Turns out millions of us care about both, as we saw in 2024.

It requires being anti genocide. Kamala, you lack this qualification. Retire already. You lost, you deserved to lose, screw you for being pro genocide. We deserved better. The world deserved better. Still does.

National level fixes almost never work. Give schools and teachers and districts money and power for the win.

That's not what I remember. I remember essentially watching Biden and Harris push for policies that were essentially allowing the genocide to continue.

If you're running for president and you are pro-genocide, then you deserve to lose. You're just a horrible person who doesn't deserve the job. And if the Democrats can't find someone who's anti-genocide to run for president, then the party has no future and it doesn't deserve one.

A headline like that really doesn't mean anything. The commander-in-chief lives in his little bubble with his dementia and his narcissism. Then people in the military have their own information, most of which is presumably more accurate than the big boss's brain.

Trying to speculate about what Donald believes or knows is an exercise in futility because he's a strong narcissist who's getting dementia. He believes in whatever he believes at that exact moment and it has nothing to do with the past or the future or reality, and if you haven't been around people like that, it's hard to understand, but you have to stop expecting them to have a normal brain. Logic doesn't matter. Facts don't matter. Reason doesn't apply.

Some of us pay ourselves to install an ad blocker and then we keep our money and we don't get any ads.

It really depends on your situation and on the work you're doing. If you have a project that you honestly care about that you think is really good then you usually want to see it get done. So you might make the decision to overwork yourself even if you objectively shouldn't. And bosses love to set that up, so they'll give you a bunch of annoying crap that you don't think is valuable. But they make you do it and then you end up having to work later in the evening to get done the stuff that you actually care about. Of course, that's something that we all need to be very careful about, but in the short run it's hard to stop.

And another situation that's even worse is that you might lose your job. Sometimes telling the boss no means that you will be unemployed and if you need to make that money to pay the bills then you might be f*****.

I feel like you didn't actually explain what you mean, so I'm kind of guessing at what you're pointing at. But what many people object to is when they get strong replies and sometimes when they get replies that they didn't ask for. They feel attacked or they feel like the comment section is being unnecessarily aggressive or unreasonable. If that's what you're feeling, then yes, you will find it here.

And I'm not trying to minimize your feelings because they're legitimate. And also this same exact phenomenon has been happening for the last 30 years, if not longer. There are various reasons why, and those can be fun to discuss, because many people in the comments section actually have reasonable positions, but there are some trolls out there and sometimes it's hard to distinguish them.

You have to keep in the front of your mind the fact that he's a strong narcissist. Things like truth and reality don't matter, and the only thing that's kind of true to him is whatever he believes, and that's what he believes right now, and that's that he's the best, and everyone loves him except for crazy people.

So in answer to your question, no, he is not trying to lose because in his brain he isn't losing and he couldn't possibly lose.

I can't say I knew, but it doesn't surprise me. The AI folk, among others, want to spy on us as much as possible, but they also know that if they opnly target the kids, they'll get destroyed by lawmakers and courts and public opinion, so they need to pretend that they're only fucking over adults.

If you're trying to ask whether LibreOffice is dead then I think the answer is no. Because right now, even with minimal updates for small bug fixes or security or what not it does what a lot of people need it to do.

What I look for from that office suite today is very similar to what I wanted from it a decade ago and probably a decade from now it will also be filling a very similar role. So of course it's good to modernize and continue to make improvements, but at the same time a lot of the things that humans want to do on our computers for work and hobbies are largely the same as what they were in decades past. So if we have something that's stable then we win.

Can you imagine if tech workers decided they might want to unionize? That would be an exciting day.
