re: uspol
@strawberryfieldsforever You mean the repulicans? I was saying the "god-king" part.. they worship Trump as infallible, as do the democrats with Biden.
The quote made it sound like democrats were cool with criticizing biden but the republicans worshiped trump like a god. But in my experience if you even just say Biden is horrible then you are basically a nazi.

@strawberryfieldsforever said no democrat ever.... the republican side is accurate though.
A list of decentralised web services!
@DavidBond well that counts as a shortie by every conceivable definition :)
@Co oops had to edit that post.
@Co It isnt that surprising.. just look at the conservatives, they deny science as a matter of course and are mostly just conspiracy theorists at this point without a shred of respect.... Then liberals, they just want to assume everyone is a nazi and turn everything into drama and are completely intolerable in their own right.... is it really suprising these two groups wind up picking candidates like Biden or Trump?
@Co there isnt much to like about it thats for sure
I have no issues with billionaires but honestly Bezos sounds like an entitled little prick.
Happy to hear this... its time to move on.

@valleyforge I'd say the reverse. The contents were shit 2/10 .. his speaking ability was better than usual.. 5/10
@valleyforge The speech itself wasnt bad in terms of him saying things we agree with.. the problem is he is acting like the problem is that we got out.. no the problem is that he did a horrible job in executing the withdraw..
Lets face it, he fucked up big time, made every excuse that he was right,a nd blamed everyone but himself. As usual he said nothing of value or content other than to praise himself and bash Trump, which apparently makes for a good speech or something.
@valleyforge Just be thankful he remembered to turn the video on at all.
@lucifargundam It is rare, but not so rare it cant be found. It is the defining quality of my friend group as it is one of the first things I look for.
@SmartFella there is plenty to hate about biden.. I try to prioritize :)
For anyone not watching the live presidential address here is the summary:
There are terrorists in other countries too, therefore I did everything right and planned on this! Also its all Trump's fault.
So I guess Biden is going to ride the Trump train his whole time in office by the looks of it... Man takes no accountability. I might respect him if he did.
@amnesiac Indeed... he is literally flying in from Camp David to give the talk... Funny he is on vacation in Camp David considering the crisis that is unraveling...
@hans_w BSD is a great compromise if thats what your into. Its just being a much smaller community it has much less support, both in terms of hardware/software compatibility, and in terms of getting help or finding how tos.
Generally I'd say that plays pretty strongly against *BSD
