I hope this rings as genuine... I would very much like to hear back from you!

I agree that it feels really confused but if I can get it running one day with the ability to save my sessions, I would gladly flip between this and X+i3 for my daily driver. What I see offered here is a way of mapping a huge, non-software

I'm actually just now gearing up to homelab a Matrix set up! I'll keep this in mind.

Also did you happen to look up Skylor Jernigan? Had you heard of him?

Oh absolutely. We aren't going to fix the external (relative to unions) conditions of labor by creating a more perfect union.

Thanks for the explanation! XMPP may not be the flavor du jour but it's got the old gears turning in new ways...

That makes sense, thank you! My preferred solution to this kind of problem would be more akin to worker ownership or at very least worker involvement in steering decisions (board positions, etc). But I also despise forced arbitration. Absol

As far as I understand they are "partisan" not by design but as a result of representing their interests (which, in my opinion, should always represent the aggregate of the workers the union represents -- which is sadly not so) Pl

Has anybody here ever used something like XMPP as a sidechannel? Sounds interesting and I kind of want to try setting up something really silly just for fun.

As discussed above, police unions are a different beast. And an explicitly partisan union would be a shot in the foot of the organizers. That's not exactly how you build solidarity.

Yeah I lurked for way too long. Spent like half of yesterday rate limited, which is understandable. :) I actually have a few mutuals who have been on the ground in Portland and I'm in the southeast. I had seen this stuff when it first

Please link me! I've been following the pipe bomb situation pretty closely so I've missed a lot of that stuff probably.

If you're developing in the right sector, MacOS has a market that's selected to be lucrative. I don't think that's a particularly good thing, but it does explain how <10% market share can make such a big splash. Espec

I wanted to disagree with you, but honestly my gut also says the MAGA hat person is at risk. Here's the thing though -- where's the data? Has that actually happened in any significance? Especially compared to right wing violence.

Agreed that you shouldn't be using Popper as a cornerstone, but I really think it's a great tool for getting folks to step outside a limited perspective. A foot in the door when trying to introduce the difference between hate spee

I think much like cybersecurity there is no "solution". Moderation is a posture, not a result. You have to just stay on top of it or everything will tend towards 4chan given the chance.

I really agree with this. An American Indian friend of mine once said, "It's not like we want another Trail of Tears." Folks who have been beat down know people don't deserve that just for being a certain way. Now if y

Wouldn't the difference there be between venting resulting in hurt feelings rather than targeted violence? Reports of genuine, targeted violence against reactionaries are almost non-existent while just a few days ago three trans women
