What happens when someone is chronically off and on starving for months, constantly stressed, and then all of the sudden you give them $300 for groceries? They buy sushi and iced tea and strawberries and other dumb shit and blow it in a week....

This is legit. Turns out you need basic sustenance to be able to plan properly. Hope you’re getting some help. I don’t have much but I’m gonna try and send something after work.
In 1992, 15 million Czechoslovakians were genocided through the peaceful dissolution of their state. Because that’s what genocide means. When your state is peacefully disbanded and no one dies or is culturally repressed....
I realize that, after all this time, I have never payed for my all-time favorite games I grew up playing (Fallout 3 & Skyrim). I can pay for it, but I really do not want to pay the money to the Bethesda’s marketing team, CEO, and whoever bullshit middle man who wants a cut of that. I want to give directly to the team that made...
This is what buying from coop developers is like. You know that everyone involved has agreed that everyone else is essential to the creation of the game and that everyone receives a cut in one way or another.
Legit, if you want to know if a conspiracy is true, just wait 20-50 years and the CIA will declassify the related documents. Most of them are open secrets that happen to be difficult to corroborate as they’re happening. Very few rely on outright secrecy. More just plausible deniability during the period where the public would be up in arms about it.
You can’t control how people react to you, unfortunately. This has been my mantra for about a year now and it’s incredible how much I’ve caught myself attempting the Sisyphean task of taking control over how people perceive me and react to that perception. There’s no point in wrestling people into communicating with you properly. It usually just results in anxiety or in you accidentally communicating extra information that you didn’t intend.
I ask what people know about a topic before I start. Most people don’t like being put on the spot to prove their knowledge about a random topic, but it seems to work better and be more engaging than just assuming they do or don’t know and dumping accordingly.
Just copy paste some of the shot and chaser Tweets from the chuds who volunteered to go fight in Ukraine and then started crying when it came time to find out. Basically the same as the bright eyed guys who thought they’d be dying valiantly in bayonet charges and ended up doing trench warfare.
Unfortunately, ActivityPub isn’t really designed to scale in a way that a Discord alternative would require. The intended behavior for federation isn’t clear either. Matrix is already a mature federated chat server with dozens of clients including an official one. Building a Discord clone client for it would be a lot easier than rolling a whole new custom server.
Im being serious. The left needs to embrace a “do as I say not as a do” attitude towards our leaders, with great power comes a large amount of treats and who are we to judge Hasan for not living up to the ideals that he sets out for us. In fact I think its good that he doesnt do what he says, it means you are willing to...
Post: Hasan drank coke products, which he’s previously promoted a boycott of. Here’s a clip of him promoting the boycott. Here’s a clip of him drinking coke.
Wow thanks OP that was so informative I appreciate you shedding light on this definitely very important issue with linked receipts. Very good and normal response that makes me believe you.
I can’t imagine just opening a giant PR without having extensive contact and coordination with the maintainer. Almost any amount of incremental safe steps would be preferable to a giant PR, even with extensive communication. I once introduced fully strict typescript into a vanilla js codebase and it took dozens of small PRs to do so. It was made more complicated by the fact that it was a library, but still. The communication made the entire process smooth and let everyone be confident the changes were correct along the way. If I’d done it all at once without any coordination, it would have been faster for me, but at the cost of the maintainer’s sanity and time.
When a person of color, especially if they’re black like me, affirms their support for causes such as queer liberation, feminism, animal rights, or socialism, I immediately feel that I can believe, with minimal doubt, that they’re truly convicted and principled in what they’re advocating for....
As someone who doesn’t game too much, it’s been incredible to watch this particular game go through the ups and downs of immense hype, a disappointing launch, and finally this redemption arc it’s been on. I don’t feel like that happens very often.

Please do not approach Hasan IRL and criticize him for breaking the boycotts he promotes, leftist thought leaders are allowed to be hypocrites and consume whatever treats they want.
