...yes, that's what I said. But sign them locally. Do not put your private key on Protons service. Sign and distribute pub keys locally.

Probably should have clarified.

Also, paid IMAP/SMTP makes Proton a freemium service. Thought I should just underline that.

Why is this downvoted? This is 100% correct.

No, I wasn't referring to her. FFS. Like I understand why you would say that, because him considering his own suffering is just too selfish to be taken into consideration when asking why he did it, and us considering it as a part of his decision making process or that laws and systemic issues line this shit up like bowling pins? Noo! That's not allowed when considering motive... he's just EVIL which is a scientific term and influenced by SATAN because he DIDNT VOTE REPUBLICAN and probably LIVED AMONGST IMMIGRANTS /s

Like seriously, Americans are fucking stupid sometimes.

Bro... I just listed the reasons... like if you don't want to understand human nature, human psychology, sociology or why systemic issues are apart of creating the conditions that would allow this to happen, then that's your dumbass problem.

Like seriously. Read a fucking book - and not the Abrahamic ones. Those rot your brain.

Once more, and I'll probably be dogpiled this time as well, but democrats are neo-liberals and republicans are (traditionally) classical liberals. "Conservative" is short hand for "socially conservative liberal".

Liberalism is a right wing ideology, designed by political philosophers and gamed by yee olde barons and aristocrats of yesteryear to give us this soft-imperialistic oligarchy that has been built on the backs of labour in the west, as well as the wage slavery in the east.

Case in point, the Tories in the UK are also liberals, whose Brexit campaign solely wanted to prevent immigration - although getting rid of EU fiscal regulations was probably the real reason.

"Evil" is a social construct for people in the dark ages, because it holds as much merit as believing in fairies.

Again, you are really in denial of human nature, and as such don't know that the conditions I mentioned set the stage for this kind of thing to happen.

Do you know that you can be corrupted, that you can commit murder, if the conditions are right?

Wouldn't put it past them. Dubai is built on the backs of slaves.

In fact, it reminds a lot of old US slavery. Enforcers, catchers, etc. The whole shebang.

The two paths merged reveal a third option: the manbear.

"Inconvenienced"?

Oh I'm sorry. Taking care of someone for the rest of their lives, not being able to, not having the means to and all the while suffering for it is something you think is a walk in the fucking park?

I think the key word here is "suffer". Americans worship suffering. It gives them a hard on. So when someone wants to end the suffering, that's an insult. Typical ugly American mentality, devoid of any understanding for human nature and full of piss and vinegar. Also, it's unrealistic and kind of naive, because I bet this happens more often than you think - but it's hard to actually figure out. Why? Let me count the ways.

You have a judicial system committing mass judicial murder on a weekly basis "because you can't afford the fight the case", a for profit health sector that would pull plugs in concert if an insurance company told them to, doctors and surgeons dodging malpractice suits on a cross-state basis like it's a sport and you're probably happy knowing he'll be sent to a for profit prison system that makes profits in the billions, where he'll become a slave for the state to "pay back his debt to society".

But sure, means and needs were not the issue. He should have pulled himself up by his bootstraps and gotten that 4th job.

Both are great projects really, and big projects at that - big stacks, lots of moving parts.

Whereas GNOME tries to be more uniform, Plasma tries to be more bespoke.

I don't care which one you use, really. I just love GNOME design principles and it's desktop paradigm.

Is GNOME a perfect project? No. But when these troglodytes crawl out of their discord servers, I just can't help but be infuriated by their pure malice and ignorance.

So fuck em. I'm done with this thread.

You have a nice day now, y'hear?

"16 years of paving the way for Plasma".

There, fixed that for you.
