ha. well I'm not evil, I care, and I haven't lifted a finger. why? cause the way it works here is money. if u want to do something, no matter how good or evil, you need a lot of money...

also hard to say what percent are fox news brainwashed, and what are truely Nazi.

Founders were looking for a 1bil payout 😂. they settled for 116mil 🤯...

why would anyone pay for a company that flopped so fantastically? this makes no sense at all...

honestly, I've had arch on all my machines for 5y now. the install was simple, as long as you followed instructions to the letter.

the rolling release is beautiful. i never ever have to go through the install again

unfortunately the polluters do a lot of greenwashing to get public goodwill. plastic recycling is one of them unfortunately. less than 1% of plastic in use today is recycled...

in the old days plastic recycling would only accept certain kinds of plastic. now they take everything. they don't recycle everything. they take everything. and throw out the other kinds at the recycling facility

I wonder if carbon capture is similar greenwashing...

honestly, I have this nagging feeling that stein only runs to deliberately split the democratic vote. she knows exactly trumps position on Gaza, facism and capitalism. and she looks the other way either for personal gain, or because she supports trumps positions

 
 

Unpaid Basar journalists write story following up on the tragic death of a six-month-old girl who had got caught in a crossfire the previous year as well as landmine deaths in the region. They also report on conditions of new schools, the salaries of teachers and the implementation of government schemes in the area.

One of the authors is murdered and his body is found in a septic tank in the area near his home. He was 32 years old. The main suspect was Contractor Suresh Chandrakar, who had recently had an extravagant wedding for which he’d used a helicopter and organised Russian dancers, and was a distant relative of the victim.

Dear Mark, I hope this finds you well. I noticed something interesting today - it seems Instagram is blocking links to my little open-source project. You know, the one that lets people share photos without harvesting their personal data or forcing algorithmic feeds on them. I have to admit, I'm flattered. Who would've thought a small team of volunteers could build something that would catch your attention? We're just trying to give people a choice in how they share their memories online. No VCs, no surveillance capitalism, just code and community. Remember when Facebook started? It was about connecting people, not maximizing engagement metrics. Our project might be tiny compared to Instagram, but we're staying true to that original spirit of social media - giving people control over their online presence without turning them into products. You could've ignored us. Instead, by blocking our links, you've given us the best endorsement we could ask for. You've confirmed what we've been saying all along - that big tech is more interested in protecting their walled gardens than fostering genuine innovation. Every time you block a link to our platform, you remind people why we built it in the first place. Your action tells them there are alternatives worth exploring, ones that respect their privacy and agency. So thank you, Mark. You've turned our little project into a symbol of resistance against digital monopolies.
