  • What opened your eyes to what’s happening in Palestine?

    Gee, that’s assuming quite a bit right out of the gate.

    We’re a group of activists in a Western country

    Care to name yourselves then or do I just take it on faith this isn’t astroturfing? This whole post is pure propaganda.

    While I have sympathy for the average peaceful person living in these areas, Hamas is a terrorist organization. Bring on the downvotes.








  • If you’re not overweight and simply want to become more athletic I personally think the most important thing to do is to find an activity you enjoy. That’s something you have to discover for yourself.

    For example, I can’t stand working out for the sake of working out at a gym. But I do get really motivated by climbing, hiking, trail running, and skiing. Climbing builds strength and has a certain level of problem solving involved too so it’s mentally stimulating. Hiking and trail running are excellent cardio and have clearly defined goals to reach a certain summit or some endpoint. And skiing is just a blast in all forms. All of that keeps me active and having fun while I’m doing it. That makes me want to do it more which allows me to set bigger objectives and then it builds on itself.







  • Your question seems to be confusing between browser and search engine. These are two separate pieces of software.

    But to answer both:

    • Browser: Firefox. Google has demonstrated clearly that they cannot be trusted as the sole owner of the web which is what is about to happen as Chromium (which Brave is based on) fully takes over. Mozilla (makers of Firefox) is the last holdout. If you care, this is case in point about how Google having a monopoly on browsers will kill the free web: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Environment_Integrity.
    • Search engine: Another +1 for Kagi. It has completely replaced Google for me.


  • I’ll be honest with you: I have better things to do with my time than debunk the same old re-hashed covid vaccine bullshit. It’s been almost three years since the vaccines were given to billions of people. If the clinical trials did truly miss awful side effects or there was something else wrong with them we’d know by now. It’s all bullshit and always has been. I’m done wasting my time debunking something that obviously has no credibility.

    There’s no mass conspiracy about any of this stuff. If you want to get to the root of it just follow the money. Who profits from you and other people clicking on and reading these outlandish articles that promise to shed light on some massive conspiracy that the whole world is otherwise missing? The people that run the websites. They collect their ad revenue by peddling bullshit. If you’re not paying for something, you are the product, not the customer.



  • This should be multiple choices because different platforms are used for different topics. For example:

    • Reporting a bug in an open source project: Whatever their bug tracker is where others can find the issue and chime in with more info/a fix.
    • Asking for help in setting something up: A support forum of some type. Depending on size and activity level of project this would take different forms.
    • Reporting a security issue: Something confidential with the developers so they have a chance to fix it before its publicly known.

    Point being, there’s no single platform for all projects or even all use cases within a single project.
