    The top image gave me flashbacks to reddit, r/chodi, and the wave of Indians spamming r/Pakistan complaining about “love jihad”

    spoiler

    Love jihad (or Romeo jihad)[5] is an Islamophobic[11] conspiracy theory[22] promoted by right-wing Hindutva activists.[25] The conspiracy theory purports that Muslim men target Hindu women for conversion to Islam by means such as seduction,[28] feigning love,[30] deception,[31] kidnapping,[34] and marriage,[37] as part of a broader demographic “war” by Muslims against India,[39] and an organised international conspiracy,[42] for domination through demographic growth and replacement.

    It was funny because there actually were several studies and polls that suggested women in India preferred Muslim men because they were well groomed and more respectable than their Hindu counterparts.












  • XFCE + Compiz

    The unholy combination of accelerated 3D graphics and performance, all without the stupid drawbacks of wayland.

    Runs much lighter than KDE even with all the 3D cube and windows stuff enabled.

    Extremely customizable as well. XFCE already does a great job of UI/UX, it just lacks a compositor to add flare (xfwm4 has no animations, only some blur effects).






  • This is why lots of software has started adopting SSPL license which doesn’t actually fix the problem and isn’t a FOSS license.

    I still think a new license scheme should be considered though. Giants like AWS and Google have been profiteering off of FOSS for way too long now.

    AGPL has been deemed generally successful in this regard because it has been upheld in court cases and forced companies to comply, which it seems to work pretty great for SaaS.

    The problem is these giants will usually just choose a more permissive alternative anyway. Both MongoDB and Redis have forks that they can use, and GPL itself is permissive enough for private forking being legal.


  • I don’t mind when people eat fast food, but I do get annoyed when people brag about eating fast food.

    Especially now that prices have inflated so it’s no longer corporate factory machine cheap.

    There are so many random food places even in the most rundown parts of a city that have both much better quality and bang for buck.

    I’d even argue you’re not getting an authentic philly cheese if you get it from a place that’s not in the ghetto or has been advertised online in any capacity. And the funny thing is the real one is usually cheaper too.


  • They already lived through 4 years of Trump and have decided it is worth doing it again instead of letting the party most currently responsible for said genocide to win.

    Point being that Harris has outright refused to meet any sort of demands on Israel. There was no reduction in arms nor any restrictions placed on Israel, and Harris fully intends to continue that policy.

    If she loses, it means that she failed to meet her constituents demands, which means they’d have to actually meet them in the next election to win.

    Also because I have a hard time seeing how anyone who lost entire family trees would listen to “uM AkShuLly TrUmP woUld bE 9999x WorSe, wE jUst NeEd tO ProTest aFTER tHe ELeCTion” as if we didn’t just full send billions of dollars in munitions and weapons to Israel.
