Can’t be worse than Reddit.

Sleepy Joe is a good nickname because apparently he’s been asleep for the last 50 years.

Yeah, Y0K. They had to update all their scrolls because the dates were all in BC format.

First of all I wasn’t comparing. 2nd of all it is incredibly stupid to argue that American machismo doesn’t exist. Compared to fucking what?

This is not optimism. It’s more irreverence. Which is honestly something we need more of these days. Everyone’s so goddamn serious.

It’s rooted in the tradition of American machismo and braggadocio. Hyperbole is a huge part of the American oral tradition. You go to any small town in the Southern US and the old timers will have some tall tales that beggar belief and they will tell them too you as if it were the gospel with no winks or nods.

I think Devil Went Down to Georgia is supposed to be viewed as a boast by Johnny himself. “I’m a really good fiddle player.” “Oh yeah?” “Yeah, this one time I beat the Devil himself.” “I told you once you sonofabitch, I’m the best there’s ever been.”

Well if you’re religious. There’s a whole class of individuals in the South that get off on showing the religious just how little they care for the tenets of Christianity. In addition to playing a mean fiddle, Johnny probably swears like a sailor and has extramarital sex whenever he can.

The song came out in 1979. The Southern Rebel was a big concept in the culture.

Yeah, just mentioned it because it’s really when console shooters went mainstream.

Halo CE

So devs used to have extra time just to add multiplayer. My how times change.

You’re just wrong. Devs today work far more than those devs did. Devs today work insane hours. It’s nearly physically impossible to work more hours than devs do today.

Cool, thanks for the guide.

I already have Tuta. I used to have Skiff and that allowed you to create unlimited aliases with their domain. Alas, it was never meant to last as they were always owned by venture capital.

I need to figure out how to do that.

They literally gave over user information. That is what literal means. What their marketing claims is not literal.

Expose activists?

I wish Tuta supported throwaway email addresses. If it did it would be nearly perfect.

Non-profits are just for-profits for management. They make things slightly more transparent. That’s about it.

I’ve run across Wikipedia hate as well on Lemmy.

There will always be issues with Wikipedia, but overwhelmingly it is a useful and reliable resource. Also, “its sources” are any reputable journalism from around the world.
