Just wanted to comment to say this is one of the most awesome music videos ever made. Never tire of the song or video.

When people are content what is there to say? People tend to post about topics that anger or frustrate them. The quality of the post varies on the sincerity of the user. Anything from shitposting to actually articulate arguments. You’re unlikely to find the latter on any form of social media. Most constructive conversation happens face to face. It’s just too easy to derail an online conversation and there are powers that be that are literally troll farms because it works.

There was a message yesterday about the game werewolf. An informed minority will generally control the uninformed majority. You get a small number of people to troll and that’s all it takes to derail conversation around any topic they don’t like.

Is there a FOSS option to turn something like a pi zero into streaming device? My assumption is a flavor of Android is required?

Edit: referring to streaming services such as Netflix. I’m aware of that home plex and jellyfin servers exist

Never had a problem with Brother printers

I caught that after I replied. Firefox with ublock is now my default android browser. You’re right…going into feed mode to see posts chronologically with ad block is the Facebook of old. Thanks for the tip.

I am on mobile. I’ll try desktop!

Was scrolling through Facebook as I still use it to keep in touch with family. 20 sponsored posts for every one actual post. Facebook is terrible.

It really whips the llama’s ass.

Seems plausible. This guy seems to be in every thread shouting rape and talking shit with the basis being tweets.

As someone who has been falsely accused the assumption of guilt is unfair. Tweets are not evidence.

I’d like to learn more.

Damn. I can’t imagine. Hope you and the doctors get it figured out and that you’re having a good day. Hang in there. We’ve barely scratched the surface of gene therapy.

Not my intent. I made an edit to address that.

I don’t disagree with you if that extends beyond borders. External forces seem to dictate what happens there.

I’m very saddened to hear about the death of this young woman. I’m also sad to hear about deaths of many, many Palestinians. I do not think it’s coincidence that Hamas decides to launch a major offensive in the midst of talks with between Saudi Arabia and Israel to normalize relations between the two after many years of relative peace. We can’t have peace in the Middle East because it doesn’t serve the ends to the major regional powers.

Both sides in this conflict are used as pawns for the political ends of others. Innocent people are those that get caught in the midst of it all. Hamas didn’t do this without a green light so as much vitriol being spilled in this thread we have to take a step back. These fights have been brewing and going on for generations. If you take the short term view much of the strife we see today is the fallout from WWII and that is used as leverage by other nefarious parties.

It’s not the Israeli people’s fault they do not have a home. It’s not the Palestinian people’s fault they do not have a home.

Some of the comments in this thread are sickening, hateful, narrow, and short-sighted.
