Laurel Raven

Only thing I knew about him before all of this was him trying to get rid of all bike lanes in Quebec (probably a bit of an exaggeration, but he’s actively trying to make it harder to use transportation that’s not a car with reasons that boil down to feelings, so, not a lot of respect for him outside how he’s handling the tariff threats)

Sounds like some really shit quality K

… I’ll see myself out

And he actually likes Tesla

And he wonders why NASA turned him down for bringing those astronauts back…

I’m sure he already calls his lawyers every day at 3 AM while half blitzed on K to pitch exactly that

I don’t think there’s any law requiring that

Not that it would matter if there was, mind you, seeing as there’s a whole thing in the Constitution about not having insurrectionists who broke their oath to uphold the Constitution be allowed to ever hold elected office again, and well…

They can bleep it…

On top of that, even the server setup they talked about wouldn’t actually cost that much energy to run, because that’s not all that will be running on it. That physical host will likely have dozens or even hundreds of servers running on it, and the small menu serving webserver will account for hardly any of the power draw from the hosts.

Oh, and I almost forgot: the company is going to have a website anyway, what company today serving the public doesn’t? Adding a page or two isn’t going to raise the power consumption in any measurable way if at all.

What a coincidence that those exact systems are the ones they’re torching…

Was going to say, it’s West if you go far enough

This is my thought… Don’t hide it, really, more like toss a blanket over that part while people get settled. Most will stick with the defaults (whether a single default like lemmy.world or regional defaults like lemmy.ca), but they’ll get the option if that’s something they want to change later (I do wish there was a way to move instances rather than having to make a new account, that might also help improve adoption… “Just go with this one while you settle in and move when you know where you want to go”)

Sounds like they were right

Zen browser is pretty interesting too

He should agree to it, then back out after the war is ended claiming he never agreed to it, or whatever excuses Trump uses to never pay contractors

I also don’t enjoy using words like fascist and Nazi and genocide and coup, and will happily stop using them when they stop being relevant and accurate

Unfortunately, they are accurate and relevant, so I guess I’m stuck using those words

Except the current “president” isn’t constitutionally eligible to hold the office after inciting insurrection, so no, it really isn’t legitimate even now

“Gourd Fuckwad” works for me

He can’t be reelected anyway, Cali has a 2-term limit for governors and this is his second term

You just don’t understand his brilliance, he’s clearly playing 5D tic tac toe
