hear hear, it’s not team sports, it’s everyone’s fucking life, we all share this place and this time

Right wing crunchy fash

🤣 🤣 I needed this today, thank you

Also curious, have a similar project in mind. I’ve tinkered with jekyll a little and heard good things about Hugo. Hopefully people can speak to some of these.

🤡

This made me lol today, thank you

Yet they did it anyway, my point is about the power of our intrinsic motivation to create, not our obvious need for food and shelter etc…

Did you not notice that almost the entire realm of technology runs on open source software largely written by volunteers? Yes your laptop may run a proprietary piece of software but not the servers it talks to, your phone, your apps, the cash register at the store, the computer chip in your kids toys etc…

tens of thousands ffs, it was the largest rally in Denver since Obama

I think this is good news which seems hard to believe right now. I’m sure someone will find a way to make this terrible but on it’s face we are watching an important anti-trust ruling take place. Google’s monopoly on the browser is dangerous and unhealthy. Taking it away from them is absolutely the right thing to do. Who inherits the power over the single browser used by most of the world remains to be seen though.

Can’t exactly throw eggs at a spacex rocket or neuralink down the street now can I.

I understand feeling frustrated about Kash Patel’s actions, but this kind of ethnic stereotyping isn’t the way to express it. The “Patels should stick to corner stores” comment reinforces harmful stereotypes about an entire community of people.

People with the surname Patel are doctors, engineers, artists, teachers—contributing to society in countless ways. When we reduce any group to a stereotype, even in casual comments, we lose sight of their humanity and individuality.

We can criticize someone’s actions without bringing their ethnicity into it. I’m sure you didn’t mean harm, but these small moments are where we can all help build a more thoughtful community.

Wait, where’s the stereotypical chad Lemmy mod?

never thought I’d see the day…

this is just starting to be mean

this really needs more circulation because too goddamn many people still believe his PR

This is an underrated story I think. Elon Musk literally purchased the opportunity to fire the person primarily responsible for regulating Space X which is intimately tied to his other business Starlink. This is exactly why billionaires are dangerous, why allowing unlimited political spending by private parties is dangerous, and showcases the utterly broken state of our current regulation arm. Fuck Fascist Elon Musk and all the people who enabled him to do this.

We’ve had Menendez, now can we have Gaetz?

I guess we did get a Santos, remember this fucker https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2024/08/19/george-santos-guilty/74857375007/

Thank you for posting the wiki article, and regardless of how hypocritical this specific headline actually is, fuck Clarence Thomas for all the other reasons too. https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/press/releases/durbin-reveals-omissions-of-gifted-private-travel-to-justice-clarence-thomas-from-harlan-crow
