  • United cancels planned 9/11 flyover featuring passenger plane escorted by fighter jets

  • You see it as a boring plane. They see it as a giant flying billboard.

  • Trump, hoping to salvage midterms, makes dubious pledge to give every US adult $5,000 if GOP wins

  • Like he was going to end the war on Ukraine in 24 hours and release the Epstein files?

    Sen. Lindsey Graham dies at 71 after ‘brief and sudden illness’

  • I had always kinda hoped he'd live long enough to see his prediction of Trump destroying the Republican party fully play out. Can't say I'm upset by the news despite that.

  • Questions mount after Mitch McConnell CPR reports emerge

    Jump

  • These people are literally white knuckling power to their dying breath. It should be classified as a mental illness.

  • What's the most truly horrific, disturbing or extremely important Celebrity or Media scandal that virtually no one talks about?

  • I did this as a kid as well, though I never confronted my parents about it. I just quietly died a little inside as the whimsical magic of my childhood was eclipsed by the cold truth of our reality.

  • The average SpaceX buyer post-IPO is almost under water after two-day slide

  • Wow, who could have seen that coming?

  • Canada wants to join the age verification bandwagon and censor the internet with Bill C-34

  • What are you even talking about? If anybody is denying the existence of a challenge, it's you through your insistence that there is no future worth living without the unrelenting integration and consumption of technology.

    Don't get me wrong, I rely on these technologies as much as the next. In fact, as a software engineer, it's my livelihood and I'm going to support any means to keep it aligned with my own values.

    But I also recognize that I am a small fish in a vast ocean and that my most reliable weapon against tyranny is my own free will. If push comes to shove then I can and will simply refuse to follow society into the techno-feudalist hellscape we're moving towards.

    You call it being left behind; I call it liberation.

  • Sounds like you're trying your hardest to convince yourself that it's worth selling your soul for whatever they're offering. If that's the case then they've already won and it's only a matter of time before your freedoms are stripped away and you willfully become a virtual slave for fear of missing out on whatever prosperity is being promised.

  • Left behind? If you've deemed a system to be so necessary that refusing to abandon your privacy at its behest means you are condemned to live in obsolescence, then you're only reinforcing the idea that we must surrender our rights for the benefits of the system.

    I'm old enough to have lived in a world without the internet and if it's going in a direction that demands I surrender my right to privacy then I'll return to a life without the internet. I won't be alone and just like Lemmy I'm confident we'll build an alternative that aligns with our values.

  • And so what? Many of us left Reddit because it killed 3rd party apps to force us onto its shitty mobile app. Did it burn without us? No, I doubt they even noticed. Does that make our departure meaningless? Also no, we built something better here.

  • I'm glad to see Susan Collins on the way out. Perhaps there's a lesson establishment Democrats can learn from this.
