We used to have progressive income taxes that did this.

Reagan, Thatcher and their ilk pulled them because “trickle down, a rising tide lifts all boats, thousand points of light, blah blah blah”

Steve Irwin would want anomalocaris

Yup, am a Canadian, can confirm.

We stopped building public housing in the 1990s, because we were all told that “the market” would provide. Well, the market provided. For real estate developers and house-traders.

Maybe, oh, just build public housing at scale instead of relying on a patchwork of underfunded and undergoverned agencies and P3 initiatives?

This show is just so good.

Stupid and juvenile, yes, but it’s a love letter to fans in a way that only SNW comes close to being.

It sadly doesn’t quite work right on KDE. You can get close: you can show an application launcher, or a exposé-like window overview, or a pager, but you can’t show all of them at once in a way that’s easy to work with between like Gnome does.

Heck, even Gnome regressed Gnome 40, as you don’t get the vertical desktop overview any more. At least there’s shell extensions that let me get Gnome 3’s behaviour back.

It’s a real pity, because I like KDE, and definitely the KDE apps, more, but the Super-key overview is no hard to quit.

Aren’t these things trackable? Don’t phones have an IMEI and can’t they be remote-bricked if stolen?

I mean, police don’t care, but Apple could render these useless if they wanted to.

The only reason I don’t use KDE is because it doesn’t do the super-key expose/dash/overview like Gnome.

If you thought Viagra and Ozempic had a market, just wait…

This will be huge amongst the wealthy.

Jesus Christ, if that’s real, the WaPo editorial board needs a slap upside the head.

Stop. Rationalizing. Trump.

What it it with right wingers and stupid hair?

No, it’s much more mundane; Netanyahu just wants to stay out of prison.

If someone could port AUX’s UI, that would be perfect.

And as a fellow System 6/7 fan, it’s love, not masochistim. Long live the spatial Finder!

Regime change coming up for the sake of “freedom”.

Anyone who reads the National Review likely doesn’t care, but I’m glad to see calls for “decorum” levelled against the right for a change.

Well, ackshually, Linux is just a kernel… /s

Hello there, fellow Ontarian!

In seriousness, Ford is a great example of my point because he talks to how people feel. It doesn’t matter that it’s bullshit at best or whitewashing of his latest grift at worst, he’s at least acknowledging enough voters’ concerns and fears, and while tossing a bauble here or there (eg, booze in corner stores, buck a beer) to look like he’s doing something for the common person.

His opposition doesn’t do this. Stiles gets ignored, and Crombie just seems like a weak Ford impersonator.

The polticial left needs to do better. Yes that would probably mean getting called socialist, but since that’ll happen anyway they may as well own it.

Maybe, just maybe, liberal democracies need to do a better job solving problems for constituents and less time fellating billionaires.

That might help.

I mean, when I see a right-wing populist telling me they can fix all my problems, I know they’re a lying, opportunistic piece of shit, but I can also see the appeal because at least they’re saying that there’s problems and that they’ll do something, which is more than milquetoast centrists will do.

You know what? A young Fassbender would have been a great Feyd-Rautha.

I mean, McAvoy was the God Emperor…
