It's kinda a weird take? Like if I'm in a discussion about some scary things AfD are doing and a left-of-center German joins the conversation, I'd like to think I'd have the ability to...you know...hear what they have to say about things.
There are a bunch of Americans who asked for this; there are a bunch who stood by and did nothing to stop it; and there are a bunch who tried to stop it, did not, and are devastated.
I guess at the end of the day it's just a meme.
I think there are examples of projects getting criticized for not recreating the corposhit. Take GIMP
sure some folks really like it, but there are huge swaths of people who basically just say, "why doesn't it work like Photoshop?!" and get very frustrated with its different approach.
Personally, I like Google Photos
the interface, not the product
so when Immich came along and basically cloned it, I was really happy (I think Immich is fantastic, and at this point calling it a Photos clone is kinda offensive tbh
it's way cool).
Some corposhit just sucks, yeah, but some is actually well thought out
no shame in taking the concept and running with it, IMHO.
Someone described respectful ways of interacting with children similarly
you can bring yourself down to their level, or you can bring them up to yours. Both are respectful, and there's no "talking down" to anyone.
It's a matter of perspective and use
high density one place means you can have open space somewhere else, for a given amount of land.
I'd much prefer a few large dense housing complexes, surrounded by green space, than suburban sprawl.
Reminds me of that West Wing episode where he "accidentally" makes an offensive gun analogy comment; Harris doesn't really alienate any supporters here, and she appeals to the undecided gun crowd voters. As a bonus, she's "telling it like it is" for folks who are self-described as being "fed up with PC culture."
As much as I think a "would you like to have a beer with the candidates?" is a stupid way of measuring things...I wouldn't mind having a beer with these candidates.
How about we give parents one extra vote per child.
But they have to wait 18 years to use it.
And they can't directly use it, it's more that they get a delegate of sorts.
And this delegate
let's call them, I dunno, ~~their kid~~ "offspring voter"
isn't legally bound to vote one way or another.
And how about this person votes in a manner that in some way reflects how they were raised, and their worldy experiences
possibly voting exactly as the parents would, or possibly exactly opposite, or anywhere in between.
A French court has ordered Google, Cloudflare, and Cisco to poison their DNS resolvers...
I like the sentiment, but there are non-peer reviewed papers that are real science. Politics and funding are real things, and there is a bit of gatekeeping here, which isn't really good IMHO.
Also, reproducibility is a sticky subject, especially with immoral experiments (which can still be the product of science, however unsavory), or experiments for which there are only one apparatus in the world (e.g., some particle physics).
One of the real downsides of ARM is, it seems, the relative lack of standardization. An x64 kernel? It'll run on most anything from the last ten years at least. And as for boot process, it's probably one of two options (and in many cases one computer can boot either legacy or EFI).
ARM, on the other hand...my raspberry pi collection does one thing, my Orange Pi does something else, and God help you if you want to try swapping the Orange kernel for the Raspberry (or vice versa)!
Have a kid...
Look, if you don't want to listen to some random dude who thinks reading is cool, fair enough. But if that random dude also runs level three diagnostics on the warp core and can swap polarity on the main deflector dish with one hand tied behind his back? Yeah...you should probably pay attention.
