The reason many conservatives don’t like socialism is because the wrong sort of people will get nice things. That’s it. If white people benefit then it’s cool.

They are bad people by any reasonable metric.

I think something is just wrong with some people’s brains where they go with in-group solidarity no matter what. Overrides almost any amount of logic and reason

Maybe he’s a magical pinata and if we hit him money will come out.

Incels don’t typically like real women. They live in a fantasy/nightmare world.

That’s pretty typical of the US justice system. You can be falsely accused of something, spend a bunch of time with lawyers and bad press, and then they can just drop it. You don’t get compensated.

They should have had cross play with windows from the start. Fuck Microsoft.

I would recommend the invite tracking. Keep track of who invites bad actors, even higher order. If your friend’s friends suck, that should reflect a little on you. If no one has vouched for you, then you’re less trusted.

One recurring problem is there are a lot of people who don’t really want democracy. They want hierarchy. Many of them don’t need to be at the top, so long as there are people below them.

It’s conservatives. Conservatives are the problem.

I leave my PR in draft until the checks pass. I don’t want anyone reviewing it when it’s broken.

Market the company and, for smaller companies that want funding, beg and network.

Leadership is often removed from how work actually gets done. This is part of why they often make bonkers decisions.

They don’t understand that most of the time isn’t going into typing code into the computer. It’s figuring out what the product guy and CEO actually want. It’s pulling answers out of them (eg: what do you want to do if the user’s name is null?) or dealing with it when they don’t like your decision (eg: you didn’t say what to do when I don’t have their name, so the email just says “hey”. I really don’t think this is a crisis)

I’m doing my part by avoiding microsoft products as much as possible. I don’t care if they make an amazing new Fallout game (they won’t). Fuck them.

“request desktop site” usually gets rid of the app nag.

I never post there anymore but there’s a lot of useful stuff from the old days.

Many executives are also board members.

This doesn’t even seem to be front page news. The us is desensitized to mass murder.

I’ve only visited Montreal twice, but both times everyone was super nice. (My baseline is NYC)

I think some people band wagon jumped onto the Simpsons bit about cheese eating surrender monkeys, and some Republicans followed their crowd during the bush era.

For most people I just read it as a “look at me I’m part of the in-group” sad pandering, like when people would repeat “EPIC BACON” or other low grade memes. They just want to feel like part of the group.

Every Republican administration makes things worse. Yet there are so many idiots (of various kinds!) that vote for them anyway.

My old boss is from Iran. Like, family still lives there. He voted for trump “to unlock the economy”. He also laughed at ICE kidnapping people. That fucking moron. That cruel sack of shit. The only way it could be more leopards ate his face is if ICE kidnapped him too.

But he’s still chugging along as CEO, living large on his rich father’s money and VC capital.

Paywall, but going by the headline: good

The world is burning and these assholes are making it worse.

Something like that should be required for all drivers

Cool. Fuck Microsoft

We should make trump ride a bike. Up one of those busy streets with a painted lane and double parked cars.
