This is probably connected to China cloning the entire GitHub website to their own servers.

Whoever is downvoting this needs to have an encounter with the U.S. legal system, so they find out how little their precious freaking "rights" are worth.

I finally switched to Linux Mint a few weeks ago. CoPilot/ Recall was the last straw.

It will definitely be decentralized. The biggest blows to real representative democracy happened when the courts made the "corporations are people / money is speech" arguments.

The only good news is that if they try to storm the Capitol again, they're not going to have Trump and his "acting" Secretary of Defense giving them cover this time.

Those troops are going to be loaded for bear.

I would also recommend Windows 98se, since it was the last (popular) operating system that directly supports DOS.

Hey, elementary school kids need connections for weed just like everybody else, so I'm sure that will happen all the time.

Also, if you give cops "qualified immunity" they might decide to start murdering innocent people for no reason and get away with it. Only that happens to be true.

This. I f*cking HATE having to vote for Biden. I've hated voting for Democrats for the last 20 years. But I'll vote for him this year because right now, our choices are between boring corporatists and 100% concentrated evil. I may hate my government but I love my country and I don't want it to end.

Antifa literally means anti-fascist. The guys who stormed the beaches of Normandy were "antifa."

NutWrench ,
@NutWrench@lemmy.world avatar

The only problem "antifa" is causing in the U.S. is having the nerve to complain when cops murder them and the cops never face any consequences.

I still have a Reddit account but I stopped posting anything to it a couple of years ago. I only use it for a few niche things I can't find anywhere else, like r/SamsungWatchFaces

We're good at scamming investors into thinking that a room full of monkeys on typewriters can be "AI." And all it takes to make that happen is to waste time, resources, lives and money, (ESPECIALLY money) into building an army of fusion-powered robots to beat the monkeys into working just a little bit harder.

Because that's businesses solution to everything: work harder, not smarter.

Cartoon could use a "priest" as well. Spouting Prosperity Gospel to keep the rubes in line. "My friend is rich because God has chosen him to BE rich, so his wealth is proof of God's favor!"

Sounds like Google wants to get out of the search engine business. Maybe we should help them. Try DuckDuckGo. Or SearX

I've been trying out SearX and I'm really starting to like it. It reminds me of early Internet search results before Google started added crap to theirs. There's currently 82 Instances to choose from, here

Corporations have no business (ha ha) writing labor laws because companies and Labor have completely opposite goals. If your union is letting the company write your union's bylaws, then you have a weak (probably non-existent) union.

Socialism:
A system of government where the country's wealth is concentrated into a small, ruling class of billionaires, who use the media they own to keep the lower classes fighting with each other while they . . . the rich . . . run off with all the farking money.

Oh wait. that's capitalism. I don't know how I got those two systems confused.

Try to think beyond your adorable little "protest vote" when your choices are between boring corporatists and 100% concentrated evil. Or you may never have to worry about voting ever again.

Every damn day during the Trump presidency would be about some stupid sh*t that Donald said or did. You literally couldn't keep up with it.

Yeah but the world will know about their adorable little "protest vote" and how Biden just didn't "do it" for them.

That will be our nation's epitaph.

If Reddit had a soul/conscience, I think it was us, and we're all on Lemmy now...

As a little background, I didn't actively use Reddit for months following the blackout. I still barely stop in over there and if I do I'm never logged in our contributing to the communities there (where I was previously a daily poster/commenter)....

I still have a few niche subreddits that I check a few times a month (like /SamsungWatchFaces) but I haven't posted anything there in ages.

Counterargument: in a nation with over 300 million guns, this situation won't continue indefinitely, in spite of what cops think.

Cops are also outnumbered by armed civilians by about 100,000 to 1.

The difference is, if rioters try to break into the Capitol building THIS time, they're not going to get bottled water and a pat on the ass. The Capitol police are going to be loaded for bear.

Let's see: Communism
A system of government where the country's wealth is concentrated into a small, ruling class of billionaires, who use the media they own to keep the lower classes fighting with each other while they . . . the rich . . . run off with all the farking money.

Oh wait. that's capitalism. I don't know how I got those two systems confused.

The biggest advantage of an unpiloted jet is that it can pull far more G forces. If your aircraft can make a 12G turn when most humans pilots start blacking out at 9, you're going to win any dogfight.

The entire point of the Fedi-verse is so that one person or small group of people can't ruin the entire platform for everyone else. Anyone who tells you how to moderate your content, backed up by a threat can screw off.

The pirates will simply move to another Lemmy Instance and re-create the group there. This is the advantage of having a decentralized platform: so one person or small group of people can't ruin things for the rest of us.

" . . . for U.S. intelligence."

Yeah. Sure. Right. Musk will sell Intelligence to ANYONE who pays for it and US taxpayers will foot the entire bill for constructing the satellite network.

And then all the contractors and politicians will all pretend to be surprised by this and Musk will get the finger-wagging of a lifetime.

This. Musk disabled Starlink to fark over the Ukrainians. He should not be trusted with any military contracts. Ever.
