  • Gish gallopA rhetorical technique in which a dishonest speaker lists a string of falsehoods or misleading items so that their opponent will be unable to counter each one and still be able to make their own counterpoints.

  • demnotcracy sucks.

    1.5 party rule is in a binary context. First past the post is not floating point; it is integer. That truncates to bits. Sounds more like a cultural norms disease of spurious sophistry through self-denigration.

  • This guy fuckmurders the homeless while whoring for billionaires. Why the fuck should anyone vote for this prick?

  • Stalkerware is criminal digital slavery. It is sale and ownership of a part of a person to manipulate and exploit them.

  • Positive feedback is an active choice. It is impossible to create positive change from negative feedback.

  • AI is the new McCarthyism. I don't see many bots at all. I see a lot of fuckwits though. Maybe I just block the bots I don't want to see. The FWs are hopeless though. My main account has blocked hundreds but they are like the heads of the Lernaean Hydra 🐲 🐲 🐲 👀

  • It is just a higher level of abstraction with the overlying ethical principles and morality, like a conversation with an autocrat where their word is law.

  • It is something I have never thought to question.

    A citizen in a democracy has a right to all information, and to decide for themselves. Any other system seems in conflict with "ignorance is not an excuse."

    How can I know what I am not allowed, or think your proper thoughts before they cross your mind to inform my ignorance.

  • Yup

  • The color schemes of default piefed do not have a very pretty and low power OLED option.

    I want the ability to turn off downvote visibility where I can view it with a toggle but not by default. I would make more posts that drive engagement without that negativity.

    It would be nice if we had a small semantics model running on the server that could assess the negativity and value of comments with an optional filter for comment visibility. There are relatively few squeaky wheel type users and (likely) bots but they have a disproportionate impact on everyone. Basically, I am saying, a genuine, real person should have an option for a beehaw administered and moderated experience through basic toggles and automaton. Like I want the negative feedback on some things, but there are posts where I know there will be a fraction of toxic people with authoritarian views and I simply do not care what fascists have to say. Or make a simple filter that looks at a voter's statistics overall and drops votes from view when the person is a major outlier for negativity. This is only about enabling good people to post real stuff and be more open. I can only speak from experience, and my history of posts on this and my other main account show that I would post a whole lot more if it were not for the few toxic people and interactions.

  • intentions unclear. Am I calling For or Against

  • I don't know. I was cursing at ducks an hour ago while trying to remember how to spell diatomaceous earth and the ducks were total fuckwits.

  • It is a duplicated repeating error because this clownshow of a website is managed by squirrels and ducks. 1-800-273-8255 would be a valid US number. Doubling 273-8255 is not, but probably vibe coded under management that should be purged by these results.

  • Computer history museum. – the archive of our age and what shaped it thus far.

    I'd like to go to the La Brea tar pits because that holds massive meaning for Earth's living history.

    I love the age when people cast engines and machined parts in their middle class neighborhood back yards and alleys; when all motorcycles still had bicycle pedals and were just modified bicycle frames. The way the motorcycle started as nothing more than a velodrome pace bike to replace the 4+ man tandems for leading out certain track events is on clear display in their museum. I wish I lived in an age like that, where people could be far more creative without space and shitty people constraints. I have no place to do metal casting even if I could somehow handle the physical stress of it. I would love to do green sand casting.
