“If man chooses oblivion, he can go right on leaving his fate to his political leaders. If he chooses Utopia, he must initiate an enormous education program - immediately, if not sooner.”

50+ Caucasian cis male multinational tech company middle manager here.
I speak Spanish on work zooms, when everyone else is in Mexico.
TBH I do it because I try to avoid being the asshole boss who everyone else has to accommodate, and instead be the pluralistic, humble boss that shows appropriate deference and respect to the employees that actually do the work.
Offense: “a bit rude”
Punishment: no job, bad references, no health insurance
I’m not going to berate anyone for doing the right thing a little after I personally did
You individually don’t have to do everything. Drop the one least important holding from your life, and let the company know why you did it
Nobody has to die. A fuckton of us just have to do without Disney+ for a bit.

Racial tensions are high
JFC you just made me realize … what if Tyler was a POC? With Trump throwing gasoline on the fire like he is now? Shit, we possibly could be in low level race war territory at that point

I am a tiny investor, not a pro, not really even that knowledgeable of an amateur. But for the few companies that I do have some investment in, yes actually I do keep an eye on how they are doing. Every quarter I can spend ~2 minutes checking if things look basically good and if things are going the way the management said.
When things are off, that’s my opportunity to do a quick reality check whether this still is the best place for my money.
Reality checks. That’s what Trump and Vance hate.
I hear they are going to release all the files on Jan 6, 2026 … pass it on…
“As of this time, there’s no evidence of foul play”
Yeah, no evidence at all. Not like racial tensions at their highest in 50+ years, political assassinations happening on college campuses, and a Southern university smack in the center of where KKK activity was an open secret just a generation ago.
Probably he slipped and fell, maybe he was learning Russian culture /s
If they do, it will help with decentralization
Ppl can selfhost this open source option instead
there is no vast underground Leftist terror movement or organization in the United States
That’s what we tell people, too.
How about your gang and my gang do a link-up?
evidence
You keep using that word. He does not think that word means, what you think it means.
I was being a bit loose. You can video record people in public – just not audio. Any audio on your video recording device makes it illegal.
There are 13 US states like this
Where I live, recording someone without their consent – even in public – is a crime.
I have personally argued both sides on this. Over time I have come to favor it.
EDIT: some background
Christopher Hitchens was IMO one of the greatest orators of the 20th century.
“Our responsibility is to hate our enemies, and to destroy them before they destroy us”
He was referencing militant religions (or as he put it elsewhere, “people who actually believe the words in their Bronze Age religious texts”)
And props to the dedicated folks still running Invidious instances like https://yewtu.be/
TBH I chose Funkwhale for my solution because it looked easy and out of the box, I just add a single Docker and subdomain to my existing site.
It wound up being more or less what you describe.
I may well follow OP’s guide and nuke my Funkwhale despite the work I put into it and the fact that it does basically work for its intended purpose
Question: did you consider Funkwhale , and if so why did you choose this other stack instead?
EDIT: fix link sry
you’re gonna have to get ads
I don’t think that necessarily follows.
Have you heard of self-hosted Patreon-similar Ghost ?
