These people got nonsense views in their head because of religion. I think the only cure for many of these people we consider “too far gone” to convince rationally is through religion also.

Oh perfect. That would be a good upstream base for other European govt projects.

I do think the EU should start with a more basic app like FluffyChat in testing but rebranded, then try to make their own app over the Matrix protocol that fits their specific communications needs and share that development publicly with open source.

That would be enough to reduce homelessness by more than 10% for a year.

IMO they’re both good and deserve our weight, I do think they can work off each other.

I use Lemmy because their mobile app support is much better and Jerboa (the Lemmy maintainers’ app) has everything I need and not a single bit more. I think it would be great for Piefed to get more app support.

There are a lot of features that I think Lemmy can benefit from emulating from Piefed, like the option to show comments from crossposted threads, filters, and more granular moderation capability. I heard Piefed is a lot lighter on resources, so if I were to self-host I might use that one. Also I have no idea how many of Lemmy’s shortcomings are due to be addressed in their planned 1.0 release.

Lemmy development is slow whereas Piefed is a bit faster, I think each is great in their own right. Not everyone agrees with me here, but I think the Lemmy developers do a good job keeping their personal beliefs to their own instance, rather than let it infiltrate the code base. Same with Piefed. I think the development of both should be encouraged rather than trying to find rifts and making it a team sport.

The simulation also projected that the judiciary would be of little help to any state that found itself in the president’s crosshairs.

“We concluded that in a fast-moving emergency of this magnitude, courts would probably be unable or unwilling to intervene in time, leaving state officials without meaningful judicial relief,” Finkelstein explained. “State officials might file emergency motions to enjoin the use of federal troops, but judges would either fail to respond quickly enough or decline to rule on what they view as a ‘political question,’ leaving the conflict unresolved.”

So that panned out as predicted… (pdf of 8th circuit of appeals rubber-stamping the continuation of ICE violence on innocents)

The entire past year I haven’t gotten over the fact that this oaf is a living walking version of the USA polandball caricature that can’t get the name of any country right.

Thanks Kavanaugh and the Trump goons of the Supreme Court.

(Not me but) if someone wants a chromium based browser, what should they choose?

feddit.nl can make a netherlandsEnglish community, Engels or something like that and invite people over.

[email protected] is the Dutch-language community.

Hopefully the EU will realize: now is the time to do all the things to protect Europeans they wanted to do but haven’t because of the threat of US tariffs, because he’s planning to do them anyway over other stupid reasons.

Basically ICE’s digital colour pantone. It sure does make their job at being racist easier.

Start with Minnesota, this Friday. Just like ICE’s invasion and occupation, start targeted and then spread.

It’s not any more sus than running any FOSS project binaries obtained from github. And OP wants to test a bunch of live environments, so that’s not really a security-critical environment.

I’d suggest it’s collective laziness over any even potentially malicious intent. The author listed about the 180 blobs they are aware of, the vast majority from FOSS projects.

I really hope they are used to support enforcement the federal court’s injunction against Metro Surge-involved ICE agents infringing on Minnesotans’ constitutional rights.

CASA are an immigrants rights group that have lawyers that represent them. AARP are a retired persons’ advocacy group.

How they are used here are to name the cases of two specific decisions the Supreme Court made, so the Plaintiff(s) and/or Defendant(s)’ names are just used as a shorthand reference to it. Both cases are related to the immigration effort.

In AARP, the Supreme Court said better due process needed to be afforded and the government is enjoined from removing detainees under the Alien Enemies Act without due process and sufficient notice.

In CASA, the Supreme Court basically wants to prevent lower courts from stopping the government from removing detainees too broadly. This is despite they themselves found a month earlier that they needed to put to a stop the administration’s violations of due process.

Link to the court order, here. The order itself is on page 81.

I skimmed through the whole thing, and essentially the judge weighed the protestors’ sworn first hand accounts far higher than the one government official’s sworn statements of just having read DHS and ICE’s unsubstantiated report and parroting them, much of which was being contradicted by the video evidence that both parties supplied. Also the judge makes a small jab at the Supreme Court’s malicious stupidity, footnote 33, page 77:

An open question remains as to whether CASA’s emphasis on applying thestrictures of Rule 23 when granting class-wide relief undercuts the court’s grant of class-wide preliminary relief in A.A.R.P. The Court finds it doubtful that the Supreme Court, through reasoning alone, so sharply reversed course that it indirectly invalidated its own rule of law issued just 42 days earlier. McDonald, 792 F. Supp. 3d at 498 (“There is no reason for me to assume that the Court in CASA intended to walk back a pronouncement it made the previous month in A.A.R.P.”).

Edit: Don’t hesitate or wait for my validation, live life the way you want, with as much or as little modern tech in it as you please.

Have you found ways to reconnect with technology?

My rule is that I interact with technology on my own terms and volition. I get upset if I get led or ‘tricked’ into an app or consuming some form of media. I access tech when I want to and am looking for something, and try to reject the idea that content should come to me in a steady stream. If I am watching brainrot it will be because I want to click and scroll through brainrot videos, not because it was the next one to play after the video I actually wanted to watch.

If you want bliss at this endless beach, build your own little FOSS sandcastle. If it washes away, build it somewhere else, and find other people that like to build FOSS sandcastles.
