How can you be offended about drag queens representing someone you know was gay?

Lost_My_Mind , to nottheonion in J.D. Vance Told His Son to ‘Shut The Hell Up’ About Pokemon While Talking to Trump

I don’t even care about pokemon, but I’d rather hear what the son has to say, than what jd vance or trump have to say.

I’d just like to point out, again, maybe for the 1000th time, that jd vance is on video, several times, saying he’s a “never trump guy”.

Never.

Never, huh?

Kinda seems like he’s a full of shit guy.

SpaceNoodle ,

Somebody needs to tell him to shut the hell up.

Lost_My_Mind ,

If I ever see either of them in person, I will.

I don’t agree with the guy who tried to shoot trump. But I WOULD agree with anyone who stormed the stage, and forcably made any of them wear a ballgag. THATS the way you shut them up!

Less assasinations, and more…ass…something…ok, there’s clearly a pun here about making an ass out of trump. Somebody make something out of that.

SpaceNoodle ,

We just need fewer asses in our nation.

GrabtharsHammer ,

Trump seems to just riff on his weak understanding of the last thing he heard. Maybe they were afraid of a weird rant about bulbasaur extinguishing clean coal.

I care about pokemon but only because it became my duty as a father after "Dad, let's play pokemon!".

Pokemon Go is kinda great actually: It's a video game but it gets people up and walking.

If you ever have kids, you'll probably share my fate lol

Beardwin , to asklemmy in What would you do with a bitcoin windfall?

Take your free money and put into something with real, actual backing value. Ignore the gambler side - it’s just the devil on your shoulder. This is free money. Let it work for you over the next couple decades.

EvacuateSoul OP ,

This seems to be the majority opinion. I’m thinking moving the majority to sound investments is my likely course. I do think keeping a little that wouldn’t sting badly to lose still scratches the itch without risking regret.

Mubelotix ,
@Mubelotix@jlai.lu avatar

You got the money in the first place because you stood apart from the majority. Don’t assume they are better than you

EvacuateSoul OP ,

I would not have kept it this long. I remember being mad it was gone when it hit $1000, because that seemed insane. It’s realistic to think I would have sold then.

something with real, actual backing value. Ignore the gambler side - it’s just the devil on your shoulder.

The stock market or real estate are yet another form of gambling and another face of the devil

Beardwin ,

In the short term, sure. In the long term the S&P 500 averages 8%/year for 100 years. I would argue that is a much, much smaller gamble.

index ,

Bitcoin were designed so that you own them. Trusting your money on for profit corporations isn’t going to pay off in the long term, i think you want to look a little further than your own wallet

Beardwin ,

I don’t understand your argument. Wall street was designed so that you and i could own actual shares in companies. Companies which produce goods and/or services. What is the backing value of bitcoin other than others possibly wanting bitcoin? What backs it other than demand?

I have owned crypto. I have made a lot of money off crypto. But to think it is safer than traditional investing i think is a bit naive. It’s, so far, a supposed solution looking for a problem.

index ,

I have owned crypto. I have made a lot of money off crypto.

Sounds like you never own many, someone else owned them for you. I encourage you to learn better how cryptocurrencies works

Beardwin ,

Sounds like you don’t have much left to say and can’t back up your point, so you get personal.

index ,

You still don’t have idea what i’m talking about because you still haven’t put 5 minutes to learn about cryptocurrencies.

@Fizz@lemmy.nz avatar

I had an ugly old Macintosh and it sucked because nothing I wanted worked on it and none of the things that did work were of any use.

ByteOnBikes ,

Opposite opinion. It was great for Kid Pix and and After Dark screensaver. Also I was like a little kid and was also easily amused.

spiderman , to fediverse in Im counting the days for a Piefed app so i can switch over and be able to forget about ml drama and weirdness

what if they are turned out to be like this or hate other set of people? lemmy by design is defederated so even if the devs are like this, you can just simply call out them or leave their lemmy server lol. i am sure there are trans friendly lemmy servers out here.

as long as lemmy by design is against any sorta people, you dont have to boycott it.

xnx OP ,

Yeah lets ignore the lead dev’s opinions on stuff its not like they have power over the project and a big number of users on their server.

Its ironic you say this from the ani.social instance which was previously defederated from ml because the lead devs thinks all anime is degenerate or something like that and it ruined the anime community since ani.social was still too small

spiderman ,

Like I said in my earlier comment, if the devs make changes in lemmy which by design discriminates any sorta people, yeah people should be leaving lemmy. Twitter just shoves and boosts hate and polically biased posts (favoring elon, the app’s ceo). Lemmy devs are just extreme leftists (tankies in lemmy’s language), but it doesn’t push or shove their views onto me or anyone (in my knowledge).

Its ironic you say this from the ani.social instance which was previously defederated from ml because the lead devs thinks all anime is degenerate or something like that and it ruined the anime community since ani.social was still too small

lemmy.ml defederated with us, it was just one instance. it is unfair and not justified but again, I dont miss much because of that.

skullgiver , to linux in Edit: it's CentOS 7 (original: CentOS 3 on a self checkout?!?)
@skullgiver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nl avatar

CentOS 7, released with Linux 3, only went out of support a month ago.

Expect to see it pop up everywhere the coming five to six years. The sort of people who still run CentOS generally aren’t the sort of people who upgrade their software unless they absolutely have to. It’s like those ATMs running that obscure version of Windows XP and 7 (although the Windows 7 Embedded release will still receives updates for a few more months)), you deploy an OS onto them, kill any accessible port you can find, and just let it do it’s thing for a couple of years.

The only reason the DOS POS systems are being phased out is that the hardware they run on can no longer be replaced easily, and even then Dosbox is sometimes used to run POS software.

Then there’s Dutch trains from NS running the time schedules on Vista until a few years ago…

Wtf do they mean by shared secret for example?

In this example it is a config value that the software expects to be present, I’m guessing based on the screenshot it is to be added to the homeserver.yaml
