No, he's just grating and obnoxious.

A "haha, I got an obscure funny meme" tattoo is a terrible idea, but you do you.

Family whose roof was damaged by space debris files claims against NASA in c/space@beehaw.org

I love space stuff and NASA (one of the few truly great things about the US) but they really shouldn't be yeeting things into orbit and hoping it takes care of itself.

They are kitties, but very spicy.

They can be fun for a bit. I tend to get overwhelmed with all the crap I loot. I have the same problem with games like The Elder Scrolls series. I'm alway afraid I'll accidentally sell something important or useful, but I usually end up with a lot of junk. Lol

This barely qualifies as news. Anyone with half a functioning brain knows that site is infested with Russian bots.

Well, I can always do what tech startups do and just make shit up! No pun intended.

what's your current linux distro? in c/foss@beehaw.org

[–] darkphotonstudio@beehaw.org 3 points 5 months ago

If you like or need the latest software, use a rolling distro. I use Manjaro (boo, hiss) and really like it. But if you don't want the Arch users to beat you up and pants you, I hear Endeavour OS is pretty good.

Bonus points for making Arch users seeth because you call Manjaro, Arch.

Solarpunk sounds likely doomsday prepper shit (beehaw.org)

I don't know where else to put this. I'm sorry if it's in the wrong place and will move it if it's not appropriate here.

Every time I read anything from so-called solarpunks, it reads like slightly left of centre ravings of doomsday preppers. They seem to love many of the same fascist talking points. For example, individualism self-sufficiency , which sounds a lot like the frontier cowboy fantasies of right-wing nutters. They promote what essentially is subsistence farming, which is a terrible way to live. There's a reason this kind of shit leads to famine in developing countries. An almost enthusiastic fantasy surrounding primitism and the loss of technology. There are so many issues, I could go on. Unless I'm missing something (possible) I don't see much appealing about solarpunk because it seems to have a delusional nostalgia for the "good old days", much in the way conservativism does.

Is it really as crackpot as it sounds? If not, what am I missing?
