Of course they did. I would honestly be more shocked beyond belief if even one police officer faced consequences for their actions just once in this country. And no I don’t mean the ones that get fired for whistleblowing on their fellow cops for being pieces of shit.

The best laser printer is a Brother laser printer from 10+ years ago before the cartridge subscription bullshit.

I landed one for $5 on Craiglist and have it connected through a CUPS server so I still have the modern ability to print from any device on the network.

This is just Lemmy and the whole “leftist” influencer sphere (read: people who watch Hasan Piker and take him seriously).

I completely agree with everything you mention here but you’re going to make a lot of Lemmies very mad.

They aren’t open to real discourse and will literally ally with Republicans if it means they can take down Democrats.

Damn. How does one learn to build this kind of stuff as a teenager?

Smart man. This is how we fight being replaced by AI.

When the game is open world but no fast travel or mounts.

Interesting. I’ll take a look. Maybe I’ll keep on Obsidian for work and logseq for personal stuff

Yeah I’m dumb. I use Obsidian daily but never actually tried Obsidian Canvas. Just played around with it just now and it’s perfect. Thanks! /thread

I might have to try PieFed. I think this might inspire me to.

I almost left due to the toxicity of the tankie triad but luckily I learned the block features work well.

I think it’s also a lack of tech understanding. I know how easy it is to fork a repo so I get how great the fediverse is with all the services being FOSS and anyone can create an instance. This major benefit makes no sense to someone who doesn’t even know what a git repo is or the difference between free (but you are the product being sold) and FOSS.

We aren’t sure. It’s still a billionaire owned social media. For some reason people are too afraid of the freedom actual decentralized social media gives them and they want a billionaire behind the scenes running everything and coralling them to the correct opinions.

America is too large to make generalizations about it. Politics, culture, and beliefs are all very highly localized and even worse, it’s land that votes, not people. People who come from countries the size of a single US state will never fully understand.

Oh look. The Russian agents are openly operating in the US now and killing US citizens they deem enemies.

Did she fall out of a window or get unexplained radiation poisoning?

i think they will probably be safe. Trump is in the pocket of tech billionaires and they need cheap labor.

Bruh. Just put Rust on your resume. It’s not like they’ll actually check and you can still Google everything.

Like I said:

“Maybe these people are too terminally online to attend protests”

So I agree you can’t extrapolate the behavior of society as a whole from what happens on Lemmy, but you can use it to pinpoint outliers.

I was just using the .ml instance as one example to show that “democracy” isn’t as universally unifying as OP thinks.

Will they though? The biggest lemmy instance are a bunch of anti-Democratic pro authoritarian tankies. Maybe these people are too terminally online to attend protests but I don’t think we can just assume Democracy is some universal thing we can rally people behind. As they say, if Republicans can’t win via democracy, they will simply abandon it.

“Self-host” is just a euphemism for “pirate” right? …Right?

I’m fine with letting them have whatever they have so long as they let the rest of us secede. America is proven to be a failure and liberal minded people are no longer represented. If they want to fight us a la civil war to force us to stay in I’m willing to shed blood, but it would be better for everyone if they just let the country go it’s separate ways.
