He’s been blatantly and unapologetically manipulating the market and funneling funds directly into his and his buddies’ pockets. Why is this worded as if any of this is a mystery?

Games@lemmy.world•Day 621 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playingEnglish
5·1 day agoI enjoyed it most playing the first time, blind. Now that I know about achievements and the different milestones, it’s harder not to try to do everything in year one.
I end up choosing to focus on one thing at a time, and it becomes more chill again. Usually year one is focused on setting up a good farm and making it easy to care for. Then I might focus on the mines, or fishing.

101·2 days agoIt’s cute when people think Google cares about scams. They’ll let any number of scams through as long as they get their cut.

Linux@programming.dev•"FOSS" and "GNU Linux" do *not* automatically mean "for the community" or "for human rights"
11·2 days agoIn one sense, nothing is “free of politics”. Should your tennis club allow black people to join? There was a day and age when allowing them to join would have been considered a bold political statement. The rules and decisions your tennis club make are inherently political, whether you think of them that way or not.
That being said, more specific to software licenses, the question is whether we should be using verbage that restricts FOSS from being used for unethical purposes (such as military weaponry). There are cases to be made for and against that, and so far, it would seem most FOSS licenses tend toward a less restrictive policy.
So the “political” question in software licenses is: does it make sense to add restrictions in an attempt to promote societal well-being, or do we stick with the “free”-er approach? Both have political and societal ramifications.

2·4 days agoVernor’s is its own class, and I prefer it to drink on its own. But Canada Dry is better for mixed drinks. Excellent with scotch, and a way better mixer for rum than coke (fight me on it).

I’m guessing this machine is in a high ginger ale demand area.
