  • Are you sure this is usdefaultism, instead of merely stating that something doesn't happen in America? If he were in Belgium and stated this doesn't happen in Belgium, would you think he was assuming Belgium is default? Feels like you're (ironically) assuming something that isn't actually happening.

  • You'd be surprised which things affect our personalities and actions. I'd bet my left hat that you have some silly influences over you that you think are mundane and normal. And I bet those things make you more fun to be around too. Or less fun, depending on your company.

  • That goes deeper than simple horoscopes. If it wasn't horoscopes, it'd be religion. If not religion, race. If not race, diet. If not diet, hobbies. It's like talking shit about someone because they don't use your favorite distro. Is Linux the problem? Or is it someone's capacity to pass condescending judgements over silly things? Some people are insufferable. That's a people issue.

  • What's inherently wrong with witches?

  • So strange how people will throw snark at others for enjoying harmless fun.

  • Hell yeah! Sounds like a sweet deal.

  • I guess it's time for you to disrespect someone. I have the most adorable little thing imaginable, and I love her to pieces, but I cannot stand that she needs to be heard for hours at a time for as long as she isn't receiving attention. When I'm trying to get work done, when I'm trying to sleep, when I'm feeling ill, when I'm not in the same room as her, when all I need for a moment is some peace and quiet to keep from unraveling, having this tiny unrelenting screaming demon in my ear does not bring me joy. I don't need her to be quiet at all times, but I simply cannot function as a sane human if I have someone screaming at me when I'm exhausted or stressed out. It was cute for a month, but it gets old fast.

  • Will, you did, just now. Dunno where else you've seen it before.

  • Please read the comments you're responding to. You're not making sense.

  • No one's asking for perfect. But a better system would account for outages, which we've seen plenty of so far. How's that saying go? Don't let perfect be the enemy of progress? It's out of reach for a reason.

  • Yes, and? Things can be better.

  • "I'm unbiased, but I think you're lying for no reason at all!"

    You're a silly man.

  • I don't think you're wrong. Weak resistance is better than no resistance. I think the Epstein files should be released, and Trump's crimes be made undeniable. However, I have no doubt that we'll need much more than that to get results. Certain people being above the law is foundational to America's deepest flaws, and that won't change under the current regime (barring extreme circumstances). Those files are becoming a distraction when they should really be a little bit of ammo supplementing several large blows aimed at toppling the whole regime, not just the current puppet.

  • I'm not putting my faith in a hail mary, personally. Something like this won't make true difference, considering the things cultists have tolerated from leaders in the past.

  • Yeah, but who cares about online opinions?

  • That's not what makes it ridiculous to me. I think it's ridiculous that Google locking down android now costs me hundreds of dollars to deal with for no real benefit to myself. No shade being thrown towards Pixel or GrapheneOS. The circumstances are the problem. Google is the problem...which does place quite a bit of irony on the solution being a Google Pixel.

  • It's not hard to understand for me.

    I don't have a Pixel. GrapheneOS now costs me hundreds of dollars. I'd like to be able to flash a custom ROM, but I literally don't have the option without buying into it. I'm sure the Pixel is fine, but so is my current phone that also already cost me hundreds of dollars. This is a ridiculous problem to have.

  • Ironic. My first thought was to wonder if your comment was the result of a poisoned bot.

  • Settle down, grandpa. The world will spin another day if kids enjoy their free period a little bit.

  • I mean, sure, some men totally might do that. But I get the impression that you're just being condescending to invalidate someone else's experience, which may be more of a you problem than a "men" problem. I'd rather be the man engaged with his own simple life than the person who sees it as less-than for being simple, personally.
