Stop normalizing that you need to go find an alternative to a FOSS project the very hecking moment it goes into maintenance mode/read-only/archival.

Good gods people are already going "Neofetch is dead what's the alternative". It still works fine!

Normalize the idea that software can be "finished" and not be updated until a major feature shortfall or security issue arises, then someone can fork it. Or fork it now, I'm not your mom, but the original is still okay.

Actively finding more and more reason why capitalism is actively detrimental to modern society

It's not only what it is actively doing to everyone, making us miserable, but the SHEER AMOUNT of human social progress it is actually holding back, is ungodly

I had an idea of what it was, but holy Jesus fuck, I'm getting my history perception checked rn

For no obvious reason whatsoever, AmiTCP (a third party port port of the BSD IP stack to AmigaOS that was used a bunch) enabled the chargen service (a service that just sends printable ASCII characters as fast as possible) and had no firewall so back in the 90s you could just DoS Amiga users by connecting to port 19 on their machine and they'd saturate their uplink and ping out of IRC and not everything in the past was better

They're the same picture

"They're outside agitators!"

I mean no they're not, but honestly who fucking cares anyway? The mainstream establishment position is *seriously* "protesting against genocide is invalid because your parents, friends, and old school hippies showed up on campus to support you?" And we're taking that seriously?

"They're outside agitators" is a distraction from the subject at hand; a genocide against Gazans supported by that very same establishment in America.

speaking as a jew, it’s not antisemitic to call for the end of a genocide. it is antisemitic to use accusations of antisemitism as a cover for carrying out genocide

Does anyone have pointers for remote job for one of the following positions in the EU:

• Junior Developer (Rust; but i have varying levels of experience in a number of other programming languages like Python, Java, C++, Haskell, Typescript)
• Junior Embedded Developer (Rust, although I have some amount of C experience)
• Junior System Administrator (Linux, specifically NixOS and some other enthusiast linux distributions)

I am currently a 6th semester IT Uni student, and as such do not have a degree.

I have several years of personal experience with these positions

boosts appreciated!

"Before I introduced a screen time limit, there was too much watching of YouTube. We need rules!"

Idk, mate. Have you considered that screen time issues are related to the lack of spaces for kids and teens to do things? Because most kids I work with would love to have something to do that isn't "go to the mall and wander aimlessly every weekend," which is all they've got other than their phones or whatever.

These spaces were disappearing when *I* was a kid, and I'm almost 40. Hell, even as an adult, there aren't many places for me to go because they all fucking cost money just to find a "community." Not to mention how uncomfortable they all are.

You can change behaviours by creating a world where kids and teens can freely exist and stop ostracising them from society, among many other things.

Dear god, I feel like I need to shout this from the rooftops because every time I mention it in passing, it feels like someone's jaw drops in astonishment:

YOU CAN HAVE BOTH A PENIS AND A VAGINA! IT'S CALLED A PENIS-PRESERVING VAGINOPLASTY (if you're AMAB) OR A VAGINA-PRESERVING PHALLOPLASTY/METOIDIOPLASTY (if you're AFAB)!

YOU CAN HAVE BOTH! YOU'RE ALLOWED TO HAVE BOTH!

It's so frustrating to see Microsoft copy inventions from the Linux world and act like they're new. Ads in the start menu? Come on, we had that in Ubuntu back in 2012 already, you're late to the party *again*.
