I always heard this joke as “If you hold a stoat up to your ear, you can hear the sound of your own voice, screaming.”

Uh, one side is unrelenting about suppressing everyone else’s rights, and has demonstrated that they’re willing to take control by force and violence if they don’t get ‘their ideals’. If you’re on that side, you’re an asshole, and being ‘painted’ as an asshole is the least that you deserve.
Please stop for a moment, step outside your yourself, and ask… “Am I the baddie?”
Reeks of desperation to bring back the porn after how literally every other mainstream platform has walked away from it.
I’m going to concede defeat here because obviously I’m not doing a good enough job in explaining my position.
It’s because your position is indefensible given recent history and the trajectory of the political landscape.
“We have no intention of invading Ukraine.”
To add to this, self-hosting is also best when you minimize everything - limited service, with limited functionality, on dedicated hardware that doesn’t share access to your internal network or storage. Folks who use point-and-click apps to install a half dozen unauthenticated docker containers, all open to the internet, running on the same PC they store the only copy of their family photos and music/movie collection on… make me crazy.
Judge asks the hypernuclear question: “Have you tried NOT catering to Nazi’s and racists?”
Electoral reform, at all levels. Start with municipal governments by offering tax dollars to help with the transition and to educate citizens. Once a municipality has successfully held their first election under the new system, they get some more money to continue their education plans, then move up to provincial, federal, etc.
Boost healthcare. The state of all healthcare systems is shameful. Bonus transfer payments for strengthening the healthcare system with higher wages and benefits, lower wait times, more equal access to care, and fewer people without family doctors.
Get serious on the environment. Nothing else matters once you can’t drink the water and breathe the air. Stop subsidizing carbon, collect carbon taxes, and direct the collected money back to individuals. Big rebates for energy efficiency projects, electric cars & charging.
Kickstart housing. It’s not rocket surgery that cities and suburbs need higher density housing, with accessible public transit nearby.
That’s just off the top of my head…
In related news, Twitter is up to 80% nazi billionaire despot disinformation bots now. Congratulations!
My electric car was manufactured ONCE. It’s powered by 99% green power (hydroelectric). It burns no gas/diesel, requires no oil changes. I intend on keeping it for 15+ years (my last vehicle got to 16 years before the electrical system fried).
It is better by literally every measure short of walking everywhere.
Just download Signal. Cross platform, verifably E2E, and verifiably no data collected by Open Whisper (as per their submission in a lawsuit). Also, one of the authors/architects of Signal occasionally trolls the companies that provide mobile spyware.
As a little more background, the letter ‘X’ can be pronounced as “sh” in a lot of languages, turning tweets into ‘zits’ or ‘shits’. I like ‘Xitter’ as a pejorative, pronounced ‘Shitter’.
The problem is the CPU effort it takes to produce 100 Xits for your timeline, then search that list for everyone on your blocklist, remove those Xits, then possibly go back to the suggestion API to get more since there are only 40 Xits left, etc. etc. is cost prohibitive… Especially when you have millions of users with thousands of accounts on their blocklists.
Total newb question – don’t these CPUs support multiple clock speeds? You could set it high on install in preparation for compiling a bunch of software, then once you’re done, knock it down to 50% or less of the maximum to add longevity?
Maybe… Hearty Re-Starty?

FYI, finding an incidentaloma and doing another scan 3 months later to see that it’s disappeared is also life saving. My mother had a lung problem, got some imaging done, they found a lump in her lung, and instead of going directly to poking it for a biopsy or surgery, they checked 4 months later, and saw that it resolved on it’s own. If it was cancer, they would have seen changes in it, and known it was something to be investigated further at the time of the second scan. Doctors need to manage expectations and refer people for therapy if they have anxiety around their health.
This meshes with the news that Boeing is run by accountants, not engineers, like it used to be.
