floofloof , to Politics in Trump's threats are a danger to us all

I’m glad we’re seeing more journalists willing to call out this fascism for what it is. Trump wants anyone who hinders him killed. It will not be surprising if he succeeds in getting some people killed.

floofloof , to Work Reform in Seattle becomes first in U.S. to protect gig workers from sudden 'deactivation'

gig workers are being unfairly terminated, or “deactivated,” as the companies call it.

I, for one, loathe our new techbro overlords.

Thanks. I’ll check it out.

Will it run on Linux? I use Sourcetree on Windows but didn’t think it was available for Linux.

floofloof , to xkcd in xkcd #1597: Git

I have used Mercurial at work for years, and Git for side projects. I screw up far less often in Mercurial, and its tools are easy to use. It’s strange how thoroughly Git took over.

floofloof , to xkcd in xkcd #1597: Git

Is there a really good free Git GUI for Linux? I have tried a bunch of them but all the good ones seem to be closed source and paid.

Yes, astroturf is fake grass, and astroturfed movements are fake grassroots movements.

Nazi edgelords.

floofloof , to Work Reform in I think minors need a union, may help with the safety issues at the work place

The need for capital to find ever cheaper labor to exploit, accelerated by Republicans. I was trying to avoid loaded terms like “civilized” and “third world”, but it does not make the USA look good at all.

floofloof , to Work Reform in I think minors need a union, may help with the safety issues at the work place

It’s appalling that this is even a question. Children don’t need better terms for working at the abattoir, the garbage dump or the sawmill; they need not to be working in those places.

floofloof OP , to Politics in ‘Project 2025’: plan to dismantle US climate policy for next Republican president

Comically evil is at least funny. But it’s not at all funny how these people just look at every single issue and choose the malign option.

floofloof , to Work Reform in Our generation was told liberal economics would make us free. Look at us now. We were misled

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism

Liberalism is not what people in the USA understand by the word (i.e. anything left of pretty far right). If you hang out with socialists you’ll find they’re not fond of liberals, because liberals are capitalists. This meaning of the word is why the most damaging, ultra-capitalist, right-wing economic policies of the past 50 years are known as neoliberalism.

floofloof , to Politics in Florida pensions took a bath on 'woke' beer ... and Ron DeSantis wants revenge

DeSantis lamented the company’s “political agenda,” as embodied by hiring spokesmodel Dylan Mulvaney, as having cost shareholders, especially in Florida, where the state seems to have held stock for months as the state’s politicians and others on the right mocked the brand and helped to erode its market share.

It is impressive how consistently the “party of personal responsibility” finds someone else to blame for the consequences of its own actions.

floofloof , to Politics in Donald Trump brands US a ‘third -world hellhole’ run by ‘perverts’ and ‘thugs’

He’s right about the fascism thing, but for the wrong reasons.
