If i'm so intelligent, how is it that i cannot just accept that everything is meaningless?
Is intelligence generally counterproductive?

@GroupNebula563 Struggling to think of a theme song, but i think after 15 years of IT i'm with it with or without a theme song.

@GroupNebula563
Ooooh, that last one could come in handy at work.
I love practical advice!

@light Thanks, i was looking for that one and somehow didn't find it.

Don't try to ask spw here, it's probably some problem with qoto.

@sun Is there an algo on other masto instances or is this just a joke about for profit socials?

Ok, let's get into bad takes and see if someone gets angry.

So there is a lot of unnecessary incarceration, generally a human rights violation.

But what if we viewed it more like "infecting people with covid"?

There is no real use to humanity keeping anyone that does not try to harm others under lock and key, and prisons are notoriously bad at stopping diseases.

I guess it's quite beautiful how masto is a village. People you didn't think about together meet because you made a poop joke a week ago and followed someone that liked it and someone else is checking out your follows.

If the world is not making sense, at least my poop jokes help connect!

@johntimaeus As a dev, not an infosec guy: nothing has been interesting for quite a while.
Take a rest. It is just mass-produced industry suicide, nothing special will happen. Microsoft stack and ai-but-not-intelligent promises, no need to look.

@VeroniqueB99 Great, now the DND joke about the mimic in the tavern is real at home (at least for people that buy that crap)

@jeffcliff I just noticed you essentially ignored a part of the covid transmission risks in the thing about blm.

Rallying to protest might have transmission risks, staying alone has a much worse risk: incarceration. That's indoors and prisons are notorious virus redistribution centers.

So for a realistic view, one needs to consider any pushback against unnecessary incarceration as a reduction of transmission risk. Shutting up and taking it is making mass incarceration easier and long-term motivates those responsible to continue - it's an industry!

@the_etrain I heard the US needed german deliveries to perform executions (regarding death sentences via injections), now this about torturing via a german-based delivery service.

Can the US do any evil without german support?

@jeffcliff You're comparing people in wildly different circumstances, i don't see what that should say except that the circumstances leading to that were there.

Like if i purree the pears and don't purree the apples, ofc the apples are firm and the pears are a mush. Doesn't say anything about apples vs. pears, just about what i did.

@jeffcliff Calming people is not the purpose of the police, at least in many countries.
You can see this by the responsibility to deal with mentally disturbed people falling to the police, not medical emergency personnel, which would be more qualified.

We had a case here, where someone with a knife was shot. Would probably have lived and not stabbed anyone if people qualified to help the crazy were called.

@catsalad Reminds me of Windows 8. There was some absurd combination of keys (that i hit by accident) which makes strange useless menus slide in from all directions.
A friend had a good laugh when i triggered that and struggled to get it to stop.
