Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Thursday, 10-Oct-2019 15:28:49 UTC Ruby Rhod @jeff It's not the other party, it's *Newt* and Newt alone. He's an evil fuck who weasled his way into destroying our ability to have any bipartisanship. -
Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Thursday, 10-Oct-2019 15:26:52 UTC Ruby Rhod @jeff the reason why American politicians/presidents have been unable to deliver on the ideals they were elected on for the past 20 years is because of Newt Gingrich. If you knew anything about modern American politics you'd know what he did. -
Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Thursday, 10-Oct-2019 15:22:25 UTC Ruby Rhod @jeff let me clarify: I did not say JOBS in my post. Intentionally.
We do not need to bring back manufacturing jobs to the USA. Our cost of living is too high. It's not possible in most industries for this to work. Nobody would be able to afford the end product.
We need things like UBI because of automation. We need more social safety nets, and to strengthen the ones we have.
We need to make sure people have access to education and healthcare. No out of pocket costs.
We need the next generation to not be doing busywork, but to be actually creating and inventing things that empower this country.
Sending people back into the mines or firing back up Detroit is NOT how we fix this country or this economy.
All of those displaced people? They know how to turn a wrench. We need them to get into the trades *immediately* so we can fix our infrastructure and build out everything we need to modernize this country.
This is what would make America great. Not going back to the industrial revolution. -

Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Thursday, 10-Oct-2019 15:13:21 UTC Ruby Rhod I'm going to take a wild guess here, but I suspect Apple needs China more than China needs Apple
So if Apple doesn't bend the fuck over, they're going to lose their manufacturing resources and that will lead to their stock dropping like a rock and investors shidding and fardding all over the boardrooms
Maybe we should fix this country so it's possible to make things in America again :thunk: -

Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Thursday, 10-Oct-2019 13:37:00 UTC Ruby Rhod What does SFW stand for?
This is an important test -
Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Oct-2019 23:12:17 UTC Ruby Rhod macOS Catalina comes with a sudo that doesn't remember what sudo is for
> sudo -e /etc/paths.d/feld
sudo: /etc/paths.d/feld: Read-only file system
it's not read-only filesystem, just a read-only file WHICH IS WHY I FUCKING USED SUDO -
Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Oct-2019 23:11:29 UTC Ruby Rhod @djsundog @rabcyr yep, true true.
I've found that just escaping from notifications hell is a good step. If I need to I ditch my Apple Watch for a simple Casio. This makes me much less likely to investigate notifications. -

DJ Sundog - from the spook-lab (djsundog@toot-lab.reclaim.technology@toot-lab.reclaim.technology)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Oct-2019 22:51:56 UTC DJ Sundog - from the spook-lab pro tip from an old cat who's been dealing with people complaining about preferring electronic communications to face-to-face communications for decades:
the next time someone gives you grief for your screen time, show them how you're having three separate conversations with the same group of people without anyone losing track of any of the three subjects and then ask them to replicate that standing in a group of four people at the same rate of conversation as the online group.
the only times I've ever seen a group pull it off face-to-face was when the group originally formed their bonds electronically and honed their group communication style over an extended period.
your mileage my vary.

Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Oct-2019 22:53:20 UTC Ruby Rhod @FuchsiaShock I've missed all the news surrounding this
Did PBS end Sesame Street and then HBO picked it up?
And does this explain why Sesame Street characters are getting licensed for use in all kids of weird ads that have nothing to do with Sesame Street? (farmer's insurance, I think was one?) -
spoopy tranarchist witch (fuchsiashock@radical.town@radical.town)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Oct-2019 22:24:17 UTC spoopy tranarchist witch Sesame Street, a show created for public access television to help kids from low-income families learn to read and write, is being put being a paywall which will prevent the kids who most need it from accessing it.
The past 50 seasons are also included in that so they can't be streamed anywhere else.Fuck capitalism.
Pirate Sesame Street.

Ruby Rhod (feld@bikeshed.party)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Oct-2019 22:23:38 UTC Ruby Rhod @flussence wat are they actually gonna do this? ripping off FreeBSD who ripped off Windows who ripped off Solaris? -
