  • So we shouldn’t house them unless and until we figure out all of the complex issues? They’re not going to benefit any at all, or have any possibility of getting on their feet, until we have a perfect solution?

    That’s what’s being said there: homelessness is not something we should do anything about, because of reasons. So let’s do nothing.

    That’s a fucking cop out.


  • Even if that is true, does it somehow invalidate the fact that they are also homeless?! Are they less deserving to be out of the elements because they have an addiction?

    That’s what I find so disgusting about this statement. It’s just an excuse and doesn’t address anything at all.

    Using his own “argument”, it would seem to me that a path to less addiction and violence would involve having a place to live and sleep.


  • I don’t know if this was true at some point, but this is definitely a false statement today.

    I have a Framework 16 w/o dGPU and it is perfect. It has long battery life, awesome performance, and has no thermal issues at all. Then there’s all the features which I don’t think I need to get into here. But I will call out support for lvfs/fwupdmgr; it’s great and in line with what I have seen with Dell and Lenovo.

    This is my forever laptop





  • “Unfortunately”? Be careful, your wording makes it sound like you would rather people be legitimately punished for letting the flag touch the ground or disposing of it improperly.

    I tried interpreting your comment in different ways and hope what you intended to say is that it’s unfortunate that he is the kind of crass person that would abuse this important freedom.

    But it’s important for us to make a distinction between those that exercise a freedom and those that abuse a freedom. We should be free to criticize or ridicule those in the latter group for the same reason that they are free to abuse it.
