There’s been some great ideas here, but I like yours the best.

Bill Burr complaining about being forced to be the pope would be amazing.

“I’m not going to lead mass. Leading mass is Charlie Work!”

Huh. Pope Joan?

I don’t know enough about it to confidently say they’re going to lose all their money

It happened to my relative. They didn’t lose everything, but they lost enough that they’re shopping for a mobile home for retirement, when they previously could have bought a small house.

Plausible explanation.

Immutable distros can usually be set to mutable with the correct privileged command.

It’s essentially security by obscurity. But I disagree with “no benefit”. An infection miss through dumb luck is still a miss, after all.

What hateful POS is against worldwide unification?

Vibrant ecologies have diversity. Fully unified government isnt diverse, and would be bad for at least some people. I hope all of our governments suck less, but still have each-other to compete with.

This was really helpful. Thank you.

I remember those days, as well!

I’m with you.

Thankfully, corporate bullahit isn’t the only way to create a discovery algorithm.

I expect that we will have a diverse set of discovery algorithms available to opt into here, in a few years.

Thanks!

Jeff Bezos never smashed the window on my car to steal my speakers,

True.

he doesnt come out vandalising public transport or parks and he isnt the reason my wife doesnt feel safe walking around at night.

If we could even comprehend the scale of his unpaid taxes, or their impact on our parks, we might discuss this at length…

Is also very very queer tho JSYK

That could be our new Lemmy slogan.

There’s a couple of them, I think.

The surprisingly deep copy of Balatro in “Dave the Diver” is pretty good.

Did I miss something, or is a 12 year old in France now in (indefinite?) police custody for being curious online?

Altair Basic was released in 1978 for hardware that sold around 25,000 units..

I’m sure glad computing remained exactly equally complex since then, with exactly the same number of users, and same minimal diversity of use cases. (This is sarcasm.)

Everything should still take 10 days. Anyone who tells me it takes longer probably believes all that crap about the Internet being more than a passing fad. (Still sarcasm.)
