- Comment on Trump touts bill that could make voting harder for married women 19 hours ago:
Citizens convicted of felonies should, in fact, still be able to vote. The US has a huge problem with convicting black men of bullshit charges, effectively disenfranchising them.
- Comment on “Terribly frustrating”: After USPS changes, more newspapers aren’t reaching subscribers on time 2 days ago:
Trump-appointed Postmaster General Louis DeJoy rolled out the 10-year Delivering for America plan, which was supposed to help USPS break even by 2023.
Bullshit.
Friendly remembly that the USPS is required by law to set aside retirement money for employees who will retire 75 years in the future.
- Comment on Discord's Disturbing Ties to Global Surveillance | ID Verification, Palantir, & Thiel 4 days ago:
Yeah, that’s a valid point.
I like that Stoat is self-hostable, but the lack of federation or even a way to sign in to multiple different instances in the same app makes me not even want to try. Why should I self-host something when everyone else is going to be on the flagship instance, which mine can’t talk to?
- Comment on Discord Game chat alternatives? 5 days ago:
Language model integration, at the core. But only if you want it.
Nah, not installing anything that uses this shit, even “optionally”.
- Comment on Discord's Disturbing Ties to Global Surveillance | ID Verification, Palantir, & Thiel 5 days ago:
Personally, I would like to see them both get new users. And Delta Chat, and XMPP, and other messengers too. Relying too heavily on one option is what got us into this mess.

People have to drink water and don’t always have better options.

Please get help.

Its current CEO is, in fact, of Ashkenazi descent.
Uh… and?
He came home: https://nerimity.com/
Nerimity doesn’t allow NSFW servers, so no thanks.

- Comment on They wonder why nobody wants kids anymore. 2 weeks ago:
That’s what they said…
This makes sense as a way to cover edge cases in extreme circumstances, but “is having a child” definitely isn’t such a case.
- Comment on AI controls is coming to Firefox 2 weeks ago:
It’s not that LibreWolf deliberately blocks Claude. One of their anti-fingerprinting techniques messes with it.
“That sounds like an endorsement” referred to how they don’t want to waste their time or weaken their privacy tools just to make the slop machine work.
- Comment on AI controls is coming to Firefox 2 weeks ago:
I did check. It’s not there.
- Comment on AI controls is coming to Firefox 2 weeks ago:
Pocket’s dead now.
Like another user said, where’s “open image in new tab”?
Remember XUL extensions and real browser themes?
Remember when you didn’t need a developer account to make extensions and you could distribute them via your own website?
But of course, Firefox never takes away choices that were previously offered.

- Comment on AI controls is coming to Firefox 2 weeks ago:
Librewolf being so anti ai, using claude in it freezes the page and they seem unwilling to fix it.
For real? That sounds like an endorsement to me.

The tank doesn’t make any sense.

This isn’t an AI community, spammer.

- Comment on US, Japanese firms unwittingly hired North Korean animators: report 3 months ago:
Under UN sanctions, North Korean workers are prohibited from earning money abroad.
They found that cryptocurrency thefts – along with arms sales to Russia – made up the bulk of North Korea’s foreign earnings in 2024.
I wonder if these two statements are related.
