What am I missing in the “end Kernel panic” one?

You actually think you’re going to rise up and fight against your national army? How about fighting for a better democracy instead, like by getting rid of Gerrymandering, abolishing corporate lobbyists, adopting preferential voting etc

Oh no! I only got an education from my school and didn’t get to fire a gun even ONCE! Let me go sit in a corner and cry myself to sleep with my secure, well paying job and free health care. By the way I’m in army reserves and get paid to shoot rifles and automatic guns at firing ranges. It’s okay, I guess, but I wouldn’t go if I weren’t paid lol

Cool, I just installed Thunderbird and am giving it a go.

I would totally read that book

I’m all for getting into old school tech, I even like to browse neocities.org on occasion just for the hit of nostalgia for the old web rings. I never got into newsgroups though, and I’m wondering what reasons you might use that instead of something like Lemmy, Mastodon etc?

Apart from the piracy side, I know all about that already lol

How dare they!

You motherfucker

Maybe to avoid confusion, they should just display units in GB instead of GiB? Or just display both

I wish he had the balls to follow through with it

This is fucking amazing

I like the idea of calling it ex-twitter. I came up with the idea when I was having a shower… Hang on… there’s a community for that! brb

I wish I could just up and buy a farm, that sounds like the life to me.

Unfortunately the Republicans agree with them on this point

“Someone could get the most votes, and not win!” McCarthy said at the time… “So if you come in 3rd, you win. What? ‘I got a lot of second votes, I got a lot of 3rd vote — what does that mean?’”

I don’t think it’s the “Black areas” that are getting confused about how it works. Or perhaps he’s just pretending to not understand? 🤔🤔

Happy birthday!

Ublock origin works too

I looked for a lazy way to get myself a Tux sticker and found this pack of stickers for $1

Bargain!

Exactly! Although I find dishwashing detergent dries out your skin a lot more, so I wouldn’t try using that lol. Shampoo has a pH closer to your skin than a bar of soap, so is really quite well suited for it.

What it seems to me that you’re suggesting is essentially crowd sourcing a mix of investigative journalism and data analysis, which is not a skill I think that just anybody can pick up and do properly. To be fair I’ve never tried my hand at investigative journalism, but I have done a few units of data analysis and trust me there’s a hundred different ways to do it wrong. Even among the experts, there’s a lot of disagreements to what the best approaches are. I had a teacher even say that if you give a set of data to 10 data analysts, you’ll get back 12 different ways of interpreting it.

That is all to say that I’m not sure how much you’d be solving by providing another forum for people to post their takes on public policy issues, but then again if you manage to attract the right crowd of critical thinkers, who also happen to be open minded enough not to insert their own agendas into matters, perhaps people might hold each other accountable?

BTW have you checked that something similar doesn’t already exist? Insert obligatory xkcd comic:
