I am shocked, shocked, I say!

This.

For some bizarre reason, Americans are defined via international treaty as “not refugees”. Nothing the US government does to its citizens is allowed to be considered inhumane, oppressive, or persecution.

The Internet is populated by people who think English grammar is cosmic law, so it doesn’t surprise me that they think you should bend over for dogshit urban planning.

Ironically, none of them follow the rule of shutting up if they don’t know shit about shit.

Green spaces: Just for viewing.

What kind of dystopian hellscape do you want the world to be, exactly?

Sure. Neoliberalism won. Anyone not a part of the privaate equity class lost.

As someone who isn’t part of the private equity class, I ain’t fucking celebrating.

Man, that’s a pretty big management team for something that’s just a bluesky front end.

Except on election day. Where where these people when they could have stopped him?

This. The DTS was not a tax on American or foreign digital services, but all of them. Home grown digital services companies were certainly lobbying to get this killed, too.

Sure, but that’s not what’s being discussed. Sanders is saying people deserve a 4 day work week at full pay.

Hulkamania running wild on capital markets

What investment? We’ve pumped millions of dollars into these companies to get them to expand their networks to rural communities, and they’ve just shoved it up their ass like a cash enema. They’re definitely not spending their own money on improving services.

The only systems they’re incentivized to improve are the ones that funnel our cash into their pockets.

“What would you rather people who struggle to stack water cases be doing to earn a living? Flying planes? Heart surgery?”

It’s not that hard to throw up a website that allows user uploads. The community can replace iN in a heartbeat. They bought into their brand as the important thing, and not the contributors, and now they’re probably going to slowly waste away.

Speaks more to what I’m seeing in Halifax, too. We’ve been flooded with Teslas in the last couple of years, and it’s not beat up Civics they’re replacing.

“It’s computers, so it doesn’t count for some reason”

Ignoring the world definitely makes you good global citizens and not problems to work around. Good job. Way to go.

NodeBB. It’s a fairly popular webforum, but ActivityPub support is fairly new. It’s really something else to see the Fediverse through a the lens of the old Internet.

As someone with 9th grade Canadian core French from 25 years ago, this has not been my experience of the French at all. Not in France, nor in Quebec. What are y’all doing to their language??!?
