Honestly, this was a very cool experience. Being able to log in with a Lemmy account on the open Fediverse showed me a taste of what is possible. Now if we can figure out how to migrate accounts to different instances I’d honestly love that so much.

Awwww, it’s so adorable! Hope we can find more amazing images from James Webb Space Telescope!

It kind of means women shouldn’t be taken seriously, because they’re just “silly little airheads” who just cook and clean.

I saw something similar happen with Strange New World. The marketing was bad but turns out it may have actually been a Solarpunk type of film, which actually would have been interesting to see.

Wow, I just looked at this page, and it seems to be a pretty straightforward guide to how the Inuit language works! This was an interesting find to come across. Thanks for sharing this with us, and be sure to post more!

I disagree, although I can definitely see where you are coming from. Places like Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi are still dealing with outright racism in some areas. There was even astory I read about a town that had a white okigarchy which wouldn’t give its black resudents mayorship. The South, while seeming like it won’t change, will eventually have to. There are a lot of demographic shifts happening here that will force it to change some. Not to mention a growing labor movement, awareness of clinate change, and growing activism to address social issues that will increasingly put pressure on local and stare governments. So, yes, it will take time to correct the inertia of the status quo, but it’s possible.

I barely even know about him in the first place lol

I hope this really hapoens. I’ve heard that video game development is a toxic jndustry to be in, from underpaid developers to strict dealines to meet. I really hope they will unionize!

“Girl, you are my Two’s Complement, you’re always my plus one on any occaision”

Cuz if you invert the bits of of a binary number and add one you get its negative number, so your girlfried is an equal part of you

For me, Blender was probably my very first introduction into FOSS. I was using it because it was free, but I also liked the concept behind having a useful software the people used everyday to make cool projects like movies and animated shows. I did a project on it in. What really got me down the rabbithole was Debian. I had come across it in computer class, and I really liked the interface. i did more research and came to love Debian for being a stable distro run by the community. From thereit’s history.

Agreed, i have heard of dual power amd parallel power structures. We need a lot more of them.

I guess maybe the sobering part of this read was the fact that maybe revolution will take a lot longer than we thought…so maybe our focus should be on building alternate community institutions and forming connections instead of focusing on big events like protests.

I agree with this post you made. If the best we can do is vote into office a fairly old, out-of-tuoch president who has done a moderately decent job of running the United States, then it’s a lose-lose situation for everyone. Politics especially in the United States has become too boring and safe. We need to take a risk on Cornell West and spice the game up a bit. Else we’ll repeat the same mistakes we’ve been making for the past 50 years.

Edit; pls forgive my passion posting, whoops. Point is we need a shake up cuz stuff is going down the drain a little

I’m not sure, but if it gets the ability to sync comments and posts across instances, i’d love that feature!

Ooh, thanks for your analysis! I never considered the “lack of choices” perspective.

Whioe you are most definitely right, it’s at least a starting point (even if it’s really ineeficient)

you’re probably right about that, i never thought of it that way!

I really loved her video on the notion of love in our society, and it brought up some important points about how love is commoditized, and how we often have unrealistic expectations for it.

There might be, but as a standard mp3 is by far the most cross compatible format on any device. Plus, if you feel like it later you can just create a program to convert all the mp3 files into other formats.
