“Homelessness is a direct political choice.”
Talk about a quote that can be read both ways.
Some middle-aged guy on the Internet. Seen a lot of it, occasionally regurgitates it, trying to be amusing and informative.
Lurked Digg until v4. Commented on Reddit (same username) until it went full Musk.
Is on kbin.social but created this profile on kbin.run during a week-long outage.

“Homelessness is a direct political choice.”
Talk about a quote that can be read both ways.
It’s complex I guess. There’s a stereotype that doing a good deed in China usually ends up backfiring on the doer of the deed.
Here she died and was praised, but then, the backfire had already taken effect.
We could conclude from this that the only correct way for a Chinese citizen to do a good deed is to die in the process.
Then note that the praise could be not for doing the deed but for saving whatever other forces are at play from having to provide the backfire.
The hard part is determining the shades of truth of all the various aspects here.
You’ll forgive me if I ever-so-briefly misread your boilerplate link as “And then I woke up.”
Unsure if sarcasm
Ah, an excuse to attack an organisation that worships something other than Mighty Xi and the CCP.
Using children as the pawns too. Masterful.
anaemic* (Sorry, that bothered me for some reason.)
As for capture groups, you’ll have to find another way. Perversely, perhaps BusyBox continues to be included on certain systems because they know that the extra space is required for the code that works around BB’s shortcomings. That sounds asinine until you realise that “solving the problem properly” most likely leads to that one XKCD comic about the proliferation of competing standards.
At worst, multiple sizes of BusyBox itself.
Sounds a bit like the S&M methodology. SpaceX & Musk
The real punishment ought to be an atomic wedgie. For everyone who was a C-level for more than a month at that company in the last 10 years.
This ought to be the punishment for a lot of unethical business practices. You can’t delegate that to a customer’s wallet.
If we tried this in the UK with someone like, say, the late David Coleman, I’m not entirely sure anyone who remembers him would be able to distinguish - other than, as I said, the knowledge that he’s been gone for quite some time now.
Coleman, was considered a go-to commentator for decades despite being gaffe-prone even at the best of times. He was occasionally oblivious and apparently lacking any self-awareness too. (He did kind of learn to laugh at himself though and was a good, well, sport, about it all.)
Sounds very AI to me. Come to think of it, he may even have been kept around precisely because of the entertainment value.
I assume that Al Michaels is not of this bizarre calibre and it wouldn’t take long for people to notice.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: There are better things to attack Trump for than how he looks, what physical conditions he has or how he smells.
At face value, those sorts of things have little effect on the ability to run a country well.
Even his hair is a better target because how he wears it would appear to show vanity, a quality that might actually interfere with stable management. That’s still a relatively big stretch without other evidence (of which there would appear to be plenty) though.
Attack his ideas, his intents, his politics. He makes this easy enough, right? Start there.
“LOL u smel” is something you expect in the playground. Something Trump himself might use, perhaps.
We have to be better than that.
For “academics” read “two guys we found in the cafeteria at a local university” unless otherwise specified.
If they’ve heard of Lemmy then it’s probably the Tankie connection that’s putting them off. If.
Guessing Kbin/Mbin is also either unheard of or tainted by association.
Or it could just be: “But why male models not Reddit?”
You joke, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s at the back of some people’s minds.
There’s also the whole association with Red Hat, and since Red Hat got bought, went corporate and murdered CentOS, Fedora is tainted somehow.
These things aren’t necessarily good reasons to not recommend Fedora, (for those see other comments) but they’re reasons nonetheless.
He won’t stop until every last potential Hamas member (read “Palestinian”) is dead or out of Palestine.
He’s been pretty clear on this.
So I decided to go peek at the ragecomic subreddit. Yes, the very one-time ragecomic home-from-home outside of 4chan. Last post 17 days ago, using at least two “extinct” faces, got 600 upvotes.
It’s complaining that there are no good tools to make ragecomics any more. (I have not checked to see if that’s true.)
Y’know, I feel like they should stay there. Anything that’ll mess up an AI should stay on that site for as long as humanly possible. smilingthumbsuprageface.jaypeg
Maybe not in any legal sense, no. How people and even news media use it, there’s plenty of wiggle room.
e.g. allowing the ambiguity of “British home owner” to go unclarified, that is as “home owner who is British” as opposed to “owner of a home in Britain”, and any similarly loose interpretations that go along with or derive from that.
Ah, stealth tracking in the guise of usefulness. Wonderful!
Of all the comments to argue against the use of a mysterious “they”, I think you’ve picked the wrong one.
It’s pretty clear who the “they” is here: Conservative politicians in the pocket of corporations who would stand to lose from cheaper, cleaner energy sources.
I’d go one step further and erase “Conservative”, because it doesn’t matter your other politics if you’re receiving bribes lobbying money from big business. It does at least seem to be skewed more towards politicians in Conservative parties though.
The way things are going, libraries themselves will be outlawed.
