MJBrune , to Fediverse in Beehaw on Lemmy: The long-term conundrum of staying here

Ah, yes that too. I was thinking of the defederating with lemmy.world and sh.it.works when I was reading that. But Also, yes, they are likely moving because mod tools on the fediverse are a nightmare. Honestly, I see why the US Congress and major lobbyists want to hold service owners accountable for what their users post. Creating a platform for users to post whatever then not moderating it properly should be and I think is illegal in the USA. The fediverse at heart seems to be designed without any moderation in mind.

MJBrune , to Fediverse in Beehaw on Lemmy: The long-term conundrum of staying here

It’s less an echo chamber and more simply an attempt at creating an Internet community that doesn’t constantly argue or insult people. Where you treat people like they are smart humans and where others return the same assumption. All different opinions are welcomed. I know I hold a few strong differing opinions than the norm on beehaw and have always been treated with decency. Taking those same opinions in to lemmy general I’ve been called names and attempted to be invalidated instead of people trying to see a different opinion. So if anything it seems like lemmy general is becoming an echo chamber and beehaw is trying to be a respectful discourse community.

MJBrune , to U.S. News in Americans Are Losing Faith in the Value of College. Whose Fault Is That?

To be fair, the cost of the house and the cost of a degree could be equal but at like 3,000 dollars.

MJBrune , to Politics in Ex-Proud Boys leader sentenced to 22 years for role in US Capitol attack

Seems like, what I’ve found is that a terrorism adjustment can at most add 8 years to the sentence. So because he wasn’t even in the city at the time, he probably got something like a 16-year sentence for seditious conspiracy with the terrorism adjustment being 6 years, bringing the total to 22 years. It doesn’t seem like a slap on the wrist to me but he also wasn’t tried for terrorism directly. That’s a much harder-to-prove charge and the DA probably just wants to get him on what they already have strong evidence for.

That said I also believe we shouldn’t see prison as punishment but instead reform. 22 years should be enough time to reform him.

MJBrune , to Politics in Ex-Proud Boys leader sentenced to 22 years for role in US Capitol attack

www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2384 for what he was convicted of, seditious conspiracy, is 20 years max. How they got 22 is odd, maybe there were additional charges not mentioned in the article.

MJBrune , to KDE in A small explainer graphic about Kalendar → Merkuro

I don’t have a proton mail icon on my desktop though. I don’t think that really matters. A consistency with the UI would be nice though. You could make an icon theme.

MJBrune OP , to KDE in KDE Start Search is slow

Oh what launcher are you using?

MJBrune OP , to KDE in KDE Start Search is slow

Even if I look for the same app over and over again, it doesn’t speed up. Doesn’t seem like a caching issue to me. Perhaps the second time you were just .1-.2 seconds slower on the enter button?

MJBrune OP , to KDE in KDE Start Search is slow

I used to use Yakuake but realized I don’t always want a terminal. In fact, most of the time I do not want a terminal and if I do, I want it at a specific location. So most of the time I use the start->typing thing for firefox, steam, blender, and sometimes terminals that I am just going to use to run system-wide commands in.

MJBrune OP , to KDE in KDE Start Search is slow

Nothing is throttling my CPU unless it’s somehow defaulted on in OpenSuse, Manjaro, Debian, or Linux Mint. Also these same distros, I installed other DEs on and had it work just fine. It’s a AMD Ryzen 9 3900x 4 ghz 12 cores.

This is specifically a KDE problem. So question, if you do windows key -> term/kon -> enter. As quickly as you can, does it accept the enter input and immediately launch your terminal?

MJBrune , to U.S. News in A 4% income tax on millionaires will make lunch free for Massachusetts K-12 students

How Republicans look at it: 4% of 1 million is 40,000 which is almost as much as my salary! How dare they take my whole salary away from me!

MJBrune , to Literature in Hey, I host a lemmy instance focused on books and reading (and all the communities that fall under that umbrella)

Is there a community for interactive novels?

MJBrune , to U.S. News in California and manufacturers strike deal over zero-emission trucks

The back sliding begins

MJBrune , to U.S. News in These cities are ending fares on transit. Here's why

I live in Tacoma, Washington, and we also just put into effect that no one under 18 needs to pay for public transit. It’s entirely free with a special Orca card. It seems like the whole state is on the path to making it free for everyone some day.
