My dad once called the police to help his friend who was having a bit of scary episode. He was threatening to hurt himself. My dad, in a panic and feeling helpless, was hoping the police could help bring him down from the edge. All they did was make the situation worse, barking orders and making demands, escalating emotions. The night ended with the friend being tazed and arrested.

My dad no longer calls the police for things. Honestly, we're extremely lucky he wasn't shot.

Literally the only thing required to take down the American Empire: some orange turd saying "nuh uh"

I ride electric boards. My pants are full of holes, not because I'm cheap or lazy, but because my pants don't last long 😅

...What are the inconvenient truths?

Edit: Ah, I just looked at your removed comments defending Nazis and shit. Don't care, nevermind. Don't bother responding, I've already blocked you.

A little regulatory capture never hurt anyone...right?

HTTPS certs used to be very expensive and technically complicated, making it out of reach for most smaller orgs. Let's Encrypt brought easy mass adoption and changed encryption availability on the web for everyone.

Yeah, I uh...I think that's kinda what this whole conversation here is about

Maybe they were humans who've realized how dumb they were and ceased posting? One can hope, anyway...

I don't think gruel and mass-produced orange jumpsuits are going to set them back too far

That's the fun thing about international law- who's gonna enforce it?

Ok, thank you. I was seeing 3/4 (75%) and 40% and was very confused lol.
