You’re talking crazy it’s only 2005 bro, futuristic computer interface means frutiger aero, I listen to music on my iPod and text on my candybar flip phone </3</3
Paradox of Tolerance - Karl Poppler - 1945
It’s a shame that something we already figured out 60 years ago still needs to be learned by most people.
The good news is, this is an opportunity for you to grow and be better right now. It’s never too late to improve yourself.
Next step is an AI that detects AI labyrinth.
It gets trained on labyrinths generated by another AI.
So you have an AI generating labyrinths to train an AI to detect labyrinths which are generated by another AI so that your original AI crawler doesn’t get lost.
It’s gonna be AI all the way down.
There’s plenty of dialogue suppression, what I’m saying it that I suspect it’s suppressing the dialogue you want suppressed.
“open dialogue”? I’m gonna have to assume you mean some instances will censor you for criticizing Russia, because the right-wing translation of “free speech” is “when my speech is free and yours isn’t”.

So, how is everyone enjoying this new age of peace and prosperity that only The Chosen One could bring us.
From there, they could extract concessions from Democrats in exchange for not running. Or run.
Ngl this is kind of a great idea. It’s certainly better than what the green party is doing right now.
This does assume the green party will let someone beat Jill Stein. Also IMHO it’s a mistake to always go right for the presidency when there should be a focus on local and municipal movements.
But it would be nice to see leftists finally get a win in something.
You’re a bit weird, I’m still not talking about Democrats, I’m talking about leftists.
What can leftists do to get a win?
Voting gets so much attention not because it’s super effective, but because it’s super easy. It’s the absolute most efficient change/effort available to us.
Everyone should vote, just as a first step. Even if you don’t like DvR there are third parties, write-ins, plus there is municipal and local voting, and issues you can vote on directly on the ballot.
And then after you’re done voting, get involved in your local community.
If you’re a defeatist/“enlightened centrist”, you are a part of the system of oppression.
No, he asked for a next step. Because leftists can’t get a win.
It’s always the same game, vehemently disavow the thing you’re about to do, right up until the moment you do it.
MAGA disavowed Project 2025, right until the minute that Trump won, surprise! They were Project 2025 all along.
Putin disavowed an invasion of Ukraine, he was just running some training exercises, right up to the minute he started the invasion.
Nazis will disavow genocide even while they’re building the concentration camps.
This is the way
Zuckerberg said on Joe Rogan that he wants more “masculine energy workplace”, where the leaders “celebrate aggression a bit more”. Makes sense he was talking about executive boots all over office worker faces.
If your last time using Linux was 10 years ago you’re going to be SO PLEASED at how good it is now.
Because under the hood x11 code is such a hacky mess the developers found it easier to start from scratch than add new features like HDR and VRR to x11.
If new features don’t matter to you, there’s still plenty of distros and DE’s and WM’s that ship x11 and will continue for a very long time.
Diaspora is the fediverse version of Facebook. It hasn’t taken off quite like lemmy or mastodon and it’s much older, but still seems to be in active development.
Convincing family is hard, I have a lot of them moved over to Linux already, but they don’t want to quit Facebook :(
This is such a looooong shot, a more realistic plan would be to play the Powerball to win and use your winnings to fund open source programs into matching feature set.
Which is also wildly unlikely, but just a little more likely to happen.
