This depends entirely on your prescribed system of ethics.

Duty-based ethical systems would say yes, because you have a duty to speak out.

Point utilitarianism would say no, because the good outweighs the bad for that scenario.

The other utilitarianism of which I can’t remember the umbrella term would say yes, because it’s better for everyone if people speak out.

My understanding of Kant is that the unethical act is being performed by the government and that it is not morally wrong to keep a low profile.

TLDR: If you’re asking, the answer is no. If you’re being pedantic, the answer is “it depends”

You can also just gentoo and compile from source instead of remembering which distro uses which package lol

Docker: it’s a container used as a sort of sandbox environment for running various tools

Federated: uses the activitypub protocol

Self host: Don’t use services in the cloud. Build your own

Fork: Derived from existing project (or process)

Container: Sandboxed part of your OS

Instance: There are multiple definitions but the one probably most relevant to you is a node of a federated network

Flatpak: No idea. I think this is Ubuntu’s containerized deliverable

Tailscale: I think this is a reverse proxy?

Distro: A flavor of Linux

Wayland: Succesor to X11. Gives you graphics on Linux

Nginx: Web server software. Alternative to Apache

You start with $20 so it’s really

Why is it vaguely pink

But think of the shareholder value lost if we invest in that!

Darn. Technically right. My favorite kind of right

I really don't like the design of the progress pride flag, and I couldn't really put my finger on it until I saw this: https://nava.org/good-flag-bad-flag

For reference, here is the flag I'm referencing as "bad flag":

And here is the original:

So, the original has too many colors, but it's the colors of the rainbow. In order. It's recognizable from really far away, and it's dead simple to draw.

With the Intersex flag, that's 14 colors. There are three shades of "purple". The circle won't be visible from far away. The chevrons are too thin to be very recognizable from far away.

It's not like there aren't good pride flags. Like there are AMAZING ones:

Edit:

In case you don't know what these are: https://flagsforgood.com/collections/pride-flags

Budget VPS (lemmy.ca)
submitted 3 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hi all, I was browsing Madeinca.ca and realized that “web hosting” for me means VPS but means “here’s a Wordpress instance” to others.

I’m looking to host a basically nothing website - I just need to separate from my critical infrastructure. I see that Storm Web is $20/mo but I’m looking for $10 or under.

Any budget VPS recommendations?

Pixelfed (lemmy.ca)

Does Lemmy.ca/fedecan.ca also own pixelfed.ca?

If so, can someone answer if it's possible to have a private account that does NOT federate your data?

Hi,

American looking to move my domains to somewhere more stable. I found some alternatives on Google, but I worry they are basically GoDaddy.

Any suggestions for domain registrars?

Is there a friendly alternative to VMWare/Virtualbox? I would move back to Virtualbox, but it's now owned by oracle

I can’t help but think that cars (EV included) just aren’t the answer. I feel like bikes aren’t the answer either. I feel like the metro and high speed rail are.

Most people don’t drive because they like driving (US), most people drive because they have to. And that sucks. You shouldn’t feel like you’re forced to drive. Because that’s auto insurance and auto registration that you have to pay.

You can’t eliminate roads altogether. You need at least one or two lanes for fire trucks, ambulances, garbage trucks, etc. but you can create pockets of no car zones.

People like me who like cars, should be able to have places we store our cars. We should have places where we can explore the limits of our cars instead of driving through traffic. But that should be a strictly extracurricular activity.

In the no car pockets, you should be able to walk to a grocery store, hardware store, that has what you need. You should be able to have mixed zoning. Single family units shouldn’t be the norm. If I own a car but it’s not my dedicated form of transportation, I can buy a cooler car and I don’t need a garage next to where I live to store it. I can store it outside no car pockets so that I can take public transport to my car and then take my car to the track.

Yes, it’ll take awhile to get there but why aren’t we doing more to that end? Am I too idealistic?

I’ve seen:

  • .ml
  • .social
  • .world
  • .cuz

Is it due to cheaper registration and/or renewal fees? Or are there simply more availability on those TLDs?

I have accidentally upvoted two things that I did not intend. I don’t intend to ever swipe to upvote - but I would like to swipe to go back. Is there anyway to make the swipe to upvote a choice?
