And the creature ABSOLUTELY has a social agenda. I'm glad Mastodon as a platform, and on the whole, filters these kind of people out since you have to think and make logical choices to get started.

@Pantangelini

@Pantangelini You sound like you absolutely have a social agenda.

@deadbeef That's cool. Anything said it text normally comes out far harsher than intended. Right now I'm sitting on Kaspersky wishing I didn't have years of pre-paid to go, but I'm not clear on what I'd switch *TO*. All of them seem to offer something to passionately hate.

@icedquinn @freemo I understand that, and regret or not, there are those insisting "freedom of speech" is "license to destroy lives with lies for money." Whichever way this thing boils over, and I'm sure it will, the only one who wins is the most brutal thug left standing, and that ain't me.

@deadbeef @freemo

While I wouldn't necessarily disagree with you I note the following:

1) It isn't my PC or my Norton. I'm not using it. The friend considering joining is.

2) Before I tell anyone I'm trying to help to "switch brands of PC protection," I'd want to exhaust all other possibilities. I'm not selling Anti-malware, I'm trying to help someone.

3) In this particular instance, it isn't Norton, it's other issues being currently discussed in the thread.

@freemo

All too often, "Free Speech" = "Freedom to yell fire in a theater," which is explicitly forbidden within the US despite the knuckleheads that don't seem to grasp the difference.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_S

"Fighting Words" & "False Statements of Fact" among "forbidden free speech."

@pj @freemo Power attracts the corruptible. Power attracts the people who behave this way. So that noisy 20% tend to dominate the other 80% any way they can. And right now that limited number of individuals are trying to kill off qoto.org which, to me, seems the most sane in this mess simply for not being sufficiently "Antifa" or "woke" or whatever the buzz-word of the week is.

@pj @freemo In other words... people! Nah, I get what you are saying. From the practical perspective of following the evidence, how is one to tell the difference between a flat-earther, a Trump Supporter, and the tribalism evident in "if you don't 100% agree with me and do as I say, you are the enemy?"

@freemo For some strange reason, people always seem to act like people.

I support the evidence. From what I can see, @freemo has the evidence, and the group that claims to be entirely different from MAGA doesn't really appear all that much different with respect to clinging to hate and denying facts.

Whenever I think maybe I'm being just a bit too dark and cynical about humanity, I have these kinds of incidences to remind me I just need to lower my expectations.

🎓 Doc Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱  
funny how this guy accuses me of harassment and doesnt bother to actually give a screenshot or a post... either way I do feel deeply sadened he fee...

So... because of twitter.com/MojangStatus/statu which is *not* actually fixed, I'm using Bedrock Edition to connect to the Java server using GeyserMC.

Ugh!

funny how this guy accuses me of harassment and doesnt bother to actually give a screenshot or a post... either way I do feel deeply sadened he feels this way and apologize.

That said I went through my entire search history, literally every interaction I ever had with him. Literally all of it is overwhelming examples of me supporting him and being nice and doing everything I could to be kind and welcoming to him... not one exmaple of nastiness. Here are tthe examples:

qoto.org/@freemo/1036119274149

qoto.org/@freemo/1038756354553

qoto.org/@freemo/1035404758126

qoto.org/@freemo/1037552993049

qoto.org/@freemo/1038952887859

qoto.org/@freemo/1036873716109

I could literally list 100 more positive interactions of me reaching out trying to be nice and supportive and cant find a single one of me "attacking" him.

No reports, no issues of harassment, just me flooding him with niceness and one day I find us blocked.

a pup of coffee :bowie:

It's easier to smack down an instance you are kinda jealous of rather than bother with things like checking facts so long as you have an excuse to do so. God forbid anyone get confused with the facts.

@ThereGoesBill@zirk.us @freemo Thank you. I was *NOT* expecting that quote from that particular body of work, but I'm not familiar with it.

I lost an eyeball down my pants while sitting on the loo. I must have a screw loose. I'll have to go to Walmart to kit out and tighten things up. I'll wait for @mikmaqpeek though. She may have a list.

@alaina

Yay! Follow if you need more dog pics in your life. I've been posting some of Tilly under that hashtag. Welcome!

@fisunov Thank you for the post, as I'd end up going on the Bird site for that and I'd rather have all that kind of feed here.

It would appear they are *NOT* going to go for the NRHO on this run, rather save it for Gateway first and THEN make those orbits for Gateway? I'd think NRHO would be too expensive and not provide useful data for the purpose at this time, and it's not been mentioned with Artimis I.
