Makes me think that platforms banning Trump after Jan 6 were just kissing up to Biden coming in. Maybe there is just a cycle of capitalist sucking up.

You’re right, but also have been proven wrong. This is politics, and apparently the most effective version at that is lying and saying things that more people than we would think believe… and vote for.

+1.

I wish we had type c but all cables were labeled with clear functionality from the start. I don’t like data/power only cables.

If you have bags, you could cut one open, pop in an infuser (or reusable metal ball thing) and roll on.

Lots of people mention loose leaf tea but for people who barely know the difference between types of tea, it doesn’t seem to come out cheaper than cheapo bags.

I guess I’m a price guy over flavor lol

I’m guessing this is a cost thing. You don’t need to pay for fact checking anymore.

… still obnoxious and pushing us towards a dead echo chamber internet. Get ready for AI personalities voting on community notes.

This is probably a minority opinion, but I think OSS prospers most when there is corporate muscle behind it.

A company with paid engineers that puts engineering time into fixing and bettering open source software can possibly be a good company.

Closed source ends up being the worst of all worlds. If there is an issue, you’re stuck waiting for someone else to possibly fix it. At least in open source, either you can try to fix it, or you can pay someone else to try to fix it.

At the end of the day, I think a lot of the Linux success actually comes down to this.

Could just cut military spending and waste

Honestly good on them for keeping the spirit alive for just about everyone who isn’t a direct competitor of theirs.

Let them make some money to continue to fund it. They even invalidated all sponsorships because of the license change.

Unless you personally were willing to fund whatever they make on their integration, then this is an ok play in my book.

I’ve always wanted to meet that 1 out of the 10 who don’t. Probably would be interesting to have a beer with.

Corporate executives love using the word pause to allow the possibility for a resume. It also makes it not a failure since it never finishes negatively: it is paused.

It’s word gymnastics.

I still hope as part of the antitrust ruling, they rip chrome from Google and undo this crap.

I’ve had good luck with uBlock Lite.

(Yes I could swap browsers but nah).

Something something healthcare is a right elsewhere too something something

We can and should do better.

Still my favorite of the 2020 press conferences.

In front of a landscaping business. Next to a strip club and bar.

There’s another free video editor called shotcut. Give it a try, works great.

Try some of their sour pickles while there too.

There is this face that Vance makes while Walz is talking where he looks at the camera and sort of rolls his eyes.

Idk why but it’s kind of funny to me

Yeah that was rough. I wish he just answered the question the first time.

Great point from Walz on trusting experts.
