I'm surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.

Well played.

With knuckles? lol

Lol, what's with the hand?

My area is unincorported (just outside of city limits). A portion of my property taxes go toward the schools.

Remember when we were all laughing at McCarthy because he wanted to be Speaker so badly and kept failing, over and over, to get enough votes? And how it was funny when he got ousted because of the rules he had to agree to in order to secure the votes from the crazies? And laughing because that, predictably, bit him in the ass?

I feel like that stopped being funny when we got Mike "Shares his porn watchlist with his son" Johnson as Speaker. At least McCarthy was a politician and not a crazy, religious zealot two heartbeats from the presidency.

Might want to post to !politicalmemes@lemmy.world or !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world . Prob gonna be (correctly) removed here for being political. Hilarious (and sadly true) though!

Goddamnit.

I don't have (or plan to have) kids, but I'm happy to pay the local taxes (and vote 'yes' on the various levies) that fund the schools because I don't want a bunch of stupid adults later. But shoving religion in makes me want to start looking for some kind of opt-out loophole. I definitely don't want my tax money going toward religious indoctrination.

Black Mirror. Should. Not. Be. A. Roadmap.

Cunk on Earth also did a similar bit with Beethoven.

Does Charlie Brooker have some kind of enchanted typewriter that can influence the world or something?

To be fair, he said the same thing when someone asked him what he thought of Sesame Street.

If true, that's like the one thing about them I wouldn't judge :shrug:. I've run more on less hardware than that. lol

Yeah, I don't think the lack of a free ethernet port is their biggest obstacle here.

I think the minimum deposit for most of them to even talk to you is $10,000 or $100,000. I realize that's a big range, but I can't remember if there were 4 or 5 zeroes when I did some cursory research. Either way, too rich for my blood.

I do that already and have for years...? .doc and .docx work just fine.

Edit: The only issue I've had is one place requiring a specific font of all things. Was able to just install a free version of that, and was all set.

My understanding from the articles I read is that the whole platform ran on PHP 5.5, and porting from a version that old to current is no small task.

If they do, hopefully they flock to a single instance which is easily blockable

Harvard: You first.

A deadly blow?

I hope so.

Will a copycat spring up?

History says yes, but if a loving god truly exists, one won't.

Where are the users going in the meantime?

Hopefully outside.

Does any of this really matter?

Only if they bring their bullshit to the fediverse.
