Against, regardless of crime. Regardless of the system used to kill. Regardless of the system used to convict or identify the criminal. Even if they are unrepentant and said they’d do it again. Even under a perfect justice system.
Now life in prison, sure.
No, because nothing happened. Does sound like it was projection though.
Wait is hexchat really dead? Didn’t it replace xchat? So what’s the go to irc client now?
So what’s the solution to keep abusive access from psudo-ddosing open projects? IP range blocks? Keeping access behind accounts as a speed bump for bots and a tool for tracking abuse?
I think all government software should be GPLed. Of the binaries or interfaces don’t face the public then the code doesn’t need to be shared, but otherwise: public funded should mean it’s a publicly accessible good.
The second panel should include “I still get paid for the work of one.”
Yeah the prices are getting out of control. It can be cheaper to eat at a fast casual restaurant.
See the guy in the meme asked for a thing the genie liked, so the genie granted the wish and gave him extra wishes. Hahahahaha
Can’t tell if this is anti USSR and Pro Russia, or Pro Ukraine and pro USSR. I’m hoping it’s the latter but I just can’t tell.
Generally think mandatory minimums are unjust, but political corruption. It’s wrong per se but also has downstream negative effects on society.
No idea about Cakewalk etc but your Steam games will almost all be fine and Linux is honestly great right now and always getting better.
Having used Linux Mint, Windows 10, and Windows 11, I can honestly say that Win10 is okay and Win11 is annoying dogshit. I’d recommend taking the Linux plunge of course, but if you’re desperate for Windows I think paid extended support for 10 might be a thing?
But like I said 11 is dogshit and there’s no time like the present to just grab 3-4 USB sticks at Microcenter, download a bunch of ISOs and Rufus or Balena Etcher, and just dick around. Linux Mint with Cinnamon or KDE will probably give you one of the slickest Windows-like experiences OOTB. Only recommendation: some wifi cards (with certain chips, I forget which) in my experience have required me to go hunt down a driver, so check reviews for any card you’re looking at to see if people report it working out of the box.
I’d say buy CDs from a credit union, or municipal bonds (riskier though). In fact maybe the best thing to do for now is to move your banking over to a credit union if there’s one you can join, or to a smaller local bank if you can’t and you’re with one of the big bastards.
After that, in terms of stock, an S&P index fund will have some of the best and most consistent returns, and all you’re really betting on is ‘line goes up.’ One could try to find an individual ethical company or companies, like maybe publicly traded B Corps, but even those I have doubts about.
And real estate isn’t getting any cheaper, so if you already own a home, I suppose you could buy another one and rent it at cost. You get equity, and the renters presumably get below market rent. Maintain the property, give the renters right of first refusal if you decide to sell, and sell at marginal markup rather than market rate and you’d probably be doing better than your average landlord. This is the toughest route to follow while not being a bastard.
I like some of it, but not everything. Customizable is good, but if it’s all preloaded and unmodifiable then it’s more a mockery of self-expression, isn’t it?
I mean they should have given him credit. That’s what they owe him (all they owe him) under the MIT license.
The mechanical Turk strikes again.
Actually yeah, those are.
Shit we do that already and we ain’t even got the healthcare.
It’s better because it’s life. Life is the medium of all value, everything else is physics.
And I don’t think prisons should be abusive torture chambers either. Revenge is poison. Prison should exist to separate the dangerous and harmful people from society, and to reform them as able.
