Asa backend dev, it should be a 503 error. I live in 503 land.

Or a docker container.

I mean, that void clearly looks like it has an opinion.

Yeah, but paying $300 for one is crazy for the average home user. If I am spending company dollars, then sure, there is a reason to go for the brand name. But for my home setup I want something between cheap and crazy expensive.

You got a bona fide LOL when I saw this. Well played.

The entitlement of the younglins these days. I swear, they are getting soft. I have to take the current year, and add twenty, but the lazy ass youth just have to subtract their birth year from the current year. Maths will suffer because they don’t have to do addition. Pure insanity and liberal malarkey.

Oh yeah, /s

Birds aren’t real, duh.

So, er, what does a poop emoji mean?

And that is the sheer absurdity: doom as a device driver. Sheer and unabashedly luncacy, because why the fuck not. I approve

Heretic

I am pretty sure that your goal qualifies as evil chaotic. Not because the game is evil, but because the platform is Emacs. I mean, everyone knows it’s Vim.

For a minivan, hilarious.

I was just wondering if I should make an impulse buy for my Mach-E

Hard disagree. I want to interact with the grandma’s and family that aren’t tech savvy. The Fediverse promise is one where the user has the power. I don’t see how Meta will change that. All I see is that the Oklahoma asshole who wants to debate will get ads and I won’t. Commerical sponsors of the Fediverse is validation of the idea, so let it happen. Yes, Meta will see my username and will try to make ads happen, but thats not what Meta needs or wants: they need high quality content and will accept that some of it they can’t monetize. But if they can monetize those users in their corner, then they see value.

This comment is the one we should be talking about. We all lack empathy, at least politically and socially.

Plenty of people who have had children and raised them are against paying school taxes after their kids leave school. The number of times I have heard Grand parents talk about unfair it is that they have to pay taxes on schools is insane. Source: lived in a community where the average age was 72.

The beauty of this is the pendatic fixation on the definition of profanity. Sure, no one is going to think OMG is profanity but it means the definition.

Most underrated comment

Conversation with right, left, middle, whatever are only productive if based on a principalled ideology. I disagree with the NeoCons of Bush and Cheney, but at least there is an ideology to work with. MAGA, on the other hand is defined by no principals other than authoritarian aims of “winning” where “winning” is making the other side mad.

The post truth world we live in makes this hard, though. Right now there is no shared truth, and with varied truthinesses out there, it makes the conversation hard. Using flat earthers as an example, the sheer rejection of math and science is astounding; having a principalled conversation is hard when the foundations are different.

And with 24hr news, breaking news, and global news, and only so much news worthy content, there is an incentive to come with with differentiation and that creates eco chambers. News Max isn’t going to bring on a CNN contributor (and vice versa) to challenge their views.

I mean, to be fair, how many real people can post 600 times a day?
