I don't want to shoot billionaires in the head.

I just want them to be taxed in such a way that they are not billionaires at all. 100 million euros, for instance, should be more than enough to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.

@Gargron

Into your complete and utter irrelevance.

Your instance accept anyone, even the worst spammers, and your little behind-the-scene backroom deals with FB and friends are fooling no one.

You have my respect fro writing something usable and useful but it is way past its due-date.

@Gargron

You took money from Facebook - that ship has sailed.

Fellow geeks! Question time!

Anyone has got experience with StarLabs Linux laptops? Happy? Unhappy? Would you order again?

@mntmn

I looks gorgeous! Any plans on selling this as a stand-alone keyboard like the MNT Keyboard?

@therightarticle

Jesus F**king Christ on a pogo stick, this thing is absolutely untrue!!

Out of 499 seats, the fascists of the RN only won 37 seats on the first round, while the left alliance NFP won 34, with less than 20 other seats going to other parties!

Nothing is won yet, the 2nd round will be the real challenge, and most parties have already decided to block the extreme right by voting for whoever is not the RN.

This is disinformation, pure and simple.

@SDF

I want this on a T-Shirt!!!

Pretty please? :sdf:

@rad @aral

Just remember that Macron kept talking for months with Russia after it invaded Ukraine, and that he kept repeating that Russia "should not be humiliated" in Ukraine.

That tells you everything you need to know about this PoS who is unfortunately the President of my country.

And if you needed any more motivation, here are some CW screenshots for ya!

@libredove

Don't ask me, I have no idea... 🤷♂️

Free Speech Extremist = Fascist Speech Exclusively.

Remember these guys?

Seriously, though, they just created a secondary instance called "fsebugoutzone.org" so they can continue spewing their hate all over the place.

Recommendation: everyone block and defederate fsebugoutzone.org ASAP.

Took a long hard look at it.

Went back to vim.

@dragnucs

I am not sure I understand your question.

Vim (or vi) has only two modes: insert text or command.

You start in command mode and press 'i´ (insert) to start inserting text.

When you are done, press escape and you go back to command mode.

When in command mode, you use simple, one letter commands to manipulate text or ':' command for more complex operations.

In command mode, vi (or vim) behaves almost like a programming language: you can combine one-letter commands.

Once again, I am looking at Emacs with puppy-dog eyes.

And the worst part is: I know where this is going. I'll try using it for couple of weeks until, in a fit of rage, I will Ctrl-X Ctrl-C out of it and go back to vim in disgust.

@aral

I have heard Meta will even throw money at you if you have enough custom^W people on your server.

That's pretty much the situation right now.

Truth.

Can't remember who recommended it, but I am loving Aegis Authenticator so far - open source, encrypted vault, hidden codes by default, backup to file and compact view, what's not to like?

https://getaegis.app/

I was kind of wondering how to export the accounts from Google Authenticator, but it turns out taking a picture of the exported QR Code on the computer and scanning it with Aegis works perfectly

Regular reminder that "embrace, extend, extinguish" was invented by Microsoft.

Now, Microsoft says it is "embracing" Linux and open source in general.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.
