This is more a consequence of manipulative propaganda and poor education being weaponized against people, rather than a direct reflection of constitutional gun laws.

Revisions don’t really make sense for Framework in the same way as most other tech companies though, simply because of how upgradable and swappable the laptops are. My 13 probably has parts from two or three different “versions” at this point, and works like Lucky Charms.

This should be incredibly fucking concerning, and yet it’s become about as interesting as dropping a penny in the parking lot, which is honestly even more concerning.

I’m not convinced we have any hand whatsoever. The world economy might be thrown into a bit of chaos, but more and more countries are starting to tell the US to go fuck itself. It’s not inconceivable to think of the US being completely irrelevant and ignored economically within the next decade.

Every single time I try something new I reinstall Fedora within a day, pretty sure it’s just Stolkholm Syndrome at this point

Makes no difference if the little shit is a pig or a bastard, if something you value and care about is threatened, fucking fight for it. When they have bigger guns than you, all that means is its time to get creative.

Imagine someone keeps breaking into your house and shitting on your pillow. Do you move out and find a new house, or do you grab a baseball bat and beat the shit bandits ass?

Both are valid options with positive and negative consequences. Which path we choose is largely determined by the value we personally place on our things and spaces. We tend to value our homes and families more, so it’s easier to choose the bat. But, it’s the exact same choice when your country goes sideways (or any difficult decision, really).

Ask yourself; How valuable is the country, to you? How valuable is your role in its society, to you? How valuable is it that you stand up for your beliefs, to you? If you place no value on your country, then move on and feel good about taking care of yourself. If you value your country a lot, then stand and fight to the end. No one on the internet can answer these questions for you, and there is no right or wrong choice unless you decide there is.

The Orange Cunt has far too few functioning braincells to have any idea what he wants. Make the FBI solve all the problems because thats what they do in the movies and fire every federal employee just for existing are not mutually exclusive concepts when your too narcissistic to tell the difference between your own head and a puppet-hand up your ass.

Right now I think its basically zero chance, BUT we are absolutely hurtling face-first into that exact reality.

It’s our extremely unfortunate job right now to fight these fascist Cunts and do our best to prevent this reality from coming to be. I get that that is downright terrifying, but if we give in to that fear and bury our heads in the sand, doesn’t kinda mean they win?

The Cunt’s really trying to take over the world by merely whining about it like a spoiled brat discovering happy meal toys

How many times have impeached the Orange Cunt again? At this point they are about as meaningful as XBox achievments

oh no, anyways . . .

The system does not work against those that simultaneously run the system and do not recognize the system

Sounds like its time to completely flood Reddit with ‘bannable’ content

Can’t be any climate change if there is no one to report the climate change

Hasn’t this been in the works for like 5 years

We actually have hundreds of photos of Earth from space and more than a few astronauts that make it a full-time hobby to photograph our little blue marble. There is a perfectly reasonable explanation (two actually) for why those photos look fake, and while far more mundane, it doesn’t require the application of any ridiculous conspiracy theories.

Explanation Uno: There isn’t anything in space like a pesky atmosphere to get the way of the camera lens and create distortions and imperfections. The result is images that look a little too crisp, a little too clean, and a little too colorful. They don’t look like the ‘normal’ images we are used to, so our brains tell us it’s wrong or fake. It’s called the uncanny valley, which is typically applied to images of people but it’s relevant to anything that breaks our normal just a little.

Explanation Zwei: The images are actually fake, or rather they are false color images. Pictures are great, but it’s kinda hard to do a lot of science if all one ever does is look at the visible color spectrum, so we also take pictures in other spectrums like infrared, radio, or ultraviolet. However, since our pathetic human eyes can’t see those wavelengths, we have to recolor them to something we can see in the visible light range (hot things are colored blue, cold things are colored red, etc.). It’s not lying, it’s just better science.

There are plenty of things in this world actually worth being concerned about, especially right now, but if none of this convinced you, let me ask you this; Why? Why would anyone fake every single photo of Earth ever taken from space? Why (or more importantly, how) would literally everyone agree to lie about going to space?
