I don’t know nearly enough history to be an expert on this subject, but I’ve heard that one of the causes of the Enlightenment was because peasants and poors were able to afford to spend time learning and creating, rather than substinance-farming.
It works great. I never open a browser to search for mail: http://mutt.postle.net/searching/

I learned about mutt ~12 years ago, and it changed my email-interface forever
all mutt, all the time
I’ve heard of the Brain Health Registry: https://my.brainhealthregistry.org/
But I have no idea how well it works
Yup, same for me
I’ve been using the ‘Silence’ app, which lets only known-callers ring your phone. The rest get sent straight to voicemail
I’m not who you replied to but… I’ve run a bunch of models through https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile and https://ollama.com/. I’m lucky enough to have a decent video-card (24GB), but if you are willing to be a bit more paitient, or run a lower model, you’ll probably be able to get it going.
I grew up in California and had the opposite experience. I had friends who grew up speaking Mexican-Spanish at home, and would take the Spanish classes to get an easy A.
The teachers never understood what the Mexican-Spanish students were saying, and kept telling the native speakers that they were doing it wrong.
Honestly, I just block the people who keep repeating that kinds of BS. They aren’t worth my mental energy.
Does that mean I miss out on a bunch of discussions on .world? yes, but not wasting my mental energy on bad-faith arguments is worth it.
Fair enough. I’m sorry to hear all that. I’m lucky enough to have a good tech job, but I’d love to have a good tech job in Sweden instead of here in the US.
I’d love to move to Sweden. Any advice on how to move out there?
Does it? TIL I always thought it meant “official” or some such, but had no bearing on whether they were elected or not
Install Ganeti, or K3s, and do a lot of things!
I don’t think that’s even remotely true. While it is true that the USA has it’s fair share of racists and sexists, Hillary won the popular vote, and Obama is one of America’s most popular presidents.
Harris lost because she ran a terrible campaign, on the coatails of another terrible campgaign, from a terrible president.
Yeah, you were clear. I thought I was being clear when I said that I don’t want to fund the “open web” as Mozilla defines it. I only want to fund Firefox development.
“…you’re funding the foundation itself…”
But that’s what I don’t want. I don’t care about the foundation, as it doesn’t share my values.
“I’m sure if more people donated, they could actually be incentivized to make such an option available, but they barely get any donations compared to the revenue they make from the Google subsidy, so it’s just unreasonable to expect them to put in that additional effort, especially when the primary thing the vast majority of the money goes to is Firefox staff, development, and related server hosting anyways.”
This is the problem though. How many people don’t donate because, like me, they don’t want to pay for a bloated CEO salary, or unrelated projects? I don’t find it unreasonable at all, rather it would help them focus on what their base actually cares about. They have a lot of fat to cut, and this would point out where their resources should be spent, compared to how their resources are currently spent.
Are they going to make as much money from donations as Google gives them? no, but that’s a good thing. It’ll help them focus.
I feel like my point was pretty clear, but to spell it out: Mozilla is mis-managing their resources. I want to make sure the resources that I give to them only go towards what I consider to be worthwhile projects.
He blew up innocent people with bombs and drones. He tortured people. I’d say he was indeed terrible.
Don’t get me wrong: he was one of the better presidents that we’ve had, but that bar is embarrasingly low.
