I'm on both, I like both. Been liking Reddit less and less over the years, I expect at some point I'll stop going, but for now it's still okay.

El Salvador has higher standards than the American government. I should be surprised, but not really I guess.

At the root of this comment chain is a proposal to have laws passed about this.

People can set up their web servers however they like. It's on them to do that, it's their web servers. I don't think there should be legislation about whether you're allowed to issue perfectly ordinary HTTP requests to a public server, let the server decide how to respond to them.

Pedro Duque wrote a diary entry in orbit in a Soyuz capsule using an ordinary ballpoint pen specifically to disprove this. Don't know what went wrong with your pen, cheap ballpoint pens fail sometimes regardless of what orientation they're in.

And Wikimedia, in particular, is all about publishing data under open licenses. They want the data to be downloaded and used by others. That's what it's for.

"Genocide? What genocide? The Palestinians self-deported after being given a tremendous deal, the best."

The thing is, this feeling that we only have two choices? That's exactly what our First-Past-The-Post system wants us to believe.

No, that's exactly what our first-past-the-post system gives us. It's not a question of belief, it's a mathematical reality.

There are probably a few ridings out there with plausible three-way battles where one could influence it in any of those ways. And there are many more ridings where one party is already a shoo-in, and in those cases you can vote your conscience as well knowing that it at least won't negatively impact anything and will "send a message" in whatever small way the popular vote matters. But in many ridings there are only two plausible choices, and one of those choices could quite possibly lead to the ruin of Canada. This is the reality of first-past-the-post systems. I hate it, but it's what we currently have.

This is me. My riding is a tossup Conservative/Liberal, with NDP currently given a pity 1% chance of winning and nobody else even given that.

This means that as angry as I am at the Liberals for the FPTP stab-in-the-back, that very FPTP system now requires that I vote Liberal for the sake of my country.

I am not happy about this. But in times of war you sometimes need to do unpleasant things you're not happy about.

And it's been around for 17 years now so if it's a Ponzi scheme it's one of the most amazingly long-running ones ever.

People are free to dislike cryptocurrency and to not use it, but they should at least recognize that there are people who do use it and who do like it.

Note: Anyone who yells "bingo" has revealed that they know a suspicious amount about subversive activities and should be reported to the authorities immediately.

So you think that typing the prompt “convert this photo ghibli style” constitutes art?

No, I think that anyone who declares that they know what art is or is not is wrong.

Art is different things to different people, there's no objective determination.
