Totally on board with the message, but, isn’t this, like, a direct violation of rule 2? Or are we going with the Gamer™ definition of “politics” where any stance that the community agrees with is inherently non-political?

This is just the standard mac os experience to be honest

It’s far more racist to assume only minorities work for Door Dash

Yeah agreed. Racial profiling is still racial profiling, using euphemisms like “lower class” and “minority” instead of the usual slurs doesn’t make it okay.

The original headline is “‘No Way to Prevent This’ says only country where this regularly happens”. If you look closely at OP’s meme, you can actually see the font changes after the “only” (baseline is slightly lower; uses lighter color; kerning of eve in “Prevent” is completely different )

But yeah shit take anyway, just because the US is famous for shootings doesn’t mean that it’s any more dangerous than other country

I personally pronounce it with a hard G even when talking about the mythical creature because that’s how it’s pronounced in most other languages that have a similar word. Anglos can go fuck themselves with their needlessly complicated phonetics.

It depends on the phase. Sometimes you get constructive interference and they add up instead.

I personally like to listen to both sides of the story so that I can absorb 2x the disinformation

Sounds like a very elegant way to fuck over screenreader users

The silicone type of lint roller would probably feel like an unusually firm silicone dildo and the sticky tape type would probably feel slippery like postage stamp and taste with that sickly sweet chemical adhesive taste

IDK what you mean by “domain host” but the thing about cloudflare ('s most prominent service) is that it’s essentially a voluntary MITM between you and your clients. They see ALL traffic going between your server and your clients. This is not normal. Normally traffic between server and client is encrypted with HTTPS. By using cloudflare’s proxy your are adding a backdoor to that encryption. Your registrar cannot normally see this traffic. Your certificate authority cannot normally see this traffic without issuing a malicious cert. But cloudflare can. And, if they wanted to, they could even inject malware to deanonymize users, spy on journalists, steal data, etc. As a matter of fact, they already do, but instead of calling it “malware” they call it “analytics”, so it’s okay 👍

Cloudflare is harmful. Sure, maybe they’re doing a Good Thing™ today, but who stops them from turning around and selling all of the data they proxy to AI companies tomorrow? There is rarely a good reason to use cloudflare. If you care about blocking bots, there are self-hostable tools like Anubis. If you care about hiding your server’s IP, you can use a VPN that allows port forwarding or rent a VPS. Do not use cloudflare. Cloudflare should not be used. By using cloudflare, you surrender your digital sovereignty for a mirage of convenience and safety.

(Yes, I understand the irony of posting this from a instance that uses cloudflare)

Yes indeed. It seems so far that the best defence is to join utterly unhinged communities and participate in degeneracy so severe that no publicly traded company would want to scrape you. Something something become ungovernable.

which I sometimes need because sometimes I do feel real bad

I kinda get what you mean. Sense of belonging and communication with people who understand you is important, never sacrifice your community in favor of some ideological quirk! Sure, there are good reasons to avoid reddit and discord, but they’re not good enough to cut yourself loose from people who make you feel like you belong!!

I have fairphone, it comes with unlockable bootloader. Don’t get the new ones tho, they suck. 3+ was the last good model before they drank the koolaid and removed the headphone jack.

I’m an /e/os user and all I can say is even though it sucks the least among its competition, it STILL SUCKS! Not to downplay the immense effort put in by the devs and maintainers of course. Providing a privacy-respecting phone OS to ordinary people isn’t just a good deed, it’s necessary for a vibrant and diverse digital society. But still, we can all strive for better.

Unpopular opinion but games with community-driven multiplier (i.e. people hosting their own servers) is infinitely better than matchmaking multiplayer running on the dev/publisher’s servers if only for the sole reason that players have a choice of what kinds of communities they want to build and what things other players should be allowed to do instead of being forced into a sterilized commercial monoculture. I should be able to say “KYS KYS” in game if the people I’m playing with are okay with it.

yeah honestly I don’t really care much for AI art and I think the vast majority of it looks kind of creepy in the uncanny valley sense but at least I have the self-awareness to recognize that it is a personal preference. These anti-ai bros seem to have no distinction between “I don’t like <thing>” and “<thing> is unethical” on top of being just generally insufferable pricks so I try to avoid them as much as possible.

Art is art, it doesn’t matter what tool or medium was used, what matters is it reflects the artists intention or vision.

Based. Nothing triggers redditors and chuds alike than recognizing the value in all art.

based thailand has toy guns that actually look like guns. None of that rainbow vomit laser blaster nonsense.

EDIT lmao at the 7 downvotes. Seethe more.
