I like the "book 5 | pdf: 37" part it makes it look like you're quoting the Bible.

Linux ain't the problem there. Usability is more of that nonsense thought up by corporations to scare people. Computers are tricky, whether Windows or Linux, and the only reason Windows is more popular is they've been installing it on people's computers without asking for decades. Honestly most people don't even have computers these days. All they get to have is a phone.

Under classical logic, a paradox is a result of faulty premises, and proof that the premises cannot be true. It's how you make any logical proof, by assuming the null hypothesis, and showing how it implies A and ¬A. It's true for the liar's paradox, and for Russell's paradox (sorry Russell).

So my conclusion is "This sentence is false" is false. If it was true, then the sentence would be both true and not true. By the contrapositive, "This sentence is false" cannot be true, and cannot be a logical premise.

Never heard of dialetheism.

How do your users know which Public Key belongs to someone they want to communicate with?

Put it in their profile. Seriously that's it. You can use a profile metadata field if you want to be formal about it.

Why would you need a history of what keys were whose?

Gee, 3/4 of the political compass are authoritarian scumbags? Almost as if it's a shit metric designed by authoritarian scumbags for jerking each other off about owning the libs.

Wulfy... saying someone cannot be right because they haven't agreed with you yet is an appeal to authority. People might be wrong, but they don't have to adopt AI in order to have an informed opinion.

If you're asking me how to design a prompt for a particular AI, then I don't know a single thing about it. If you're asking me whether AI is a good idea or not, I can be more sure of that answer. Feel free to prove me wrong, but don't say my opinion doesn't matter.

Have you seen the data centers being built just north of your house? No? Well it doesn't matter you still might have a point!

We have instancewide admin blocks, so the accounts that would be automatically reported can be blocked preemptively, no report needed. That can be both good and bad... but pick a sheltered instance and you shouldn't get harassed. How would automatic reporting even work? I don't recall, but doesn't the admin interface let you specify keywords that alert the admins in a post? Is that what you mean?

Theists roll their eyes at that, because nobody really thinks their god is omniscient or omnipotent. They may say so, either to deceive the nonbelievers, or out of ignorance of what omnimax really means, but every religion I can think of has had a fallible god, sometimes very fallible. There are the notoriously arrogant Greek gods, the stupidly belligerant Norse gods, the Jewish/Christian god foiled by iron chariots, and deceptive serpents, even Buddhists with their infallible smug asshole of a god have as a saying "If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him."

Fact of the matter is no god is omni-anything, since that would prove they don't exist, and cannot be believed. Gods don't have to be omniscient. They only have to be way more knowledgable and aware than anyone else. They don't have to be all powerful, only way more powerful than anything mere mortals could muster. So saying "Aha! But your god can't possibly be all powerful, because then he could make a stone that he couldn't lift! Checkmate, theists!" falls flat, in the face of (outside of boasting) doctrine basically saying that their god makes mistakes and can't do everything.

Mower, fine. Weed eater, fine but you better not be using a plastic spool. Leaf blower........ what good are they? It's easy to rake up leaves. Getting them in bags is what's hard. The vibration from the leaf blower would do more damage to your joints than raking. Leaf blowers don't do anything else! There is no purpose do them! WHY ARE THEY A THING AAAAA

I don't know about "better" but it will surely be useful IF people around here mention it. I think it boosts posts that mention it and doesn't follow anyone. Dunno what I was thinking there.

Like many abuse victims, they apologize and don't even see how bad it is. I see... things are... bad on all fronts. We need right to repair, and abolish trademark and copyright, and idea patents. And friends near us.

Oh, we could make the game demolition themed. Like you start in some city, and have to take down all the buildings and revivify the soil, remove toxic waste. Maybe like Simcity except in reverse, where you take a sprawling paved hellscape and turn it into compact multistory public apartments surrounded by happiness and greenery.

Like, you get the big corporation to close and move out, and as your city sinks into economic depression, everything starts getting better (if poorer). Or even big cities split up into smaller more manageable towns and villages.
