When they don’t self report the ones that are bad, they become bad.

How is that concept difficult for you?

Given your posts, I’m thinking you are a cop. This post certainly shows the absolute utter lack of imagination and empathy that cops have.

You should have become a fire fighter if you wanted people to admire your self sacrifice.

I’ve been held at gun point three times in my life.

Every time I was not doing anything illegal or even suspicious. I am white, not that that should make a difference, but we all know it does. EDIT: to be clear, I’m saying cops are racist, and unjustly target minorities.

Each of those three times the person holding the gun was a power tripping asshole cop.

I have been in several dangerous situations where a cop happened by, and just kept on going.

I already live in a world where the police will not be there for me when I need them, and they solely present a danger with no benefit.

You want to see people that are truly guided by a desire to help people? Go to a fire station or a hospital. Cops are not heroes, just assholes that want power over others.

Tell that to Libya.

The clients are a bit under developed by progressing quickly, and are all open source.

Gajim can, but you have to create it yourself.

Nah, xmpp is better.

I’m a sys admin/devops engineer, and yes, storage is far more expensive then people realize.

This is the very definition of enshittification.

EDIT: To those downvoting:

Do you actually know what the definition of enshittification is? Apparently not.

Enshittification (alternately, crapification and platform decay) is a pattern in which online products and services decline in quality. Initially, vendors create high-quality offerings to attract users, then they degrade those offerings to better serve business customers, and finally degrade their services to users and business customers to maximize profits for shareholders.

It doesn’t matter that the cost of storage is a real thing. They gave things of value away for free to grow their user base and to try and capture network effects. Now that they think they have that they are taking away ( or decreasing ) the free stuff of value they gave away.

The fact that storage has value is literally an important part of enshitification.

It wouldn’t be enshitification if they gave away free stuff that wasn’t valuable.

Because my country is directly enabling and, depending on the definition, participating in a genocide and there is no one I can vote for (who would likely win) who will do even the slightest thing to stop it.

I do this, but I’ve got a wood chip yard except for where plants are.

Guess where the little bastards bury their peanuts?

I think you meant the F-35

It’s funny. I look at blocking as some king of moral judgment against the community, and so I don’t end up using it to shape my feed due to annoyance.

But, man, would I like to browse all without a million 196 posts.

Maybe it’s time I start.

None, anymore.

Eventually you end up with a resume/knowledge that sells itself.

I’m not talking about government jobs that require certain certs, though.

I’m very happy with posteo

They are not bound to lose.

That is a statement that is being pushed, along with the whole Biden “Over prepared” thing as a talking point to push why we have to stick with a dementia-addled genocidal asshole.

It’s simply not a true statement. You’re stating an opinion as fact, and it’s misleading as shit.

The second someone else gets picked is the second that they (Whoever they are) have name recognition and people will consider that person.

Oh, you are right about that.

He can’t. His only power over SCOTUS is nominating Justices in the event of a vacancy.

This is wrong. He can pack the courts RIGHT NOW. The Democratic party still holds the Senate. There is no requirement for there to only be nine justices.

Edit: This does require the house changing the number of justices. So the above is incorrect.

Convention hasn’t happened yet. It literally isn’t too late for that.

This is a comment from someone who has no idea what DKIM is.

Those emails were cryptographically proven to be sent from that email server.

Saying anything else proves you are ignorant of the technology and trying to provide cover for emails that were proven to come from the DNC servers at a mathematical level.
