A Linguistβs Case Against Socialism
History has made the term vague and unproductive. Should it be retired?

They make a very good case for replacing the word Socialism with Progressivism, since what most people selling socialism (Sanders, AOC, etc) are selling doesn't match either the historical, European, or the concept most Americans think of when they hear the term.

@chosafine Off, good question. Drivers have a huge performance impact, so you'll need to find mac-specific reviews

@garfiald Statistically the least likely position to injure either partner though

So I needed a project to do this summer, outside of my GSoC stuff, to keep myself from dwelling on the rapidly approaching demise of the planet and I've finally arrived at one: A trans friendly health tracking app.
I need suggestions. Thread to follow which my current thoughts, but only on Mastodon. ( https://cybre.space/@tindall for you syndicated folks )

@chuck @gamehawk .... it's banned as it destroys the ozone layer, that isn't madness.
Honestly the Montreal Protocol is how we SHOULD be dealing with climate change

@kara_dreamer by support I mean "there are unlatched security holes"

@kara_dreamer but 7 isn't supported anymore and has done major issues
Canageek
@kara_dreamer oh just install classic shell and it's identical to 7, it's not nearly as crazy as 8 even without that though

@kara_dreamer ....

@KitRedgrave Yeah, but everyone is turning out inferior versions of like, three phones and two laptops. Even Lenovo doesn't make a true ThinkPad anymore!
Mr. Matt :debian: :linux:

@rockario That is part of what I meant by Fear of Missing Out.

It is really annoying how tech companies seem to all focus on what is the current trendiness rather then trying to differentiate themselves.
Apple removes headphone jack, suddenly EVERYONE does. The race to the thinnest phone, everyone colouring them black, etc etc.
I swear, is the entire tech industry run by fear of missing out? Is there a reason people don't go "Sure, 75% of people like X type of phone, lets go after the other 25% where there is less competition?"

I need suggestions for super gay plants for my yard! If it's a plant that looks/sounds/acts incredibly queer, I want to know about it.
Bonus points for PNW natives & species not on the WA noxious plants list (or I'd surround myself with Buddleia davidii 'Bicolor')
