I’m not sure it’s as crystallized as that yet, but I agree with your sentiment. Everyone should have the right to choose to die but if the reason is “there was no other option,” then, we should be damn well sure we offered everything we could. Let’s not be taking societal shortcuts to “oh well, we gave it our best shot.”

I support someone’s right to end their own suffering, 100%, but it is very bad form to: be ABLE to help someone, INGORE that they are suffering, but SMILE while helping them polish their gun.

Vendor lock-in is 100 times worse today than it was 20 years ago. It’s vile, insidious and borderline cruel. Microsoft doesn’t want to work with anyone, they never have and they never will.

Any feelings of openness and cooperation you get from them is engineered, from the ground up, to ensure that they are in a position of control over you.

Their crack security team is not the result of some spontaneous and sudden desire to protect their customers. It’s a consequence of having to constantly triage the financial impacts of a never-ending stream of critical vulnerabilities.

Labelling this proprietary shit “ecosystems” is insulting to ecosystems. They mere notion that you should be using Microsoft software to monitor, secure and protect your Microsoft software is downright ridiculous.

Microsoft is not the only, and maybe not even the worst, in a long list of hand-wringing, life-sucking, progress-hindering companies who people will willingly defend because these companies have forced their way into becoming a part of our identities.

I think if you link your Lemmy and Reddit accounts it filters out all memes automatically. Tell your friend to try that.

Bot, you also need to tell people that /c/blah is meaningless. This is not Reddit bot homie!

You’ve got something pretty interesting for us don’t you? Let’s take a look. Wow, yes. I think we might have something here. You should be pretty excited about this!

So, I’ve been looking at old memes for most of my career and only come across a few like this.

There were many communities made to capture old memes but only a few were truly popular. The rarity of these communities also plays a huge part in how valuable the memes are to collectors.

I’ve seen a few others in better condition, but collector demand for this item is still very high.

Given the condition of community and the records kept about the origins, at auction: I’d expect this to go for about…

… three to four million doge.

When Palo Alto sells your dipshit CIO one firewall appliance per virtual server. “Somehow. Someway,” says the salesperson, “we’re gonna get even more firewalls in here!”

And now the ENTIRE INSTANCE for lululemon, who’s bot posts 1000 times a minute.

If the only criteria to be in a private channel for admins is being an admin, there’s no use making it private. ;) Unless your just looking to filter out bad actors who don’t want to take 5 min and 5$ to make an instance.
