Removing them isn't enough. Over 77 million people saw his previous term, looked at him now, and said "Yep! I want more of that!" And the media being complicit doesn't help, either.

Ooh, nice.

Or Malbolge.

Law is typically enforced at the end of a gun. If the government won't do anything to stop these people, someone else will.

Same applies to geothermal.

lava is really hot

use lava to boil water

use steam to turn a generator

As opposed to all those other times in history that the Internet existed.

I've been trying. Unfortunately, people in power seem totally unresponsive to the needs of the people. Don't know what the optimal solution for that is, but historically, the solution is usually something you're not allowed to encourage on social media.

Apparently the Horipad's gonna be that. I think I'll stick with the Dualsense.

Fucking Threads users

Click their name. I'm confused too.

No. 538 gave Trump the best chances out of any model, which Nate was criticized heavily for. 1-in-3 chances, which is what Trump had in 2016, are still pretty likely.

What is there to think about? I complain about people who support Soviet-style dictatorships having full control over online platforms moderating exactly as one would expect, and I get told by Random Guy On The Internet #368,452 that I'm apparently a hypocrite because wanting action to be taken to stop authoritarians from controlling social networks makes me the real authoritarian or something. All this to "suit my agenda", which in this case is wanting to be able to say that authoritarians are bad.

God forbid I find arguments like that incoherent and unworthy of taking seriously.

I prefer the XKCD map. Really illustrates that whole "empty space" thing pretty well:

He was added as a mod pretty much for shits and giggles, he didn't do any actual moderation. Still, he allowed the sub and many others like it, so very much the second option.

I'm so bored of that line. At least come up with something different.

I know, right? It's like he's an incredibly shitty sci-fi villain.
