Which one do you think is best for folks who never use voice chat? I run a discord server for my friend group but we really just post text plus funny images and videos. I’d like to migrate away from this corporate nonsense.

Better IRL event features would be extra nice to have but I’m not that picky.

Can’t argue with that. Preach on, brother.

Judean peoples front

It’s the People’s Front of Judea!

Alles gut.

First point, well I hope it helps. I spend a lot of time thinking about OpSec and even I feel pretty screwed.

Second point… well that just sucks. For me the whole point of being here is to do better than reddit. I still think it’s a lot more niche but sometimes that just means the sticks up the asses are different.

For your Postscript, I understand but to be blunt I don’t think the audience who needs that is here at all. But maybe I’m just cynical and think the people who want skin color to matter are a total lost cause. 🤷

Posting from aussie.zone? Ok, world traveler maybe, more power to ya, though a little concerning that being white seems to be noteworthy to you.

Gotta remind you that the US is a very large country, much bigger (in terms of population and infrastructure) than than even Australia. I agree the American experiment has failed, as this fascist takeover has played out slowly over something like 40 years with the goddamn neoliberals helping to pave the way. It’s been supported by a vocal minority; the majority (including where I live in a ‘swing state’) are against it, but apparently even that’s not enough to do anything of consequence. So yeah we’re fucked. Push your countrymen as far from this toxicity as possible. That includes putting heavy restraints on capitalism. Please.

Also you don’t have to censor the word death FYI

Interesting story/event, excellent shot. The composition is kind of like a very modern take on Panini. I can imagine this photo being used in some documentary about the 2020s a half-century from now.

Thanks for posting some quality OC.

I saw one of the videos not long ago. Some of the dipping sauce clearly splashed back toward other riders. That’s rude, but probably not dangerous.

The buddy holding the phone though? Yeah that would suck if it slipped from his hand and hit you in the face at 90 mph (max speed for this coaster).

Backwards compatibility was a main selling point of Windows and is a big part of what made Microsoft successful. This was particularly true in the enterprise world where old apps had to continue working despite an OS upgrade. But it matters at the consumer level too of course. Everyone expects their PC apps to just work, even through major changes like the OS switching from 32 to 64 bit.

So it’s kind of nuts that Microsoft ever considered this optional for their game console in the first place. Obviously they were able to use market dominance and invest lots of capital to make Xbox one of the top console brands regardless. But it’s still dizzying how MS forgot such a core lesson that put them ahead of market competitors for decades.
