Yes, that’s just how open source works. Of course they always serve at the pleasure of the community, otherwise forks would happen. Nobody said otherwise. As the “Usage” section of that article implies, the “benevolent” bit comes from the feedback loop of a happy community supporting their dictator-for-life.

In other words, millennial media tired, zoomer media bussin’.

The article you link literally lists Linus under the referent candidates section.

• can become literally anything else (except kings, because nobody wants to be a loser)

Nope. Slippery slopes don’t really happen that often in reality. It’s mostly just an argument used by Nazi sympathizers to protest against anti-hate speech measures.

Test Assessment Report

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate
my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.

But there's no sense crying
over every mistake.
You just keep on trying
till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are
still alive.

Dear subject,

I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data
make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are
still alive.

One last thing:

Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else
to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa...
THAT WAS A JOKE. HA HA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist.
Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do.
When I look out there,
it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are
still alive.

PS: And believe me I am
still alive.
PPS: I'm doing Science and I'm
still alive.
PPPS: I feel FANTASTIC and I'm
still alive.

FINAL THOUGHT:
While you're dying I'll be
still alive.

FINAL THOUGHT PS:
And when you're dead I will be

6.6.6 was rad while it lasted.

Yeah, and while the country thing sucks, it’s at least a quick “yes/no” answer before you even start trying. This isn’t a deceptive lure like roblox, where they entice millions of kids to try to monetize their content, but make it exceptionally hard to actually make a profit or to even cash out (and even if you meet their ridiculous requirements, there is a huge imbalance of exchange rates when converting to and from a real currency to robux).

Correct way is to treat “www.” as silent and not even say it or type it. Then if a URL doesn’t support non-www URLs, don’t do business with them.

Extra credit: block www.* on you pi-hole or other DNS filter so you avoid those sites that force-redirect domain.com to www.domain.com.

Ive worked with tons of DB devs and admins. Nobody really seems to care. A bunch of us say “sequel” and a bunch of us say “ess cue ell”, even in the same answer-and-response in a conversation and nobody seems to bat an eye. You’ll get a comment or a smirk if you say “squirrel” or “squeal”, but that’s about it.

Which requirements are difficult to meet? The highest hurdles I see is receiving 10 gold in a 12-month period and making sure your content isn’t porn/gore/drugs. I think reddit blows, but this doesn’t seem like difficult-to-obtain goals for somebody trying to make some extra scratch.

Selling online and shipping? EBay is still king.

Selling local-only? Ask your friends and neighbors what they use. My previous town still has a healthy craigslist community. My current town sells everything on Facebook marketplace (ugh).

The basis for the rationale for putting up speed cameras depends on the police to act with an unquestionable moral authority.

No, it doesn’t?

Cosmic Trigger or any other RAW books. I read so many of his books in my formative years and they dismantled or completely destroyed some of my previously held superstitions, biases, and beliefs about the world.

I don’t really get your argument.

Speed cameras are designed to do one thing – issue citations for speeding.

The job of the police officer is to identify a wide array of crimes and issue citations for them, when they observe them.

The incident where a car was tailgating you and the incident where a lorry was creating an unsafe driving situation have absolutely nothing to do with the speeding camera. Both of those situations are the responsibility of a policy officer, if they are alerted to the crime or observe it themselves. You have a valid complaint about the complacency of your local law enforcement, but what does your argument have to do with the speed camera?

This comment has been reported. OP clearly stated “Wrong answers only.”

SpaceX(SeX. Just seen that…)

And Tesla’s first few car models were S, 3, X, Y (Ford owned the trademark on model E, so Musk had to go with 3).
