  People make fun of them but they built their own little empire busting their asses consistently and a little luck. It’s admirable, they never sold out and had creative control the whole time.

  Go spend $100 to print 3 pages every six months I’ll keep doing mine for free.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Mine let’s you print an amount for free every month.

  if they want a document printed they just go out to some print shop.

  Print shops are not at home either.

  Or a library card.

  Legitimately 70 years, their fight started just after FDRs New Deal. The entire modern Republican party exists to work towards this. They want a return to the guided age with themselves as the robber barons and everyone else as a permanently toiling underclass.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK De-banking is often how the US first declares you "homeless"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The second biggest was letting a bunch of traitors go home with their heads held high to establish a mythos about some imagined poo oilof Drfewheritage. Officers should’ve been hanged/shot, lands should’ve been confiscated and given to newly freed peoples, “40 acres and a mule.”

  I’ve been here, I don’t blame them for not stopping by.

  In every business I’ve worked in, any email longer than a paragraph better have a summary and action items at the end or nobody is going to read it.

  In business time is money, email should be short and to the point.

  Monkeysphere theory, or more appropriately, Dunbars Number is a “suggested cognitive limit to the number of people with whom one can maintain stable social relationships.”

  Definitely wasn’t a “bad cop”.

  But by virtue of being a cop, was a bastard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Interesting⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The only reason it failed was because the traitors mistakenly chosen a good and loyal American soldier who informed FDR of the plot.

  Smedley Butler is a name that has essentially been forgotten due to his later views on American business interests and foreign imperialism.

  Some co-workers and I were talking about ordering some to try, just for fun. I think I’m going to do that.

  They were against the Beast because they didn’t know they’d agree with his policies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you have cut off mainstream music streaming, how do you discover new music or artists and songs like what you're listening frequently?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is pretty true and a I love it.

  For all the ills of social media the internet has been an absolute godsend to musicians and music fans alike. We can find genres and sounds in clicking around curiously that most of us just wouldn’t have ever been exposed to without the internet.

  FWIW I try to purposefully spend some time “exploring” music on YT and Spotify, and I go out to local venues a lot. I’m a little older and having a wide library of good music helps me feel “in touch” with the world.

  I have this site bookmarked, this seems like a good place to post it: www.gnoosic.com

  Make sure someone takes minutes so we can maximize our synergies and deliverables.

  Oh shit I unironically like this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's interesting that gun rights were sold on the basis of "resisting unlawful government." They seen to have caused unlawful government.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a good analysis and a great point re: the wedge issues they use to divide us. God, Guns, and Gays. Things that actually impact a relatively small number of people, but that are central to a persons identity and so can be used to turn people (who might otherwise have a lot in common) against each other.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's interesting that gun rights were sold on the basis of "resisting unlawful government." They seen to have caused unlawful government.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Bro look at Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan,

  Better toys for your soldiers doesn’t mean you automatically win the war.

  And still today, right here in this thread, you have obviously privileged people tut-tutting gun ownership. Urging their comrades to forsake any defense at all against rising fascism.

  If the people in power get their way there are going to be camps for undesirables on U.S. soil in the next decade.

  I tell people as often as I can, especially my trans and bipoc friends; now is the time. Get a couple guns (a long one and a short one) and learn how to use them. Learn some basic first aid, you really just need to know how to stabilize someone. Start networking with like-minded people in your communities. The police will not protect us, they’ve proven they’ll happily club senior citizens to the ground and shoot any protesters in the face with rubber bullets while escorting a rightwing murderer to safety.

  Get to know people in your community. Take an interest in growing food, learn how to fix things. Get a gun (or two) and learn how to use them. Iran was a secular, liberal state until almost 1980 when they (mostly legitimately) elected an Islamist theocracy; it could happen here.

  It was so disgusting digging all the gunk out with a toothpick, cotton swabs, and alcohol.

  Optical mice were such a huge improvement everyone I knew (except the weird trackball guy) switched as soon as they became available and never looked back.

  Not sure if it was intentional but you just summarized the show Severance.
