@noyoushutthefuckupdad The point is that you don't need raytracing to simulate realistic reflections.

This is what you get for not holding your leaders accountable.

@ChristiJunior @tomjennings This is bucket of crabs BS. "Nooo! We can't go to space or build anything cool because some African kid is hungry." If we spend all our time trying to uplift the lowest dregs of humanity who stubbornly refuse to be uplifted, we ultimately become cynical and think everything is pointless when this inevitably fails. Some people and groups of people are failures through their own fault, and if they don't want to be helped, let them be and move on to other endeavors.

Unlike Google, F-Droid does not force developers to publicize their name or address information.

We understand that people have many reasons to develop under another name than their legal one and to keep their personal information private. And that what matters is the trust between user and developer, not private details of their lives.

For more information on how we designed F-Droid to protect your privacy, see f-droid.org/2022/02/28/no-user.

@unlight @ArdainianRight @hachi I'm missing one finger. Government, please give me free money!

I was just about to post about "disability" having such a broad spectrum of classifications and handouts that somebody can use a labyrinth of legalese to get on the government cheese

Are 3D pens just 3D printers for poor people? I wonder if it is possible to make guns with these.

@hachi @ArdainianRight @unlight You realize that white nationalists also love UBI because it allows them to make a living while still being openly racist, right?

@ArdainianRight @hachi If you are too disabled to work, you shouldn't be living alone. I shouldn't have to have my hard earned money stolen and given to disabled strangers.

@genmaicha @thomholwerda Lunduke likes to dig into open source finances. He did a nice piece on the Linux Foundation a couple of years ago. Seems like he released a piece on Mozilla finances today, hence the knee jerk reaction here.

No idea why anyone would call him a nazi. He’s just a nerd with slight old tech nostalgia obsession from the looks of it.

@jhclouse @KryptoBlok Sure, but I feel like there is a reason why the government is afraid of private or even personal space travel, even if it's just exploring near-Earth objects like the moon (SpaceX doesn't count; it's government funded). Space agencies DO fake a lot of shit (it's the reason why people who point out NASA fakes are lumped in with flat-earthers). Seriously, anyone who launches anything to the moon is asked by the US government not to go anywhere near the alleged moon landing sites.

@xianc78 @KryptoBlok What they really fear is something much simpler: that ordinary people will stop trusting them en masse. That’s the true source of their power. No need for alien spacecraft or advanced technologies. Just plain old faith in the legitimacy of institutions and a lack of curiosity about the character of those who control them.

@BronzeAgeHogCranker @RMIV You can grow your own rice in the US, but you have to start indoors.
