  • How do you destroy the notion that Democrats are the good guys? Americans seem like a lost cause on that regard

    Jump

  • Stop re-electing these ancient incumbents who are WAY too comfortable being Republican-lite. Vote for younger candidates, preferably someone who was born AFTER the Battle of the Bulge.

  • White House says it will not return the Statue of Liberty to France

    Jump

  • Some should tell that dumbass that was sarcasm to make a POINT. Besides, Donald would rather melt down the statue into Trump coins, or replace it with a gold plated statue of himself.

  • "Trump Derangement Syndrome" as a mental illness

    Jump

  • Unless real doctors accept this as a real illness, it's just politicians jerking off.

  • Don't blame Satan if things don't work out. It's God's plan right?

    Jump

  • I'm also sick of hearing people say, "God never gives you more than you can handle."

    I know people who have been driven batshit insane by what God has given them.

  • Texas lawmakers file FURRIES Act, targeting animal roleplay in schools

    Jump

  • So does this mean no more Christmas plays about Jesus, where the kids dress up for the manger scene as donkeys and camels? Or will there be a "special exemption" for that?

  • Musk shares post that Hitler didn’t kill millions, public workers did. Union rages

    Jump

  • Musk needs to be strapped into a chair, "Clockwork Orange" style and forced to watch all 9 hours of "Shoah."

  • Will wine ever be able to run anticheat?

    Jump

  • Will wine ever be able to run antiCheat.

    I hope not. I switched to Linux to get away from malware and spyware.

  • Israel not 'withholding' aid to Gaza, but rather protecting aid workers, US says

    Jump

  • This is the same Israel that was targeting and bombing food relief convoys last year, right?

  • What Lemmy app do you use?

    Jump

  • For me, it's a close race between Boost and Connect.

  • Trump's 'Transgender' Mice Experiments Were Cancer and Asthma Research

    Jump

  • Or that the same word can have multiple definitions.

  • Trump's 'Transgender' Mice Experiments Were Cancer and Asthma Research

    1. It's transgenic, not "transgender"
    2. Asylum Seekers are not from insane asylums (yes, they actually believe that, too. These are just ferociously stupid people.

  • Disney Introduces Christian Character After Ditching Transgender Story

    Jump

  • Yup. Disney doesn't stand for anything. They just pander to wherever they think the money is.

  • FBI Warns iPhone, Android Users—We Want ‘Lawful Access’ To All Your Encrypted Data

    Jump

  • It's not my responsibility to make the FBI's job (or any cop's job) easier.

    Also, folks should be using 3rd party open-source encryption, like VeraCrypt and a password manager that encrypts the database, like Keepass. Don't ever expect governments and corporations to respect your privacy.

  • House Judiciary GOP account posts 'Rickroll' instead of Epstein files link, sparking backlash

    Jump

  • Conservative "humor" is always dumb, blunt and obvious. Or in this case, wildly inappropriate.

  • I need to vent about Windows. I want workplaces to use Linux.

    Jump

  • This. If updates are SO important, then Windows can do it while it's shutting down.

  • (Meta) What's up with the recent influx of posts here and on nostupidquestions asking borderline insane questions as if written by people who have never encountered another human before?

    Jump

  • I think the questions are from bots, testing topics to farm controversy or outrage points. The greater the number of replies, the more likely the topic will be used in a future marketing or agit-prop campaign.

    So you get these really stupid, controversial, psychopathic takes that no one should be taking seriously. The point of the exercise is the emotional reaction, the outrage, not getting a serious answer.

  • This ancient aliens nuttery has been around since the 1950s, with books by Erich Von Daniken and Immanuel Velikovsky. Much of their "proof" can be easily refuted by anyone with a basic understanding of science.

    Carl Sagan did an amazing point-by-point counter of Velikovsky's "Worlds in Collision" in his book "Brocas Brain"

  • Elon Musk’s X blocks links to Signal - Signal has been a primary method of communication for federal workers looking to blow the whistle on DOGE.

    Jump

  • There must be a hundred third-party freeware apps that let you encrypt files. Heck, even zip archivers have a password protect option. If you're a whistleblower, you're going to be collecting data over long periods of time, not sending instant messages. You can use OnionShare (droid-ify) to create temporary TOR links if you really need to share a file quickly and untraceably.

  • If nothing happens after we die, what's the point of it all?

    Jump

  • This. "It is a cheap generosity that promises the future as compensation for the present."
