   @griotspeak
   It’s an absolutely bonehead response. And I realize that every politician is and must be a product of their electorate – and who knows what this guy’s electorate is like — but dammit, you find find a better way. You just do.

   In the meantime, Democrats in Minnesota were selling a trans flag Minnesota shirt front and center at the State Fair. It’s not like it’s impossible for a major party to publicly stick up for queer people. Can be done, folks!

   The most important thing I've learned in 8 years is this: Authoritarianism causes people to think and do things they never anticipated they might think or do.

   In 2016, every GOP senator despised Trump. Now, almost all of them would gladly kill or die for Trump.

   Your MAGA neighbor, parent, or spouse, who loves you, might one day murder you. As unthinkable as it seems now, any of us might one day commit murder for our führer.

   Look, it's not so much that the failing and ML-containerization of search keep you from finding the answers to problems you care about. It's that they keep you from finding the people who share your problems or care about the same things you do.

   In a world of forums, whether it's reddit or discourse or phpbb or anything, search is a soft path to social discovery, in the way view-source was once a soft path to collaboration. This isn't going away by accident. This is being taken from us.

   @MartyFouts @lucasmz @linux_mclinuxface No it is not. No open source license is revocable. What they are doing is not revoking anything but making a choice to license the new versions with some garbage license only, not the original BSD license, which is something a non copyleft open source license like BSD licenses allows *anyone* to do.

   In any case, they've essentially just made a garbage fork of their own product which will be irrelevant in a couple years if not months. 🤷 🤡

   @dpnash I'm not a native speaker, so I'm not entirely clear what the difference in wording would do.

   In Swedish they're (translated to English) "machine dishwashing agent" and "hand dishwashing agent", is that unambiguously reflected in the "dishwasher" vs "washing-up" distinction?

   I can see that "dishwasher" is clearly the machine, is "washing up" clearly by hand?

   Honestly the state of the internet is miserable if you're trying to learn things.

   Like, you want to learn how to care for an animal? Well, every Google result is a bot generated fake blog. Maybe try YouTube? Well, you have a few new options: there's the person who just got this animal for the first time talking like experts about them. Or there's the literal child telling you what they learned about caring for hamsters from the bot generated fake blogs they just looked up.

   This goes for almost anything anymore. There's no expertise, the only advice is just from whoever is the best at SEO, which is often not an actual person. But if it is they probably know as much as you do.

   In the last 6 or 7 years I've found myself more and more just digging up ebooks from people who know what the fuck they're talking about.
