Power captures power. Money is a form of power, but there are many forms and the powerful tend to try to grab more power no matter the situation.
I run the FBXL Network including FBXL Search, FBXL Social, FBXL Lemmy, FBXL Lotide, and FBXL Video. Mostly for my own use because after having my heart broken by too many companies I want to be in control of my own world.
I also wrote The Graysonian Ethic: Lessons for my unborn son, now on Amazon

Perforated galvanized plumbers strapping. While most of my equipment is wall mountable, I used exactly this sort of thing for all the power supplies.
Likely similar to whatever you’re planning to use with the plastic strap, but more metal is more betterer
You think that’s all they produced?
WE GOTTA GET THOSE NUMBERS WAY UP QUICK DO SOME COCAINE AND POST ONE HOUR A DAY MORE EACH WEEK UNTIL YOU NEVER STOP. ABP, ALWAYS BE POSTING
If people decentralize and stop hopping on the biggest few instances, that’ll help a lot.
People can then just hang out on smaller instances and federate to other communities, and the load will be spread out a lot more.
I watched the godfather for the first time a few months ago.
It might still be playing.
You’re calling for special privileges based on race and I’m the Nazi for being against it?
Ok.
I’m not a fan of explicit institutional racism, even if it’s done with good intentions.
We tried the “certain people recognized by the government have exceptional powers granted along hereditary lines” thing, and everyone for a while agreed it wasn’t the best.
The computer subsystem and the display subsystem are different, largely independent things. Regardless of what your computer is doing, the system that transports data between the video chip and the LCD will always be sending that data at 60 frames per second. It doesn’t care what your CPU is doing, it’s a bunch of separate independent pieces of hardware. Meanwhile, the rest of your computer is doing the game logic and rendering the frames and sending them to the video memory and that could be happening at any frame rate. Your screen will always be running at 60 hertz, but you could have anything from one frame per second to 3000 frames per second and that just refers to the number of times per second you are updating the frame buffer with new data.
Some video games have a setting called vsync, and what that does is it will limit updating the frame buffer to do so only once while the screen is showing one frame. The benefit of doing this is if you are updating your frame buffer in the middle of drawing a frame, you can have it where half the frame is the previous frame and half of the frame is the next frame, this is called tearing because it looks like the screen is being torn in half.
“no” followed by 28 null characters and a small code payload that’ll crash their server (ok won’t work but it’d be funny)
I’m not opposed to intellectual property because there’s an argument for providing a limited time monopoly to the creators of works to provide incentive to make works public. Without any such incentive, it’s entirely possible that the monetization structures for different works change, for example locking content behind restrictive systems that don’t allow for personal use at all.
The key is “limited time”. If you can’t make your money back in 15 years, then maybe it’s time to make a new thing? The idea that someone should own a thing you made after you’re dead is stupid – how exactly will that promote you to create new works? If you’re dead, your creating days are over except for creating plant food out of your bones and organs.
I put my money where my mouth is, and the legal page of the graysonian ethic specifically lists that the book is put into the public domain or license after Creative Commons CC0 license after 15 years from the date of first publishing.
I have yet to unleash my true diabetes level!
There’s a button in settings to not show bot accounts. I clicked it when I realized how many posts were just reddit mirror bots
Not sure how you sue for something you were successfully sued for in court and pounded into the dirt.
But the threats to science come from all sides as everyone wants the dominant source of truth on their side.:(
11/10 subverting expectations.

Not all, but quite a few in that 20% range.
As we saw in Afghanistan, drones are great but you need boots on the ground to hold territory.
I’m concerned about the first application of crispr to make super soldiers.
A few genes flipped and the army coming out the other side would be terrifying.
Pretty funny, I just canceled my netflix account. Not even for this reason.
