@Linux_Is_Best@mstdn.social @MissingThePt Yeah, it's weird how Musk repeatedly wildly underestimates software engineering complexity.
@jensorensen just saying that woman would have been against Trump in a big way.
@whatzaname @freemo @NikaShilobod yeah I was replying directly to freemo's post end article, which were largely about Soviets. I fully realize his article does not refute your point! We definitely would all benefit from stronger neighborhoods and communities and so on.
@jensorensen More infrastructure spending was one of Trump's main things in the '16 campaign. This cartoon has a really odd understanding of "Trumpism".
@thor The guy in the back should probably try to get his chest up more – i.e. a straighter upper back. Think: proud chest. More like the woman in the front.
@freemo It's almost like nobody knows what Mizrahi Jews are. But we've tried (and failed) to discuss this already.😂
@freemo @whatzaname @NikaShilobod Soviet central planning was weirdly incompetent, at least at times. Like, I don't think central planning could ever be anywhere near as good as laissez-faire, but I wouldn't have guessed they'd make the kinds of mistakes they did.

It's #GlobalEncryptionDay!
Time to remind everyone that a backdoor "for the good guys only" is simply not possible.
By demanding encryption backdoors, politicians are not asking us to choose between security and privacy. They are asking us to choose no security. 👇

@osma @sebsauvage @protonmail Did anyone get an answer? Did the OP just fabricate this whole cloth? (Don't be fooled by my bio I know nothing.)
@vyodaiken @robpike Hey I'm curious how modules could be a 3rd party thing.
@lxo "that's not the way dual- or multi-licensing works." Of course, but as you say: "I realize that's not exactly what's being suggested"... I was talking about something that was not dual-licensing, and is instead something totally different from that.
@freemo IANAL but I think this leads to contradictions. 😂
@InorganicFella @flexghost I do love that Elim Garak meme tho.
@Wahooney @geotrill @johntherun The left eats its own?
@geotrill @Wahooney @johntherun You realize he was a bernie supporter in '16, right?😂
@wilw Lots of instances are off-the-rails ban-happy; find one that isn't.
@InorganicFella @flexghost This wouldn't be the first time we all thought he was about to go straight to jail.
@Teop_Versant @Mlobbes Yeah it does sort of feel like she was hung out to dry there.
