@holot @p working support for apple was the most 1on1 i had with the OS and that was years ago, but i did enjoy putting people on hold to see what the terminal could do and forget what i was helping with because i'd be stoned at work

The only thing that can defeat Donald Trump is coronavirus, and I'm going to be that coronavirus that defeats Donald Trump.

i can’t even tell what’s copypasta and what’s fresh-baked cringe anymore

People seriously underestimate how long I have waited for opportunities to ruin lives and how viciously I will happily act on grudges from even decades ago.

They don't take undue headspace. That's how you let yourself get consumed by hatred. Such feelings are like a supernova that burn themselves out uselessly.

No, the way to do it is to calmly commit the event to memory. File it away neatly. Keep a list.

Then when you get the chance, when the opportunity is there to deal the most damage - you act on it. Without moral reasoning, without internal reflection, without hesitation. Like a spy who's lived an ordinary life for twenty years suddenly hearing his trigger phrase and snapping into programming.

Sometimes it causes remorse later, but on the whole I find it's worth it to ensure that anyone who has done something sufficiently displeasing, no matter how long ago it was or how much distance they put between themselves and the action, or how much they develop and change, can ever truly rest.

@matrix This is the guy who wanted to murder me. This is the guy who tried to split me and Sim up. This is the guy who thinks 'good' people stick by him.

Deluded arse.

In case he deletes it

@Galena @mewmew @sylveon This thread is a indictment of public education. For shame.

Regarding deaths, its all pretty well documented. There is some controversy, but your free decide on your own.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_killings_under_communist_regimes

Second, Capitalism, or more specifically, Free Markets are nothing more than private property and voluntary trade/interaction. We've got plenty of documentation on the mass killings of Communist countries to get those staggeringly high death tolls, but regarding claims like "Capitalism has killed more" I've never seen a source. Go find one and I'll read it.

We've got plenty of documentation to make it clear that Capitalism has brought more people out of poverty than anything else in history, though.

Thirdly, nothing about capitalism or free markets prevents a government from being corrupt. Anytime you have a government of any kind, you get corruption. The only grace in this area where Capitalist economies have a boost is that they have less centralized control. That doesn't prevent them from rolling 3rd world governments in south america. Only way to get rid of that is to vastly limit state power.

@sylveon Because its really

"we should make sure everyone has food, clean water, a place to live, maybe healthcare and education too -- by theft and force."

> 1. "alt-left" isn't real.

Whoever is chanting "No USA at all", whoever is punching "Nazis" (which includes, I am given to understand, everyone that is not full-communist, most especially people that tell communists to go away, because they're 100% complicit and probably secret fascists), whoever is tearing down statues, whoever is trying to get speeches and events cancelled, whoever is pulling the fire alarm or storming the stage when they can't get the event cancelled, whoever is in the group that literally took the president of Evergreen University hostage and threatened Dr. Weinstein, that is who is meant by the "alt-left". You don't like the term, whatever, don't pretend that they're not real.

> as long as you're not still holding onto bigoted views

...However those end up getting defined.

@druid @alyx @kick @mewmew @sylveon I can sympathize with that position, but I cannot agree with it. If we can joke about killing anyone, we can joke about killing everyone.

@druid @alyx @kick @mewmew @sylveon "We should kill the billionaires" is a dumb, edgiboi meme. I gave it as much respect as it deserved.

@ebihara oh and another thing
riot defaults to matrix.org or modular.im
which are both new vector
it hides using a non vector instance behind "advanced settings"
at least on mobile
i havent used riot on pc in forever, i tend to use quanternion when i need matrix despite its missing features

Any decentralized platform with a flagship instance is completely missing the point.

@thatbrickster @ebihara oh cool and basically every big project that switched to matrix from irc use modular.im
very nice
they might as well use telegram or slack at that point
like mozilla
why did mozilla switch from irc anyways?
besides them completely neglecting their server of course
