Supreme Court ruling shields presidents on official acts
  • This is why this election is so important. I know it's said in every election but this one may be the last free* election.

    That * is there because I know that Republicans have made inroads in red states, with many secretaries of state either vowing to not verify a Biden win or not affirming that they will certify the election.

    Please, for the love of democracy and our Republic, consider volunteering as an election official or as an observer.

  • Trump: "Immigrants are taking Black jobs"
  • EVEN IF immigrants are taking "black jobs"....WHO IS HIRING THE IMMIGRANTS?!

    WHY is it always the immigrants fault for being hired and never the capital class hiring the immigrants?!

    Jesus fucking Christ his followers are dumb.

  • Bisexuals of the blade
  • I want this to star Alison Brie and Gillian Jacobs as the two lesbians. With Joel McHale being the brother.

    Dani Pudi as the other bisexual's awkward best friend.

    Donald Glover as one of the best men.

    The script practically writes itself.

  • What's Happened Since Time Dropped Its Paywall 1 Year Ago
  • The problem is that Time and every other news outlet think they are the cats pajamas and deserve your subscription. They suffer a similar problem to streaming platforms except news is not exclusive.

    If these companies could organize and build a "pay once, get access to everything everywhere" model, they would see subscriptions go through the roof and get more money. But since the owners of these news outlets want only their own subscribers to go up, it's never going to happen.

    I'm not going to pay for 5-10 news subscriptions no matter how great the reporting is.

    But I'd be willing to pay $20 or so a month if that meant I can access any article on any news website.

  • FCC hits Verizon with $1M fine for dropping 911 calls, again • The Register
  • Never profits. Must be revenue.

    Companies have ways of looking like they don't make a profit, especially when it comes to filing taxes.

    "Oh, we created a subsidiary in Ireland and, gosh darn, they charged us a gagillion dollars for this pen. We actually have a loss this year."

    "Stimulus please!"

  • Experimental solar plant in Germany
  • For someone who knows nothing about electric generation, can someone ELI5 how this is different (good and bad) than solar panels?

    I always felt solar panels are less efficient in large scale (archers vs panels on your house) but not enough to look into it.

  • Self-Hosted (or github pages hosted) "clipboard"?

    Good day self-hosters! I'm not exactly sure what to call what I'm looking for besides a "clipboard". Let me describe my problem and what my ideal solution is.

    At work, I get a lot of slack DMs that ask for the same information. It's not consistent to the point I would just pin the information in my Windows 11 clipboard. But it's often enough that I'd prefer to give people the same information each time it's asked.

    I'm limited in what I can build on my work computer. In an ideal world, I'd do what Gilfoyle did and make and bot but I lack the time and skills for such a task. Right now, I solve this with a very long notepad, which is subject to copy/paste errors. If I don't highlight everything correctly or if I accidentally copy over an existing line. That kind of thing.

    What I was thinking was a very simple website where the items I'm copying are in tiles that can be tagged and searched. Once I find what I'm looking for, I can click the button to copy it to my clipboard and then go on with my life.

    Due to restrictions on my work computer, I cannot host containers or host a website, though a fully self-contained HTML page with javascript I could do.. Ideally this is something that can be build using Github Pages build with Jekyll but so far, I haven't found a theme that mimics the behavior I'm looking for and I lack the time (though not the skills) to build it.

    I'd prefer the github route so that I can share the page with others on my team who get asked similar questions.

    I am also able to deploy a website via Github Pages (with .nojekyll).

    I have to think something similar to this already exists but I imagine the restrictions on having no backend might be the challenge. Love to hear your thoughts!

    Edit: added context for Gilfoyle

    Thank you all for the great suggestions. I should have added in this post that my work does not allow software with Copyleft (Don't get me started. I'm a strong copyleft advocate and it annoys me that my company only takes and never gives back to OSS). I'm going to give TiddlyWiki out. License is friendly with my work, seems simple enough to run.

    That said, Logseq seems to be pretty interesting as well. Might try this out on my on machine to see if I like it.
