Reddit Refugee. Looking to engage, rather than be manipulated by algorithms into reacting.


Yes, and yes.


It’s telling that the defining event in his political transformation was a serious neurological injury. We’re all apparently one brain bleed away from right-wing authoritarianism. Also, nobody seems surprised that somebody diminished from their former selves will naturally move to the right. Its almost as if that worldview is more suited to people who aren’t accustomed to thinking.


Under His eye.

Best of luck, Graham.
Should you get elected, do try to not bust a Benedict Arnol… um, John Fetterman maneuver.
At least you got the tender version.

First visit to Cuba that we know about


Typical boomer nonsense, conflating anti-zionism with anti-semitism when it’s convenient for argument’s sake. I feel like there should be more depth from Carville, but then again senescence is a bitch.


They couldn’t have been sober, then.
Kids are little disease vectors that drain your life-force and murder your dreams.
If you enjoy being broke, fat, tired, and boring, you should totally have kids. Come on, do it! Your friends and family just assume you’ll squeeze out one or two, you don’t want to disappoint them , do you?


Just install Amphetamine on your Mac, duh


Nick Bostrom takes himself waaaaaaaayyy too seriously.
Scroll through your typical node_modules directory without learning a little something about software bloat. Yikes.
It’s quite a lot, what we expect from our technology now. But we made it this way because the marketplace has deemed there must always be a winner and a loser, so it’s a never ending game of accelerationist oneupmanship.
The market pressures the competitors, the competitors pressure the engineers, the engineers pressure each other to deliver faster and faster. Sometimes they’re backed into a corner and have to focus on more speed and efficiency, which is shortly thereafter consumed by frameworks, languages, and operating systems that are also competing for adopters, and thus supply stuff like JIT compilers and UI frameworks.
Even before we were plunged into the hellscape of vibe coding, you could knock an app together with a kit of parts using a pinch of glue code, having no clue what’s happening underneath the gui. Who cares? My Mac at idle is running hundreds of processes, it can take it. Until of course it can’t.
Back in olden times, a piece of software was painstakingly hand-built in assembler and C over a course of many months. But ain’t nobody got time for that when your manager can shit out an app with Claude in an afternoon.


“There are no poor people, just temporarily embarrassed millionaires"


Maybe its too on the nose to say so on Lemmy, but fuck Reddit right in the earhole. Their pearl-clutching, risk-averse, pro-corporate moderation-bot and tattle-tale system was the last straw.


Cool, cool. Go form a militia, why dontcha, you little bitch. We can throw down someplace more private.


“Move fast and break things” was cute when it wasn’t propping up the entire American economy.


Well, if they rere trying to put their political enemies on a war footing, this is a fine way to inspire it.
On a related note, I was unaware there was international funding available. Do I get double payments for being both anticapitalist AND transgender?


I would say leakers are acting ethically.


Psychopaths gonna psycho.
They do not see most of us as actual humans. So, who cares if a few of us get blown away, or tortured, drowned, deported, beaten, or robbed? They are above such plebian dalliances.
Homeboy might be more credible without that fucked-up haircut. Seriously, are you that disconnected from the world of normal people that you can look in the mirror with that ‘do, consider it critically, and say, “yeah, that’s just what I’m going for"
