You are correct but every little barrier helps.

Hate to just keep throwing out links to Wikipedia but … these techniques have been used to some success in the fight against fascism before.

It is much better if Linux and systemd say “oh gosh we’re not ready to implement that for at least another 2-3 years and even then only in preliminary implementations” instead of “yes sir right away sir we have that all ready to go at a moments notice, let me put that boot of yours right down my own throat”

Hey I’m not gonna disagree. I just provided an answer to what that person meant about “glowing”.

I’ll add another link that you might want to consider though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anticipatory_obedience

Nah, it’s Martin Shkreli

Yeah for planes I’m not worried about how to use the door, I’m worried about how I get from 20 000+ feet to ground level, safely.

For trains and buses it’d be more about hiking out from the middle of nowhere.

Either case I’m not actually worried, just saying that the logic of “trust no one but yourself” is flawed.

Remind me never to get on an airplane or train.

Buses questionable.

You missed. Your target is over here: https://lemmy.world/post/44020543

It’s always been wild to me how the seemingly-simplest change (“what is the name of this computer”) has so many little gotchas and quirks.

It is as long as you pay attention to who is in a group chat

Ah I am not bothered by the cryptocurrency … thing. It’s pretty well buried in the app, and doesn’t seem like anything they’re particularly trying to push. More like a failed experiment.

Why do you say signal is not the best option? My only discomfort with it is the phone number requirement (and I think they maybe relaxed that)

Saving a click: “the same landlord” is Asif Aziz, some billionaire asshole in the Middle East.

Fair enough. I’d never consider less to be a TUI program.

If it doesn’t support .beat time, I don’t care!

(Just kidding, always happy to see Linux in more places. But I do want my metric time.)

Someone has never configured a managed network router! Disorganized feature creep is the name of the game in there: gotta make sure the old commands still work exactly the same but add new ones constantly for new features!

I’d say vi is in a fuzzy grey area below a tui. It’s more than a cli but shares a lot with cli programs; it pretty much has its own command line built in. At the same time it has nothing like dialog box or menus like normal tui programs.

And we also grow soybeans to feed to Chinese farm animals

Well, not any more.

It depends on what is meant by “destroy”. I interpret it as “destroy in its current form”, not “erase from the map”.

Destroy in the way that Nazi Germany was destroyed, or the British Empire was destroyed. The people and places still exist, but are structured differently.

Not in the way that Palestine is being destroyed now where there is literally bare emptiness where the people were.

“Immigration and Customs Enforcement” —abbreviated as “ICE” — is the organization that he supports. He’s not in favor of immigration, he’s in favor of the organization that traditionally enforces immigration laws, in other words anti-immigration.

Also worth noting that this organization’s mission has been skewed from simply enforcing the laws into “kidnapping people with tan skin or or who have an accent” and generally being a modern version of the Nazi “brownshirts”. So that is what he is supporting.

He needs to go there personally to break ground though.
