Sqlite is a good example of this. They explicitly say the project is open source but not open contribution.

This is part of what suggesting alternatives to Discord is hard. People tend to view it as one thing, often chat or voice/video, instead of a holistic solution that is all of those things and more along with making most tasks super easy to do for people.

What front end do you use? I don’t see them on Jerboa app.

That’s weird, I always viewed GPS as a form of American Imperialism. Sure, it’s a bit extreme maybe, but America does own and operate it and jam it when enemies try to use it.

The most annoying thing about bright LED headlights is that LEDs don’t have to be bright. Yet because so many are, people view LED headlights as the problem. You can get varying brightness LED bulbs for your home, why not your car?

Oh I’m so sorry someone asked for an enamel pin from Amazon. Maybe next time someone asks me for a gift from somewhere I’ll subject them to a purity test.

There was a scam on Discord that involved a fake Discord support person. I played along and was trying to get them to send me a malicious link or ask me to do something they shouldn’t so I could report them, but they never got around to it. I think they could tell I was wise to it.

“Why doesn’t anyone wanna be my friend? I’ve asked everyone… Asked them multiple times!”

Very tempted to change my display name to Fediverse Chick.

I had an Amazon bot lie to me. I told it some item didn’t show up and I wanted a replacement. It said it would send one and it would show up in my orders. It never did. So I requested a refund later. So tedious.

It’s the default on CachyOS and I’ve been enjoying it. I typically use zsh.

Everything is text! And different programs output in different styles. And certain programs can only read certain styles. And certain programs can only convert from some into others. And don’t get me started on IFS.

YES!

Every CVE I flip a coin.

Jesus sure loved his slaves, huh? Gives you guidelines on how to beat them.

That passage you quoted is not giving guidelines on how to treat slaves, it is a parable using slaves as an example. Not saying the Bible is totally anti slavery, the second passage being pretty disgusting.

You said android device, they said browser. You’re not being very clear about what your point is. I have Firefox on my Android phone.

Get your ham license and send them by SSTV over the air. Truly decentralized. https://youtu.be/Yak__tnFHKs

They said browser.

There’s a phrase that is still very close to that in some company statement still, I sort of view it as pointless to talk about. We know they’re evil by their actions, and they were evil before they removed it in sure. If the statement is what matters, it’s still basically there, just not the motto. It’s just not worth worrying or talking about. They do so much worse shit. A friend of mine was recently let go after protesting about their response to the genocide in Gaza.

So, unironically, I do plan to request Firefox with uBlock Origin as a reasonable accomodation for my ADHD if I’m not able to use it at a job in the future. Banner ads are genuinely distracting and I have a real disability that makes them worse for me.
