Help me think of some good ones.

"Why can't I use state money to make a nice school for whites and exclude other races, they can go build their own school with their own money. Of course, I'll do everything I can to destroy their tax base and funnel their tax money my way".

"I never heard in school that the civil war was about slavery, it was about states rights and Northern aggression! So we must make sure our kids in school don't learn lies, obviously my understanding is correct and complete"

"Why can drag queens flaunt their acceptance in the street and I can't flaunt my desire to kill them and make them illegal without people thinking I'm an asshole?"

Crystal 1.9.0 is released! (crystal-lang.org)

I learned about Crystal from somebody's Lemmy comment a couple weeks ago. Amazing and under rated language.

Their announcement is pretty lackluster tho lol.

This is best appreciated on the waning side of your acid trip in the wee daylight hours.

No corporation can ever be trusted, they exist to exploit you.

16 It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy. 17 For Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”[g] 18 Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden.

19 One of you will say to me: “Then why does God still blame us? For who is able to resist his will?” 20 But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’”[h] 21 Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use?

22 What if God, although choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of his wrath—prepared for destruction? 23 What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory— 24 even us, whom he also called, not only from the Jews but also from the Gentiles?

I think -- copyright should apply to humans only and be non-transferable from the original artist except in cases of death. Grant copyright to individuals or joint copyright with groups with fractional right for 7 years if the work is distributed, 1 year if not. Legal entities cannot own any copyright at all.

Makes me wish I wasn't so quick to delete my account.

What a sick fuck! A little money for lives huh?

The fediverse is the real internet, it's not a company providing a service. On the real internet, once something gets out there, there can never be a guarantee that it's taken back. Even on Reddit, once you post something, Reddit might fully delete it but someone out there may have copied it.

I sure hope there's a large group of servers that refuse to federate with servers run for profit. I didn't come to be a product and be manipulated with algorithms.

[-] kool_newt@beehaw.org 17 points 1 year ago

I will remove myself from any servers that federate with Meta.

Anybody visiting family today and need a good video to back them up.

[-] kool_newt@beehaw.org 31 points 1 year ago

Awesome! I wish them success!

[-] kool_newt@beehaw.org 29 points 1 year ago

That's funny, I'm testing YouTube alternatives.

[-] kool_newt@beehaw.org 17 points 1 year ago

It's way better participating. I lurked on Reddit and things like it for years before I got the courage to speak up. I was so afraid of saying the wrong thing. Eventually I realized I'm not nearly the dumbest one, who cares lol.

[-] kool_newt@beehaw.org 17 points 1 year ago

This is where my mind goes. Kinda convenient that Twitter and Reddit, both likely particularly dangerous to those seeking power happen to be destroyed seemingly intentionally in the same year ahead of a sure to be insane U.S. election season.
