  • If the July 19th Crowdstrike incident had affected Linux rather than Windows, the impact would have been orders of magnitude worse.

    People have so little awareness of how fragile the systems we rely on are - it's not a matter of "if" - it's a matter of "when" we'll see a widespread incident that goes well beyond a mild inconvenience for most.

  • You've explained the mentality - people don't particularly care to know.

    Why would people put in the effort to solve a problem they're barely aware of, and don't understand - particularly if putting the effort in to understand and address won't even solve that problem? If you want to add problems to people's lives, you need to tone it all the way down.

    Don't get me wrong though - you're fighting the good fight - and meeting people where they're at helps, so I guess this is a decent place to start.

  • ...and as long as the system governing the police is a problem is broken, the police will be a problem.

    You're not wrong, but a bunch of fragile-egoed, perpetually terrified simpletons armed with state authority and a gun shouldn't be associated with safety.

  • Breathing - famous for being optional for those that would like to live.

    Yes, there have only been around 3 people killed by them (largely because they're shy, aquatic, and somewhat uncommon), and intervention can be made to stop them from killing you, but they're one of the most toxic animals on the planet, and are unquestionably deadly.

  • It would have been uncivil - and as we all know, the most effective way to fight fascism is by letting them run roughshod over you while smugly pointing out how correct you are, and that they're breaking the rules while adjusting your policies to be a watered down version of the fascists, exciting the fascists, liberals, and leftists at the end time.

    If the Dems get another election and don't pick a left populist like Sanders, they're finished.
