I run my own instance so that i can take a little control over the drivel that scrolls past my eyes. Far right ideologies don't deserve a platform or an audience.

Is there a running list of bigot instances that I can block?

Someone ran 'systemctl restart networking' while SSH'd into the probe.

That AMA was honestly hilarious... I don't know what i actually expected, but this was better. Not only did the CEO go after Christian in the comments, but he also admitted that reddit isn't profitable, lol. This may not seal the deal for reddit, but i wouldn;t be surprised if spez was out of there just based on this PR disaster.

This is layered... Not only will the kids grow up incorrectly believing that the earth is flat, they are also going to grow up resenting people that disagree with what their parents say, eventually they may even resent their parents for forcing their false beliefs on them and making them look foolish in front of their peers.

Any of the camera doorbells or security systems that ship all the footage to their own cloud. It’s unsettling to have devices with cameras semi controlled by a third party like that.

Unfortunate that he is going to get away with being a piece of shit just because he has mental health issues, just like Kanye…

I have mental health issues, but if I were an asshole to everyone around me, I wouldn’t have anyone around me anymore…. Having a lot of money offsets any sort of obligation to be a decent human.

What a sick thing to say…

When you care more about profits than people, that’s the kind of slavery apologist shit that you say… just disgusting…

I don’t think very highly of a cloud based app asking me for my credentials for every other cloud based app I used.

No, this is just how an out of touch rich dude thinks whenever anyone has criticisms of him or the platform he thinks he owns.

From what I’ve seen it’s a bell curve most of the time. People grow up and stop being little twats and eventually get to the point where they start to become big twats.

Bands aren’t disappearing, it’s just that DIY is more inclusive from both a fiscal standpoint and enjoyment standpoint. I don’t think many bands want to grow to the point of doing stadium tours and having the stress of appeasing their labels, managers, venues, merch sweatshops, etc… To me, music seems to be about music again and many up and coming bands are avoiding the industry in favor of the artistry.

The fact that the favorite OS of the tech conservative is an Arch based distro and and a Debian based distro instead of pure Arch or Debian makes this meme inaccurate.
