Yeah, an AP picture was posted to twitter and then the photographer was banned lol.

I am a vegan and applaud your moral consistency. News articles like this are full of fake outrage by people who support the animal ag industry that commits worse crimes at massively larger scales every single day. In regards to animal welfare this guy and the puppy killer are only very marginally worse than anyone else.

edit: obligatory downvotes by people who want to be mad at animal abuse while supporting animal abuse.

I’ve never been an incel but I’ve always sympathised because I feel like I easily could have become one. Seeing a therapist and learning the basics of Cognitive Bias Therapy is what I attribute to helping me out of a lot of those ‘thought loops’.

It’s nice hearing stories about people who’ve escaped it.

Power users probably just use hotkeys and type, Gnome is attractive and stays out of your way. That said - I like Plasma, too. That’s the fun of Linux, it’s so customisable to each person’s needs.

I am glad this went in this direction. I kinda like a lot of the new slang, and am also chill with being an old loser using them incorrectly, it’s part of the evolution of language and I’m glad to play my part.

ok

I’m allowed to be concerned about you. We’re all internet strangers, and your way of talking to people is obviously rubbing people the wrong way.

Why are you like this? Try and put your thoughts into a coherent point instead of just asking a bunch of inane questions.

Is your point that you think ‘enthusiasm’ is a made up metric? Ok, cool, great job, you cracked politics.

I’ve been using it for a while and agree. At least I know how they’re making money off of me.

The comments are funny but if you read the article he just did it for the bit. Apparently he changed quite a bit over that time and regretted being an angry forum nerd, so he thought it would be funny to do one last post and abandon the account.

The funniest part of this is that it didn’t have the one song I expected: https://youtu.be/ZvSgLHWR16o?si=_bKjOUbXmsuLZi0w

😔💦🦅🥰🥳

I forgot that only people you have agreements with can sue you. This is why Boeing hasn’t been sued once recently for their own criminal negligence.

They can have all the clauses they like but pulling something like this off requires a certain amount of gross negligence that they can almost certainly be held liable for.

My company used to use something else but after getting hacked switched to crowdstrike and now this. Hilarious clownery going on. Fingers crossed I’ll be working from home for a few days before anything is fixed.

Yeah this threw me as well. The US is so religious I hardly think this would be controversial.

Neigh. The picture is only showing from the (human) wrist down. Horse legs and most (all?) mammal quadruped legs actually pretty closely resemble each other.

This is where I’m trying to get to. Any new software I try to make sure is foss and linux where possible. It’s just a bit of a pain with music because there’s a lot of tools I’ve bought over the years and would like to continue using.

Yes, I’ve been trying hard to squeeze some linux into my life, currently trying to turn an old laptop into a little music machine for jamming with on me midi keyboard. I’ve run across quite a few issues just trying to get specific software working. I did cave at one point and try to use windows 10 but their installation media tool would fail every time I tried and the hardware is too old for windows 11 lol. It also triggered my gag reflex just thinking of all the ads it would feed me and all the bullshit I’d have to disable to make it respect my privacy. A number of different distros just worked flawlessly, though, and if all I needed to do was simple computer things and web I’d be laughing.

Yeah, there’s still some other little things, but it’s surprising just how good the out of the box experience is, especially considering how little support the project has had from hardware and software vendors.
