I had to switch away from Jerboa because it would crash any time I’d create a link with custom text in my comments. I switched to Voyager and it’s on lot more stable.

If we’re going by Columbus logic, probably “Jupiter”

I had a discussion/argument in ~2018 with a friend who is/was very anti-trump. I brought up the dangers of ICE and how, at the time, they were the biggest sign of an overtly fascist future. He immediately handwaved it and dismissed me as crazy.

He’s got a degree in history education and was obsessed with WW2 history, so I didn’t think this would be a point of contention. But for a lot of liberals (including him) Fascists have to literally be wearing a swastika before they’re called what they are. Some won’t even acknowledge the existence of a Nazi Salute when they see one.

Even today he’s obsessed with Trump as the single anomaly in US politics and doesn’t see the bigger picture.

Yeah, I wonder why everyone isn’t on the Nazi website calling out Trump. 🤔

Trump is quite clearly a monster. Theres never been a question in anyone’s mind (other than idiots) that Trump would commit attrocities. What is striking is that Biden would act similarly to Trump, which is why people who voted for Joe Biden in 2020 were especially angry.

Had you libs actually taken this genocide seriously for the past year rather than spit in the face of anyone who had a conscience, your question would be irrelevant.

You’re absolutely right that they dont fight dirty enough. Hiwever, I’d say that Democrats lost largely because Kamala was too cowardly to distance herself from biden and his awful policies. She lost because she chose to court moderate Republicans (who gave her the finger and voted for the fascist. Big surprise!).

Biden pardoning his loser son does nothing for the most marginalized folks who will have to deal with Trump’s fascist regime in the coming year. It’s not a good look that the only time Biden “fights dirty” is to serve his own interests.

Abused his power?

Yes, I would say that pardoning your own son as president is a conflict of interest, unethical, and an abuse of power. It demonstrates that Hunter is above the laws that Joe Biden helped architect. I’m surprised that this sentiment is so controversial.

I’m specifically talking about the silly framing of “a child” rather than “his child”

1. Biden sponsored the crime bill that put those people behind bars in the first place.

2. Biden abused his powers to pardon his son for crimes that other people will remain in prison for. Crimes that are more severely punished because of Biden.

Its actually quite relevant to the conversation

I think pardoning a child for a dumb drug offence is fine. 🤷‍♂️

His son is hardly a child at 54 years old. Biden is also responsible for thousands of people behind bars because of “a dumb drug offense”.

I don’t think that Trump should be the bar for morality and ethics in this country. It’s lazy to bring him into this conversation.

Yeah Alex Jones can rot in hell

Unfortunately, I would guess that school shooter locations are probably the most easily recognised in the US. Uvalde has a population of ~15,000, for instance.

I bought a Boox Palma and I love it. I know people have concerns about privacy related to android (though a kindle and/or Kobo are just as bad IMO). I never set up an Google account and it’s been in airplane mode since I turned it on. I wanted an e-reader that I could add books from my PC without any fuss. That’s all I need and it works well for that. I love the form factor too.

I hope there’s a day when this shit is used as evidence

Definitely interested in trying this one out. Haven’t dove into the FOSS games category yet

That’s a good point. I guess I just read the title and everyone else’s comments saying stuff like “Python” and “TypeScript”

Kinda surprised that no one has mentioned sign language. I feel that it’s use cases expand outside the original intent, especially if other people in your circle understand it.

Not to mention the normalization of such a connection between pro-palestine and “terrorism”. People who are out of the loop will read the headline and assume that the person arrested for terrorism is guilty. They’ll start to associate the pro-Palestinian viewpoint with terrorism if enough arrests like these make it into headlines.

I think this is a pretty obtuse take. Users obviously want their mouse to remain functional when the battery dies. It’s not a wireless vs wired mouse debate.

Yep, anyone who is celebrating this is shortsighted and letting their own nationalistic ideas and jingoism cloud their judgement.
