It was also a really good and safe space for discussing trans stuff

“Solidarity” is a four letter word for some people

“Look, is it even really work saving the planet if I don’t get to create a market and show everybody else how much smarter I am than them?” - liberals (actually)

Like - damn CestUnPeuSorcier finally saw Savannah get her master’s good for them

Yeah, the fact that DOJ will apparently never ever bring charges against him for all the illegal stuff he did while in office because they really want the President/their boss to be above the law shows pretty conclusively that they don’t really want to reckon with any of the deeper problems Trump’s administration demonstrated we have

So, while they make a big show out of going after him for things he did as a former president and dumbass January 6 rednecks, we’re still just at risk of a wannabe dictator becoming President and using the unconstrained powers of that office to pursue personal and ideological vendettas and enrich themselves by funneling taxpayer money into their own pockets and selling US policy off to the highest bidders

“Cops are the first line of defense for business owners and employers, so I think it makes sense for labor to be opposed to Cop City.”

Yep, when a worker is accused of taking a few dollars out of the till the cops show up right quick, but where are they at when your boss commits wage theft by demanding you punch out early?

Huh, looks like I am running 0.0.32 already unfortunately

Ah, sure, that makes sense. Thanks for taking the time to explain your thinking!

Nice, thanks! I’ve never had/made the time to learn any kind of programming, but anyone who does open source work is right up there with teachers librarians and firefighters in my book of “people I’m predisposed towards liking” (honestly more of a pamphlet than a book)

Anyway, speaking as someone who doesn’t know much about any of this yet, where is that at in the development process? I’m guessing people send code ideas to dessalines/their team, the code is reviewed and approved by them, and then it’s sent off to the Google people for a review before it gets to the play store? I’m not in any kind of rush for this fix, so I’m just curious if it’ll get to me eventually on its own or if I will have to have a bit more initiative (sideloading apps is on my list of “things I really should have figured out by now” (honestly more of a book than a list))

The guy making that tweet does not appear to be a journalist, and for the source for this he linked to this article on Just the News, who I’ve never heard of before and, based on another article from the same author on their home page that looks like it’s trying to spin a lot of evidence free allegations about Biden being involved in a bribery scheme with Ukraine as evidence that Biden actually was involved in a bribery scheme with Ukraine, does not seem like a good source

The Independent is a solid publication with a good track record of truth telling though, so I don’t doubt this story (and thank you for posting it!), but these links look like some grifters trying to legitimize themselves by hopping on to a real news story while it’s hot

Hell yeah, I’ll never not be mad that our garbage justice system let him skate for this long, but it’s great to see he’s getting one step closer to the jail/prison cell where he belongs (though I’m just going to get mad all over again when they give him lenient bail; also, where’s the felony murder charge for pushing a violent coup that was the proximate cause of multiple deaths?).

Honestly, biggest surprise for me is seeing the Independent of all places get this scoop. They’re a fine publication, but they’re pretty U.K. based and not even as big as something like the Guardian, and normally when anything leaks out of DC circles it goes to NYT WaPo or PBS/NPR, so it’s weird to see them get this news.

Ah, that explains it, I’m running the AMOLED theme on Jerboa, but doing dark mode at the OS level (android 13 with one UI 5.1 also, btw) breaks a Galaxy Theme I’ve been using for a long time and really love, so I just go piecemeal app by app turning each of them to their dark modes, but sometimes that produces weird/unintended interactions like this one

At the moment it doesn’t look like anyone else has had this issue, I need to make a new GitHub account to make a post there but I’ll try to remember to do that later when I have a moment

Kind of spendy and maybe too absorbing, but I’ve found that the Android version of Dead Cells is a great way to kill anywhere from a little to a lot of time and the touch screen controls work surprisingly well (tho you’re definitely going to want a controller for any of the higher difficulty runs)

If that AI isn’t open source, it will start spreading nasty rumors about you and making plans with your friends without inviting you unless you pay $14.99 per month and upgrade your “friend” level account to the “good friend” level (“best friend” accounts will refuse to talk to law enforcement about you and pretend to be various references on your resume for job interviewers)

I actually don’t have very strong feelings about gun control (like, it might help prevent some mass shootings and gun violence, but it’s a really imperfect tool that relies way too much on cops not being bigoted assholes who enforce things selectively), but the notion that lying about your food stamp eligibility constitutes a “serious crime” is outrageous

And he isn’t the only one talking about criminal charges for these things, but I’ve been watching Republicans commit blatant crimes and face zero consequences my whole life, so I’ll believe it when I see it

Bear in mind, this federal monitor was put in place at first exactly because NYV was stopping and frisking people illegally

No accountability and nothing changes but the names for the illegal programs

Edit; related article I just stumbled across, “What Happened When a Brooklyn Neighborhood Policed Itself for Five Days”

Ha, only because I wasn’t using it. Thanks for pointing it out to me, just played around with it a bit and that’s exactly what I wanted.

So I do! Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for
