It’s called observing reality. For example, gay marriage is illegal in several states, slavery only got legalized to ~40 hrs a week, incarcerated men and women are deprived the right to vote, etc.
Come on it’s not that hard.

Are you sure? Legal means it has to be legal everywhere, otherwise you can just get the same treatment eg.: doctors get for providing abortion. Nowadays, that means you can get ICEd by an out-of-state order.

Maybe COVID will be so bad that it will facilitate me go get into exercise
Health, being about people or countries, does not work that way.

Isn’t it dangerous now that PDFs can run javascript? (Who had that idiotic idea, anyway?)
- Comment on My Thoughts on the Fosstodon Drama | Kev Quirk 3 weeks ago:
Yet the mob not only punishes for the former, but does it so instance-wide, needlessly tarnishing the reputation of normal users of the instance while the admins moderated that problem on their own.
Punishing people by transitivity only gets communities so far.

So, the usual “on the Fediverse you shalln’t be anything less than immaculately perfect” crap?

Well, that’s just about as good news as can be in the current tech climate, in particular considering programs like VLC and KeePass are getting this visibility.

There is a non-zero chance that if you press it, you become smarter enough to realize you shouldn’t have pressed it…

…Why is there a conservative magazine in lemm.ee to even begin with?
This sounds pretty easy to nip in the bud. With a bulldozer.
- Comment on What keeps Americans from being mad about the state of their country? 2 months ago:
The fact that it’s exactly what they want.
Trump won with the popular vote: thhose want to be fascists. And those who don’t vote, well they just confirm a fascist in power.

They didn’t even hand me a uniform or a qt cap, and they work with Node.js despite several warnings; I ain’t representing shit.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 6 months ago:
If you work for a company, you’re a representative of that company.
I’m not. Corporate is paying for my work (and barely, at that, given current rates), not for my ethics or for my ethical standing before other people who might not work at the company. If you believe otherwise, you might have been brainwashed by corporate-paid education.
- Comment on Wikipedia article blocked worldwide by Delhi high court. 6 months ago:
So, lemme get this straight: Wikipedia is being censored (worldwide, might I add) because a party complains that they are reported of as being accused of a thing, or because of the thing itself?
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 6 months ago:
Well, given the kind of company, it’s not like you’d obtain a consent if you asked. They’re too busy getting that Israeli money.
