âAccording to the publishers, âThe updated version [of Puerto Rico 1897] is slated to be released in early Fall on Amazon and at local game stores.â But what I havenât heard is whether this corrected printing will be marketed as a second or updated edition, or whether there will be any way for us as buyers to distinguish between the versions when we are shopping for them.â

Itâs Berger Time, folks! Specifically, itâs time to talk about Berger et al v. United States, a 1921 supreme court decision that the MAGA goofs might dredge out in defense of 45 in the context of the 14th amendment banning people who have supported an insurrection from running for office.
Berger (a socialist) had been convicted (which 45 hasnât been yetâhe is guilty, as we all saw in the live broadcast, but the judgeâs gavel hasnât fallen yet) but the Supreme Court overturned that and he ended up holding three terms. (Not as chief of executive but public office none-the-less.)
But! Hereâs the part you need to know: the 14th itself wasnât overturned, only Bergerâs conviction was, because of what was ruled a biased judge. Now, thatâs still gonna be a problem for 45 since every reasonable human will by the nature of just being a reasonable human be âbiasedâ against 45 and his reality distortion field. But still. 14th Amendment is still on the books is the conclusion. Hurry up and convict 45.

I was always anti-twitter so seeing it devolve into X is just it clarifying where it was always heading. But whatâs weird to me is that people then willingly are going to BSky, to get fooled again (since AT isnât real yet, nor will it be a particularly good protocol if it does become real).
On the one hand, I wanna say what a failure on behalf of the Mastodon community that people are so desperate that they even willingly go to sites like BSky and Cohost.
On the other hand, itâs maybe more a failure on how fedi was originally organized, with âThe Whole Known Networkâ and such. The âbubbleâ idea is so much better & cozier. It lets you think locally, act globally đđ»ââïž

âFor a long time, we were unhappy about having to spend so much time on each of our various Raspberry Pis, taking care of security updates and other general Linux distribution maintenance.
Then, we had a crazy idea: what if we massively reduced the overall system complexity by getting rid of all software we donât strictly need, and instead built up a minimal system from scratch entirely in Go, a memory safe programming language?â
And this is why Linux is an OS and GNU is not an OS đđ»ââïž

Itâs so weird to me that Lost in Translation was the hit and Marie Antoinette the flop because the latter is by far the better of the two.
I usually see shandy made with lemonade but what I really want is one made with gooseberry soda. Maybe Iâll just try to mix one myself đ€·đ»ââïž
Konx pale + Gooseberry soda = �!
Although maybe shandy is made with non-carbonated lemonade? Thatâd make more sense but then I need to figure out the gooseberry equivalent to that.
Hey yâall, following hashtags doesnât work very well on Fedi. Youâll only see posts that your instance has stumbled over one way or the other, and promoting hashtags will lead to people getting pushed to fewer and fewer and larger and larger instances.
Hashtags are still a good tool to organize your own posts, like âI wanna see all of Aliceâs posts aboug knittingâ, but itâs not a very reliable or inclusive tool for community or conversation.
(Donât worry, thereâs a group protocol (called FEP-1b12) thatâs gonna work much better with the federated modelâthere are servers up already but they are a liâl bit buggy still.)
Iâve been in some conversations with people about this hashtag issue but I just realized I should make a stand-alone post, too.

On Mastodon you can verify that a specific external site is associated with you (by including a special rel=me link on that external site).
But be aware that that only proves you to the instance. Instances in turn then could be lying, and someone could set up an instance that had âfake verificationsâ. Like, I could create president.social and say itâs the president of the United States and put in a fake verification thereâbut! Donât worry, there is a way to check these verifications yourself: just look for the rel=me link in the HTML source of the linked site đđ»ââïž

Iâm not the biggest fan of bad arguments.
Like, say vim for example. Vim is bad but saying âvim causes head liceâ would still be messed up. That doesnât make vim good, just⊠it can be bad for other reasons.
In politics I so often see either âoh so vim doesnât cause head lice? It must be great then! Mandatory vim for all!â or people buying into and passing along the bad argument.
Stick to good arguments. Thanks.
There are many very, very, very good arguments against nuclear power but âa major concern is that more nuclear means less renewables, at a time when wind and solar need all the scale they can getâ is not one of them. đ€Šđ»ââïž
Nuclear can take the load off renewables and mitigate their unstable output. (Again, this isnât necessarily a pro-nuclear post, itâs an antiâbad-arguments post.)
The postâs reasoning is based on misguidedly mixing up absolute amounts and relative amounts.
I wouldnât say that stealing more is a good way to decrease the number of murders even though itâd decrease the proportion of crimes that are murders. Conversely, stealing less doesnât mean more murders.
We want to decrease the absolute numbers of fossil fuel consumption. Stay sober, darlings, and donât get it twisted.
For those considering starting a Lemmy instance but havenât yet, hold off a bit until this issue is resolved.
