Conservatives use religion as a form of control. It works for morons.

I am an american but i think it works like this:

  • streets are bike friendly
  • more reasonable to just bike everywhere so everyone does
  • city may provide free bikes to use
  • more demand for bikes, more competition, less expensive bikes
  • less bike theft in general as a result
  • these aren’t $4k+ bespoke bikes
  • something something socialized healthcare something something better labor laws something something higher taxes but a better quality of life. Why steal? Be happy.

We don’t have these things here. Except for expensive bikes, that’s all we have. That’s why I got these boltcutters…

rarely , to fediverse in So why is .ml TLD going back to Mali taking everyone by surprise?

You mean the country that owns and has always owned .ml TLD, which states rules you must follow if you want to register a domain with that TLD, which states the penalties which include forfiet of your domain name, surpised people when they did what they said they would do?

This is kind of interesting to see how the public views ownership. There seems to be an assumption that buying xyz.com is akin to buying a utility (we pay for water service to drink and drown or waterboard). This ain’t it. A domain name is a registration in a database on servers that need to be constantly online, it had costs, it has governance concerns and technical infrastructure that must be maintained. There isn’t a higher power here, no government owns the internet, but some governments do own their own TLDs. This makes it possible to have mali.ml vs visitbeautifulmali420.squarespace.com. It might feel like you have the power to buy fuckmali.ml and put turn it into goatse but mali can nuke your registration if they wanted to. How did these countries get the TLDs? ICANN. But don’t think ICANN is going to jump in and break their rules for you.

This sucks but ICANN has a solution… there are many many TLDs out there now. They all work the same: it’s just a name, point it where you go and it works like any .com or .org. or whatever. Fun ones like .zip and .xxx. grab one you like but be sure to read the rules when registering. Some TLDs do NOT allow private registration. Most country based TLDs (ccTLDs) require that you live in that country and provide proof of citizenship.

This has been around since the inception of the internet. There are alternatives to ICANN, but I am not positive you will want to use them because:

  • your visitors will need to use these alternatives on all devices or on the router in order to access your site.
  • legit domain holders may not have records on these alternate services but malicious actors might. If we change the IP to a malicious actor for apple servers at the DNS level because the TLDs arent using the root-servers.net, anyone using those TLD root servers could easily be hacked.

It’s not great, but ICANN starts the chain of trust upon which the internet relies.

It looks like you have two free bikes in front of you. I wonder if they float in the river.

rarely , to android in Phones on Verizon with headphone jack?

They wouldn’t need a dongle for phone cases, they could easily make room for a headphone jack, but they don’t as a concious decision for a few reasons:

  • “people don’t want or use them” as “the market” has “spoken”. In other words, phone manufacturers removed it, the public didn’t revolt, people bought more wireless headphones and other manufacturers followed suit.
  • less lint in your phone I guess. A few more extra phone features, or capacity or battery life. USB-C truly is the future. Why add a feature that most people won’t use instead of features they will use?

I mean there are many MANY reasons why we would want to keep the jack:

  • we could actually use the FM receiver that phones are capable of and use the headphone jack as an antenna, as was the case when smart phones started hitting the market.
  • batteries die and the wireless headphones have batteries. Really kinda silly to have two products that can do what you need with one wire but they no longer can because there are no magic pixies to send over the air from one to the other.
rarely , to android in Phones on Verizon with headphone jack?

I don’t think you will find one easily, but you can get a small usb-c to 1/8" headphone audio jack (TRRS or TRS) pretty easily. Otherwise maybe check out the jelly phone… not sure if its out but its tiny and newer but has a headphone jack.

Why is this so hard? UPS tech had been around for a while and I still can’t find linux drivers to support the cyberpower one I have.

Which makes sense because god is a made up concept used by the rich and powerful to control peasants.

And by rich, we are talking yuge amounts of money, considering the GOP calls a family making $400k/year “middle class”. Middle class isn’t rich, we are talking about people who make a lot more than $400k/year.

The only people who benefit from voting red are the super rich who use their money to influence poor dumb dumbs into thinking that they too will be rich one day, despite only making under $100k/year.

They’ve been wrong for a very long time. They are still waiting for trickle down economic (reaganomics) to work. Its been decades and nothing close to trickle down has ever come to fruition.

Non-americans: trickle down is the idea that when we boost the profit of CEOs that money will “trickle down” to everyone else at the company. A laughable idea that has and will never work.

You need a wifi router. Connect the wan to your network. One mac, wan doesn’t know about your devices.
