The one I've always liked is "the difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars is... about a billion dollars"

So, I happen to have friends that live in Lakewood, and from the sound of it, you just might live in a different Lakewood than them. Lakewood is economically similar to the majority of other suburbs of the major Ohio cities, and seeing as I also live in one of those suburbs, I can assure you that you're lucky to be paying what you're paying in rent, even for a studio apartment.
You pay $500 less than the average American for rent. I think you may be lacking the perspective necessary to engage productively with this topic.
And cut into their Lemmy time? Inconceivable!
Maybe frozen broccoli
If the government cant handle "online stuff" they can pitch privatization.
It kind of already is privatized. Most of the government's cyber security efforts are handled by defense contractors.
To make settings inaccessible on purpose or even alienate people deemed "too stupid" for them is called Tech Paternalism, and it fucking sucks.
You're referring to Windows Registry right?
C'mon man, this is just a textbook fallacious slippery slope argument. Rust isn't some brand new language whose stable release was less than a year ago, it's over a decade old now. Scheme and Lisp are interpreted languages for God's sake, it's borderline* impossible to use them for kernel programming.
Also I'm pretty sure the whole point of the Rust project that all this drama is centered around is to keep Rust code separate from the kernel. From what I understand the whole point is to maintain Rust bindings to the kernel API as a separate project, so that if developers want to write a driver in Rust, they can without having to rewrite those bindings themselves. But the kernel code itself will still be all C code. Now I'm not a kernel developer, and the last time I wrote a driver was for my operating systems class in university over a decade ago, so take that with a grain of salt.
* I say borderline because anything is possible with code if you're creative enough, but anyone trying to submit Scheme or Lisp code to the Linux kernel is gonna get laughed off the Internet
He's issued executive orders for all of those things I listed you disingenuous walnut
No policy change? He's attempting to get the US out of the UN, he's trying to sanction the ICC, he's trying to roll back the hold that Biden put on delivery of 2000lb bombs, and that's just what I could find on a quick 5 minute search. No policy change? Get the fuck outta here man
I downvoted because you didn't add anything to the conversation. Do you know what Dellinger can do now that he's been reinstated? If so, tell us. If not, find out and tell us. If you don't want to find out, that's ok too, but in that case you don't have to say anything. The route you chose did nothing to further the conversation, it just ended in you browbeating a fellow citizen for making a desparate plea in a desperate time.
