Sure thing. Just remember its better to do things you want to do rather than waiting for things to be perfect. Lord knows its something I need reminded of sometimes

It used to be more browsable and less infested with every top ad being ad spam and whale crunching, but ad spam and whale crunching apps make google the most money

I think the argument would be that if money is freedom of speech then so should surveillance capitalism

1. No better time than the present
2. Yes there are ways of acquiring the latest packages even on Debian stable. Usually I end up compiling that stuff myself
3. If you’re at all unsure if you want to deal with Debian not pushing the latest and greatest updates you do have options such as running Debian Testing or MX Linux (which itself is based on Debian Testing)

SAFe SCRUM is a fucking scam. Anyone who proposes it as a solution to a problem is out of touch and doesn’t recognize a waterfall when they see one

We’re British imperialists at the end if the day. We traveled across the seas to a new continent and destroyed it for… So little benefit

Yuuup. This blog post is the exact sentiment I see from people with postgraduate degrees in the field of machine learning. The current, public facing, machine learning AI implementations are various forms of theft, grift, and exploitation. They exist as the new testaments to violence of the neocolonial era

So. You don’t need fixed. You’re fine. You’re going through life and you’ll figure out what works for you as you go.

That said, it does kinda seem like you have a misconception about what therapy is. Its not about making you fit in with the rest of the world. Its about helping you accept yourself, appreciate yourself, and love yourself for who you are. I won’t tell you to try it since you so specifically said you didn’t want people saying that, but I hope someone else reading this finds something to connect with on a journey of self love and self acceptance

Old man yells at exploitative capitalist practices*

Randall Cunningham Seizes the Means of Production

PornHub is a monopoly. They own xnxx, redtube, xhamster, and several production companies such as brazzers. Their categorization system has also had some ranging impacts on actresses’ ability to get work after they turn 22. I highly recommend listening to The Butterfly Effect by Jon Ronson.

ALSO so we’re clear, I’m not a fan of this legislation because its dumb as fuck and doesn’t help anyone, least of all sex workers. When people lose easy access to porn it usually results in WORSE conditions for sex workers because suddenly there’s more demand in places without safety infrastructure.

This particular platform (Lemmy) probably isn’t the place to get the movement going either. Some of the biggest instances are chock full of folks thinking this particular genocide isn’t real

Bruv you are severely misremembering the movement that allowed the alt right to coalesce. No one is saying it’s bad to not buy products you don’t want to buy. We’re saying it’s seriously concerning the racism and sexist that attached itself to that movement has congealed into something permanent in our political climate

Wyoming is investing heavily in wind even with the understanding that current turbine designs ultimately cost money to repair and operate as opposed to being a solution that pays for itself. The conversion of a coal plant to nuclear is part of a long term strategy to reduce environmental impact. They’re taking a long view approach that solar and wind can’t in the short term do what they need it to do but that continued use of coal, at all, even just for the short term, is untenable. Meanwhile, Wyoming is ALSO investing in research on using nuclear byproducts to generate electricity. I have a lot of complaints about Wyoming and how chill they are with the alt-right but I have to commend them that their energy strategy for their state basically reflects what we all need to be doing

Yup. That’s what people generally do. If you get custom special domains you’ll use it for new stuff and the old stuff will continue on old patterns

A lot of their URIs predate .int and they don’t want to break those links

They’re insecure and hate the real version of themselves is my interpretation. Instead of confronting that and moving forward with work to become a better person they instead put up a facade, often justifying the harm they do to the people who believe in the facade by convincing themselves that these facades are common to all people, and everyone is fake

How many times did Trump show his true colors before getting banned? Twitter’s moderation policies were better pre-Musk but they were far FAR from acceptable.

I view the bigger issue as Meta is hostile towards humanity’s privacy and freedom, and Mastodon leadership view Meta joining the Fediverse as an unqualified win. Meanwhile, I don’t think Meta is interested in ActivityPub as a protocol to make Instagram Threads more appealing, I think they’re overall much more interested in what data the can gain, and sell, analyzing the interactions between their own user pool and the rest of the fediverse that user pool interacts with.
