I like coffee, Philly, Pittsburgh, Arabic language, anything on two wheels, music, linux, theology, cats, computers, pacifism, art, unity, equity, etymology, the power of words, and getting high off airplane glue. Will use Adobe Illustrator for food.

He had blood on his ear, too


As opposed to Israel which considered Palestinians just Arab colonizers and them just the righteous people who is going back to their land so they want them either expulsed to Egypt and other countries or kill them
??? This is literally the official position of the Russian Federation — they consider Ukrainians colonizers who unjustly rebelled and stole Russian land, assets, and production. Putin does not want to assimilate Ukrainians; the intention is total extermination and replacement with ethnic Russians, and always has been.
I am not here to debate which genocide is worse, because plainly, Palestinians are suffering yawning abuses that would make even Mussolini blush. I am just saying that Palestine is not the only active genocide happening in the world right now. Ukraine can fight back; Palestine cannot. That is plainly on a different level. There’s no need to imply I am an idiot just because I pay attention to other stuff happening in parts of the world that don’t report in English.


Palestine is the only place where there is a war of extemination right now
Listen, I am about as active as any non-Israeli or non-Palestinian can be in anti-genocide discourse, but you’re smoking crack if you think that Russia’s intentions for Ukraine are to simply absorb their government and people. Russians by and by large do not believe Ukrainian culture is a thing, and in fact, have been breaking chunks off from their culture and absorbing it as their own since Moscow was founded by a couple of guys who got lost in the woods.
Russia’s goal is absolute cultural annihilation, and their actions have fit the standard definition of genocide since 2022.


I have long been of the opinion that if you read newspaper headlines like a WWF announcer, it really is indiscernible.
PRO-PALESTINE ACTORS ABSOLUTELY SLAM APARTHEID CLYDE, TAKING A SIXTY FOOT PLUNGE OFF OF HELL IN A CELL AND DIRECTLY ONTO AN ANNOUNCERS’ TABLE!!! BAWGAWD, THAT’S TRUMP’S THEME MUSIC


It’s a real dumb idea but I’ll be honest, I think all of us should have expected that when Chrome switched to an engine that doesn’t allow for ad blockers.
I’m with the rest of the commenters on other threads — I’ll just switch to PostmarketOS and make Linux work for me. Very little of what I do on a phone really requires “apps.”


“The longer you live, the younger you become” — this bitch has clearly never heard of human leukocyte antigens.


Ah, good thing those are cheap materials, then!


Neato. Always cool to see a new approach. Synapse/Matrix is excellent, but, running a federated Matrix server is an exercise in frustration. So many version forks, so many hard crashes. :(


I am not sure cryptocurrency even has a practical use outside of money laundering. I guess it’s a casino, too.


I am a professional designer with two decades of experience and I gotta admit, you’re smoking crack if you think GIMP (the project that is almost entirely held back by its stupid name) is superior to Photoshop.
It might be able to get the job done for small tasks, but it is not a serious tool for serious people. I’m sorry. I’m as pro-FLOSS as anyone can get, and even I recognize that right now there’s just no competition in the design department. Affinity is Mac-only, and comes with its own problematic aspects.


Driving is honestly very stimulating for me. I have AuDHD and it is one of the few times I feel calm because I can actively engage all of my senses. Something about keeping an awareness in your head of what’s around you and your car really keeps me occupied.


Makes sense when even adults use phones as a means to escape even a moment of boredom. How many adults use their phones while driving? That’s one of the most mentally stimulating things I can think of, and people get BORED.


If it turns out anything like Reddit’s attempt, the false-positive rate is going to be astronomical.


I think it’s pretty obvious at this point that Russia is pouring the entire future of its nation-state into keeping Eastern Ukraine and Crimea, so, I think it’s probably inevitable at this point given how little international support Ukraine has by now.
Why wouldn’t you need troops to stand at that border and make sure that Russia can’t just regroup and invade again in 6 years? Wouldn’t you call that ‘Peacekeeping’?


I guess, but you will lead a lonely life if you can’t find common struggle with people in different scenarios than our own. We can easily lose our soul with these endless purity tests — for some reason, Leftists, progressives, and liberals seem to be constantly on the lookout for the next Jesus Christ, who will just simply energize voters by consequence of, I dunno, magic or some shit.
Neil Young is still a working musician who needs to get his face and music in front of as wide and as general of an audience as possible — why wouldn’t they be where people are? That’s what makes this stand so important. Homie needs Facebook and Insta and still said no.


Well, it’s not like Ted Nugent is writing any new music. He probably doesn’t have anything better to do anyway.


Fiber optic cable is just glass or nylon, sealed with a thermoplastic. It really is one of the cheapest kinds of cables to make, maybe ever. It’s really not worth anything when anyone who needs to run fiber can just buy a brand new spool for the same price as a spool from four guys in a shitty pickup truck who can’t describe why they even had it to begin with.
Shooting pistols while high on Oxycontin is in the Constitution!
