Rodeo,

Just turn off JavaScript. That breaks web viewing very effectively.

Rodeo,

You forgot to barf up the word “ethnostate” right after you barfed up “christofascist”.

Rodeo,

No, I’m just remarking on the canned vernacular people are importing from reddit.

Rodeo,

Artesian ice. $17.99/litre

Rodeo,

I honestly feel like people who say this stuff either haven’t tried Linux since 2008 or went straight to Arch.

I use Manjaro as my daily driver and I never need to fix the system. It really does just work, and these a bunch of disyros out there that do.

The only thing you might find terrible is trying to run windows programs on Linux, to which I say: dual boot! Even with all the progress Proton, Lutris etc. have made, it’s still way easier to just boot into windows on the occasion you want to play games or whatever.

Rodeo,

Too bad they don’t require this for alcohol.

Rodeo,

More important low hanging fruit:

  • Private jets
  • Multiple vehicles
  • Multiple homes

Why are people always so small minded about this? Have you not considered how immensely more polluting a car or a house is than a plastic bag? Have you not considered the people affected: a few of the richest vs millions of average people?

Think big. Think rich. Those are the changes we need.

Rodeo,

I’m just tired of being blamed when the responsibility lies squarely on the billionaires and the corporations they control.

What are some game genres / styles you like that aren't being made anymore, or are being mde but not very often?

For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

Rodeo,

I’m convinced these types of arguments are from republicans trying to garner sympathy for the poor stupid people, how could they have known! See they’re really not that bad guys, they just don’t know any better!

Such bullshit and really the most pathetic kind of excuse.

Rodeo,

What do people do that causes you pain?

Rodeo,

So what you’re saying is that you don’t care about others people’s time or convenience. Which then raises the question, why should others care about yours?

This attitude is the breakdown of the social contract being discussed right now lol

Rodeo,

That intrigued me, but the shit design of the website turned me off. I can’t even find the first episode. There’s no list, it’s blurbs of each and every episode that you have to scroll through and it only loads like 15 at a time then you have to go to the next page.

I’m not going to spend ten minutes scrolling and clicking just to find the first episode so I can try it.

Rodeo,

It is very VERY simple to set up a functional website these days. And this is an abomination of UX. It would take hardly any effort at all to improve it with a simple chronological list of links.

I don’t think I’m being too hard on them at all.

Rodeo,

What kind of complicated UX do you think is necessary here? I literally said “a simple chronological list” is all they need to improve the experience enough to make me listen.

That should take ten minutes of coding. And it is applicable to every podcast ever.

This such an elaborate excuse for such a simple mistake that would be so easy to fix.

Rodeo,

You raise a few valid points, but the problem with the action film thing is that it is fiction, and thus protected by free speech rights.

That’s actually the main argument against lolicon being illegal: depictions of other crimes, including heinous ones like murder and rape, are not illegal.

Ultimately it comes down to inconsistency in the law, and sensationalism makes it very difficult to discuss rationally.

Rodeo,

Pretty sure thats literally the premise behind the immortal man in The Sandman.

Rodeo,

They simply have to choose not kill anyone.

Nobody in this situation ever has to die. It is not some difficult choice that you are burdening the next person with. The choice is obvious.

Rodeo,

How could you know someone else is going to do it though? And how is their decision your responsibility?

If you kill someone you are a killer. It’s that simple.

Rodeo,

At least you get to write the cost of your vehicle off on your taxes, unlike everyone else.

If "No one owes you anything," then you also owe nothing to a society that works against you, including allegiance, civility, or pacifism.

A society in which it’s everyone for themselves, that refuses to care for one another, is no society at all. Then everyone acts shocked and horrified at someone who understandably snaps, like modern western culture doesn’t run entirely on schadenfreude....

Rodeo,

Have you ever worked as a retail clerk for any length of time?

I’ve met one person in all my career who genuinely felt like that after being in retail.

You don’t realize how much people suck until you spend 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year cleaning up their messes and dealing with their behavior.

Rodeo,

If only the rich had elected to share. You would never have felt any need to make your “contribution” to society and the entire problem would have been avoided.

The lesson here is that the rich need to make sure no one suffers.

Rodeo,

But if you just stop and look you’ll find good people in this fight with you.

This appears to be the sum total of your argument, and doesn’t really address his statement of the social contract being broken. Just because some “good” people remain doesn’t mean the majority haven’t been pushed by the system to something worse.

I’d also like to advise you just how arrogant your statements here are:

And giving up on them is not something I’m going to do … OP is (imo) misguided, but that doesn’t make them a bad person and it doesn’t mean they’re beyond hope. … Simply misguided but not even close to being beyond redemption or belief.

So, you think your outlook is so superior that it grants you the authority to not only judge them as misguided but further imply that they are so wrong as to require redemption? Oh, but by the sheer goodness of your heart you still grant them the gift of your hope.

This is called toxic positivity. You are using the notion of positivity in a negative way: it is a tool to assert your moral superiority and thereby belittle others.

Rodeo,

Pathetic

Rodeo,

Sharing? That’s communism! You must be angling for revolution! Don’t you know poor people die in revolutions??

Good grief what a ridiculous retort.

Believe it or not our current system (in western countries) is actually very close to what I suggested. Despite the fact that most of us are dirt poor compared to the ultra wealthy, we still have pretty much everything we need, and most of us don’t feel any need to commit crimes.

There is a small segment that does commit crimes out of necessity, and that segment needs to be cared for by the wealthy as part of securing the society they live in. Like we’re this close, they only have to do a tiny bit more and there would be no homelessness. They only have to do a tiny bit more and there would be no hunger. And instead they’re allowing the desperate to be desperate, and thus mar our society with crime.

Rodeo,

I’m on mobile and the only difference i see is the lines of text on the “better” one are spaced more so I have to scroll farther.

Is it more legible? No, I’m not a fucking donkey and I can read a block of text like a normal person.

Rodeo,

Which leads to insurance companies writing off vehicles long before their time due to cost alone, and vehicles still only last 100k miles.

Yeah, they’re more reliable than ever, but we’re still scrapping them after the same amount of use due to cost alone.

I’m so bitter about my last car. It probably had 200k left in it but the cunts were too cheap to fix it so in scrap it goes! Economy of waste.

Rodeo,

Private ownership, that’s what’s causing it.

Ther like 6 people at the top trying to stuff as much cash into their own pockets as they can, and fuck the customers. That’s what’s causing it.

Executive greed.

FBI Seizure of Mastodon Server is a Wakeup Call to Fediverse Users and Hosts to Protect their Users (www.eff.org)

**Synopsis:**The article discusses the FBI’s seizure of the Mastodon server and emphasizes the need for privacy protection in decentralized platforms like the Fediverse. It calls for hosts to implement basic security measures, adopt policies to protect users, and notify them of law enforcement actions. Users are encouraged to...

Rodeo,

In the old days we had Usenet newsgroups, hosted by ISPs … it decentralises power away from a handful of tech billionaires.

And into the hands of the ISPs, which are also owned by billionaires.

Rodeo,

When milk, eggs, flour, and baking powder collide at a significant fraction of the speed of light, what happens?

Rodeo,

Why only 21 inches? Soil temps aren’t stable until like 6 feet down, and then it’s closer to 12 C.

Rodeo,

If you go down deep enough the earth temperature is stable at 12 C. But I’m pretty sure that’s like thousands of feet down. Geothermal rigs drill 500+ meters (1600 feet) down. Having a hard time finding a source on the stable earth temp though.

I mentioned 6 feet because it’s well below the frost line where I am, but I guess in that part of Iran they probably don’t have to worry about that.

Mostly I was just wondering if you had found something on how deep those waterways were actually built.

Rodeo,

See the problem here is you think farming means wheat. Did you know vegetable plants exist?

Rodeo,

I love geany but it’s basically done. The little development that happens is maintenance only. It’s great at what it does now, but don’t expect any new feature (rip LSP)

Rodeo,

Modern vehicles are an absolute nightmare from a right to repair viewpoint. Honestly surprised none of them have pulled a John Deere yet and just started bricking people’s vehicles.

Rodeo,

In Canada the Brick is a furniture and appliance retailer.

“Nobody beats the Brick!”

Rodeo,

install firefox

… I really like aliases.

Rodeo,

Doesn’t happen for me on Jerboa, but I have noticed it doesn’t remember which comments were collapsed, so when I come back to a thread after commenting or reading the link I have to scroll and find my place again.

Rodeo,

“Abode” is just an English word, so they can’t trademark it anyway.

Rodeo,

You can be cool by yourself!

Rodeo,

That’s … now. That’s literally already the case. I rarely find good a good result on the first page anymore.

Rodeo,

You’re going to battling mint for decades to come.

My mom made that same mistake more than 20 years ago. The original plants are long gone but I am still dealing with mint in my garden and just everywhere. It takes over the lawn.

Rodeo,

Mouth cool!

Rodeo,

Not from Ohio, but from what I understand the things to do in Ohio are as follows:

  • Grow corn
  • Grow soy

What type of game do you want to play that doesn't really exist?

Have you ever played a game and wondered what if you could do something that it doesn’t really allow you to do, for example being able to move around blocks in Minecraft fluidly instead of in sectors, edit the world in Hogwarts legacy with spells, be able to fly in a world like Elden Ring or Elder Scrolls with epic sky...

Rodeo,

What the hell is a tiefling, anyway

Rodeo,

So when you get an amber alert do you jump out of bed and start running down the street looking for children?

I didn’t think so.

Rodeo,

I don’t throw myself on the floor wailing and tearing at my clothes

But that’s exactly what you’re doing right now.
