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

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...

I saw a bunch of people pretty frustrated that Trump didn't do a better job, but public opinion is like turning a cruise ship, we won't know for sure for a bit what the outcome actually was since there's a delay between the event and the action.

I'll have to wait and see how things pan out, but I still think that any time Kamala gets a chance to talk her approval rating goes down. People like the marketing materials put together by slick advertisers, but the actual product was like a presidential candidate you bought on wish.

I mean, ngl Trump is also kinda a presidential candidate you bought on wish too, but it's already at your house and everyone knows it kind of works ok. This other one keeps saying opposite things in the copy. "Ok, it says it charges with usb c and apple lightning. Which one is it?"

Even better.

I want a dope station wagon.

MusicBrainz Picard ended up being a really useful tool for me today. It's open source but does rely on the proprietary MusicBrainz service, but it let me go through all my music and give it proper tagging from a database, even the stuff I ripped from a tape recorded vinyl record 20 years ago. Then I was able to take the properly tagged music and use the tags to name the files and put them into proper directories.

One of the reasons Kamala Harris is unelectable is "They're not gonna stop... and they should not" and raising funds for rioters. The Republicans are just proving how inept they are to not be hammering on that every hour of every day.

Ah, I see what you mean now.

Of course it does. That's the only reason to have immunity. There's no need for legal immunity from something that isn't illegal.

Now, if you're talking about more limited qualified immunity lower officials have, that's a different question.

Why do communists always try to destroy food production?

And it's also true that the same sovereign immunity that protects Trump protects the head of the DHS. The government won't do anything to the people who did bad in office.

I feel like if Trump really is Adolf Hitler incarnate like they say, then surely is popularity among Americans must be dropping like a rock!

Unless.... Is there something they're not telling us?

"make University students brownbag again"

In the left seems to be very proud of their endorsements by monsters.

"saving democracy means destroying anyone who won't vote like me" ok adolf

"Here's Doom 1, except it looks worse than the original and takes more GPU power than existed 10 years ago"

Business dell laptops are crazy, especially once you put linux on them.

They never die!

Technology improves, but it doesn't always improve in ways you expect. Steve Balmer discounted the iPhone for business because it didn't have a keyboard, for example. The articles proclaiming that the metaverse was going to take over the world and plots of virtual land were going to be a multi-billion dollar industry have turned out to be as absurd as they looked at the time but there's a little cottage industry of VR uses. A lot of catchphrase technologies didn't end up the way people thought, such as big data, and in practice they had hard limitations that limited their applicability.

It was a surprisingly long time ago now that cloud gaming was going to be the next big thing, but it basically collapsed too.

I spoke to my toddler about this and he said: "Father, what have these parents been teaching their children to induce such histrionics? It seems to me that one of the duties of a parent is to provide an environment in which a child can learn and grow without the insecurities of the adult world for a time, and for a child to say and do something so horrific suggests they are failing at that duty."

lol kids say the darndest things!

Just imagine if they discovered jellyfin.
