Lets not forget Obama (in-part) paved the way for the shit we’re in now

I don’t use Google products anymore other than Maps (and only when I can’t find what I need using OSM or Magic Earth). I used DuckDuckGo which has gotten really bad.

I’m aware of SearX and self-hosting but it just seems like a giant pain to set up. I can do it (…and I probably will at some point) but I just get exhausted doing technology the hard way.

I’ve degoogled my phone, run linux on both laptop and desktop, set up a Pi-hole, and none of that stuff was intuitive or easy to set up and maintain.

I’m aware it’s a skill issue but like, I’m just tired man

Yes, I think so. Thank you

I don’t remember where I read this but I recall reading something about how having a certain amount of wealth/power is similar to having severe head trauma… I will see if I can locate it

Edit: boy that’s hard to search. All I’m getting is shit like “10 easy steps to rewire your brain for wealth!”

I can’t find it so take that with a grain of salt

Who likes any of them? Name me a state that isn’t dripping with blood. Name me a national leader who isn’t guilty.

Well sure, but knowing that doesn’t fix the problem

Its an absolute clown show from some of us inside the US too, but I’ve been saying “look at the clown!” ever since he entered politics and I don’t know man. People just keep telling me why they like the clown guy and his stupid red nose, and I’m just so tired. So tired and alone.

I’m guessing if they rewrite it things can only get worse

Yeah, maybe I’m just not smart enough but I always have the best luck with Debian/Ubuntu style distros. I’m glad Arch users are happy with Arch, it just doesn’t work for me

Not to defend Mini-hands Musolinni but the full quote reads a bit different:

"[Territory swaps will] be discussed, but I’ve got to let Ukraine make that decision. And I think they’ll make a proper decision. But I’m not here to negotiate for Ukraine. I’m here to get them at a table,” Trump said.

I’d prefer they set the building on fire

We need to do more than riot

I don’t think we need to hear from the Signature Strike, Surveilance State, and gross expansion of executive power guy right now

"FATHER: You remember? In the streets…hundreds of thousands marching shoulder to shoulder… Biggest demonstrations in HK history. The world watched it all happen. Heard our voices. Saw us bleed.

MOTHER: So?

FATHER: So if we stayed silent? didnt stand up for ourselves? They would say…this is how it always was. They would say…this is what the people wanted. But no. They can’t say that. Because it has gone down in history… That we resisted fiercely. That we fought for a different future…until we couldn’t. That legacy lives in us."

I was just there in March. Hiked Mount Hollywood and finshed at the observatory. It was a fun day

That’s a lot of money.

Kdenlive is really really good. This isn’t an expert opinon. I don’t do a ton of video editing but it feels both easy to learn (for a layman like me) and powerful enough to do anything I need it to do

How?

Yes, but I was making rough reference to our current posture on the middle east (quarter-century, war-on-terror) which I felt was an appropriate start point to the current discussion

I get the sentiment of some to be all “tHeY’rE mAd AbOuT aN aPp, NoT bOmBiNg CiVilIaNs!” but we’ve been bombing civilians for 25 years now, while the Signal controversy is new. You can (and should) be mad about both things but right now we need to recognise that the Signal scandal is giving us leverage on both sides on the aisle to move against this administraion.

We’d be fools not to lean in and leverage this moment
