wow, what a way to demonize a group of people you don't understand. How does one achieve the naivety to believe only a single political faction operates like this? I have bad news for you comrades. We were all incels once. Don't give up on others--the 'alt-right' suffers the same as we do. I also have to point out the blatant hypocrisy of disavowing 'toxic internet culture' in the most toxic and myopic way possible 😆

Would you like to contribute Monero but don't know programming or where to start? Here's compiled list for it!

This is awesome and quite comprehensive, but I have an additional question:

What if I would like to contribute and I do know programming but still don't know where to start? I'm familiar and have done small projects with everything except Dart. How does one prioritize what is needed most right now? Should I just attack whatever I enjoy most or is some work desperately needed more than others?

Because literally only one does. There is no bothsides here.

Why are you so confident that you are correct here? Have you literally examined every facet of the internet?

I'm not questioning the goodness of anything. I'm just curious to see where your confidence stems from to demonize a whole collective of people beyond redemption. You'd think we'd get past this kind of ideology after WWII, y'know?

Old XKCD, still relevant

I definitely still killed us all, but at the same time how are you supposed to know any of the filenames if none are given from the comic? I guess my real answer is to 'tar -xvf' then hit tab with hopes of decent file completion functionality lol

"one of those programs so old its...syntax got standardized before command line syntax standards were established." --This is wild to learn, but also confusing. How does tar not take leading hyphens, but I've only ever used it as such without error of any kind? Not even bragging I've been doing that for 10+ years too lol

Justice Alito Caught on Tape Discussing How Battle for America 'Can't Be Compromised'

How does such a plain question appear insincere? Especially when no one even addresses my second question? lmao

Just because deepfake technology exists doesn’t mean that that all video and audio recordings are immediately untrustworthy.

Are you sure? I only ask because you didn't really provide any kind of logic to justify this claim. If we can artificially generate anything we can imagine, how are we to distinguish what recordings are authentic vs artificially generated? I don't see a clear or easy solution to the dilemma, but am hoping others can shine light on the issue.

SimpleX Server Payments: Will XMR be a default?

Demonizing others so shallowly often does very little other than create a false sense of security and unity

You are reasoning with one in this very comment thread comrade! There are allies everywhere when we begin to see through the illusory divisions of old. I promise you we bleed the same blood and long for the same peace
