You’re completely correct and I for one am hoping the recent events finally get Canada to break ties with the US so we stop enabling them. We also have our share of atrocities separate from the US that we need to atone for, namely the treatment of Indigenous peoples and the environment.

Reminder that the Democrats would be considered even further right than the Conservative Party in Canada. And Canada itself is still considered pretty right wing with no big leftist parties (NDP is still center-right at best)

Better sex education, access to contraception/abortion, and generally women having more control over when they have children/how many children they want to have under socialism was claimed to have taken “victims” too. Because if you’re not accidentally getting pregnant at 19 with no recourse other than giving birth to children you didn’t want, that’s oppression by a totalitarian dictator.

Firefox: We’re the “privacy” browser

Also Firefox: But I’m sure they won’t mind if we shamelessly erode that privacy. Just a little, and we can always gaslight them into thinking people asked for it.

When your 100% computer based job could have been done at home while petting your dog but management insists you come into the office so they can have more control over you.

Honestly if I had my current level of knowledge, probably hygene. Teach them to make soap (animal fat and a source of base like ash), wash their hands, keep poop away from potable water sources, stuff like that.

Remember, it literally took until Victorian times to figure out that washing your hands prevents disease.

Also, math. Teach them how to do basic arithmetic, how to use a unit of measurement to figure out how big something is, stuff we’d learn in elementary school but weren’t rigorously developed until the Ancient Greek age.

Money’s got nothing on hate. Nothing unites the Right more than hate, every fascist ideology centres around hate for a certain group. Be it Jews, Palestinians, Chinese, or Hispanics.

Why didn’t they just write messages to each other?!?! Are they stupid?

Politicians

Not American and out of the loop, is MAGA threatening to take people’s guns??? Didn’t have that one on my bingo card, I thought MAGA held access to guns in higher regard than access to water.

Any legal experts want to weigh in on whether this is even allowed? CC0 by definition has no limitations, but GPL very explicitly has limitations for what the code can be used for, and also applies to derivatives. If it was their own code but was officially submitted to the Linux repo, who owns it and gets to decide how the code can be licensed?

America going full sour grapes right now. “We weren’t the first to develop this technology so obviously the technology sucks and is not viable.”

Don’t forget your headgear!

I like the darkness because then I can’t see shit like this

Skill issue probably. They want to collect more but Musk’s shitty hires can’t figure it out. /s

Colour me unsurprised

Futurama

Why not just use and support fully open source alternatives like Krita, Inkscape, Kdenlive, etc instead of giving money to Adobe?

That glass is a liquid at room temperature, just a very viscous one so it doesn’t appear to flow. It’s not. It’s not a crystalline solid so it has an internal structure similar to a liquid, but the structure is definitely solid at room temperature because the components are not capable of moving relative to each other like a liquid would.
