It wasn’t THIS bad, but I remember recently a massive lifted truck revving its engines in our small town, flying massive trump flags on it went by while I was out for a walk with my husband. I commented, “Now there’s a guy who really wants you to know he’s an asshole” and this dude turned around and gave me the UGLIEST look and shook his head at me lmfao.

These people think they’re in the end times because the world is in a garbage fire state, that they probably helped cause, and now they want out instead of doing literally anything else, including just not making it worse.
- Comment on The People’s Answer to ICE: Crowdsourcing Community Defense 2 weeks ago:
“The 3.5% participation metric may be useful as a rule of thumb in most cases; however, other factors—momentum, organization, strategic leadership, and sustainability—are likely as important as large-scale participation in achieving movement success and are often precursors to achieving 3.5% participation.”
I feel like this needs to be underlined. Leadership figureheads, especially ones who can delegate or inspire others to act as sub-commanders, would be huge.
Unfortunately, it’s hard to communicate and organize hierarchy in the climate we’re in now.

Oh, I agree. My comment really hinges on the idea that it actually works. Which I doubt immensely haha.
- Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it 4 weeks ago:
I try to never underestimate what people are willing to do, like, and put up with for whatever reasons.
Considering how un-tech savvy newer generations are, I would not be shocked if the idea of being able to tell a computer what to do and “it just does it” appeals. This is, of course, assuming it works as intended (lol.)
I also see this as a further dumbing down of that ability to understand tech. Hypothetically, if this were to launch, go mainstream, and the vast majority of future computer users use it, can you imagine a world in which a future teenager looks confused and goes, “What’s an app?”

I believe the numbers I saw were about 3-5k, so it might not handle your collection well. However, I encourage you to check their github to confirm rather than just go off my vague recollection alone.

The devs are also pretty responsive to bug reports!
I will say that they themselves have mentioned that there is kind of a limit in library size because the project is meant to serve “small to modest personal libraries” but I think it was ranked as a few thousand, so that won’t be a problem for most people I think.
