we were grabbin apps in the usenet binaries by the mid-late 80s

your zip code is prolly a bigger influence than anything

more of a rant than a showerthought… but i guess if this is what runs through youre head when youre wet…

the world needs ditch diggers too

i feel like there are rockstars in this category… like jets and cubs fans

hahahhahaha headed?? dude weve been heading that way for as long as ive been alive… the fact that we dont have universal health care and spend a trillion$ a year on a military despite being the biggest assholes on the planet is a giant fucking reminder that we literally are and have been for awhile now…

the public is now managed via fox news, all your ‘representatives’ could not possibly care less about anything more than their own self interests (bought and paid for!)

laws dont matter, rich people do not face any consequences for almost anything.

where arent we a plutocracy?? that we still pretend our votes dont usher in more big business??

florida rejoice!

i would expect there is a thing they would call the persons ‘effects’ or ‘estate’ which can have a negative valuation. the landlord could file a claim against the dead persons effects, and receive compensation from that… maybe

ha, k. i get it, and youre not wrong about gaining those skills.

I would think a good therapist would be able to provide exactly the kind of inter-human training needed to achieve what youre discussing. the tools exist, the people are out there. can any of those who really want that help afford it? prolly not.

we don’t have a ‘we need this thing to exist’ problem… we have a ‘no one wants to pay for that thing that already exists’ problem, as usual.

that said, you pointed out this causes a lot of societal problems though, and it seems many of the most vocal or problematic are those people (men) who dont think they are the problem at all. no amount draggin them to the help well is going to make them drink.

reminds me of the old joke… ‘q: how many psychiatrists does it take to change a lightbulb? a: only one, but the lightbulb has to want to change’

doesnt matter how good the training is if the person doesnt want it.

it kinda sounds like you failed to back them up and are attempting to restore them from a non-backup.

and yeah, pulling an integral, configured component and expecting it to just run fine seems kinda… psychotic.

might be a bit heavy for this, but ive been having fun with nextcloud… its caldav based, i think. ive got it syncin with outlook calendars and the mobile client seems to throw shit in my face as needed

havent really messed with the contact stuff though

you misunderstand… he was convicted of 34 felonies. its the punishment phase that took his bank account and affiliates into consideration

thats the same for almost everyone who is a billionaire, its very fair!

coming soon, to a united states near you!

Well… its for data driven anything…so in your case id prolly have a dash with all my services maybe I a list with ip/port and a red/green status… links to the admin piece of that service, etc… cert exp dates

i always saw the dont be evil tenet as akin to a warrant canary, only clearly for 'this corporation now puts profits over literally everything else"

when google stopped using this phrase… i think it was around 08 maybe before… thats when google turned. like a person whose zombie infection has finally set in. all the cool things about them began to evaporate. the long track record of lies ramps up and that huge graveyard of products began to fill.

so youre sayin if we made it uninhabitable we could kill 2 birds with 1 nuke?
