I think your first line nails it - there is no alternative, so we just keep on with the same terrible idea. The alternative _should_ be that we put you to work doing something you are interested in. I have 3 children and all of them were ca

More people need to watch “Naked and Afraid” to learn what the human body is capable of withstanding.

This is well said. The article is so weak and poorly laid out its like listening to a bad pop song through cheap speakers. It doesn’t even have a proper closing. Just ends abruptly.

It’s SO sad that this has to be political. I wish we could address arguments on their merits. That doesn’t seem like something that will be improving in the foreseeable future.

I felt like it went into overdrive in 2016. Maybe partially driven by a certain political figure who seemed to be the perfect foil. I think the irony of MAGA is that it made a bad situation far worse. Or rather, it was a self-fulfilling pro

Honestly disappointing that trolling is the top comment here. This is the kind of thing that we should hold each other above doing.

You can be outraged without donning a pair of horns and running through the capitol with a stolen lectern. This kind of overcharged rhetoric gets us nowhere when rhetoric is all we have to solve the problem.

I think there's plenty of reason to be concerned, but certainly not enough to be terrified or overreact with comments like "this comment is offensive".

I agree with this and I would extend it to all politicians. Why are you communicating serious business via Twitter? Use formal outlets and put a little effort into it. Less than 22% of US adults have a Twitter account and less than 42% of t

This is a good idea. I’ll help too. Can someone post a link to something we could like that’s an objectively harmless right-wing meme?

There is a compatibility library https://deno.land/std@0.83.0/node . But they're at about 10 out of 35 for the Node Standard Lib. And There is no way to handle Node libs that use node-gyp - although I don't th

I assume the thinking goes something like this... "We know that x% of free accounts convert to premium. That means that if we can get more free accounts, we'll get more premium."

I find myself in the exact same position. It's one thing if I say the election was stolen. I should not be censored for saying that it was. My voice alone will not sway anything. The problem is that so much power is concentrated with t

I think _that's_ the false equivalency right there. The right does the exact same thing, only it looks something like this... > "Why the false equivalency? Trump's stated goal is to bring back jobs and protect America. BLM

I'd be careful with us pretending one of these groups is less violent or more dangerous than the other. The right just got done making that same logical mistake. It's a long way to the bottom when you claim the high ground.

Good points - I mostly agree with 1 of them. 1) Storming the capital is far more concerning than some hippies setting up shop in Seattle. But I would contend that that these two extremes are pushing each other to more extremes and there is

That may very well happen. But the equal and opposite response here would be to setup your own infrastructure. We may very well see a "soft secession" as we have left providers and right providers and then we began to geographical

This is a good point and I agree with it. The market will sort this out better than we could with regulation. I do think that some may see this is a reason to go back to their own data center. It's also a reason why some content creato

If you’re a business, do you really want to be on a provider that can pull your card with little to no notice? That’s a lot of power. The boot is coming down hard right now. The cloud is looking like a risky bet.

It’s sarcasm. The poster is trying to point out that what’s being proposed is forced ideology. Re-education camps as it were.

> “BLM, the people who want their tax dollars to go to alternatives to policing” You’re coloring one ideology all good and another all bad. Not all MAGA people stormed the capital any more than all BLM supporters burned down a police pre

It seems like Parler gives law enforcement an easy way to track these folks and see what they’re planning. Is it really a good idea to send them underground? I’m also reading a lot about how you can’t incite violence. We should all be able

This is EXACTLY why this is bad. If you censor the narrative, then you get to control it and history tells us that the first thing you'll do with it is mislead the masses.

All the rally goers are not terrorists anymore than everyone who was at a BLM protest is Antifa. We’ve got to be very careful here not to paint all of MAGA with that brush because that ends in a dark, dark place.

The censorship issue aside, it feels to me like these companies let this go on because it was good for their bottom line. Now that it looks like he's going away, they want distance. I'm not advocating for or against this action, j
