That’s too kind. I’d like to read about him in an orange jump suit.

Philosophically, restrictions on trans in sports is the one issue I will concede to conservatives.

That being said, we’ve got sooooo many other bigger problems to deal with. A government passing laws on transgenders in sports signifies a government that is more concerned with appearances and scoring cheap points than actually helping people.

In a democracy, you only get a voice if you vote. Voting IS the protest. When you don’t vote, or spoil your vote, you abdicate your voice.

can’t tell if pun intended

facepalm. Censorship absurdity.

In an alternate universe, conmen Trump and Musk used their sole talent of convincing fools to wear masks.

What’s really tiresome, and frankly depressing, is the amount of people who get conned by this shit. And they are so entrenched, it’s impossible to either reason or even empathize with them. It’s a brain disease. A cancer on our society, and we are all going to pay the price because of it.

Missed opportunity to fine Google $1 googol.

Selfish and dumb people may as well just be (involuntary) Russian puppets.

This situation has come to be, through the ignorance and inaction of ordinary people. Your attitude is part of the problem.

The proportions of Mace Windu’s forehead and chin stick out as incorrect

Corporate censorship. These companies are too powerful and tyrannical.

Whataboutism and a straw man in the same sentence. Smells like speed running trolling.

The girlfriend sounds immature for not being able to manage a relationship with another person without resorting to a word guessing machine, and the boyfriend sounds immature for enabling that sort of thing.

“Duplicate”/competing communities is not a unique thing to Lemmy or the fediverse. Reddit had multiple competing communities for the same topic–different management.

Just apply the same rules.

Receiving an education, and being wise are two very different things.

The article is ambiguous. It states “use IPv6” which at face value could simply mean support it together with IPv4. On the other hand, it states that they are running out of IPv4 addresses beyond what NAT can solve, so perhaps they may not have a choice in the matter.

If this is the nudge needed to transition, then great.

“Fragility” is the typical descriptor for this sort of thing. Advanced technology is very powerful, and that is obvious to see, but it also tends to fail readily without long-term planning, in disaster and war, of course, but also in more benign ways, like when a consumer becomes reliant on the technology for a way of life, and a corporation abused their unique ability to maintain the technology, and the consumer has no recourse.

Confounding with liberalism vs authoritarianism.

Man, I’ve been trying to migrate to Linux as my daily driver desktop over the last week. I love Linux passionately. But multi-monitor and 2.5Gb/s NIC support is just a disaster, basically to the point of completely unusable. It’s so frustrating. It keeps pushing me back to Windows, because Windows just works when it comes to hardware.
