If only the ‘opposition’ party wasn’t spineless. Y’know how the j6ers did their coup? Republicans paid for it.

Alright, well the only way they are getting promptly removed is if average Americans all decide they need to go to DC to physically do it.

Luigi was a product of that, its already happened.

If you can search the internet good and can read the arch wiki you’ll be fine. If you’ve been playing on computers and maybe modding some games you’ll also be fine. The command line is only scary cause we are used to visuals.

Yeah that was it. I was thinking of the end since that part jyst left me staring blank at the screen processing it for a whole ass minute. God I should replay that

Sort of, in Soma you are all already uploaded and there are no “humans” walking around anymore. Your perspective changes 3 times I think during play. Really drives home questions on perception and existence. Great game everyone should play it.

Well, speaking of being agentic, we can do much more than that collectively. Together we can deny them this privilege they so enjoy. Whether legislatively or through direct action.

I gave in and just made a fluxer account. I’ll just self-host that when they relaunch the docs.

The only problem I see are my non-techie friends aren’t used to the skype style calling anymore. They want a voice channel that is persistent for dropping in and out

I’d argue its completely relevant as they are trying to save face here. Anyone who has somehow made it to 2026 without a hostile relationship to corporations (most red and blue team in America) will probably take this as a sign to come back for now.

Gajim is one. Dino is another (I think). You just need to make sure the client has Jingle compatability (xmpp plugin) for streaming video. A lot let you connect to multiple.xmpp servers

XMPP with their myriad of gnu-ified clients.

Too late biiiiiiiiiitch we already had our exodus.

Good, maybe you should run more OpenClaw so it can trash your shit and stop you from fucking up the world.

Every single one of these places except for maybe fucking discord already had parental controls. Fucking Roblox had pretty good parental controls. Why did none of this laws just say “hey this has to be obvious to setup if the account age is set under this limit” if ot was about protecting kids? Because its not about protecting kids.

Im about to try to self host stoat. I’m really feeling like spinning up 3 or 4 of the new services and trying each to see which one or mixture works best. If anyone else is doing this we should start a megathread

Maybe Ted Kaczynski was right in a way.

Really feeling the victim blaming here when they made the devices into virtual heroine

Why do we tolerate these people?
