Doubt.

@null@slrpnk.net avatar

It’s an easy problem to solve, just run a different guy.

Deal, how do I do that?

@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Doubt what?

That you'll execute on that specific conditional.

So my doubts have been confirmed. Glad you fell on the side of voting anyways.

If you think I'm being ridiculous, I could flip through my history and find a dozen folks who would unironically holdfast to the letter of your original comment.

So is your vote contingent on whether people in this thread demonstrate that they have/will "do more than just vote"? If they don't, will you abstain from voting?

I guess I'm unclear.

Has ethernet become illegitimate? A librarian flipped out after spotting me using ethernet

I plugged into ethernet (as wifi w/captive portal does not work for me). I think clearnet worked but I have no interest in that. Egress Tor traffic was blocked and so was VPN. I’m not interested in editing all my scripts and configs to use clearnet, so the library’s internet is useless to me (unless I bother to try a tor...

Could I be in the wrong? No, it must be literally everyone else in this entire thread / national library network.

Grow up. You set out to get in trouble, you got yourself in trouble, no one is impressed.

Is your position so weak that you need to resort to a bandwagon fallacy?

It's not a fallacy. Your social skills are toxic and that's been confirmed by everyone here. You aren't in a position to judge how your actions are perceived by society.

If everyone says you're being an asshole, you're being an asshole.

and an ad hominem?

This isn't a formal debate. It's me and everyone else booing you for your bad behavior.

Please cite the definition of public service that includes all the things you've described; access to the internet via Ethernet on a personal machine running the various software you mentioned.

Quote the passage that outlines those details.

Why not take it a step further? I can't get to the library so they're denying me my human rights by not running cables right to my house so I can access it without that restriction.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

So quote the specifics of what was funded as is relevant to your case.

Again, if they don't run that line to my house, are they violating my human rights? Or are there boundaries around what defines the service?

Stop modifying your comment and answer my response.

@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Lol no, you edited it multiple times over the course of 7 minutes, radically changing the context of what I had already replied to.

That's not the same as tweaking a few things within a minute or 2.

Edit: suddenly its 10 minutes? Why not just retcon your entire post? At least have the courtesy to note significant edits when you've already gotten a reply

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Still waiting on an answer that's not just about evidence you couldn't find and feel would be pointless, and for you to actually prove your bold, human rights violation claim...

Posted 24 minutes ago, edited 15 minutes ago.

I refreshed and watched you edit multiple times over that period.

Stop lying.

null , (edited )
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

You edited in the "wait five or ten minutes" after I had already replied.

Edit: You'll note that I indicated that change with my own, clearly indicated edit. You know, common courtesy.

Edit: and you STILL haven't replied to my initial response.

Just because it's a public resource doesn't mean you can break in after hours, and just because you don't have a phone doesn't give you permission to sidestep their security policies.

@null@slrpnk.net avatar

I know five min was in the original version.

Lie.

Edit: the whole last sentence was the edit.

I notice you STILL can't defend your bold claim about human rights.

Edit: Nice Ad HoMiNeM btw

Okay, I stopped approving them. Now what?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

How do I make him do that?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Okay, that's what not to do. But that wasn't the question.

Can you answer the question?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Then those people are telling us they're comfortable with a Trump presidency. Sounds like a dangerous group to me.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Okay, so we do that right up until election day, but he doesn't stop. What's the move?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Of course not. But how do we vote?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

So you're saying that putting up that fight under Biden or Trump -- no difference.

The political climate would be more or less identical, and those big problems would be equally easy to solve under either administration?

Project 2025 thanks you for your efforts.

Just out here telling on yourself, huh?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Yes you did.

Weird, I use it all the time. Even starting to use it for work to save a ton of time on simple, time-consuming work.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

So I just install the app, sign up, and I can start watching whatever?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Well that certainly sounds more difficult than any streaming service I've ever used.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Certainly sounds more difficult than Netflix.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Okay, but I can pretty much guarantee my mom couldn't figure out how to set that up.

But she can get Disney+ going no problem.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

So you understand it, and yet refuse to acknowledge it or reply to any specifics about it. Instead just shout "YoUrE mAkInG eXcUsEs for GeNoCiDe!!"

Sounds about right.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Yes?

This is the big thing keeping me on a subscription music service.

@null@slrpnk.net avatar

You've conveniently ignored the posts proving that you're lying. Why?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Go ahead an challenge them then. We're waiting.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Can't do it, eh?

Typical troll.

@null@slrpnk.net avatar

I don't think they were calling the other user a tinfoil-hat wearer.

I think they were (joking) suggesting it as a solution to the problem of advertisers reading out brainwaves.

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

They didn't say discord is basically the same as matrix though...

They said the problem is the same for both platforms in this context, which is true. Public posts can be scraped.

@null@slrpnk.net avatar

Don't worry, they used "slammed" too

[US] At a sushi restaurant, is it considered good ettiquette or bad ettiquette to order rolls cross several rounds?

When we go out for sushi with friends we usually order as a group and order a couple of specialty rolls for the table at a time, sometimes making several orders through the evening as time and appetites allow. The idea is manifold: not to over-order food, to spread out food delivery as we drink sake and socialize, to "pipeline"...

Then don't go out to eat at places that take tips.

You aren't helping the problem, you're just an asshole.

Reminder: crypto isn’t solarpunk. It’s cyberpunk.

Listening to a recent episode of the Solarpunk Presents podcast reminded me the importance of consistently calling out cryptocurrency as a wasteful scam. The podcast hosts fail to do that, and because bad actors will continue to try to push crypto, we must condemn it with equal persistence....

How polluting is it?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

That's just Bitcoin though. What about other implementations of crypto?

null ,
@null@slrpnk.net avatar

I think there are good things about it, insofar as some kind of currency is necessary for a society to function at scale.

I like the decentralization, and the open-source nature that allows platforms to be built on top for things like streaming and splitting funds with no middlemen.

Apart from the flaws inherent in any form of currency, and potential environmental impacts of some implementations, I haven't really heard any compelling arguments for why cryptocurrency is "bad".

They never do.
