Some countries are easier to get into than others. Start researching which ones have a path that could work for you.

Most are pretty strict but some are more open. If I recall correctly the Nordic countries may be a little easier, but don’t quote me on that. It’s been a long time since I accepted that this country had successfully trapped me here.

Mario is really excited about this development.

Only comic who was in all six seasons, no less.

There’s no stopping this disaster at this point. It was nice being the dominant species.

We now have definitive proof that human intelligence isn’t the net evolutionary positive we thought it was.

Dom Irerra was more open about his sexuality than a lot of the comics of his time, and it always made me respect him.

Rewatching Dr. Katz and thinking about the time period it was in, sometimes Dom feels absolutely subversive to the times.

His obsessive love for Dr. Katz is something a lot of men comics would have been afraid to commit to, even to this day.

People worship corps.

Exactly. I have services running with staggered automated updates/reboots to keep things stable. Since at least one of them is always available, it’s like having no down-time but with actual stability and redundancy.

Musk is loud and dumb so he gets most of the attention for this sort of shit but Zuckerberg seems calculatingly evil.

One way to avoid it is to prioritize GOG copies if they’re available. Since GOG has no DRM they tend to generally be untouched.

Jokes on you I’m using it to be disappointed in myself.

I have all my devices set to reboot once weekly a few hours after daily scheduled updates. I probably don’t need to do this, but I do. It’s a habit I got in with scheduling router reboots, and then started extending it to other devices. It’s nice to have some solid uptime, but I have three unbound DNS servers in sequence so they update and reboot on a staggered schedule so it’s like they never go down.

You never know when the odd cosmic ray is gonna hit and flip yer bits.

I literally had a friend breaking down over it and I suggested Fediverse alternatives and they looked at me like I had sprouted an extra head.

I even explained that US companies aren’t doing anything materially different than Tiktok (propaganda and spying on people), and they’re all bad. Still looking at me like I’m some kind of maniac.

Everyone bitches about corporations but so few want to actually stop sucking on their fucking teat.

More than just unions, people need to walk out. They can’t fire all of you in one day.

Four years is a great amount of time to plan for it and get people on board. You gotta start talking to people about it, first!

True, but Tim Brenners-Lee is also on the board, and he historically has generally good takes on tech and politics.

People are often unwilling to go against the positions of the guy who created the World Wide Web.

This is just a reminder, the parallels between Trump and Hitler are many.

Trump hates drinking and smoking while Hitler also hated drinking and smoking.

If they represent what “sober” is, I’ll take any and all drugs mainlined into my veins till the end of time please and thank you.

Yep, it’s Germany all over again, everyone’s just gonna roll over and let it happen, thinking “it won’t get that bad, I’ve got to get to work anyway.”

It is, but uhhhh, unfortunately the US is looking pretty toast, looks like it’s about to start fucking with Europe for Russia, and China is already clearly making plans to follow Russia’s lead and re-take what they consider to be their territories, simply because they know Trump will let it happen.

With Europe literally having to cope with managing the US becoming an antagonist along with Russia, I’m not really sure we have a choice in the matter my friend.

lmao broligarchs is a new one to me and its fucking gold
