  • Why don't Americans plant trees and bushes of stuff that they can eat in their houses instead of having useless grass?

  • The real answer is because in America rich people buy houses, and then create HOAs in the housing deeds and contracts to force all future owners to maintain the house in a way that will increase the neighborhood property value forever.

    HOAs exclusively fight to make houses more and more "valuable" since housing is a financial investment here

  • How many people have been sent to camps by the alleged Nazis?

    Soon to be 40,000 immigrants sent to Guantanamo, and 40,000 more to be put in the worst El Salvadorian prison, even if they are not El salvadorian.

    So you’re consuming nothing that comes from the US? By the way, do you participate in the animal genocide?

    This is a classist argument, this is not something you can even often choose to do if you live in a food desert, or are too impoverished to afford anything more than the subsidized US factory made scraps. It costs nothing to quit Twitter on the other hand, you're just an addict.

    But! I'm lucky enough to have local farmer's markets out every day near me, and the money to support them. Why would I not consume from the U.S.? I get to see the farms I buy from and meet these people, I have fed peanuts to Praggle's alpacas and pet their cows. They are local and I have seen that they don't abuse their animals, so I support them, yes. They treat their animals right and I buy their shit. I also don't digest gluten and have to make essentially everything I eat myself because of that so it's not even entirely an option for me to buy processed mass manufactured garbage.

  • it remains to be seen whether Elon Musk is a Nazi

    It has been seen.

    I’m pretty sure you also indirectly support monetarily services and countries you disagree ideologically with.

    Yes and when I recognize my avenues of support, I switch away and stop supporting things I don't like. I don't make excuses to keep using Dogshit.

  • You don't support them ideologically, but you are supporting one by giving ad viewership and personal data revenue to Elon Musk. Supporting a Nazi doesn't just mean you post good things about them online, and talk good about them in person. You support them monetarily by using their platform.

  • You hear about the illegal things federal agencies do almost entirely because there is a standard automatic declassification date that is about 25 years after report creation for most agencies. See Executive Order 13526 from Obama for more info as to why. Similar orders existed prior to Obama, but generally for longer time-frames than 25 years.

    But understand that the actual spooky stuff gets reviewed at the end of those 25 years, and does not get declassified. It gets determined to be a "continuing threat to the safety of the United States", and remains classified. This is the vehicle that a majority of JFK and MLK's assassination files have been recurringly re-upped for over 50 years (up until Trump's recent EO demanding the files get released [which is an absurdly terrible way to get these files declassified IMO but I guess we'll see how it goes]). All it takes to justify making a report "not ready for declassification" is the agency director's say-so, which can be for any reason including that it would foster a bad view on the federal government and/or it's agencies from its citizens.

    Anyways, this usually leads to FOIA requests on intelligence agencies (some agencies more than others) being nearly useless, because anything spicy will not be labeled unclassified and released to you. I think it's still a good idea to submit FOIA's to them anyway because it's always fun to make the FOIA offices squirm with their 100th annual request for information on Bigfoot, and it's not illegal (yet!) to do so.

  • It honestly (usually) does lead to a fantastic product! I maintain my own significantly used tools independently and completely agree. I also have seen locally (as a corporate pawn and life-long software engineer) what happens once somebody quits and no longer maintains their beautiful project(s).

    You work so much FASTER alone than you do in a group. You also can NEVER get as far with your tool when you work alone. I think the best FOSS tools are born from independent savant developers, but for them to reliably be carried on, they have to be passed down to SOMEONE. It's not your job to foster the entire next generation of tablet-children to be able to push golden commits to your curl 2.0 repo; it is pretty worthwhile to foster at least a handful of interested and headstrong people to understand your work in its entirety, and carry on its progress. And then they can do the same, and FOSS will live on forever (as it SHOULD be).

    You probably spent an obscene amount of time developing an S+ tier piece of tooling, it would be pertinent to spend another marginal month or so to raise some lil star to be able to mimic your work once you tap out.

    Having more free time is cool, but there's more things in life. As MC Ride said: "LIKE GETTING YOUR DICK. RODE ALL FUCKING NIGHT." Find some lil dick rider to carry on your shit.

  • if a maintainer doesn't want your sticky grubby toddler hands fuckin in their cookie jar, it's their fucking cookie jar and they can tell you to fuck off.

    Yeah, that is exactly how it works. And doing that leads to your tool dying since you have no clue how to foster a community to take care of it.

    • Intelligence Communities work with classified stuff more than anyone. You may only FOIA unclassified stuff so the information and documents you can FOIA is limited
    • OPM is the most important at the moment as they are the office primarily under attack and being abused by Elon Musk and DOGE. They are the vehicle that Musk is using and abusing to try and destroy all Federal workers across every agency.

  • Original creators and maintainers are hitting retirement age.

    And not many good younger people are available to take the mantle.

    This is the long-term cost of how persnickety FOSS maintainers are when it comes to accepting outside contributions to their work.

  • One thing I would like to say for people who aren't familiar and won't read the article:

    Every federal agency has its own FOIA team, in this case the OPM FOIA team was slaughtered and flayed for sport. It's possible other agency's FOIA teams were removed, but also more likely that they still exist. This wasn't a blanket death of all FOIA, just the death of arguably the most important FOIA team
