voidMainVoid,

There was an app for MacOS…7? I think. It was called ASCIIPaint, and it allowed you to draw these pictures using a mouse.

voidMainVoid,

Content isn’t the problem. Seriously, read that article. I was 100% pro-federation before I read it. Now I’m 100% against it.

voidMainVoid,

Wouldn’t that depend upon how they’re going to cheat?

voidMainVoid,

I’m voting for Jill Stein or Cornel West. Both are much better choices than Trump or Biden.

voidMainVoid,

You think that Biden was forced into this? Did somebody put a gun to his head? Do you honestly believe that Bernie Sanders would’ve said the same things if he were president?

voidMainVoid,

They pointed out that we on the left may have disagreed with McCain or Bush, but we never once feared that they would seize power or leave NATO.

They were saying all of the same things about W. Bush in 2004.

We trusted them to at least keep the ship afloat and respect the basic tenants of our free and democratic nation.

Not at all. The left viewed W. Bush as a wannabe dictator, not much different from how Trump is viewed now.

voidMainVoid,

Well, it’s very easy for you to make a claim like that, because it’s impossible for me to disprove it, but I find it implausible. For one thing, Trump did a lot of things that people thought were impossible for a president to do.

Again, nobody held a gun to Biden’s head.

voidMainVoid,

Yeah, I wish I had a wife, too.

voidMainVoid,

I love Apocamon. Too bad it never got completed.

voidMainVoid,

Bludsky sounds more awesome, tbh

voidMainVoid,

That genuinely sucks and helps misinformation spread.

I don’t see how. What I think is that it makes a less toxic environment.

voidMainVoid,

Add to that somebody could be genetically “black” and pass as “white”. It isn’t based on DNA; it’s based on perception.

voidMainVoid,

What’s exciting about Plasma 6?

I’m a Plasma user, and I can’t think of anything I want them to change.

Okay, it would be cool if there were more plasmoids. That’s about it.

voidMainVoid,

It’s in the title.

voidMainVoid,

It is also basically impossible to use a wheelchair while holding something in one hand, so if there’s enough magic around to push a wheelchair, there’s probably enough to make your legs work.

First, off the top, you can stop your wheelchair, use your hand(s) for something else, and then start moving again.

Second, you’re making a lot of assumptions about the magic system. Every magic system has limitations. What if healing is a clerical spell, not a magic spell, and there are no clerics around? Maybe the nearest cleric who can heal is many miles away, perhaps over dangerous terrain inhabited by bandits, monsters, etc. Maybe the spell requires some very specific and difficult-to-obtain materials. Or maybe the spell is very high-level, requiring many years to learn, so clerics or mages charge a very high fee for this service. Any of these, or a combination, could be a reason why a disabled person (or a family member on their behalf) is questing.

Maybe the knowledge of the healing magic was held by some ancient civilization and it was lost when that civilization fell, but the disabled character has found a clue to where some ancient ruins could be unearthed where the secret might be found.

Or maybe the GM just says “Yeah, spells can’t do that in this setting.”

voidMainVoid,

The Bill Gates microchip is consensual, too. Nobody is talking about forcing people to get microchips. It’s just that people shit a brick when Gates is involved, but not Musk.

voidMainVoid,

a lot of the shit he said 13 years ago turned out to be right.

Like what?

Listen to the Knowledge Fight podcast which critiques Alex Jones. He’s wrong a lot.

voidMainVoid,

“We Are Farmers” by Riff Raff.

voidMainVoid,

I’ve met plenty of goth women who got married and were good wives. There’s this weird stereotype that says that if you want to get married, you have to marry June Cleaver, and that’s just stupid.

voidMainVoid,

It’s yea or nay. Yes, I know it’s confusing because they rhyme and they’re spelled differently, but that’s how English is sometimes. A lot of the time.

voidMainVoid,

Yes, it is disturbing that asshole was president.

voidMainVoid,

It wasn’t the people who died. It was the fact that the US was attacked by a foreign power.

We can fuck up our own shit fine. But if somebody else is fucking up our shit… then we get salty.

voidMainVoid,

That isn’t true. They’re in the Green Party.

voidMainVoid,

Many people’s political compass is really out of whack, so that they think that supporting Bernie Sanders makes you far left.

I’m not really sure that supporting Russia or China makes you a leftist, though, because those are right-wing dictatorships.

voidMainVoid,

Well, yeah, that is one of the interpretations.

voidMainVoid,

Being against apartheid is not a “far left” position.

voidMainVoid,

I think the reason why people in the US care about this genocide (and not others) is because the US is funding it so hard.

voidMainVoid,

People in the US are concerned about this genocide because we’re paying for it. The US sends Israel billions of dollars every year. This is our tax dollars at work.

voidMainVoid,

As a rule of thumb, if my computer is working without any problems, I’ll just ignore warnings and errors that show up during boot or shutdown.

voidMainVoid,

Garuda is a great Arch distro which is gaming-focused. I do some coding, and it works fine for that, too, but I actually don’t know which distros are better for that than others.

On the other hand, Garuda also does things a bit differently than other distros, so I don’t know if it would be good for somebody new to Linux. I recommend checking out some videos on YouTube just to see what it looks like.

voidMainVoid,

Of course! If you aren’t getting laid, it’s clearly because you’re a terrible person.

voidMainVoid,

This argument is strange to me, because super-wealthy people don’t pollute just because they can. They do it because it’s profitable…and it’s profitable because people buy their products.

voidMainVoid,

I agree with socialism, but I disagree with how many socialists think it’s a panacea to everything bad about society.

Pollution? Socialism.

Racism? Socialism.

Sexism? Socialism.

Homophobia? Socialism.

I’ve never yet heard a plan for converting a capitalist country, any capitalist country, to socialism. Yet we’re supposed to abandon whatever cause we’re fighting for and instead bang the drum for socialism, because that will solve everything.

voidMainVoid,

I miss the days when I thought “Elon Musk” was a fancy French perfume.

voidMainVoid,

Every source I can find says that closing the lid is better.

voidMainVoid,

Every source I could find says that closing the lid is better.

voidMainVoid,

That word “feasible” is doing a lot of work. No doubt the politician I want to vote for won’t be “feasible” for some reason, and the one you want me to vote for is.

voidMainVoid,

I voted for Bernie. Twice.

voidMainVoid,

When it started to look like Bernie was going to win, the Dems went into a tailspin. It was a real mask-off moment.

voidMainVoid,

Another cool thing is Ventoy. Install it to a thumb drive with a bunch of different distro ISOs, and you try out all kinds of flavors of Linux with installing them.

voidMainVoid,

See, people around Mastodon keep saying “everybody is nice, like in the early Internet”, and my memory of the Internet is full of drive-by porn and gore, weird political takes, illegible websites and malware.

People looking at the past through rose-colored glasses? You don’t say.

Yeah, the early Web was ass. No Wikipedia, no Internet Archive…oh, and it took forever to download anything.
