  • Dan Dennet proposed teaching all major religions, with their history, in public schools.

    I think he believed it would innoculate.

  • Only one side does that.

    And really, I wish neither did and words and ballots worked.

    We need to uncap the house and some degree of order would be restored.

  • Entitled to nothing. Toxic by acting like they are entitled and now a slew of other people are toxic about a FOSS dev.

    But we sure do love FOSS, am I rite?

    It's like introspection or game theory mean nothing to people...

  • No. Every time FOSS comes up on Lemmy, FOSS adherents remind me why I'd never dip my toe in that mess.

    I use some open source, but I also pay to support it, so I'm not true FOSS. See: Home Assistant. I contribute to the support at times, and I'm familiar with the frustrations - and the need to be consistently cordial. And thick skinned.

    For all you know you're talking to someone on the spectrum. Perspective matters.

  • No, but carrying the grudge this long and vocally leaves me to wonder if the story is as crisp as put forth.

    And FOSS die hards put many people off of lemmy early on.

    Seek? Yes. Expect? No.

  • Too many FOSS users are toxicly entitled... It ruins things for everyone.

  • He's not obligated to provide that support. But the tone sure makes it seem expected.

  • Can you help me underatand where you proved him wrong?

  • It went from locker room talk with him acting offended children were being harmed (also by "illegals") to why won't he release the records.

    His baddy status is more confirmed.

  • Y'know?

  • Yes. The g folds in front and everything shortens.

    That's why we call them gls.

  • They need California to suck so they can feel better about Alabama.

  • When money has no bounds, the power it creates causes problems.

    Tax the rich like we mean it.

  • I'm over 50 and 8 go places and do things. Now... A lot of that is to be in and around nature, but I not some idle couch potato.

    That said, when the kids were still at home, some of the adventuring wasn't as feasible.

  • "Defense" sells better than "war."

    When we go to war abroad it is in "defense" of our interests.

    Please note the use of quotes. I'm not saying it should be this way. I'm saying that's the spin/marketing and that it works.

  • You keep putting words in my mouth and are clearly arguing in poor faith.

    I said no such thing and I'm done with you.

    Edit to add: people like you are why people leave lemmy or simply don't post.

  • I never said I supported it. That's something you read into it.

    Bombing of civilians is a long established part of war. As was looting, pillaging and anything else that reminded the populace that war sucks.

    Gengis Khan doesn't have as many descendents as he does because of consentual relations, for example. War is war.

    It's not pretty. And none of that is me saying it's okay.

    Find your villain elsewhere.

  • They may not, but it's part of the war.

    London was bombed. Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Go to Europe and hear how things were more beautiful before the war/bombing.

    Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.

    That said, I see Ukrainians as fighting for their survival and I dont fault them in the slightest.

  • They only mean states rights when it gets to their desired end point. To some degree that's human nature, but integrity is supposed to make it less common.
