This apology is empty if it doesn’t contain assurances that it won’t happen again.

Bookmeat,

Whoosh!

That’s literally the point: he can’t. His apology is useless.

The point of an apology is to acknowledge a mistake and signal that you will attempt to change your behaviour to prevent or avoid that mistake in the future.

A really good apology will also identify the steps that will be taken to avoid the mistake going forward.

I argue that if you don’t or can’t make an attempt to change your behaviour, your apology has no meaning. That is, the apology is not sincere and therefore not useful.

Bookmeat,

Everyone on this thread, to date, is a monument to failure. Specifically, to reading comprehension.

Bookmeat,

The term "degrowth" as political suicide?

I am a degrowther, but people keep telling me it’s hard to create media communications campaigns for degrowth and that advocating for it is “political suicide.” As if endless cancerous growth isn’t political suicide already. I’m told people want growth and we should use a different name for degrowth and that we should...

Bookmeat,

I think people try to reframe degrowth as balance and sustainability in order to avoid political seppuku.

Bookmeat,

But we were BEST FRIENDS! How could YOU do this to ME!?

Bookmeat,

Capitalism: the pursuit of finding ways to ruin a perfectly good thing.

Bookmeat,

No one mentioned communism.

Bookmeat,

They took away the ability to set alarms through the mic icon. The most useful feature for me.

Bookmeat,

When you stop growing you start dying.

Too political to be a politician… SMH

What tips or resources would you recommend to someone who knows about Linux and wants to self-host, but has no experience self-hosting?

I have several years of Linux experience and I know how to fix my own problems, and I have experience self-hosting using Docker and Docker Compose, but I really feel that I don’t know how to self-host and that I just copy and paste commands without understanding it, I would really like to learn how to self-host by myself but I...

Start with a simple, basic service. Think of something like a web server or ntp. Understand how these services affect your environment with respect to security, performance, availability, maintenance, backups, other services, firewalls, routing, DNS, monitoring and notification, documentation, change control, etc. Those are the hard parts of hosting and if you find ways to be effective with a simple service the others will be less daunting.

Bookmeat,

I think it triggers a sort of relation and familiarity with what’s on the screen. It helps people project their id into the sex act and feel arousal more easily.

Bookmeat,

This isn’t antagonism, this message isn’t for Trump. It’s an effort to strengthen his allies, set the stage, and focus their initiative should trump become re-elected.

I’m not sure whether my neighbours of 5 years will be upset and at this point I’m too afraid to find out.

Is cloudflare breaking the internet or fixing it?

I am a plebe who doesn’t understand these things but what exactly does cloudflare do? I see it popping up more and more often redirecting before visiting a site. I assume that this has something to do with bot traffic? It seems like every mention of cloudflare is about how it ruined someone’s day.

Bookmeat,

It’s not because of smr, it’s just that all large projects have this level of corruption and grift.

Bookmeat,

This game looks cool. I wish other people would play it so the devs get paid :)

Bookmeat,

Deal with it like you do with all unwanted institutions. Kill their budget and see how long before they’re willing to talk.

    This doesn’t make sense in light of a recent article claiming he’s eyeing Musk in an advisory role should be be reelected.

    State Department official resigns after Biden administration says Israel not blocking Gaza aid (www.middleeasteye.net)

    A career State Department official resigned from her post on Tuesday, saying she could no longer work for the Biden administration after it released a report concluding that Israel was not preventing the flow of aid to Gaza....

    Bookmeat,

    Biden is part of the old boys club where all the monied interests hang out. If you think AOC will get their support you’re not thinking of the current USA. Politics in USA is owned by corporations and I haven’t seen her back corps, why would they back her?

    Bookmeat,

    It’s strange that the founding fathers of the USA were mostly in their 20s at the time of the founding, but you can’t be a POTUS until you’re over 35(?) now.

    Bookmeat,

    I remember this, but Bernie failed to get his own party to support him as a candidate, is that not so?
