A lot of red states have put laws into place to make usurping the election all but a certainty.

This may very well be the last democratic election that we’ll have in our lifetime if we’re not careful.

Fwiw, I’ve been prime free now for almost three years. If you batch your orders, you can still get free shipping.

Not only that but if you’re looking at a high priced item the manufacturer will often ship it for free at the same price as amazon.

That’s when I knew we lost. When power hungry moderators felt threatened and, instead of standing in solidarity with its users, caved to corporate demands.

“But we’ll be able to still protest. Every Tuesday.”

Hell are those protests still going on? I highly doubt it.

If I’m going through the trouble of self hosting one, it better be open source.

I mean…

I’m not opposed to a lemmy-based tracker but will admit I’ve never made one before.

I have extensive dev experience and would be willing to learn.

My constraints would be time honestly.

I’ve been saying this for almost a year. Not open AI specifically but any company with a board of directors.

They aren’t considering the shareholder value of their most expensive liability: the CEO.

He (because let’s face it. It’s going to be a he in most cases) is paid millions of dollars with a golden parachute. Literally money that could be given back to shareholders through dividends.

The fact that Boards of Directors aren’t doing this could be evidence that they aren’t looking out for shareholders’ interests

Fwiw they aren’t really asking about the motorcycle. I mean they are but they are washing your mouse movements and how fast you click through the images. It’s okay to get a few images wrong.

I’ve actually been thinking about playing Fallout again. I don’t even remember half the things you’re talking about.

Ah the memories.

If they raise the price, then they only get money once. If they sell your data, now they have an income stream.

We need Dolly to make this…like now.

In that case I’d point them to your fork with a link to the PR where they maintainer chose not to include it.

Same with me. I asked upfront if they would accept a PR for a minor change. I described the issue in detail and my proposed fix.

He said sure.

I made the PR.

Same guy comments, “Wtf do you need this for?! We already have X solution with Y features.”

I reply back, “Because Y doesn’t cover Z use case, which is what I need it for.”

The issue was closed without further comment.

Of course not! We employees of Fortune 500 companies use Google Sheets to manage critical data.

It’s in the cloud, that’s how you know it’s good.

(I’m not even joking…our VP said this)

A lot of hate on this guy. Not saying it’s not deserved. But it has to start somewhere.

“My exegesis of those half dozen passages, it hasn’t changed. I think the Bible says what it says, and disapproves of gay sex, full stop,” Hays continued. “But there’s a very arbitrary selectivity about picking out those two verses in Leviticus as the foundation for an opinion on this subject.”

I used to be a fundamentalist right wing Christian Republican. I see myself in this sentence.

The love of Christ that Christians say they have was nowhere near their hatred of “the gays”. Jesus says nothing of Homosexuality so Christians hang their politics on two really obscure verses in the Old Testament.

He’s taking steps in the right direction. He still has a ways to go to make amends.

But the fact that he’s publicly “coming out” with his apology should be seen as a good thing because he’s likely going to get bomb and death threats from the fundamentalists.

I use thepresident@whitehouse.gov any time some shitty website requires me to register for their newsletter or create a free account.

If Ashley Madison doesn’t (didn’t? Are they still around?) require email validation, and enough people hate you (or at least want to troll you), then yeah…might be legit.

I don’t have a problem with the death penalty as a concept.

I have a problem with the fact that it disproportionately is given to people of color where evidence is dubious and circumstantial.

Treason and sedition should still be capital crimes.

The guy is a senator. He was voted in by his state.

If they don’t want to be represented by him, they should have voted him out in 2022.

Very Jeremy Jamms energy.

There is a mayor that came out against Trump early in the election, I think even before Biden dropped out.

I am not aware of any Republican who are running for an elected office who have come out against Trump.
