As far as inspirations go, this one is kinda dark.

I got one a very long time ago, when it was cheap and seemed like a good investment in an up-and-coming ecosystem. It's worked out for me, but I wouldn't recommend it for anyone else, at this point.

I'm just waiting for them to find a way to reneg on the pass and then I'm off to Jellyfin like everyone else.

It's a memestock now. Aspirational tech-bros are buying it because they want to own the libs, too.

People are down voting you, so I'll come in to offer some support. Leftist purity tests have saddled us with Donald Trump.

Neither does the average American. We are a nation of temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

Isn't that kinda what's called for, here?

What does "woke" mean, when you say it? It used to refer to awareness of the existence of institutional racism. Does "anti-woke" refer to a lack of awareness, or a lack of concern? Would you argue that that would be a good thing?

Not only is that free, but I can't imagine a better alternative. And they would have the same issue with allocation on prem. WithOUT tagging and Cost Explorer.

I see the same thing. And as your down-votes suggest, Lemmy isn't much better. People seem to miss out on the fact that, just because one side is very wrong, that doesn't mean the other is entirely flawless. The left is now blowing sunshine up their own posteriors, and demanding others do the same. They become what they despise.

If they're is anything my we've learned from this last election cycle, it's that the general public will trade superior and nuanced for inferior and simple every single time.

Because Bluesky is less evil than X. At least for now.

If we're being honest, they're both echo chambers, but one of decidedly more malevolent than the other.

Harris did not lose because she didn't pull left enough. Lefties had nowhere else to go. She lost because Trump lied better

Well, he doesn't need a many as he used to...

My Gen Z son says these are Alphas and he doesn't want to be associated with them.

This is truth. The old adage about throwing your vote away isn't exaggeration, or even opinion. In a First Past the Post election, is just math. And math doesn't care about anyone's sense of moral righteousness.

I suppose that depends on your point of view.

Turning office space into living space is often mentioned in discussions like this. It should be noted that converting the space is not as easy as it seems. In particular, moving the plumbing infrastructure to support individual bathrooms and kitchens is extremely challenging and it makes some projects impracticable.
