How do you know if someone is a Linux user? Don't worry, they'll tell you. Lump them in with Vegans and Crossfitters.

My friend ordered an omelette without the eggs before, and it worked. A server wouldn't sell me a double shot of Jager because it was "too much alcohol" but had no problem selling me two single shots at once.

All depends on how accommodating your server is.

Four*. FICO is another one and at one time was most commonly used for home mortgages. Not sure how true that is today, but it's still very much in use.

You're right. But, the Fediverse is ActivityPub, and Threads is using ActivityPub, therefore Threads is part of the Fediverse.

The beauty of the Fediverse is you can defederate from whoever you want. But don't confuse that with thinking that you can change the definition and rules of what the Fediverse is.

Please, for the love of God, VOTE! (pawb.social)

I don't like Biden either, but anyone with half a brain knows there are two choices in the 2020 election. If we had a sane voting system, voting third party might be worth it, but as it stands, no one but you knows your favorite candidate exists and unless you want to become their campaign manager that will still be true in...

The Green Party and the Libertarian Party are how we got Trump the first time around. The stakes are too high.

The traction she got in 2016 is the reason we're having this conversation.

joenforcer ,

He can't do it because Congress is too divided because you didn't fucking vote.

What's your plan that makes the endgame not genocidal? Remember to make it fit reality.

Edit: Disregard. Previous comment broke site rules and I take it back. I apologize.

joenforcer ,

You're right. Forgot where I was. Apologies.

Greedy little pig boy

This feels like a hasty "solution" to an invented "problem". Sure, Wikipedia isn't squeaky clean, but it's pretty damn good for something that people have been freely adding knowledge to for decades. The cherry-picked examples of what makes Wikipedia " bad" are really not outrageous enough to create something even more niche than Wikia, Fandom, or the late Encyclopedia Dramatica. I appreciate the thought, but federation is not a silver bullet for everything. Don't glorify federation the way cryptobros glorify the block chain as the answer to all the problems of the world.

Calling out a government for flagrant propaganda has nothing at all to do with race.

joenforcer ,

If the government told me that my "score" dictating my ability to participate in society would be greatly affected based on what I thought of the government, I'd support the heck out of that government too.

To be fair, I tested this question on Copilot (evolution of the Bing AI solution) and it gave me an answer. If I search for "those just my little ladybugs", however, it chokes as you describe.

Worth it how? I feel like every post that claims about how much better Linux is after handling a bunch of tweaks and hacks and workarounds to get into baseline functional doesn't really get into what actually makes it better. After all of that heavy lifting, you're already at a disadvantage and I still hear nothing of the benefits. I start to wonder if the "better" is justification for all the effort that goes into tricking it to work rather than being meaningfully superior.

joenforcer ,

Ignore this guy. I'm seeing a lot of "both sides bad" hot takes lately and I get the feeling we're seeing a lot of seeds of doubt disinformation spreading like we got back in 2016. Abandon the troll, he can't vote anyway.

joenforcer ,

Nobody said any of that. Get over your persecution complex.

Opera IS a Chromium browser, you doofus!

I buy Monero to have freedom from being watched by banks and governments.

Boy, do I have some very, very bad news for you...

Enshittification exclusively defines online platforms. Stop using it for everything.

joenforcer ,

It's almost never broken. I have only been turned away for a broken machine one time ever, and McFlurries are more or less a monthly treat.

Sorry to break the internet meme, but I'm pretty sure this isn't all that common.

Which was an enshittified version of Songza. Google lost me for music a loooong time ago.
