There are some good examples for decentralization. E-Mail is the most obvious and biggest one. And Git itself is also one, because independent projects can be anywhere. But I genuinely understand why people want a centralized place, because it allows to easily search for things, make stats, have an overview on your stuff, etc. I feel like the only true possibility of an alternative is like such a place, a single project that is consistent everywhere and lets people have their entire work, so that it looks centralized, even if it’s not.

I’ll assume that you’re right, but I can always hope. And even if it will change, I can just be really happy that right now it is what it is like.

Ehh. We can honestly be super glad that Trump is suddenly on Ukraine’s side, after everything that happened, especially the white house meeting and such.

The problem is the inter-connection to see everything a single person does and their stats. There should be the possibility for a new (decentralized) system in which you can authenticate all your known repositories, no matter whether they’re on GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, self-hosted Gitea or something entirely different. And there you could have links to all your activity and a graph without being bound to any single service.

This is genuinely such a good analogy

Optimistic nihilism

Please please someone do this, I wanna see him respond to that so much

A very typical use-case would be getting something from a HashMap (or a Vector) and calling unwrap because you know it must exist (as you got a reference to the index or object that must be valid in the HashMap or Vector).
Or if you call a function that returns Option<…> depending on the current state and you know that it must return Some(…) in the current situation.

I only know this from the one movie with the terrible grandma neighbour

I mean using unwrap is not bad practice if the value is guaranteed to not be none, which can happen frequently in some applications.

Okay, I legitimately thought you were talking about not drinking… like at all (water and such) until I read the text. 😅

D: no

I tbh only know several trans women making this kind of joke /shrug

It genuinely looks really great (but scawy :c).
But no macOS :C

Well, it’s difficult to define movie. There will be the last big blockbuster production. But maybe there will still be a smaller production that counts as blockbuster for some people. There will be documentation of stuff probably, does that count as a movie when people film their last days? I don’t think there will this one clear final movie, but yeah, it will (probably) end eventually.

Tor is slow and has a reputation of being used by pedophiles and drug traffickers.

It sucks that literally using something that should be the default, truly protecting privacy, has such a bad reputation because… well it protects privacy.

How can you do that? I’m not far away from blocking, but maybe tagging would help. And it’s beyond insane that criticism of fucking Majorie Taylor Greene and spreading her is getting removed; this feels more like a Trump comm than a progressive one.

Sorry to burst your bubble but being against literally supporting, spreading and legitimizing a fascist is basic anti-fascism 101.
And if you have a problem with that, you should maybe take a look at the mirror.

It’s obvious sarcasm

When I hear something like this, my first reaction is “What the fuck, seriously? While… the Republicans are doing everything they are doing right now?!”. And my second reaction is “hmm what would I answer if I got this question…”.

So yeah, let’s hope it just shows that a bigger part of the electorate finally wants someone that really has a vision of the future and wants to fight for a better place, and not just preserve the status quo without doing anything (and not that the people actually prefer fascism).
