Are you paying attention? We’ve broken the record for the largest protests in American history like 3 times in a row since trump came in, and we’re likely going to break it again on the 28th

Debian on server, arch of some kind for personal use

How does this work? Does a community not individual choose who they are federated with? You format your comment like there’s a central body controlling federation.

Yeah that’s crazy

The fucking politics oh my god, in every fucking community good lord. No way to filter it out either.

And thus their downfall begins. I will never use a single distro which contains age verification

And because this law is unenforceable exactly none of them will comply

Because nobody is going to comply, it will go completely unenforced, and nothing will happen.

That just because you can use it for bad things doesn’t mean you can’t use it for good things too.

Nano users have more important things to think about, saying this as an nvim user

You showed him!

Little problems like this are what makes me hesitate from switching full time.

Fr like hey big gov yeah I helped archive 18 TB of pirated material, put my identity linked account on a scoreboard!!

Oof, that kills it for me. Would be 100% contributing to this otherwise.

Genuinely might be an evolutionarily selected disposition. Could totally see there being an advantage there.

Bro how are audiobooks not reading? Worst take of the bunch, and frankly pretty ableist.

Studies have consistently shown equal comprehension from whether something is read or spoken to you. So firstly you’re literally consuming and understanding the exact same story in your head.

Audiobooks are also far more accessible, you can listen to one and drive, clean, cook, brush your teeth, etc…

And like for many people, audiobooks are THE best way they could possibly consume books. Say they have dyslexia, visual impairments, adhd, etc… that all make reading take much more mental energy. That all disappears in audio format.

And like there’s so much you can add with stuff like graphic audio, you can have a whole cast, music, sound effects, things you simply can’t do just via the written word.

And lets not forget the tradition of human storytelling began from passing on stories purely my mouth. People told a story and remembered it and spoke it again. People are naturally built to take in stories audibly, and its no wonder many people find this method (of telling the exact same friggen story!!!) more natural. Also like we’re these oral stories somehow less legitimate until they were written down?

Wow. That is an actually controversial take. Could not disagree more.

I think this is a less controversial take tbh
