Github works and it’s worked for a long time

Unless they pull a Reddit, then it will be the main source for a long time

See, sites run by sane people know that so long as you give a consistent functioning product then the base will stay and grow.

They don’t even have to innovate much so long as those two factors are there

Musk needs to serve those papers to Reddit too.

They’re not even changing the plagiarism to try to hide it.

Its less of a belief and more of a fact at this point.

Its still really sad either which way

That’s why I support the “right to repair”

Sadly a lot of devices are losing that ability by design

The really funny part was she was pretty normal until MAGA and the alt right radicalized her via lies

She turned into that shockingly quickly

My best guess is that something was wrong with her that she hid deep inside until it was let out

The Tall Man from Phantasm scared the shit out of me

I still have a nightmare once a decade about him chasing me screaming “BOY!”

My number one reason: battery life

I almost dated a conservative but covid saved me.

The moment it hit, her conservative powers went omega level and I was able to dodge a bullet by wanting to vaccinate early

This is why you never talk to a cop.

You can only talk yourself INTO trouble. You can never talk yourself OUT of trouble.

If you’re ever asked to talk to the police, you say “I invoke the 5th and do not talk to police”

Make sure you invoke the right. Being wishy-washy about it doesn’t count.

If ever detained, continue invoking the 5th, as well as state outright you want to talk to a layer.

Just don’t talk. Don’t have a conversation. Don’t tell them what you had for breakfast. If they want to talk, they can talk to your lawyer. That’s what they are there for.

The free space in the middle can just be “BEANS”

The first “A” in ACAB stands for ALL.

Yes even that one cop. Yes, even your uncle.

There can be no good cops while they allow bad cops to exist.

If you ever get detained by cops:

1. “I am exercising my right to remain silent.”

2. “I am exercising my right to speak with a lawyer.”

3. SHUT UP (Don’t say shut up. Actually shut up)

Always remember:

You can never talk yourself OUT of trouble. You can only talk yourself INTO trouble!

Windows 11 is my newest “main” computer. I also just got a nice Win 11 laptop for my new business.

Though my “working” IT laptop boots with both Windows 10 and Ubuntu.

Yeah, but it’s easier and more reliable in some cases.

For example, every three months I have to go through a renewal process to get my diabetes medicine with my insurance. That’s up to a week without my life saving medicine.

If I were to get it on the darknet, I’d add years to my life since I don’t have to wait weeks to get the proper medicine.

That’s not true. There’s a difference between addiction and dependence medically.

You don’t say that a person on insulin is an addict. You don’t say that a person on heart medicine is an addict. We shouldn’t say that a person on opiates are addicts.

Addicts take the medicine without a medical need. Dependent people need to take the medicine in order to live a normal life.

A lot of people are turning to the dark web to get just basic medicine because it’s such a headache to get the medicine that they need. It’s WAY cheaper too.

It’s sad that people have to resort to that, but it’s better than suffering.

Yeah, I know that I started on Fark around September 11th

The internet DDoS’d all the news sites and Fark was the only place anyone could get any information.

It’s crazy that it’s still around and pretty much unchanged.

People who are dependent on opiates and opioids.

Some people who are in a lot of pain legitimately need the medicine in order to have a normal life. It doesn’t make us high, it makes us ‘normal’ because we actually require the medicine to bring us to normal levels of activity.

Just because someone is physically dependent on the medicine, does not make them an addict too

Most of us would rather never take another pill in our lives if we were suddenly healed.

Lemmy is pretty much my new Reddit much in the same way Reddit was my new Fark.com 12 years ago.

Now that I’m on Lemmy, I’m also exploring Fark again. I’m wondering why I ever left as it still is super relevant.

The first ‘A’ in ACAB stands for ALL

Yes even that one cop you know. Yes, even your uncle.

There can be no ‘good’ cops while they look away from ‘bad’ cops

Yeah, he’s one of the best parts of the movie too
