Why should I feel sorry for you and answer your question?

Oracle or someone worse would buy them. That’s how capitalism works.

GitHub definitely would and has in the past. YouTube-dl is on GitHub and gets a pass because it is used by researchers and archivists, both are fair use. forgejo.org would let you be your own fedi-github and might be worth checking out (could be easier than designing a plugin system and additional repos).

Consider that many people who watched the Joker and idolize him didn’t get that the movie was speaking against the character. Fascists don’t understand camp, and so they don’t get that it’s a critique unless the director explicitly tells them so.

We can keep telling ourselves Mark Cuban’s “opportunity economy” was good enough but objectively it was a flop with working class voters. Either it was a messaging failure or it wasn’t populist enough, Bernie is saying it is the latter. If it was a messaging failure, then we’re likely to conclude it is because our media landscape is toxic. Bernie would agree and say that is why we need a populist message to cut through.

NAFTA and Wall Street bailouts come to mind.

In regards to Bernie, his premise is that wealth inequality is the core problem, which means tax the rich until they can’t have an outsized influence on our politics.

Oh, I think the people getting rid of Lisa Kahn have other ideas about competition.

You might be on to something in the sense that coming back with a more inclusive response is a better approach. I don’t think that makes them “right” though.

When the situation changes would you prefer they are part of a union or solidarity group or that they know to vote 3rd party in a past election?

Lots of people foolishly think political parties can learn lessons.

You think the political system is going to someday learn it’s lesson and work for you?

Whoever is elected is our opponent, the sooner you all accept that fact the better. Doesn’t mean you should pick a tougher boss level.

They still have elections in Russia /s

Political parties don’t learn, they respond to power.

It does if there is a pattern of killing children and those who respond to medical emergencies. We all know they target the ambulances. Seems there’s a terrorist behind every kid, uninhabited graveyard, and hospital. History will not be kind.

There’s literally video of a child getting cut down, then when help comes for the child they blow them up with a bomb. That’s some psychopath shit.

Yeah, translating “size of their contribution” to a dollar amount is going to be inherently political. If they’re leaving it open ended to let projects figure it out then that could go poorly…

You summed it up correctly. The thing is the presidential race used to be a horse show, but that format was somehow easily hijacked by a rodeo clown.

Reading their solutions is interesting; wanted to call out the following because it plays nice if you don’t agree with their whole prescription:

Don’t dilute the Open Source brand. Post-Open will never call itself Open Source, because it has different rules. The Post Open license actually enforces that.

That would have to do with Isreal’s domestic politics and how invading these other countries somehow made the prime minister more popular. 🤦

Yeah, obviously it’s the user’s fault for not holding crypto correctly. This is why my crypto is stored on a floppy disk that can only be read by my 8086 computer with no Internet connectivity. If you loose money it’s always your fault for not being prepared.
