Huh? I showed how a simple change to US and UK election laws can topple the two party system overnight.

Literally, if there are only two private parties run by private organizations of rich people, they merely have to divide us and conquer us. We are being puppeteered by a bunch of corporations that use identity politics to keep the poor fighting amongst themselves and people SLURP THAT SHIT UP BECAUSE THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM CODIFIES IT INTO EVERY DECISION.

Feudalism with a few more steps.

Interesting point, though and I can see what you mean.

Truly, if my comment were to make sense, I’d have to say they have “combined” and conquered.

Very against it.

It’s by design. Divide and conquer has been the playbook since they (anti-labor think tanks like the Progressive Policy Institute and others that seek to keep labor infighting) started studying group psychology.

Defederation from hexbear.net happened quickly and with very little debate. The mods on world ADORE censorship. They are almost worse than even the censorship on Reddit. If you’re too left or right wing for them, you’re going to have a very bad time. It’s forced centrism through putting up unavoidable blinders and it is the kneejerk reaction of that instance (and a few others).

Same with hexbear. They banned me for not being left wing enough. This behavior is more toxic than a place where all are allowed to communicate IN GOOD FAITH and are only censored or banned when it is ABSOLUTELY the only option to move forward. Hiveminds are bad. Banning people and defederation is utterly anathema to the intended purpose of the fediverse. Anyone who supports censorship should take a step back and think humbly and deeply about what they are doing, smugly preventing others from expressing their opinions.

Are you sure? In my experience, they defederate from each other.

When I went to Thailand, Grab was EVERYWHERE.

Wait until you realize that it’s not just Republicans….

Wow. Super interesting. I hadn’t realized how much the code had evolved to use high level libraries for the Pi Pico.

Very cool! I can think of so many applications for this.

😂 Someone doesn’t understand what followers are. Have a great day. Blocking you now.

Maybe you’re just in a bad mood because I really didn’t make a big thing about it. Just thought it was odd that you’d lie about it. You’d have to have either lied (or misremembered if your panties are still bunched up) because this has been company policy since the first Apple Store opened in like 2001.

I’ve been going to Apple stores since they opened. In fact, in a brand new Apple Store back in like 2007, I wanted to demo the software “Shake” for my company. I distinctly remember an employee installing it for me (since they wouldn’t be stupid enough to leave admin access open).

It has been this way since the first Apple Store opened…

I’m confused about why you felt the need to make it up. Such a weird lie.

I wish him bad health:

I’ve never seen them password protected in any way, you have admin access.

This is 100% untrue.

You know they’re in for a decline when they’re naming products like Boeing.

An ad. I’ve seen them on reddit and I think I speak for everyone here when I say I don’t want them here.

This is a fucking advertisement.

yes it is…

I’m actually a programmer. There are ways to compensate us that doesn’t force people to pay rent for our work.
