One of the biggest things about being a leftist is being right about stuff before it’s considered polite.

If the democrats hadn’t been pussies for two decades before Trump and effectively welded power, we wouldn’t have had Trump.

Look, I’m voting for Harris, and even as a leftist I’m half excited by it. But let’s not pretend a mainstream democratic party politician is anything other than a capitalist. She might have good policy ideas, ones that will genuinely help people, but she’s still a capitalist.

If you’re on Linux, dockstarter automates a lot of the docker set up.

If I had one political wish, it would be that conservatives are forced to live in the world they want to create.

Millennials aren’t going to be the savior you think they are. Like, I want to be hopeful, but I see a lot of Millennials my age just acting scared. They’ve finally gotten some stability, they’ve finally gotten some comfort, and they’re incredibly loss averse. I see a bunch of people my age bought a house in the suburbs posting in the neighborhood Facebook group every time there’s a loud bang “did anyone hear that noise? What was it?” with people lamenting about how the neighborhood is going downhill.

Ten years ago, millennials were pissed the fuck off and were ready to burn shit to the ground. The ruling class gave them just enough to be scared of losing it.

Tell that to our centrists. They hate our left more than our right.

Tech bros reinvent broadcast TV.

Have we gotten that stupid?

Something something “these regulations are written in blood” anecdote something something.

To be fair, the original warcraft was supposed to be an rts using the Warhammer IP.

I wish Buffalo was closer in size to Cleveland or Pittsburg, but being within driving distance of Toronto and to a lesser extent NYC (on top of the aforementioned Cleveland and Pittsburg) is pretty friggin great.

Right. But based on context clues, it’s implied that the full meaning of the post was “Volvo did something for the public good, therefor Volvo is good. Volvo is a Swedish company. Swedish companies are good. Sweden is in Europe. European countries are good. American countries are bad. Novo Nordisk did something bad. It must be an American company.”

Admittedly, my mistake was not being more clear about the point of my response which is that geography is irrelevant - capitalism and all companies are evil (or at best, amoral).

Novo Nordisk is a Danish company, not American.

I’ll answer your question if you answer mine.

Will I vote for Biden in 2024? Yeah.

Now, my question: why are you so quick to lick the sweaty taint of a slightly less evil, but still evil, party?

I mean, kudos to you for having the energy to get so far down the list of things that actually matter about climate change that you reach the one person and a few private jets section of the list, but I’d rather use that brain space to play a board game or something.

“properly managed” is carrying a whole lotta weight in that first sentence.

I once dropped a table in the production database. I did not replace it with the same table from staging.

On the bright side, we discovered our vendor wasn’t doing daily backups.

I just… I can’t bring myself to give a shit about Taylor Swift’s airplanes when BP and Shell still exist and capitalism is still the dominant economic system.

Pretty sure “but the democratic party still fuckin sucks” covers all that.

Eh, I’m of two minds about the strike. On the one hand, he got the rail workers their sick days after the fact. On the other, he really pissed me off and threw labor under the bus by making it illegal (again) for them to strike. You can’t be a pro labor president and take away labors most powerful tool.

I don’t know anything about the BBB.

100% with you on Gaza.
