@jonah that issue with media on the server I brought to your attention a few weeks ago is occurring again.
@phoenix what a clown show
@l0wk3y is it Trump's military or the US national guard? I'm not sure you're aware, but DC is a federal territory.
@JoYo this can't be fucking real.
@JoYo I think our generation already has Kleenexes and lotion
@astheroth didn't he kill lots of people though?
"Its enormous headlines, glaring pictures and oversimplified text hit the senses and entered men’s consciousness without any necessity for an intermediary process of reason, like food shot through the rectum, requiring no digestion."
Not much has changed in the last 100 years, but we aren't old enough to remember, so we are convinced that the problems we live with are new.
@rw what they did
@JoYo honestly I think a lot of what passes for "progressive" these days does a good job scaring off the normal people all on it's own. But yeah, every political faction points at their opponents every chance they get hoping to scare the center into picking their side. You've got one side telling you what you're allowed to say out loud and another that says things like "the US is founded on judeo-christian values". I refuse to play that game.
@rw problem
@greypilgrim
There's a creative element, it is a creative process. You can incorporate art into engineering as long as the functional aspect is not modified to accommodate personal expression. Function can be beautiful on its own, but the beauty comes from function.
Imagine an engine. If the designer sacrificed function to incorporate some art, you wouldn't buy it, but if he engraved surface designs it would be fine.
@walruslifestyle @fribbledom
@JoYo that is fucking wild man.
@walruslifestyle
Code should not be an expression of thought, code is supposed to be an expression of intent and function. Painting and music and sculpture and dance are for expression of thought. Building things is engineering, not art.
@fribbledom
@JoYo you in DC? Is it pretty crazy there?
@chano_san FYI the "peer to peer hosting" you were talking about is IPFS and yes, it exists independent of LBRY.
@gcrkrause lol you prove my point, I've already said once I'm opposed to fascism, but it is not enough. I must join the cult or be excommunicated. Alright dude, you have a nice life too.
@gcrkrause dude there's no reason to get angry. We are still friends (on the internet anyway). We just have a disagreement about something. It should happen all the time between people who talk about things.
That 1985 Philadelphia bombing is bad, no doubt. But I'd make some points: 1) it was 35 years ago 2) every major city in the US is currently experiencing social unrest, as opposed to one example in one city, 3) MOVE was a left wing organization.

I do not recognize anyone’s right to one minute of my life. Nor to any part of my energy. Nor to any achievement of mine. No matter who makes the claim, how large their number or how great their need.
