I get a kick out of seeing people who think one user on an instance being a jerk means the whole instance is bad.
Usually the same sort of people who would claim to oppose generalizing entire groups of people.
I checked the TOS, I'm still not your dad, block jerks if you need to and move on with your life.

It was fine after openshell to fix the start menu, rufus to get the installer to chill out, o&o shutup10 to lay off the spying, and 10 decrapifier to cut down on the apps I don't need.

I'm old enough that I want to be proven wrong because trying to prove yourself right against the entire internet is futile no matter how many years you mash yourself up against the internet.
The problem is when people can't prove me wrong on certain things, that's where I have to assume I'm right.

One thing I'm big into that I don't talk that much about is old games. There's a project called The Force Engine which plays Dark Forces with modern controls and visuals. I just finished playing the first 4 levels of dark forces and it's been really enjoyable!

It would be like one of those sphincter doors but made entirely out of stainless steel.
Man, if I could customize that mine would be totally sick. It'd have all kinds of cool mods. People would come from all around to see my butthole.
Why are you stealing chemicals from Norfolk Southern? You gonna pay them for their loss?
You're welcome. :P

I've got a cron job which auto-updates the back-end and front-end weekly. Now I'm just trying to figure out why the translation isn't working, feel like I'm 99% of the way there.
FBXL Social is running soapbox, which by default shows a twitter like feed, but can show context by clicking on the "expand this post" button.
Friendica defaults to showing threads first which is a bit nicer, but overall the soapbox experience worked better for me.

It seems to me that a lot of people assume we'll all be ok because we're westerners.
That age is basically over. The rest of the world is catching up to the west in every positive metric. We need to be focusing on the fundamentals. In schools, the 3 Rs and job/career skills. In the home, useful morality and principles that will help lead to life success.
Depending on the area, between 50-100% of kids can't pass a standardized math test, yet people are busy trying to turn schools into a place to indoctrinate kids into one ideology or another. We can't afford to waste resources on this crap. We need kids who are bright enough to compete on a global stage.

tbh that cope is dangerous for this exact reason. "Oh, I'm generally nice and unpopular, I'll be so successful!" -- does nothing to be successful -- "Why am I still generally nice and unpopular and unsuccessful?!"
You could fool me the way people are falling over themselves to defend pharmaceutical companies and big tech companies.
