I actually like this idea. The prevention of supermods like AwkwardtheTurtle is absolutely something that should be considered.

Wisconsin’s Democratic governor guts Republican tax cut, increases school funding for 400 years
This is great to see.
My biggest complaint about Democrats has always been their lack of balls, and weird cultish insistence that they always take the "high road" and try to work with Republicans in good faith.

Sounds to me like it's about time we build an observatory on the moon.

Good friend
I know enough about Linux to be able to install most distros and use them, but I don't know enough about them to criticizes others for their choice.

If I used Twitter this would be depressing, but I don't so it's hilarious.

Wait, some people buy swishers to smoke them and not use them as blunt wraps?
Huh, TIL.

I started pirating movies again after a decade
Even when I subbed to netflix, I still downloaded what I enjoyed.
I like having an offline copy of my media.

I learned about catbox.moe recently. It's pretty great. Simple interface, uploads up to 200mb, files are kept forever, and when you upload a picture, it gives you the actual direct link to the image; not like every other image hoster that gives you a link to the "image page", then you have to right click on the image and copy the link address to actually get the direct link.
Only thing that sucks is it doesn't strip exif data from the pictures uploaded, but not a huge deal since I just use it for memes and random pics anyway.

If Lemmy and Mastodon continues to get popular, we will eventually get Instance wars.

For the last one: Spock stated that the previous mission they hadn't stayed as long as they were when the effects started happening.

Joe Rogan wants a "debate" on vaccine science. Don’t give it to him. How to have better conversations about contentious scientific subjects.
The only thing that debating nutjobs like Rogan accomplishes is legitimizing their lunacy.

Interested in De-googling, but I would really like a phone with a decent camera, but I can't bring myself to pay $600 for a phone. Advice?
I got a Galaxy S20 Ultra refurbished off ebay for $300. It was a flagship phone and was $1,400 when released. It has an SD card slot that allows up to 1TB I think, a 5000mAH battery, and a 108 MP main camera. And it has 12 gb of ram.
Whatever you decide, definitely consider refurbished options.

A pandemic, vaccines, bitcoin, cancel culture and streaming TV, Futurama is back after a 10 year hiatus.
I'm not excited for more episodes like the Susan Boyle one, but I'll still watch every new episode happily.
