Yet another invasion by Big Gay™️

I think it’s kind of ridiculous to take down assets that don’t hurt your bottom line and aren’t being sold for profit and it’s crazy that he doesn’t see it that way too.

This reminds of pbf’s work

As someone who is in Louisiana, a.majority of the population here does not want this shit, gerrymandering here means that the politicians don’t actually represent the population.

I once submitted an issue to a devs GitHub. The apps login page would not load without large bg pictures loading first. I asked if he could add an option to disable it in the settings, as my self hosted site was slow.

I essentially got back, “why would I do that? It’s not an issue for me! Besides the login page should load before the background picture” issue closed

😑😑😑😑

It’s like you’re SO CLOSE to seeing the issue.

Immich is a really good self hosted option

Wild that these comments are excusing a nuke being dropped on a civilian area, that was an atrocity and nothing less.

Part of the enjoyment of a meme is the way it looks, poorly made Photoshop memes are funnier in sometimes

I mean Lemmy thread lol, like a comment thread

I tried saying that on the thread about mastodon announcing they were making a non profit and I got mass down voted

Bruce has tried to do this a few times actually but the court of owls is pretty much the in universe explanation for why Gotham never gets better. Just like the real world, it’s wealthy elites conspiring to make their lives better and the lower classes worse.

I sure hope mastadon turns out better. We need a strong voice advocating for the fediverse.

All I’m saying is generally when those in big tech establish a non profit, it’s for the wrong reasons, or it eventually becomes the wrong reasons. Look at open AI. They had a non profit and and profit side. The non profit side essentially controlled with the for profit side did, then when they ousted the CEO for doing things that were clearly in the interest of profit over the betterment of society, the CEO had set it up so that without him the open AI ship began to sink. Then those on the board that were against him were ousted from the board. It was a hostile takeover.

I’m not saying that’s going to happen with mastadon, I’m just saying they have some key players that are investors and/or long time workers in big tech and it puts a bad taste in my mouth.

If only this is what Reagan actually did

Welp, don’t like that. US nonprofit is a huge misnomer. For the most part they’re used by the wealthy to create businesses that don’t need to pay taxes.

Edit: Not sure why I’m getting mass downvotes. The non profit system in America is where the wealthy go to create tax free income. The CEOs of non profits still get huge salaries. Just seems out of line with the vision of a true non profit IMO. That’s why I call it a misnomer. Non profits are almost never set up to do what they actually say they are trying to do. They’re often just created to get public favor and money laundering.

I find in today’s society it’s easy to lose any reason for doing anything other than “I was told I have to” about halfway through college it really did feel like a scam, like I was getting screwed over and forced to do it anyway. I still believe it’s partially true, but I used the skills I learned in college to help push my personal life goals along.

Ask yourself, will you be happy doing what you’re going to school for? Is the goal you’re going towards what you actually want to do? Will it help you do what you actually want to do? If you find good reasons for those, the next time you ask yourself “why am I doing any of this?” You’ll have an answer. If not, well, maybe it’s time to change your concentration, or seek out paths other than college.

Just remember that you also do need to think about affording to live (unfortunately) in all of this.

Good to know, thanks, I’ll check out upwork. I just got laid off and they gave me basically no severance, so, I’d love to find something quick lol

Where do you get jobs from?
