LGBTQ+@beehaw.org•Virginia students walk-out protesting trans Outing policy
13·2 years agoIt kind of means women shouldn’t be taken seriously, because they’re just “silly little airheads” who just cook and clean.

Politics@beehaw.org•Opinion | Want to know what post-Roe America looks like? Just look at Alabama.
3·2 years agoI disagree, although I can definitely see where you are coming from. Places like Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi are still dealing with outright racism in some areas. There was even astory I read about a town that had a white okigarchy which wouldn’t give its black resudents mayorship. The South, while seeming like it won’t change, will eventually have to. There are a lot of demographic shifts happening here that will force it to change some. Not to mention a growing labor movement, awareness of clinate change, and growing activism to address social issues that will increasingly put pressure on local and stare governments. So, yes, it will take time to correct the inertia of the status quo, but it’s possible.

87·2 years agoI hope this really hapoens. I’ve heard that video game development is a toxic jndustry to be in, from underpaid developers to strict dealines to meet. I really hope they will unionize!

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•What was your gateway product to open source?
6·2 years agoFor me, Blender was probably my very first introduction into FOSS. I was using it because it was free, but I also liked the concept behind having a useful software the people used everyday to make cool projects like movies and animated shows. I did a project on it in. What really got me down the rabbithole was Debian. I had come across it in computer class, and I really liked the interface. i did more research and came to love Debian for being a stable distro run by the community. From thereit’s history.

SneerClub@awful.systems•‘Before its too late buddy’: A Code Red Warning about TESCREALismEnglish
4·2 years agoThese people are too disconnected from reality, too prideful of their “intelligence” and “success” from their tech startups, and have read too much Isaac Asimov. smh.
These ones might be smaller, but:
- Meet The Robinsons
- Tomorrowland
- Me. Peabody and Sherman
- Everything, Everywhere, All At Once
I think these movies were really good because they actually moved you, in their own little way.

Politics@beehaw.org•Sanders hits at Cornel West over criticism of BidenEnglish
2·2 years agoI agree with this post you made. If the best we can do is vote into office a fairly old, out-of-tuoch president who has done a moderately decent job of running the United States, then it’s a lose-lose situation for everyone. Politics especially in the United States has become too boring and safe. We need to take a risk on Cornell West and spice the game up a bit. Else we’ll repeat the same mistakes we’ve been making for the past 50 years.
Edit; pls forgive my passion posting, whoops. Point is we need a shake up cuz stuff is going down the drain a little

Politics@lemmy.ml•The GOP has a master plan to criminalize LGBTQ people
4·2 years agoYeah, i totally agree. Electoralisn is one path, however, if more people resist, it’s a way better effort. The problem is just even getting people engaged right now. The main focus should be getting these structures and networks up and running, especially in underserved places like rural towns and impoverished areas.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Any good tools for converting a YT playlist to mp3?English
32·2 years agoThere might be, but as a standard mp3 is by far the most cross compatible format on any device. Plus, if you feel like it later you can just create a program to convert all the mp3 files into other formats.
























Shameful, it’s so frustrating having to deal with these grifters.
