@Pat I don't see why this should not then apply to both civil and civic spaces.

We do not have FoS in the UK as you might understand it (assuming USA per your profile).
Hell, we didn't even get rid of "blasphemy" laws in Scotland until 2021, and they still apply in Northern Ireland.

"Liberal democracy" is doing a lot of work when applied to the UK with FPTP, an unelected legislature body containing theocrats qua theocrats and an unelected head of state who just happens to have popped out of the right vagina at the right time.

#ukpol I wonder* if this will apply to, say, political action groups that scam entire populations with lies on billboards and buses [cough] brexit [cough].

@xtaldave Any entity that values its ID should be dumping that utter shitshow stat.

@statsguy Oof. 👏

@xtaldave Thankfully that should be fairly simple for us in this neck of the woods.

@neonbubble They keep misspelling it. It’s not a difficult word, a kid could spe… it’s not a difficult word.

@arclight

Depending on the author's preferred build/packaging setup tool (snerk), there are *some* common layouts for libraries.

For actual tools/apps/whatever that one is supposed to be able to download and actually use, not so much.

If you do find one that isn't complete head-up-arse gibberish, I'd love to see it.

Me: *looks at Python's type system*
Also me: 😂

I wouldn’t trust any of them to sit the right way around on the toilet. #ukpol

@neonbubble During the pandemic the missus and I live-streamed a few concerts, which was great. We got some booze in, made the fairy lights do that frenetic thing they do, and danced with the dogs in the living room until stupid am. Now we’ve taken to watching old concerts on YouTube in the same way. Last week it was The Cure in Orange. Can recommend!

@neonbubble Yeah, stuff like that can happen, apparently. TY.

@neonbubble My mantra for garlic cloves: “whatever the recipe says, double it, then add three.”

“Senior tory government minister babysits a rock” doesn’t have the same ring to it. #HonestHeadlines

Sunak: Britain and Italy [under Meloni] are very aligned.

Christ: just rename the party “#Norsefire” and get it over with.
