One important take-away from the process: you can't really use nano to edit those css files, but vi works great. you can use /[search term] to search, then n to find the next thing to find. That was perfect for finding max-width:600; and erasing it from css files to stop limiting the size of the page, and width:265; and erasing that from the css files to stop the sidebars from trying to autosize in ways that won't work.
I got my soapbox-fe instance looking the way I want it to!
So the trick with soapbox-fe is that the .css files are gzipped. So you just go the folder and do a gunzip * to extract them all, then make your changes, then do a gzip * to return it to gzip format.
The changes I wanted:
1. I don't want a dark theme, I want a black theme. How much more black can this theme be? None. None more black.
2. I paid for a whole screen, I want to use a whole screen. I don't know why people like these website designs that don't use a third of a widescreen monitor's space, but I don't.

@yourgamesucks to be honest, I can see why a lot of people wouldn't like FTL. It *is* a bit of a slot machine in that you can win solely because you got the right roll, and you can lose solely because you got the right roll. Not everyone likes the rogue formula.
@wjmaggos @TSheets they aren't even trying to hide it now. Fauci is my favorite example. "Masks don't work!" 6 months later: "obviously masks work, I just lied because we needed those masks!"
They don't even care anymore. They'll admit to the lie as soon as they get what they want because they think we're all too stupid to notice or care.

@wjmaggos @TSheets in the past decade I've had to change my worldview realizing how often I'm lied to.
The fact that the lies are becoming more brazen is the reason nobody trusts "the greater good" or the msm. The fact that they can destroy their positions of privilege and some rando can become more trusted isn't an attack on the masses, it's an attack on the elites who have treated the masses like they'll believe any lie for too long.

@wjmaggos @TSheets these vaccines are brand new. The underlying tech being possible but failing to result in a vaccine until now isn't a positive. The vaccines themselves must be new because novel Coronavirus wasn't even necessarily known until 2019. We don't just have drug laws to be dicks, we have them because we remember the things that can happen.
Asbestos! The safe new material of the future!

@eff Why should we trust a nation as corrupt as the USA to be the one to stop companies from playing "repression's little helper"?
For all we know, they'd abuse that power for purely political purposes, just like they have been all their powers lately.

We must harm others because they refuse to inject themselves with a substance.
Said substance didn't exist a year ago. It takes 9 months to make a baby -- you can't speed it up no matter how many women or how much money you have -- and it takes long term testing to prove a vaccine is safe in the long term.
It's ok, liberals love DDT and thalidomide. Safe. Just look at these advertisements talking about how safe they are!

The amazing about socialism is that they don't do any of the things they claim they'd do if only capitalism ended. They just get fat on the people.

I keep seeing people claiming to be Canadians saying they've never heard of Residential schools and how outraged they are.
If you are Canadian and have never heard of Residential schools, then you must not be a very good Canadian. The history is bloody inescapable. It's all you read about in the news, it's all you see on TV. What, are you just entirely immersed in trying to impress California such that you've entirely ignored the place you live your entire life?
If you are Canadian and you've never heard of Residential schools, don't speak up -- shut up and put your head down and learn something about your damn country. That's pathetic and embarrassing, not something to be proudly proclaiming. You're so ignorant that you don't know about one of the most widely known things about Canada on the planet, and something that has dominated the discourse for decades, that speaks to your deficiencies as a Canadian.
If you are Canadian and you've never heard of Residential schools, you must be in a nice little racially exclusive bubble. You've obviously never met a native in your life, because it's something that isn't a secret when you're around them. Maybe you shouldn't be speaking for a group you known nothing about and clearly have no exposure to. Go visit some reserves for a long period of time, read some newspapers, read some history books. Then come back to me about how outraged you are, once you're not just a fake wannabe Californian who doesn't know current events, history, or the people of the land you claim to love.

@TearGasBreakfast if you run a television station aren’t you forced to host a bunch of stuff whether you want to or not?
@jeffcliff @Samhydeigger At some point they need to figure out that they've had the biggest government on their side this whole time, maybe more government isn't the answer. Maybe the answer is some freedom from government for a change?
I mean, Mr. sunny ways himself can't even build a few bloody water treatment plants.

@Madcucks @genetic_failure @ryan Somebody needs to tell these kids that the world doesn't run on sunshine and rainbows.
I said a year ago that these riots only serve to destroy black communities, but the concept never came to these infants. They think you can just burn down a black community and it magically gets upgraded like a cheat code in a video game

@zerohedge seems like a stupid time to do an ipo for something that’s shut down due to COVID. Maybe they were hoping to attract the retarded bubble money before the bubble pops?
@Zennblack there’s no good guys, only losers and worse losers, and the mere losers will disappoint eventually. Anyone who thinks differently hasn’t watched politics long enough.
@guttersessions I have a test where I press Ctrl-f and type the n bomb. It’s a health check on the freedom in the fediverse. Today the fediverse is free and healthy!
