FaeDrifter,

I hate when people respond to a post with a little anecdote that is completely irrelevant to the original post.

FaeDrifter,

Ignoring the fact they went from 4 to 8 clients.

You think the 3.2% is on the order of single digits of machines? You think 3.2% market share is 8 people?

Obviously you don’t. It’s 10s of thousands of machines and you exaggerated the actual situation so far it no longer made any sense.

FaeDrifter,

The US has never been a country that’s good or fair. It’s only very slowly gotten a little better through the sweat and blood of good people.

If we want it to get better it’s going to be a lot of difficult and painstaking work.

FaeDrifter,

Once you have distrobox set up with an arch container, you have access to the aur no matter what distro ypu’re running.

FaeDrifter,

Discovery also had hologram communication technology that I guess was also a secret? Starfleet went back to flatscreens for everything and didn’t use holograms again until the 24th century.

If it was just one thing, okay, but there were such numerous inconsistencies, it was like the writers and designers did not care about trek, they were writing a sci-fi show with the trek name slapped on top.

It’s totally possible to respect the heritage of old sci-fi - look at The Mandalorian and Andor - maintaining consistency with the old retro sci-fi aesthetic actually elevates them above what a modern redesign would have done.

Voidlinux

Nobody else can tell that the end product is any different, but you know you’re different and special and that’s what matters.

FaeDrifter,

French press is the only way I have to make coffee at home, and I make one every day.

It’s called humor, it’s not supposed to be taken literally.

FaeDrifter,

This is suuuper cool, but looks like having linux+amdgpu limits me to the cloud option.

I supposed this is bc we don’t have a DirectML equivalent yet.

FaeDrifter,

supporters of Israel and the US are both “tankies.” Glad we agree, good talk!

Based af, the tankies who support Chinese and Russian imperialism are equivalent to the tankies who support US and Israeli imperialism.

FaeDrifter,

No journalists on the ground found any indication of a mass casualty event on Tiananmen Square

ON Tiananmen Square. This is fascist-level wordplay. The same journalists found a massacre all around Tiananmen Square in the rest of Beijing.

no evidence that Chinese tanks actually killed anyone on 6/4

This is just a straight up lie. Lots of people were killed in Beijing. Just possibly not any within the tiny physical confines of Tiananmen Square itself.

Being trans is not a mental illness but let’s not encourage stigma around mental illness either.

Cis people with mental illness are valid

Trans people with mental illness are valid

Mentally healthy trans people are valid

Mentally healthy cis people are valid

FaeDrifter,

The luggage tag of the US

FaeDrifter,

Let me use an example. Let’s say you’re my partner, and it’s movie night. I give you a choice between two movies: Star Wars, and Harry Potter. However, if you choose Harry Potter for movie night, I will actually break both your hands with a sledgehammer.

I say I’m giving you a choice, but do you actually have a fair choice?

FaeDrifter,

Not even a caricature because getting your hands broken is actually still not as bad as starving to death.

FaeDrifter,

capitalist arguments that profit motive is necessary for innovation and technological advancement

I don’t know who is arguing this because it’s incredibly stupid. The greatest scientific minds of history, the mathematicians, the physicists, the inventors, were not capitalists, they’re people with passion for their work.

If we move to a society that guarantees basic human needs and good education, we’re only going to have more scientists and engineers that progress technology even faster.

FaeDrifter,

The fierce protection of LGBTQ communities is something I appreciate however.

It’s not really genuine though. They lightly elevate trump above all other presidents despite his history of attacking LGBTQ rights: lgbtqnation.com/…/trumps-record-lgbtq-rights-vile…

It’s just a political angle to get support from people who feel isolated away from other political movements.

FaeDrifter,

Identiy politics is so silly. It’s possible for a black person to support systemic racism, it’s possible for a Jewish person to support Nazi’s, it’s possible for LGBTQ people to support anti-LGBTQ politicians. Case in point - Jessica Watkins.

“I am x-identity” is lazy, superficial, irrelevant.

I don’t think anyone is lying about their identity. I do fully expect that the trans men and women of Hexbear would throw their LGBTQ brothers and sisters in front of a firing squad if it meant a chance at a bloody revolution over the bourgeois.

FaeDrifter,

You have support for Trump and Russia in there, which is an unholy alliance stripping LGBTQ protections in law, funding transphobic and Neo-Naxi groups, and spreading fascist rhetoric online.

FaeDrifter,

support for Trump" — The other day I sent you a huge thread where they all fucking hate Trump and agree he is an odious fascist.

Lol, not really. We can dig it up and look at the highest rated posts again. Hexbear wants to execute him along with the rest of the US presidents, which is obviously just a fantasy. “All presidents are bad, both sides are the same, Trump is at least funny and kind of authentic and triggers the libs” was the overwhelming sentiment.

Trump is a fascist but also an isolationist.

Lol, no, he’s not an isolationist. He’s a globalist business man, and a wanna-be dictator imperialist, who is happy to be friends and allies with the other dictator imperialists of the world.

(Biden) is more likely to start wars

What? According to who? Are you just going to pretend the assassination of Qasem Soleimani didn’t happen under Trump?

Biden is very pro-Ukraine, which drives the pro-Russia people insane. I don’t know what else you could be talking about.

There’s been virtually no pushback from the Biden administration against any of the fascist bullshit happening in this country.

Trump rolled back LGBTQ rights and stacked SCOTUS with people to roll back women’s and LGBTQ rights, DeSantis leads the war on Trans people. It does NOT help LGBTQ causes to blame this on Biden. It does not help to say “well both sides are bad”. Fascists LOVE the “enlightened centrists” because it almost always benefits fascism.

FaeDrifter,

I don’t think it makes sense to compare being gay to being racist.

FaeDrifter,

So you can simply refuse service in any business by refusing to speak to them.

FaeDrifter,

What you described was not the actual outcome of the ruling.

The wedding website designer did not give them a website with no mention of being gay, that they could fill in themselves. The website designer was allowed to fully refuse them any kind of website at all. Just like refusing a blank wedding cake because the couple is gay.

The justification of the decision was not in good faith. It stepped away over the bounds of protecting against compelled speech. And they deserve to feel the consequences.

FaeDrifter,

Someone else compared being gay to being racist, and now you’re comparing being gay to sexual assault.

These are disingenuous comparisons at best, dangerously homophobic at worst.

FaeDrifter,

A sensible and reasonable analogy would be interracial marriage.

Should racist wedding business owners be able to refuse serving interracial marriages, on the basis of they don’t believe in interracial marriage?
