This country's so fucked. All that will remain by the time Trump is done with the government is the police state and a military.

As an entry-level subscription, the new tier won’t offer several benefits in the full YouTube Premium ($13.99 per month) subscription, like downloads, background play, or the ability to watch music videos ad-free.
I wonder how much electricity is wasted on this alone. Probably so many people leaving their screens powered on just to continue listening to something without it stopping.
I've been paying for Mullvad for a while and didn't realize this was even a thing until this announcement.
This is the one program my dad explicitly uses in the Microsoft suite of programs that I thought, "Ok fine we'll keep paying for this shit." Time to start looking into alternatives. Microsoft... Even when I stop using their software they still cause me endless wasted time.
The one thing we can be certain of is if a genuinely progressive candidate arises in the next presidential primary Third Way will be there behind the scenes to fervently work against that person.
I would love decent RISC-V hardware
Third Way’s entire purpose is to find “centrist” (read: conservative) ways of setting policy agenda for democrats. Always punching leftward, of course. It’s just a much less effective clone of the federalist society, staffed by losers
Why can’t we be critical of democrats by being selective in the primaries?
lol even when you try to do this Pelosi will push the thumb on the scale to get Cuellar, one of the shittiest Democrats (and that's really saying something) reelected over challenger Jessica Cisneros. Or you can even win the primary and then the state party will allow you to languish because you're a working class demsoc instead of a trusted middle-manager of capital. The Dems need people like Cuellar, Sinema, and Manchin so that whenever they have a majority they can still sit around and do fucking nothing until the Republicans come in and shift everything further rightward. Dems love this. Ratchet effect is real. Fuck the Democratic Party. At least the Republicans are honest about how much they hate us.
Hell yeah. My favorite shell for almost 5 years, now. It was definitely an adjustment trying to get away from Bash-isms, and everything shell-related online essentially expects Bash. But it's just like their tagline says, it's a shell for the 90s. It's great.
The problem with Markdown is it kind of sucks. CommonMark didn't even defragment the markdown world, since there are numerous incompatible extensions. It seems like gfm is the best among them, or at least the most featureful.
I know there are other options like RST or AsciiDoc, but I don't know which among them is actually "the best."
Firefox with like 10 different settings checkboxes unticked through its settings to disable phoning home, prevent sponsored suggestions, prevent recommendations, etc. + ublock origin extension installed, obviously.
It used to be just an install and go ordeal. Now you have to have all these caveats. I used to send technical and interaction to Mozilla but given their terms changes I can’t be confident in them with even that much information anymore.
Final thought is I don’t see what Mozilla’s endgame is. It costs a lot of money to develop a competitive and impactful web browser, I understand that much. Where are they supposed to get their money from? Well. I don’t get paid millions a year to solve this problem, but it seems pretty obvious the current leadership have made their minds up to make Firefox yet another advertisement browser.
