The Russian regime would be more than happy to have their propaganda outlets branded “news”. But it’s not. And since it’s not a source of news, there’s no reason for Ground News to include it.
Besides which, RT has been sanctioned in the response to the Russian full scale invasion of Ukraine. This makes it difficult to maintain a business relationship, which linking might very well be.

196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•"Nah I don't want to go. You have fun though" rule
15·1 year agoThere are wine caves and cheese caves. I could spend several lifetimes exploring those.
Otherwise, no thank you.
The supposedly russian bad guys are mostly not actually russian. Mostly they are some variety of native Germanic speaking actors. If the casting department is going for authenticity, it may be someone speaking the wrong branch of Slavic.
If he’s proud of fucking a man, that’s fine. Weird way to write it, though.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What happens when the US runs out of SSNs?
2·1 year agoI don’t know how you could possibly fit 999,999,999 people into an SSN, or even the entire current fleet of US SSNs. And I don’t know how reusing numbers will help, given the time to build a new SSN. But it will undoubtedly be a disaster for the USN and the US. Hopefully, some of us outside the US, will be alive to make memes about it.

Reddit@lemmy.world•Reddit is DOWN for thousands of users
20·1 year agoWe may have our opinions about the qualities of Reddit. But the Daily Mail? I feel dirty, just having a link to that dump on my screen.
People: “This is a xylophone.”
Musicians: “It’s metallic, hint hint.”
People: “Yes, it’s a metallic xylophone.”

World News@lemmy.ml•‘Time is now’ to step up efforts for Ukraine peace, says Germany’s Scholz
4326·1 year agoStep up military aid to Ukraine significantly. That is the only way to peace. Giving in to russian demands would only lead to a short cease fire, before they launch their next attack.
That so many Germans have bought into russian propaganda is a major hurdle.

Technology@lemmy.world•Nissan develops paint that keeps cars cool in summer heatEnglish
22·1 year agoWhy would it be anything else?
It’s clearly too low a number to be °K. And since the only two valid units of measurement for temperature are Kelvin and Celsius, it must be °C.

memes@lemmy.world•I bet the one on the left doesn't even have a fake Swedish name.
2·1 year agoI’ve never been to a Starbucks. But from the content I see about them online, they do seem like a typical American fakery outlet.
Venti, that’s twenty in Italian, is a cup of twenty American stupidity units of coffee. And their new CEO has a commute in excess of 1600km!
Even if I enjoyed coffee, I would find somewhere else to spend my money.

36·1 year agoI’ve actually never found a name of an IKEA product to be fake. They can be obscure, odd, and some would normally be split. But never truly fake. Though, FEJKA does mean “to fake”. Which is an honest name for a series of fake plants.

Europe@feddit.org•About 500,000 trees cut down at site of Tesla gigafactory near BerlinEnglish
101·1 year ago• Whatever cars we produce, should be battery-electric.
• Eastern Germany is in need of employment opportunities.
• It’s a plantation, and Tesla is required to plant trees elsewhere.
• Elon Musk is a terrible human being. But at least in Germany, there is a functional government to oversee this factory.
Which is to say, I have no objections to Tesla building a factory here.
Addendum: Yes, public transportation is better, if you have it. Living in your workplace is even better. For some of us, driving a BEV is a pragmatic compromise. Hydrogen is wasteful and stupid. Fossil fuels, including most hydrogen, is fucking stupid. AfD (aka. “We’re definitely not Nazis”) thrive where unemployed is high. Those trees are now houses, furniture, and toilet paper. By functional, I don’t mean efficient, corruption-free, or anything like that in absolute terms. But compared to Texas, CCP-China, or most other places in the world, it is somewhat functional for the purpose of overseeing industry. Well, apart from those giant holes in the ground where there’s coal, and all those emissions scandals. And the German environmental movement is, in large parts, a bunch of unwitting russian sock-puppets. Ripened for the enshittification of the internet by decades of soviet/russian propaganda.

I’ve heard him mentioned as a possible next pope. Which would mean his papal name could only be a disappointment.
