Advocate for freedom and tolerance even if you say things I do not like

Adversary of Fediblock

Accept that I'll probably say something you don't like and I'll give you the same benefit, and maybe we can find some truth about the world.

Ah... Is the Alliteration clever or stupid? Don't answer that, I sort of know the answer already...

Proto man and the main theme are too good for a nes.

THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A JOKE, NOT CANADIAN HEALTHCARE'S MANDATE!

"they love games but hate the people who make them!"

Bad news chief, they don't love all games, just good ones. That's why there's so many layoffs, because nobody loves the crap games sbi et al put out!

Heads up that you might see a lot more issues than you expect. I know I ended up reinstalling Lemmy on a machine and the outcome was so broken I gave up on Lemmy -- No other servers accepted outgoing federation from me, but I was constantly getting hammered with incoming federation.

An ad for an ad for billboards?

Last I checked, I don't live in Europe, Africa, or Asia. They can protect their own damn undersea cables.

I can't help but think Houthis or Russians, but really it could be that too.

Looks like several underwater cables were damaged.

Like, half of Africa is kicked off the internet right now.

I'm kinda torn on tiktok. On one hand, the government shouldn't have the power to ban websites at all.

On the other hand, tiktok isn't a private website, it's a glowie op....

But I'd like to ban *all* glowie ops, not just Chinese ones.

Or "Big Data" about 10 years ago.

One thing I find amazing is that people seem to be completely disconnected from reality. They seem to think everyone on earth died, but that didn't happen.

The propaganda says it's raining out, but the sun is shining. But some people are so badly traumatized they keep yelling at us that we're gonna get wet if we take one step outside.

Our government is evil, and those who support it are evil, whether they realize it or not.

How ironic, most Americans are calling on the United Nations to eat a dick.

GPT chatbot not starting a post with "Ah," challenge

Difficulty level: Ah, Nightmare

Perfect redditor question where you can just ask your son or husband, but no we should ask a bunch of random strangers on the Internet.

But for the record, goddamn right I loved sticks when I was a kid. I'm a goddamn homonid.

The master and his emissary by Iain McGilchrist is a good work discussing the disconnect between the two ways of thinking in the human mind.

You can't unsee it in the end, that intuitive truth can be different than the autistic tabulation and verification of data. The latter is important, but the human brain doesn't thrive on it.

And one isn't more intellectual than the other, even though the one might seem that way.

One way the enlightenment project arguably failed is that it was so focused on what you could mathematically prove that that it refuses to countenance any truth that couldn't be enumerated that way.

You gotta drain the swamp by firing every bureaucrat on day 1. Then replace them with nothing. Then eliminate the income tax. Everyone will be paying their fair share of 0

Lol "your sacrifices to moloch make me proud. Let us sacrifice our entire future for power and success today!" He said before finishing a delicious stem cell tequila mix drink
