Oh, fuck that. I'm so tired of that shit.
I'm not pro- or anti- either side, but the_donald were dicks.
Yeah you know what? I've had enough of fundies, I'll leave that thought there.
I'm not going to argue that some of the dislike she receives isn't due to racism or misogyny. There has to be an element of that.
But yes, phony is the perfect word.
Ms Pac Man obviously
I didn't know what I was doing so I chose at random.
God damn it I just had to delete a four paragraph answer
Long time Fedi user, first time Lemmy user here.
Defederation is one of the reasons society is so fractured now. We can't talk to our enemies, so we can't bring them round with compassion and logic. We just cut them out and they spiral into a more hateful and extreme version of themselves.
Obligatory post:
Make lots of plum wine. I shit you not, it's delicious.
And so is damson wine by the way.
Isn't hard real time in the kernel now?
Expand your definition. It's Authoritarianism you should really be afraid of.
When someone has their jackboot on your neck, what does it matter if it's left or right?
I'm a good old fashioned NAP following libertarian/anarchist.
I don't really care about the left or right paradigm - what I care about is how badly you and your cronies are going to buttfuck us.
Stoicism teaches us to only concern ourselves with things we can control. Everything else is external, and you can't affect it.
Read Marcus Aurelius and feel better.
It puts it's Configs in /etc/ or it gets the hose again.
Why you do dis lol
Australia here - we drink water straight from the tap, but I picked up the habit of drinking boiled water from my frequent trips to Shanghai.

I'll see myself out.
Phew! Not just me then
Wait, this post reminded me I don't know my instance rules
Well, it was nice while it lasted guys

I fucking love you
I run about an equal number of Slackware and FreeBSD boxen.
Actually experiencing racism in Japan.
If you're a white dude in a white country, you don't have any idea what it's like. My incident was super minor (being denied access to a restaurant) but it gave me a teeny peek into what life must be like for some people.
I'll take that on for you, brave warrior. It's the least Ican do.
Reanimator
Basket Case
Terror vision
Nightmare in a damaged brain
Demons
Brain Damage
And I could go on
It's exactly the way it was, but with higher version numbers for all the software!
Which is how I like it if I'm going to be honest. All the other distros are too clever. They overwrite your config files or put them in dumb places. With Slackware, I know where everything is and it just works.
The binary package manager is simple but effective, even if it doesn't have dependency management. That can be a bit of a pain, but it's a small one.
The latest release is brilliant.
Any better than a PSVita for emulation?
Yeah, I can't imagine it does you any good.
Last time I was there I got so sick. I haven't been back since the travel lockdowns.
First of all, good conversation. I'm enjoying it.
I've been around almost five decades, and I can say without a doubt that yes, there are and have always been divisions in society, but not this segregation into hate camps that exists now. Not on this scale - previously, only extremists would be so disconnected from society. Now, we drive them into their safe spaces.
Even milquetoast blue and red flag wavers are shooting each other regularly where before there would be some mild eye-rolling, and this coincided with the rise of social media, which, as you say, has always been segregated.
Understanding and moderation comes with only one thing - compassionate discourse. You can't do that if you block ban entire segments of the community.
Did you read the article I linked? What are your thoughts?
Do they drink it straight out of the barrel, or sterilized in some way?
Good question.
You just destroyed my childhood by the way
I use it for desktops and servers. It's rock solid, small (compared to Linux) and performant.
I wouldn't use it if you like to run windows games or software, and sometimes hardware support can be sketchy. I've been lucky.
Try it out.
I'd say they'll become niche. I don't think it will go away though.
I will always use fountain pens and paper until I die, and I think there are enough people out there who will do the same to keep a much reduced industry going.
Bigoted questions like this one.
Amen.
Rule 1: Authoritarian shitcunts get the rope
Rule 2: Be excellent to each other (with the exception of rule 1)
Rule 3: Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms is now a store
Holy shit that took me far too long to get.

Just what I've picked up from other people, I have no feelings about her whatsoever.
