Compatability is less a problem than missing security patches. Nobody needs an army of infected bots attached to the net.

Time to renew the membership again. I wonder if we can set up some sort of cache and relay system to help defray the costs for their web streams. You know, kind of a fediverse broadcasting network system...
Sweet, let everyone on the interwebs do the training of some massive model that'll then be controlled by a gov entity or some commercial mega corp...
Maybe if they didn't ask if 'they would travel to visit a deported ms-13 member' to pull the usual thing of presuming something a fact. It's like someone who asks 'when did you stop beating your wife?', there's no answer that doesn't imply the accusations is true.
The only reason you're still alive is because some else has decided to let you live...
As much as it might be a grand idea, it won't be possible. I was in the unenviable spot of having to keep a very close watch on one of my kids activities for safety reasons, they will find a way to meet up with people unless it's an outright whitelist only, and in that case they just go to some public wifi to go around it. There are plenty of sites out there that people are not commonly aware of that get used and traded in person that anyone trying to do basic category filters is already lost to.
Ah, been quite a while since I interacted with any of them personally, like when my middle kid was born ago so it's a bit fuzzy. I recall WIC was pretty specific lists like you get 2 milks and one cereal and one thing of eggs...
I'd need some examples to get what you mean here. My experiences, both personal and simply observed, is that you can you can roughly split both conservatives and liberals into two sub-groups, although the distinction on the liberal side is a lot more fuzzy.
There's the emotive/moralizing side that fight based on what they feel rather than any concrete justification. What's right is decided simply by an assumption of how the world should work, either collaboratively or selfishly looking out for yourself only.
Then there are the logical logical arguments. On the conservative side these end up being a lot more in the form of 'I am right, you need to prove otherwise' while liberals (myself guilty of it as well) will go through these elaborate deliberations backing one point with another and somehow hoping to convince these people who have already decided they're right of their error.
If you've ever tried beating your head into a brick wall you might recognize the feeling that last one, but it's hardly an obstruction to dialogue, just a frustration of trying to engage rationally with largely irrational beings.
Isn't that the case to some extent already? At least I know the WIC program has certain allowed items for it, so kind of presuming SNAP has similar policies.
Stupid thing is that it's the humanity and empathy of the left that is both the draw and the weakness of the movement.
Conservatives can come into leftist discourse spaces and either pose as the extreme leftists you describe, or even just the more reasonable end of the conservatives (non facist/maga types, rare as they are any more) an they'll be engaged with in good faith. Since they're ultimately not there for a proper discussion though it results in nothing more than creating chaos and arguments
Liberal/leftists who walk into conservative spaces are greeted with scorn and derision, treated as lunatics from the start not worth listening to. Since the left would generally be coming in with honest intent though at best they waste their time shouting into an established echo chamber, or worse get convinced that there's a good middle ground to work towards.
Except for those who know the timing of his next tariff tantrum where they can take advantage of the market reaction.
One of the interesting conundrums of Linux at large is there are so many flavors of it. If you generically search for 'how to ... In Linux' you'll probably get things for Ubuntu, maybe Mint or RedHat, but good luck with the 2000 other distros that you see on a list.
Conversely if you do the same for Windows or Mac it's just a matter of a few recent versions, and half the time fixes would be applicable to any given one of them.
