BREAKING NEWS 🚨🚨🚨

Citing four Russian sources: Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to stop the war in Ukraine with a negotiated ceasefire recognizing the current battle lines.

Is this anything new? Putin gets rewarded for his land grab, rebuilds, then tries again in a few years?

What are your thoughts?

@Free_Press I think we should send Ukraine a lot more weapons a lot faster and keep doing it until all Ukraine is free

#FunFactFriday: Research shows that installed solar and wind capacity is set to reach 31TW by 2050, achieved through production methods such as green hydrogen and offshore wind. Do you think we can achieve the battery storage capacity to match this? News Source: https://www.pv-tech.org/bnef-solar-and-wind-capacity-to-reach-31tw-in-2050/

I am in fact pretty concerned that shit's gonna hit the fan between now and the election, and between the low-information, single issues voters, the low-information, somehow forgot how fucking dumb and shitty the Trump years were voters, and then whatever bad shit (like avian flu) hits the fan, we're gonna get Trump again and then everything is gonna be proper fucked.

My feed is full of lefties this morning who are:

  1. claiming there is no major constituency in the Democratic party who is pro Israel (there is. They're wrong, but they're there, and unlike the lefties and protestor kids, they vote CONSISTENTLY, not when you find the magic single issue of the moment, so they have to be heard)
  2. literally using Biden doing popular things that the oligarchs don't like (student debt relief) to complain about. .. Biden not doing popular things to get elected

But this also feels like Dad buying you a swingset while the house is on fire.

@andrew yeah what exactly is your problem here?

Goddamn everything Biden does is proof that doing popular things that are also good for people gets you precisely no credit or appreciation. That whole theory can be flushed.

"Just use Linux" is much like "just ride a bike" or "just shop at a refill store" - accessing the non default option can be time consuming, expensive or unavailable locally. We need to recognise you need a certain degree of privilege to have the capacity to complicate your life voluntarily. We need to be trying to make the better, harder thing more accessible, not blaming people for not using it.

qkslvrwolf,
@qkslvrwolf@mastodon.social avatar

@afewbugs I would never say "just" use linux, but the several people I've gotten use use linux do, in fact, find it easier. Part of that is I'm there to get them over the hump, and part of the fact it is significantly easier for me to help them with any issues when they're on linux than windows or mac, as I am the family/friends IT guy and I haven't used either of those platforms in decades.

However, there is an insurmountable culture of "cool-to-think-a-thing-is-hard" and it has hit linux.

Though not serving as Trump’s attorney when he appeared as a witness today in Trump’s trial for criminally falsifying business records, Robert Costello is a lawyer, bound by New York’s Rules of Professional Conduct. Costello repeatedly showed his ethical unfitness, violating the most basic principles that inform the entire code. I’ve screenshot the very first paragraph of the entire code, highlighting the most pertinent phrases. 1/

@nf3xn yeah I'd argue right now it's the clearest it's been since Calvin stopped running why we have armies.

To stop madmen like Putin, Kim, Bibi, probably xi, and trump from murdering whole nations.

Obviously having armies comes with risks. Much of the Democratic world was unilaterally disarming, though, too soon, and now we're paying the price.

remember when trump said if we just stop testing for covid it would go away as if by a miracle and everyone thought that was a scandalously stupid thing to say

on an entirely unrelated note since 3 weeks ago the CDC no longer requires hospitals to report covid hospitalizations and now biobot is no longer showing covid wastewater data for the US

qkslvrwolf,
@qkslvrwolf@mastodon.social avatar

@JTO_is_Typing Unfortunately, biobot had like 3 sample sites in my county and the replacements have 0.

The nearest sample sites are 110 miles away. Totally useless for me.
