Why not simply make the flight FREE*

If a country has to live under a dictatorship anyway, I will definitely prefer the dictator in power being toppled even every month, rather than a single dictator being able to consolidate their power and terror.

I used to use Standard Notes for a while (didn’t self-host the server) but for various reasons switched over to Joplin, syncing the data between devices with Syncthing.

Are you literally saying that flooding all possible channels with lies requires some kind of special competency?

I’ve tried that and found that they will drown even without the dish soap, but the problem for me is getting them to go for the liquid instead of just hanging out all around it.

The Bluesky user experience is lightyears ahead of Mastodon.

A worthy goal in itself, and doubly so when it also helps Ukraine.

I feel like Facebook is much worse for that, but I haven’t touched Facebook in many years so I couldn’t tell you why I feel that way.

Wait what, Syncthing is dead? But it’s what I use!

I’ll keep running W10 on my current machine, but when I build the next one I’m very seriously considering going Linux. My only concern is that many of the software I use regularly don’t have Linux versions.

It’s good for when you want to keep up with what people or organizations you’re interested in are up to. Artists, authors, game developers, etc.

It sucks for any kind of in-depth content or conversation, including politics.

I know, I was making a joke

Because Queue<T> is typically read “queue of T”

“You’re a Queue of T”? I don’t get it

As a linguist, I’d just shrug.

I first thought this was a bad idea by Paypal but you opened my eyes

My guy, you should stop feeding the troll. I can keep coming up with bullshit indefinitely. The intent of my original facetious reply was to point out how ridiculous it is to react to a clearly ridiculous and unrealistic suggestion as if it was the most seriously considered expression of an actual policy suggestion ever. But it turns out some people just can’t not take every single thing that is said with the utmost seriousness.

Of course a nuked country will be a nuked country. That’s beside the point, moving the goalposts.

That’s the point

No, they can return after the country has been glassed.

Yes, but in reality nobody is going to nuke anybody, and certainly not because a random internet user vents their frustration at the situation with a clearly metaphorical and exaggerated request. Your reply was an overly literal reading of the comment, like replying to “go fuck yourself” with “…you realize that’s not possible, right?”

I simply replied to your literal interpretation with a literal interpretation of my own.
