Are people shifting to #Linux left and right these days, or am I just too much in the #opensource #echochamber that "switch to Linux" and #endof10 posts are the only things I actually see? It could be that everyone actually loves #windows11 and #AI and #spyware and I'm just an #oldmanyellsatcloud with a head full of #FOSS #copium .... hashtag #yearofthelinuxdesktop

When the Danish (& EU) gov continues to call US its closest ally & partner, & buying arms from the US, there is no consequence for Trump. Nor from EU. Bullies cannot be appeased, but still, that is the strategy DK, UK, EU have chosen. Appeasement is not a strategy, but #copium, as they all hope >

Denmark's gov & EU continues to be in complete denial over the threat from US. They still think #appeasement is a strategy. Its not. Its #copium and criminally neglect of duty. Venezuela is being robbed of its oil, while EUr&DK clapped. Why has DK not sent say 2000 soldiers to Nuuk already? >

The "be the country Russian propaganda says you are" meme, but with the word EUROHOMO replacing "country" and joint EU and rainbow flags on the soldier's chest.

@fasterthanlime everyone who has an #ASN said that.

Not shure if #copium or just means to self-justify paying #RIR membership dues on top if #ISP service/upstream traffic/bandwith.

Two blurbs from The New York Times email newsletter. Both show the NYT huffing the copium hard. Even in the face of an (moderate) socialist candidate winning an election by offering vaguely left-wing policies like free buses and co-op grocery stores, they still think the key takeaway is "actually, the voters want a 'more calibrated, moderate' vision."

Moderately socialist, maybe. And they're upset that a candidate who won the election outright --- not just a plurality --- is less conciliatory towards his political adversaries.

The Republicans warning they have a problem

By Jess Bidgood

Victorious Democrats spent Wednesday eagerly pointing to all their midterm lessons from the previous night. Highlight affordability. Call out President Trump’s less popular policies. Run on a bold, populist vision — or perhaps a more calibrated, moderate one.

But it might actually be Republicans who stand to learn the most from the results.

Zohran Mamdani, New York City’s mayor-elect, named a transition team of government veterans. He shed his conciliatory tone in a New York Times interview.

@Raccoon The fact that i'm sure there are folks seeing this short thread thinking i'm a downer and i need to just stay positive perhaps and not state what i feel is the obvious...

I think lends some credibility to the concept that sometimes the #fediverse is better at #copium than reality.

I'm not trying to be an ass, i'm just being real.

@gamingonlinux Maybe they were prepping for the release of Steam Frame? #copium

Al easily has 2 years left. May not have a deep playoff run on his legs, Tatum back etc. Lock it in #copium

"Tesla Will Derive 80% of Its Value From Optimus Robot, Musk Says"

Like... you don't *understand* what a straight out of central casting Good Daddy would do to the Svens in the EU.

He would NOT remove most of the tariffs (just like Biden didn't) lolololol, he's a California vintner, he might ADD some for wine. And as long as they NEVER have to make another decision about European security, the EPP farmers' lobby would take one look at him and go: "I can fix him!" 🫦

The doom and gloom surrounding #MarioKartWorld lately is Grade-S bullshit. No it’s not dead. #Grifters be spinning narratives because negativity sells and people fall for it.

Personally, I’m a solo gamer who has put a good bit of time in the game so far and barely touched the online. So even if the online were to go inactive, it wouldn’t affect me any.

This game is perfect for just vibing and has plenty of challenges I can take on without having to go against real players.

No #copium here. I’ve played all the other Mario Karts mostly solo throughout my life, too. So I wouldn’t even notice if the online went bye bye.

If you think about it, you are constantly tasting yourself. And whenever you eat raw mayonnaise with nothing else, you aren't doing anything weird, you are just tasting yourself with a little condiment of mayonnaise.

#copium

So #trump sheep are now considering Trump sending flat tarrif letters to countries that didn't want to negotiate with us as "trade deals," now.

They got none, in reality.

It's just the new #copium they spew.

It's more like extortion, really. It would be like the mayor of a city going around to all the foreign businesses to say "Hey if you want to do business in this city, you now have to pay us an extra 25%, except you won't, your customers will,".
