A narrow majority, 54%, of Republicans surveyed said that Trump is focussed on the “right priorities”, while the president’s numbers with crucial independent voters are much weaker. Just 9% of independents said that the president is focussed on the right priorities – with 42% believing Trump is paying attention to the wrong issues.

So you’re telling me that these idiots voted for this guy and are now upset that he’s doing what he said he’d do and was obvious to everyone, including democrats, why this guy was unfit to serve?

Frankly, I have no sympathy for a republican with second thoughts now, after he’s deporting babies with cancer. You’ve slept with dogs, you have fleas, and we all hate your guts. The end.

Let’s put it this way, they’re not so unhappy with him that they’re the ones protesting him.

The term “unalive” is so cringey yet dystopian that I don’t know whether to feel embarrassed or concerned when I hear it.

What will happen is that politicians will see this as another reason to push for everyone having their ID associated with their Internet traffic.

You’re right. Which is exactly why companies should be exhibiting better behaviour and self regulate before they make the internet infinitely worse off for everyone.

It’s times like these where you’re reminded that Linus is awesome.

Probably. In all honestly, if you are a hexbear user, I’d be keeping a careful eye on who owns the domain when it magically pops back up.

If there are any germans out there reading this, it’s not to late to enact strong policy. America failed to do so and I fear the repercussions of not taking the threat seriously have only just begun.

I don’t actually see the fediverse as being any more extreme than any other corner of the internet.

Corporate internet doesn’t even filter out “uncomfortable” shit for people. They have a vested interest in keeping people engaged whether it’s through love or hate.

This is a misconception I see all the time. Reddit et al try their hardest to make browsing feel like a roller coaster to keep up engagement.

What type of storage are you buying that only costs you pennies?

Every time I went to buy amazon storage, I was always disappointed by the price. Glacier is the only affordable one, but Backblaze is probably better storage for personal use anyway.

Oh yes, I forgot about negative values.

Got his friends out of Jail, quid pro quo.

Whatever reason they don’t isn’t a very good one when there’s already excuses being made around AT proto not being scalable beyond a single app.

ActivityPub works today and we are using it right now. There’s basically no incentive to make a new protocol if you aren’t willing to support more than 1 platform that uses it.

I’m not even a bluesky hater, but you have to question why they’re choosing to reinvent the wheel other than disliking the lack of agency that comes with making a (essentially) proprietary protocol. You have to wonder if they ever truly plan to federated at all or if it’s all just lip-service.

Damn, too soon. Let’s at least give it another 2065 years!

Sure.

Valve’s operating system is read only and, when steam decides to update, any root level file changes will be lost between updates. This is partly good because the system will always be recoverable and update reliably, but comes with the downside that users have to take extra steps to install some base level packages (things like tailscale, syncthing etc. There’s always work arounds, but it’s not a guarantee that these work arounds will continue to work on new updates.)

OSTree is also a read only file system utility that allows packages to be layered, so users can install their own packages. When the operating system updates, these packages are rebased and preserved on the next update so user level changes can be preserved.

There’s more to this than that, but basically steam os is dependent on valve updating packages and generally leave all extensions either hand off or need to work around root filesystem. Ostree/silverblue/bazzite allow user modification by having a slightly more sophisticated updating process.

I would say it’s great but would strongly recommend using Bazzite over steam OS even on the deck.

My biggest gripe with the steam deck is that it’s not well equipped to handle user packages in the same way OSTree is. Bazzite solves this while still mostly adhering to the design principles of steam os, so I feel it’s actually better than the stock operating system.

To think that The Simpsons had Lisa sing his praises.

For real? I have never heard this before.

If true, it is simply more evidence in the court of “this show used to be funny, but it lost the plot x seasons ago”.

I mean, if you’re talking about fake ass twitter accounts and grifting, they did that in plain sight.

But these strategies should be well known by the democrats by now and they aren’t invulnerable to counteracting. It’s simply the case that less people showed up to vote this election than previous ones, I guess.
