, or a seasoned intelligence analyst.

Philosophical ramble below, you can stop reading here if you're not in the mood.

Most people unfortunately never get to the stage of realizing they can detach themselves from emotional bias, so they read and believe whatever they have already read and believe and want to be true.

Side note: it's much easier when you're on the spectrum, or learned as a child to shut your emotions off (I'm not sure this can be learned in adulthood). It seems like many victims of childhood abuse take it in the other direction - emotional overreaction.

I'm quite positive going to Russia would be dangerous for me regardless of my ethnicity or background 😄. They really do have some neat brutalist art and architecture, but I can see that from the safety of my couch with Bald & Bankrupt.

Worldnews and Politics on Lemmy and Reddit are probably singlehandedly responsible for 20% of the daily AstroTurf® Premiumizzle™ API access.

I subscribed to a couple politics subs yesterday here on Lemmy. I had to unsubscribe this morning.

Fully agree. I'm taking a trip to Russia soon. It's my families motherland, such a beautiful country with a rich history. People keep calling me a spy, and it's hurtful, especially when they pull out their identification. -- Jokes aside I really do agree. Internet culture has come up with some of the greatest, and dumbest, collectivist thoughts and this meme is a great example of the latter.

Edit: Keep up friends. "Motherland" "Russian" "Spy" "Identification" "Jokes aside"

Hell, even if someone came back and told us, we'd probably just be confused.

I won't say WW3 is inevitable, but something big is coming. Russia is draining our resources (including mental focus of agents) in Ukraine, Iran and Saudi Arabia are draining our resources via Gaza and the Red Sea, China is stepping up their cyber attacks and North Korea is readily collaborating with all of them. Meanwhile the flames of propaganda are no longer being fanned on Ukraine, but on Israel, one of our most touchy allies.

Mama always said, two wrong ain't make a right. My father said that complex geopolitical games are not won with bias, but with detached foresight.

Yup, I wouldn't be knocking either. Thank you for your service. Amazon?

If you register to vote in the new state, as long as you don't cast a ballot in the old state, you are fine. A number of people are in your situation. You can vote in your "other" state by absentee ballot*, or your "current" state by registering by the deadline defined in your current state. Extensive article about it here.

You are legally allowed to have multiple residences in multiple states. All that matters is you follow the rules, which means not voting more than once, and either registering an absentee ballot in the other state or registering in the new state.

Citizenship is based on country, not state. Unless you left out being a dual national (citizen of another country) I don't see why you can't vote.

* Some states have fickle laws about absentee ballots and it may require you to take a day trip on voting day.
