What’s in the packet

What do you mean “throttle who can see you”. Lemmy is free like wordpress, as well

Upselling and throttling?

Hosting a static website is much much much easier and cheaper than hosting something with a backend like wordpress. A static website is essentially just an html file being served over a fileserver on port 80. I’ve seen people host them on top of a Minecraft server

Now THIS is leeching that I can get behind! Excellent work!

Well, buy european seems to include the UK as well. Some would even argue Canada. This forum is literally hosted on Feddit.UK

Lemmy moment

My phone runs on Europe

Don’t american eggs need to be refrigerated and cannot be eaten raw or something ridiculous

what you say is respectfully a load of shit.

I was arguing against a UI. You told me what I said was a load of shit. I responded to it. It’s kinda clear how I thought you were trying to argue for a UI with “but nhs bad actually” which I’ve heard a lot of people say when I argue that access to free healthcare is a good reason to stay in the UK

Ours N.H.S is on its knees

And how will a United Ireland fix that, exactly?

police are seriously underfunded

Per capita, the PSNI has more funding than the Gardai Síochána

Sinn Féin are the largest party in the North

Yes, because of constant Unionist Schism. They didn’t gain any seats in the last election. Stormont has 90 MLAs. By party lines, 53 are against a United Ireland, 36 are in favour.

The two problems you listed won’t be magically fixed by a United Ireland - if anything, they’d be made worse. So my point still stands. I wasn’t painting NI as a haven above other European countries - just that a United Ireland is a bad idea and we’re far better off under the current situation. People thought that Brexit would somehow magically fix the UK’s problems. It just made them worse. United Ireland is the same thing, if not on a worse scale.

The UK rejoining the EU doesn’t sound like a bad idea honestly. I keep forgetting we’re not in the EU

I’m Northern Irish.

This is a terrible idea. Northern Ireland is actually doing pretty well, and the standard and cost of living is lower than the Republic. The border is basically not there for British and Irish citizens. It’s just a matter of currency change and speed limit change. The EU backing a United Ireland would cause already a lot more distrust in the EU by Unionists to the point of breaking Stormont again (Keep in mind how difficult it was for Stormont to be happy with the Brexit arrangements)

As a matter of fact, Northern Ireland is actually starting to grow. It now has an economically advantageous position that a United Ireland would destroy. It has mostly customs free access to the UK market, access to the EU single market, and now is one of the few places in the EU single market that can export to the USA with a lower tariff rate. All for the price of a what is essentially line on a map (you can’t even tell exactly where it is IRL, the border isn’t that strongly defined legally or geographically)

Sinn Féin are disliked by both the Irish and British governments. They are the political wing of what once was the Provisional Irish Republican Army, a terrorist organisation.

I know it doesn’t curtail ideologically to either hardline side, but the current arrangement in place is good. I live in Northern Ireland and have lower living costs and more access to social services for free than someone would have in the Republic. In some cases, better than the mainland UK. We pay less for university education than England and also don’t have charges for prescribed medicine or even water usage. Our police are well invested in and Belfast is now one of the safest cities in Europe if you don’t get involved in paramilitary feuds or drug dealing. Life here is good, and a United Ireland would jeopardize that significantly.

I’d be honest, I think they should keep the bar and “made in Australia” but remove the text. The additional text is just ugly and looks bad than no label at all in some cases.

I do NOT want to be overrun by degenerate yanks, thank you very much

yes

oops
