Hey I’ve got them beat I’ve never tried Linux!

(I need to though, I really do.)

There’s nothing stopping them from hosting a massive instance. But people aren’t forced to move there to interact with them.

Yeah, I wonder if he’s just taking his time or he’s trying to keep some stuff as closed? I’ll admit it’s been about a year since I even looked at code but I feel it, calling me to abandon all life except the glowing screen again.

Not even as a jumping off point? I’d have to get into it on my computer but it certainly looks like at least a partial build has been posted from poking around with my phone. Loops isn’t terribly complex.

You’re welcome to grab the code and make something better.

They aren’t showing as banned here. Maybe your instance banned them?

Airbnb party house.

The neighbors have probably tried to burn it down.

Yeah he does good stuff

Sixteen Tons. Another day older and deeper in debt.

Look at the thread we’re in. Now come back and tell with a straight face that John Brown had anything to do with it.

But you know what we don’t have anymore? All white juries nullifying prosecutions. Because the federal government will prosecute them for doing that.

The fight can be meaningful, I never said it couldn’t. I said he didn’t stop the jury nullification problem in the south.

It’s really not.

It’s not a thin line. Anyone trying to make it one knows exactly what they’re doing.

John Brown was a hundred years before any of it stopped. He hardly helped stop it. Fight it, sure. Stop it? No. And Malcolm X may have helped Congress see the need but the majority of it stopped when the federal government was able to prosecute people for civil rights violations and force states to let black people onto juries.

Best you’re going to get is a strong blue state. If you host it outside the US then you are subject to that country’s laws.

Read what they actually said. You’re just making yourself look like a fool. If you wrote, “The guy who killed the UHC CEO should get off” you’d be fine. You’re not allowed to say things like, “We should go kill more CEOs, the juries won’t convict!” If you can’t see why one is okay and the other is bad then you’re on the very fringe out there and you should re-evaluate your ideas.

It’s also used to tell people they should go do something because “no jury in the world would convict you”. Like when white juries in the American south actually refused to convict white people who murdered black people, no matter how much evidence there was.

When Jury Nullification is mentioned on it’s own it’s fine. When it’s mentioned in combination with calling for violence, it’s bad. And it should be bad, we’ve seen it used so badly we created the Federal Civil Rights statutes that allow the Feds to effectively step in and prosecute those racially motivated murders in a different state.

There was a question as to whether instances were allowed for promotion. They are.

Not really though. The trend line would be flat or nearly flat on that graph up to 2024. And the rest is just a visual depiction of the IEA’s prediction. Which is still pretty conservative.
