Posts complaining about “politics” and “propaganda” are invariably made by people who want to see those things, just the kind aligned with their politics.

I disagree, IMO a lot of it is just low effort trash spammed across multiple communities, multiplying how annoying it is. It’s not that I disagree with the idea, I just think “elites bad, updoots to the left” is mind numbingly lazy.

topkek, even

I don’t know how it came about

iirc the facility that we see housing the evil iron man ripoff suits was a SpaceX facility irl

but that’s not how it is

Doesn’t mean it can’t be that way, though, One way nationalization also exists.

Yes, it is rather backwards for a handful of companies to own entire blocks of IP addresses just because. The infrastructure was massively funded by public dollars, it should be publicly owned.

I don’t know what this is a question to.

Not opposed to that, but I’m more concerned with being able to get one at low cost, would need at least .net to kinda expand the pool.

How do we make domains more democratic? It seems so backwards that massive corporations and groups of massive corporations are the only bodies that get to decide things like this that aren’t literally states.

Wow, you’ve gotten worse.

rather the nebulous blob of feminity that is a whole range of lived identities and expressions of gender coming together to say fuck off to a fascist is the thing I was trying to call sexy

yeah dude that doesn’t sound any less weird

Bitcoin isn’t that.

Pop pop!

Yeah, I kinda wish Walz was the candidate instead, based on his progressivism and integrity.

On twitter.com presumably

Sure, and there are some performance gains to be made from it I’m sure, but when my OS is doing that and my web browser is doing that and my browser based chat client and my browser based text editor are all doing that, it gets pretty sluggish.

This is why Linux is a godsend for older machines, even running the exact same applications (Firefox, Discord, and vscode) on the exact same hardware, it still feels more responsive on Linux because there is less overhead from the OS itself.

4GB is what Windows idles at for me, after everything has loaded.

You present a false dichotomy. Yes, things like uncompressed audio and HD video take up more storage space, but that does not negate that modern commercial software is very inefficient with how it uses resources. You could improve the efficiency of the system while keeping HD video, it is not a mutually exclusive choice.

For example, booting up Windows and doing nothing takes up 4gb of RAM, while doing the same with a lean Linux installation would take up a quarter of that, despite both operating systems having identical functionality (run web browser, open applications, edit documents, play games, etc).

Yet people are entitled to not be prejudiced against for their immutable qualities.

We can have the government do something and have people raise their kids, it’s not either/or.
