Are people really trying to make blacklist and whitelist a race thing? Good Lord.

Are we going to start referring to cables as having female-identifying ends and male-identifying ends? Are USB-C cables non-binary?

these new tires do deform with the ground

They aren’t saying they don’t. The foam and gel tires they mentioned also deform with the ground. Like you said, the rings only compress a bit at the site of the impact. Person you’re replying to is pointing out that pneumatic tires disperse this impact across the whole tire

Yes, that’s exactly what I think and precisely the message my comment portrays. In fact I believe you personally are the sole cause of the lack of public programs. Shame on you.

I was going to say you’re not a bad person, but then you swore on the Internet.

It doesn’t matter that you tried to censor it. Bad words are a strict no no here and don’t you forget it. The Internet is no home to your obscenities.

I’m on your side of the argument, but I don’t think this is a fair take. We know from history that it’s very difficult for victims to come forward in these cases. Your Catholic Church example is a good case of this; the adults we’re hearing from were children when the abuse took place. Look at the Me Too incident. Hundreds if not thousands of victims all coming forward years after the fact because they feared the backlash. I genuinely doubt there are groups like the woman described in existence, but if there were, it’s understandable that we wouldn’t be hearing about it right away.

That’s what I’m saying haha. Everyone in here seems to be relishing in the fact that this program might go away simply because of who put it in place. I’m getting more and more convinced every day that the majority of people who left reddit for the Fediverse are young angry teenagers who think they’re sticking it to “the man”. So many comment sections look exactly like this; no nuance, only anger at anything remotely right wing. Even an HIV resource program is too far right for these people.

“Hey guys the program I made works pretty well and a lot of people are genuinely benefiting from it if we’re serious about helping people we should keep it funded”

“Fuck you you piece of shit go die! Also how come there aren’t any public programs :(”

Individual websites come and go, yes, but COVID literally dominated every and all aspects of everyday life for the better part of 2020. It’s like saying that everyone is gonna forget that WWII happened because most of the newspapers from the time have stopped running.

there will be little record

Did you use any form of social media in the last 3 years?

“I have to see my rapists living in my city, I mean I wasn’t raped or anything but yeah. You should definitely fuck with the biker gangs tho”

Least terminally online comment

This reminds me of that Russian parade a few months ago where they just rolled the same tank through a couple of times.

Y’know, that’s a fair point. I don’t necessarily agree, I’m not that in tune with most websites’ designs, but for someone who actively works on them I can see how you might look at things a little differently.

That was my takeaway.

THeSe mOroNs dOnT knOw What ThEYre dOIng! WHo thOUgHT thIs wAs a GooD IDeA?!

Probably the hundreds of focus groups that were behind the decision shrug

Are you able to show us an example of what you’re talking about? I genuinely cannot picture a situation where this would be remotely as bad as some of y’all are making it out to be, how do you design a website in such a way that very slightly chamfered edges completely ruins the look?

I mean you can like or dislike it of course but are you really complaining about a viewport 20 square pixels smaller than normal

Ah that makes sense. I see a lot of comments seemingly replying to the wrong comment, I’m on kbin and the comments are pretty clear for me but maybe other instances they are still confusing. Sorry if it seemed like I was coming at you, the incorrect context made your comment seem incredibly hostile for no reason haha. Have a good one man

If you don’t understand, then ask a question.

What exactly is your challenge here?

I think they were asking a question? There isn’t a challenge they’re doing exactly what you said to do in the correct place to do it lmao.

Tbf this is how it works in my state (California) and I’d assume many others with a similar program. They don’t want people that already have a degree (and thus potential for a higher paying job) coming in and inflating the program’s cost.

What the hell are you on dude? Someone literally is just trying to have a discussion with you on a public forum you posted in, how are they trying to drag you ham fisted in to a debate by simply replying to your comment? Someone’s gwumpy…
