  • Virtual meetings give the person running the software way more power to censor participants than in-person meetings do. That's the real reason they want this.

  • like the obsession with them all having a cola in their hands

    Probably couldn't get them to look right in another pose. Lots of artists struggle with drawing hands.

    Note how the hands that aren't holding soda cans are partially or completely hidden.

  • Sometime before 2007:

    Zuckerberg: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at HarvardZuckerberg: Just askZuckerberg: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS[Redacted Friend's Name]: What? How'd you manage that one?Zuckerberg: People just submitted it.Zuckerberg: I don't know why.Zuckerberg: They "trust me"Zuckerberg: Dumb fucks

    Facebook was NEVER not evil, regardless of your rose-tinted glasses.

  • Pretty sure that's an X (and I guess now Wayland) thing, not a KDE thing. I could be wrong, but I think you could sit down at a VAX from the '80s and expect it to work.

  • Why does every headline about things Mamdani is doing make me cackle with glee?

  • The struggle is real.

  • Why'd he think he was weaker than the third candidate?

  • If they had any of those things, they wouldn't be Republicans.

  • You have repeatedly demanded that other people cite sources while refusing to cite your own. You are blatantly commenting in bad faith and everybody knows it.

  • I didn't want to give the appearance of shilling. But if you want to know, it's https://www.zennioptical.com/id-guard

    There are apparently also similar products from "Reflectacles" and "Vaydr," but they were more expensive and/or not normal prescription glasses. The Zenni thing is just an extra coating you can add on to the glasses you would have otherwise bought anyway (which is how I found out about it; I didn't know it existed beforehand).

  • I didn’t reference specific sources

    No shit, Sherlock, that's the goddamn problem! Read the fucking thread again because you literally failed to comprehend my comments!

  • Get some fucking reading comprehension. What part of "cite or GTFO" did you not understand?

  • You demanded other people here cite a source, now it's your fucking turn. Cite or GTFO.

  • Meanwhile, I recently got new prescription glasses (after wearing my previous pairs for way too long, BTW) and got some that have an IR-blocking coating that's supposed to block face recognition cameras. Because that apparently needs to be a thing these days.

    (I'm disappointed that these DuckDuckGo glasses don't have a similar special coating. I like the company I got mine from, but I'd like to see more companies offering privacy-enhancing tech.)

  • why include an instance that doesn’t?

    Because it lets you see how common or uncommon defederations are relative to the total set of all instances (or at least, all minus the long tail of very-low-user-count ones). And although it would make the graph larger, it would also make it sparse and IMO that would also be easier to read.

    It could also give a misleading impression that all instances defederate or are defederated by somebody, making people think it's more common than it actually is. (Or maybe not doing that, if you include allish instances and it still ends up being not very sparse.)

  • Ah yes, "in retaliation for their activism" in accordance with that famous exception to the First Amendment eliminating your free speech rights when you're in prison.

  • Get an old bike that's in good mechanical condition but looks shitty.

    Alternatively, figure out how to take the bike with you on the bus. My transit system's buses have bike racks on the front, but if yours doesn't, get a folding bike (e.g. a Brompton).
