I have trans friends in the US. This bill probably won’t pass, but that doesn’t mean more will come. They’re already putting immigrants in concentration camps. So it looks like the gays and trans people are next. Probably not long before dissidents are after that.

Someone that used to hang out on the Discord server I’m part of justified it because “the world is divided between winners and losers. For there to be winners there have to be losers.”

He was a real privileged asshole who worked in accounting for the US military. Loved how his paycheck was bigger than most soldiers, even some officers. Bitched for nearly a whole month about how the Obama administration was giving “free handouts” when the US pulled out of Afghanistan and gave all the veterans a care package.

I argued with him a lot. Nobody liked him. This is the kind of person the people from OP’s meme are.

I still can’t believe Amazon got away with it.

I boycott Amazon years ago already, when a warehouse of people died because employees were told that the government’s tornado warning was just hyperbole.

Amazon is an evil company that treats its workers like garbage, and practices some of the most vile anti-union practices.

I cancelled my Amazon Prime account and never bought a single item through Amazon anymore. I don’t buy anything from Temu either, by the way.

The only way it’s going to die down is if it gets replaced with the next tech bro buzzword.

The previous one was “smart”, and it stuck around for a very long time.

Someone needs to see Measure of a Man. :)

Except Vision isn’t a robot, he’s an android. Or maybe more than that; a synthetic life form. He is his own person, with his own wants and needs. He can feel and develop opinions on things. He’s not merely a computer with a personality algorithm.

My phone still comes preinstalled with a bunch of crap and I want it gone. Like I’m never going to use Google Games, I’m never going to use LinkdIn, I’m never going to use YouTube Music, or Opera Web Browser. None of these apps I can remove without root.

Unfortunately Organic Maps doesn’t really work well. I gave it a shot yesterday at work (I work food delivery on bicycle), and it couldn’t find half the addresses I needed to go to.

Can’t wait to update gimp from terribly out-dated to somewhat out-dated.

Same here in Europe.

This is highly irregular for several reasons:

Google adheres to official government positions, yes, but as far as I’m aware the American government hasn’t made the name change official yet. Members of the government have said that they’d do this, but I don’t think this idea has passed any process yet. So then why is Google “updated” their maps?

When Google adheres to official government positions, they are local. In example, when you’re in China and look up Taiwan, it’ll appear as part of China. In other countries it’ll appear as either an independent country or a disputed territory, depending on that government’s official position on the matter. What we DON’T see is something like “Taiwan (China)”, as Google supposedly has no intention on forcing the policies of one government upon another government, and as far as I’m aware the rest of the world hasn’t agreed to changing The Gulf of Mexico to The Gulf of America.

Damn, that’s awesome! Thank you for sharing, this is going to be very useful to me.

Mario Odyssey, Civ 6, Crash Bandicoot N’Sane Trilogy. and Ascent.

Having lots of fun with these games. Still amazes me how switch emulation is so smooth on the Deck.

Some of the biggest men on the Internet seem to have the biggest insecurities I’ve ever seen.

And what do third parties not associated with Musk say?

Musk has a history of “saying” things, and presenting mundane advancements that have already been achieved as things he invented.

Battle for Wesnoth and 0 A.D. are also pretty decent FOSS games.

Star Trek for the technology and exploration (both of space and the human condition). Star Wars because WOW that dude just moved that shit with his FREAKIN’ MIND!

Track pads, and the trigger buttons are LMB/RMB. I’ve set those controls up on my Deck for Civ6 and it’s honestly very comfy to sit on the couch playing civ on the deck.

Windows has 100% support for Windows. I mean, yeah?

I don’t see Windows supporting Linux programs. Or Apple programs.

It’s a bad argument.

So, the way a geographical feature gets named, or renamed, is if the rest of the world recognises it as such.

Sometimes a name change of a feature, or the annexation of a region, gets internationally recognised not because everyone agrees to it, but everyone wants to stay on diplomatic good terms.

There’s a similar situation going on with the Persian Gulf/Arabic Gulf.
