Ah yes, just what we need in a burgeoning online community: people discouraging interactions.

HereBeter is saying that trump is a legal criminal... you know, since he has been found guilty of many crimes, yet hasn't had to have any consequences.

This is a lot like how our government is all concerned about National Security™ when it comes to pretty much anything else, but a bipartisan bill, supported by both of the last 2 presidents, and upheld unanimously by our current dysfunctional Supreme Court, with National Security™ as the excuse, and we still have Tiktok.

Laws are only there so the ruling class can keep us in line and them in power, and they will never be enforced homogenously.

There is no place ... for intentionally mimicking Nazi salutes

I might need to disagree with this because earlier this week I saw a cybertruck and I had a very strong urge to throw a Nazi salute at it, and I think that should be how everyone reacts when they see one.

The volume of the pardons and the crimes of the pardonees

He's making room in the prisons for what he considers to be 'real crime' (anything to do with the marginalized or those who don't support him).

As for the travel argument, kids are so much fun to travel with! Experiencing new places through a child's eyes!? They ask some great questions, and you get to hone in your own opinions as you decide the best way to explain life to them. Travel is the best way to raise tolerant and knowledgeable children. If you're concerned about more... hedonistic travel just realize that you only get 18 to 20 years with them in your daily life, those designations will still be there. If you're afraid that's a long time then you likely haven't had your 20th high school reunion yet.

it simply produces things with bugs

And the small companies will realize that you need to start investing in your QA again - because NO ONE does adequate QA any more. Every piece of software I interact with these days is shit. If you are a developer, I'm talking to you: your code might be great, but the overall product is shit because no one is adequately testing the functionality. I get it, Testing is expensive... but now that you need fewer developers, hire some QA engineers. Just because we've moved on to 'continuous improvement' doesn't mean we can't do better.

skeet (the generally accepted term for a Bluesky post)

Can we just agree that they are all just "posts"? No more "tweets", "Toots", "xeets", etc... it's just a post.

This is one I made the day he was caught, it still makes me giggle.

The problem with getting working class candidates is they are too busy working.

 
 

I find it hard to believe that, outside of work computers, many people would be choosing Windows over Mac or Linux, especially is AI is their goal.

I'm also curious why the comments are turned off for this article unless it is a paid ad for Microsoft.

 

I have always called a light top with a full zipper to be a jacket, however the people I'm surrounded by insist on calling it a sweatshirt. I'm prepared to be wrong, just wondering if I'm the only one.
