There’s irony somewhere in this, I can feel it

Yes, and if it actually gets used to prevent him from running I will be stunned.

One judge already ruled that he did, indeed, incite insurrection, but then weaseled out by saying something to the effect of “it doesn’t specify presidents in the amendment” in their ruling so they did absolutely nothing about it.

Hope springs eternal and all, but he seems immune to consequences. Again, hoping that changes, but I’m not holding my breath.

At this point, Trump will probably win in '24 and immediately kill off the project

Getting more than a little annoyed by the political tennis, back and forth and nothing actually getting done because everything that is done gets undone as soon as the other party takes back control

It’s not a recent concern, it’s been talked about since the initial reveal

I actually hadn’t noticed the tabs, I really like that

Good old Vent, lots of great memories there

I can’t speak for the rest of the home products, but Roku is a pretty good alternative to Chromecast

They could just stop anytime, they don’t have to justify it

Outside of a minor appearance change, they moved direct messages out of the server list and into their own space (never understood why they did it that way before), and added a way to quickly reply to a message at the expense of having to tap the channel name to see the member list instead of swiping… I’m missing how this is a massive change here and how it significantly impacts usability…

Probably the US at the very least

I mostly pay to support them, and I get a few fun but completely unnecessary perks for it…

Yep. Don’t pay? You aren’t really giving up any actual functionality, just some fun things that don’t have much of any impact on the functionality

Wait, really? It’s not even that big a change! That’s a hell of a thing to cut and run for

Elon Musk has one word for unions — “No!” He told the New York Times last week, “I disagree with the idea of unions. I just don’t like anything which creates kind of a lords and peasants sort of thing. I think the unions naturally try to create negativity in a company.”

I just… I really don’t know how to even respond to that… Beyond laughing at how ridiculous that statement is…

Modern business is not exactly known for making smart long term choices, they see it as a way to easily trim the payroll to make this quarter’s books look better without thinking about what it’s going to do to future quarters.

I’ve been seeing companies left and right shooting themselves in the foot in the same way, it’ll be interesting to see how this all plays out

I guess I really should dig into it and understand it better… It and systemd aren’t going away so I should just bite the bullet and learn them

I mean, it is a thing you can do if Linux is something you want to switch to, but just have these outliers. I’m not going to tell you why you should switch, I know neither if that’s something you want or if that’s something that will benefit you, that’s for you to decide.

All I’m saying is these are a couple of ways to deal with that, that’s all.

I still don’t really understand the reason for switching to Wayland, especially since it sounds like it’s still rather half baked even after all this time

You can always dual boot for those games … A pain, I know, but doable.

Might even be able to run it on VM, especially if you set up a type 2 hypervisor. Again, that’s it’s own pain, but really should only be that on initially getting it to work rather than every time

Microsoft never said that, though. One person said that and tech media ran with it like it was gospel (and Microsoft didn’t correct it, which is absolutely their fault, but still, that was never an official statement but apparently something that was just poorly phrased)
