@Lioh @kyle No, the US isn't the enemy nation to the US (I'm from the US).

@kyle I'd pay 20% more for a made-in-USA laptop (or specifically, a not-made-in-enemy-nation laptop), easily.

@mike It would be a cool trend if open-source projects changed their licenses to say that businesses with over a certain amount of profit have to pay a certain slice of that profit.
Like what you're saying, right?

@mike One one hand, governments and corporations shouldn't have to pay for using open-source software since it is explicitly provided Free....
On the other hand, it's not really fair when some poor maintainer finds themselves maintaining a project that a lot of people really depend on (the comes to mind).

Complaining (sorry) 

Arguing online is annoying, it seems like my points never get across

Windows 10 dies Oct 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy new hardware. But if your PC’s from after 2010, it’s not obsolete — just held back. If you install Linux there are no license fees, no forced upgrades, no ads and spyware. You can find help at the endof10.org/

@jbiserkov @tshirtman @xale @sop For some reason, Mastodon seems to label all video as "GIF", which is frustrating to me

@strypey Frankly, it's not a hill either of us need to die on because even in the screenshots you gave, you can see that all your clients actually *do* display a server. Take a look :) we're both talking about @ mentions but when it comes to viewing a post, *all five* of the screenshotted clients show the poster's server, which is what matters for following a news source.
At any rate, @ index isn't the best name, so they could change it for *that* reason, as you were saying.

@citrus_marine Hey I mean it can go from 6mil to 14mil in one day too in theory, right? But don't burn yourself out ;)

@andros Neat. What I do is put a leading space before the command, like ` echo 'secret sauce' >> .secretsaucedb`. Works on most shells and shell configurations, though I haven't always found it enabled so I might do ` echo test` first and then hit the up arrow to see if it was remembered.

Current thoughts on #DonkeyKongBananza… it’s grown on me a lot. The controls and mechanics are excellent, the worlds are all fun and well designed, and the atmosphere is top notch throughout.

If you liked Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong 64, Banjo-Kazooie or Super Mario Odyssey, you’ll love this game.
