For context, the Fifth circuit covers Texas, Mississippi, and Louisiana.

On Apple Silicon Macs, you can set up Asahi(Fedora) Linux to dual boot. Or you can you use something like Parallels as a paid alternative to bootcamp.

No, your not really wrong, it’s just the tone that comes off as blaming others for their failures.

There’s a place for that but it is IMO not really on a public forum. Praise in public and criticize in private is good life advice. Maybe your tone is unintentional due to the nature of internet text communication.

To me, it seems like you could stop and realize that making sound financial decisions isn’t as big of a factor to most people as it is to you. There is more to life than worrying about money.

Corporate media does hyperfocus on that but I don’t think it helps make our (North American) society happy. It distracts us with escapism and temporary happy emotions.

But to be real, I hate how automatic updates just assumes the newer version will be better than the current. Enshittification is just as real in apps as in web services. And automatic updates help enable Enshittification by making that assumption. Of course, It’s more applicable to the app store or play store than to f-droid.

I like it too. I wish I could compare it to current reddit, but I can only access it through old interface. And the current reddit is is too addicting to me to justify working around it.

I kinda hate that I like the sh version cause it will tempt me to sink time there.

Yeah, I was referring to official forums for technical support or feature requests and the like. I don’t really think that everyday people were usually the ones who setup forums, it is website operators and other techies who set those up. The people who setup an independent forum are not the same people who setup a discord community. Discord has a much lower barrier to entry that usually results in a lower quality information and moderation than a forum would.

I mean, yeah, forums are harder, for sure. $20-35 monthly for a mail provider seems to high to me; I would expect that to be about the yearly cost. But, I don’t really have much experience with an email provider for that use case. Really the problem lies in that a website operator and a community maintainer are 2 very different types of people that rarely intersect.

Discourse is a forum software. Maybe you are mixing it up with something else like disqus?

what might everyday people use to set up forums as relatively easily and cheaply as their Discord servers, and not have them riddled with ads or other clunky elements?

Discourse is a clean open source forum software that is commonly used for application support and well suited for it.

Or if your a real die hard for the fediverse, you could set up a lemmy instance for application support. There’s even a phpBB frontend for an oldschool forum look and feel for it.

Usually everyday people don’t setup forums, that’s the responsibility of the application owner(s) or provider. In this case, the easy option is also the shitty option if measured by discoverability of the content.

Well put.

-50C !!! When did that happen?

Because they control the FTC and any other regulatory agencies. It’s called regulatory capture. The only other way they can be held accountable is through the pay to play court system which is biased towards them because they can drag it out until the other party gives up.

Thanks for sharing. Looks great.

I never suggested any such thing. Nice strawman.

Yes, A one page bulleted list of vague policies under 10 headings all containing the word justice at the end is not convincing. Not to mention the typo. Kinda seems like you are looking at him through rose-colored glasses.

Your right Biden’s sucks too, but at least people know what to expect from him. It’s a lot harder for an independent outsider to get votes than a known person.

In what way?

I would say it is more because of people that try to gatekeep what people say and do.

But in reality, it just because we have a shitty political system and a culture full of shallow people who unwilling to use rational thought instead of shallow judgements.

He’s clearly not a popular figure if you’ve never heard his name.

His policies seem alright but are more like a dreamy wishlist rather than anything achievable. The paragraph of his wiki about his 2024 presidental run is more convincing than his website to me. And that is saying something.

American: In how left - right is commonly (mis)used here, It would be left-wing.

If you look at from a perspective where left is socialism and right is capitalism, It is slightly right-wing. But when your culture calls anything more than corporate handouts socialism, it seems pretty left-wing.

His website isn’t secure and looks ancient. Also the front page is just a closeup of his face. It is clearly focused on shilling for his speaking and books. So based off of that somewhat shallow look, I would say he is just running as a publicity stunt for his business. Which is fine, I guess, but not someone that I would vote for.

Edited to add: He actually does have a campaign website at cornelwest2024 that I initially missed. I went to the top result which was his main website.
