The rich and powerful are going mask off about being above the law. Fuck you lizard boy, and fuck Meta and their “products”

What, you can’t measure the size of a room by timing the bounces of light hitting the walls?

I never heard of AltGr reffered to as “Meta”, except maybe in the sense of “Emacs modifier” which might be bound to it. Super is definitely the key between LCTL and LALT though

You can use Meta or Super as a more agnostic term

No, it’s the sequel to Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Battle Cars

I think that it’s mostly just Lemmy being less dominated by native English speakers. Many of those mistakes that seem baffling “make sense” in some other languages

Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard, just ask. I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS

[Redacted Friend’s Name]: What? How’d you manage that one?

Zuck: People just submitted it.

Zuck: I don’t know why.

Zuck: They “trust me”

Zuck: Dumb fucks

Failing implies trying

Ok 👍

I think you’re just reading things I didn’t say bud.

Funny, to me it’s kind of the opposite - we need to give diversified environments where people can feel welcome, not trying to jam everyone into one big “community” which is anything but.

I think that’s what was great about the forum and personal website era. If you wanted a place where you can use edgy language and spend your time shitting on things, there’s a website you could go to. Unicorns and hopeposting are over here. Nerds and geeks are over there.

That doesn’t mean segregating and creating ideology bubbles. Everyone can visit and be part of any, and can stay well away from the ones you know you don’t like. Take /b/ for example: it is famous for having a certain demographic, and if you don’t want to see it, you simply don’t go there. It’s not in your face, they’re happy about not having “normies” there, you’re happy about not having them in your digital home, every one wins. And if you’re ever in a certain mood and would like to venture in the woods, it’s there.

The same set of rules can’t fit all the possible users, purposes, times, etc. And although I also subscribed to the thought bubble theory , the counterargument that it’s actually the opposite - the lack of “social glue” between participants in discussions, made a lot of sense to me.

I’m not sure what your point is frankly.

You are first and foremost responsible for your own actions.

So you think countries should recognize and punish themselves for “being the bad guys”?

Do you see any country as having the “required moral standing” to judge others?

At least they’ll never find a complicit management. Still it doesn’t matter, I’m going to enjoy this space while it’s nice :)

Exactly what the big platforms want, and exactly what’s different about Lemmy. Low-volume, high-quality interactions

He really has no idea what “diplomacy” means does he

I know for certain the CEO at my company is like that. Not even how or why to do something, but what we should do. Fucking mental

Tolerate? The “people with the ability to do something”, by definition, would have done something if they wanted to. The powerful pursue their interests, just like everyone else. You can either get them to change their minds about what “the goal” is, or you change the people in power for some who align with the population. We should come up with a cool name for this crazy concept, like what if we used the Greek words for “people” and “power”‽

Not what you asked for, but you may be interested in getting a keyboard running QMK where you can define these kind of modifier overloading (and much much more) on the keyboard itself, so it’s “portable” and doesn’t require OS/DE settings
