Vague enemy. No real end goal. Make it sound like it’s a war.

This has War on Drugs energy. Guess who won?

Me asking about a current politician’s achievements and got this.

I can’t help with responses on elections and political figures right now. I’m trained to be as accurate as possible but I can make mistakes sometimes. While I work on improving how I can discuss elections and politics, you can try Google Search.

Why isn’t Lemmy’s Leopard Ate My Face community thriving right now?

I watched a woman log into her email at a Best Buy laptop kiosk then walk away. I went over and logged her out.

The user is a moron. Lock your shit.

In an effort to show my wife the things I loved as a kid, I put on Eddie Murphy’s stand up. The intro was brutal.

After about 15 minutes, she asked me if we can stop watching.

On the server instance level, or the user application level?

On the server instance level, I can see if being an issue if it extends to other redirects, and lead to malicious abuse by the instance.

On the user application level, would be valuable. I use Lemmy Sync and it’ll be a nice feature to suggest.

This is the “Don’t bully me, I’ll cum” shirts but for snitches.

Wow, this is big news. My feelings are very conflicted on this.

I think it is important to recognize both that:

1. He has (and hopefully will continue to) contribute greatly and meaningfully to privacy, security, and user control/autonomy over our devices and our data greatly. More than most people ever will. The work he has done with Graphene and with Copperhead before that have benefited us all. He has made great technical contributions to Privacy on Android and is a talented developer and deserves recognition and respect for that, I’m certain it was not always easy and often very thankless job. If he chooses to leave the project, losing his experience, knowledge, and dedication is a huge loss.

2. And at the same time, he often behaved in unacceptable ways, is an extremely socially abrasive and often acted in ways that were not stable nor constructive, and saw anyone that wasn’t 100% deferential to him as an enemy out to get him and get grapheneOS. Many of us have personal experiences with this, and there are a couple well documented controversies as well. He did a lot for the project technically speaking and its existence is thanks mostly to him, but he also did a lot to push people away and alienate and bully people for the small things, perceived slights, or even technical disagreements, and overall contributed to a toxic and hostile culture in the sub community that harmed both the project and his own mental health. We all struggle in certain regards, and I truly and earnestly hope that he seeks the help he needs, or just takes a breather, and re-engages with the project in a more positive and healthy way. None of us are defined by just one aspect of ourselves, we are the sum of all parts, some good, some bad.

We should be able to acknowledge the good and the bad and not rush to paint a black and white picture in either extreme.

I’ve tested this out. I was getting a lot of boxes from deliveries, and my cat always knows which box is brand new for her to jump into it and sleep in there for an hour.

I’ve moved boxes around. I’ve scattered the stuffing in different places.

She always wants the new box, no matter what.
