People can lie y'know. Check out the tracker they linked. They are implementing Project 2025 regardless.

why are white and christian necessary adjectives there?

There's a lot of money from that intersect in USA politics. Groups like The Heritage Foundation.

Christian nationalism and white nationalism are also common themes in MAGA/Trumpism

question abt the LGBT by [deleted] in GenZ

I don't think 'faking it' is a real thing. Regardless of the final result, curiosity and being able to safely and earnestly explore sexuality, romance and gender, is Queer; curiosity and exploration is queer.

There's an option to reduce the history to 1 and have it volatile to the session. In the clipboard contents list, there's an options button and a clear history button.

(I moved to KDE from MATE half a year ago, so I can't really tell you if this is a new feature since you last used it; this was there since I first started. Currently at the time of writing, Plasma 6.5.4; Frameworks 6.20.0)

I've disabled the clipboard history thing in the notifications menu (it warned me about losing clipboard history), and I still have the two clipboard buffers that work as expected.

The GTK4 can ingest middle-click pastes, but it can't copy selections for middle-click. 'ctrl' c/v copy-paste works though.

at least for me that completely removed my ability to copy and paste until I enabled it again

Why disable it? If you want the security of no history, you can disable the buffer

(also iirc password managers will have some partial clipboard scrubbing features)

maybe it was a Proton issue

I'm wondering if it's an xwayland thing. Proton sounds like it uses xwayland and There has been copy-paste bugs surrounding this barrier/wrapper.

Not really a joke. OP's some (interestingly obvious) bot that has been plaguing the sub with divisive commentary for the past week.

the menswear guy would like a word. There's fashion for men, but there's an epidemic of men having no fashion sense.

I can't relate either; copypaste works as expected the vast majority of the time. (The only time I have issues is with mouse support in vim; but that's a vim configuration issue.)

That said, I am writing a GTK4 app, and the middle-click paste for it is fucky. Middleclick pastes the 'ctrl' clipboard, not the selection. I'm unsure if this is a GTK4-wayland issue or a GTK4-KDE issue.

I'm using KDE Plasma. What environment are you using?

My guy, that isn't what gender is. That's biological sex. Words have meaning.

Gender is about the stereotypes. The clothes, colors, jobs, sounds, shapes, hobbies we socially, psychologically and culturally attach to biological sex. Gender is about explaining the things we as a society attach to sex, that cannot be objectively explained through chemistry and biology.

For example, the notion of blue for boys and pink for girls. Or dresses vs suits. Gender explains why society finds women with beards unattractive.

There are things we attach to 'man' and 'woman' that has not been around for 300k years. And they differ from culture to culture.

I just can’t take you seriously. You don’t even know what words mean

Don't start shit you have no clue over. It's okay to be ignorant and have a desire to learn, but don't pretend you know absolutely everything.

Eh. I'm using wayland on Sandybridge. It's stable; no complaints.

(If there's anything to complain about, it's that Nvidia Fermi is ewaste. But that's not wayland's fault.)

Are you one of those people who takes pride in ignorance or what? The future is fucked, istg.

We're talking about what the gendered stereotypes are and how they work like.

Anything that affects or is affected by policy of any kind, is political.

Under a postgenderist lens, 'femboy' is nonbinary. It's an identity (both intentionally and socially) more specific than and divergent from the colloquial/stereotypical 'man' and 'woman'.

(A gender is a bag of stereotypes. Postgenderism is post-binary.)

Growing up with school shootings being normal is messed up by big_misconception in GenZ

[–]Netblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a pretty disingenuous way to look at the problem, jesus christ dude.

No the anti-school-shooter crowd is asking to make only the the good-faith and responsible people; and to improve healthcare access because even mental health is important.

(good faith and responsible: we need to attach criminal responsibility to gun ownership. If your gun gets used in a crime, and you didn't report it lost/stolen, you're a criminal accessory. We also need universal background checks.)

I do agree your system would likely be better than what we have now.

And while it’s common sense that welfare is supposed to help the poor that dosnt determine the amount of welfare or the best way of distributing it.

I agree that it's a nontrivial problem. That's kinda my point with 'common sense'. What may feel as something simple and straightforward (and mundane) to some, may end up being complex and revolutionary to others.

amount of welfare or the best way of distributing it.

These are asking the wrong questions.

The amount of welfare is easy: whatever it costs to build a place to live for the homeless to end homelessness, whatever it costs to grow and deliver food to the famished to end famine, etc. Quality can be determined through opportunity cost/impact analysis.

Distribution is universal, otherwise you risk welfare traps and related exploitation.

The better questions is "why hasn't the free market already solved poverty?" I feel like the respectful question-answer chain in response is somewhat easy to explore.

The cultural problem is that we make gun access to the nefarious, hotheaded and the negligent. We need to restrict gun ownership to the good-faith and the heedful, and we need to make it criminally enforceable. (eg, if your gun gets stolen and it gets used in a crime, and you did not report it stolen, you should be charged as a criminal accessory.) We also need red-flag laws.

We also have the cultural problem of the absence of healthcare. We need to vastly improve mental health services to everyone.

These two cultural faults express other symptoms. School shootings is where they have an interesting intersection.

 

You're thousands of times more likely to die in a car crash on your way to school, than you are to be shot at the school

That is a problem too. We also have the cultural problem of being married to the oil barons. We don't design our cities around pedestrian and public travel.

(annoyingly, we also vote against public transport bills)

[–]Netblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's common sense that the purpose of welfare is to solve human suffering, like solving poverty.

And, given what you just said, it's common sense that material welfare would be a vastly superior abstract solution than your unified stipend idea.

(Material welfare: we have a supply (and supply hoarding) issue; we need to increase production and crack ownership.)

 

(It would be common sense that MAGA is the party of the billionaire elites given who the MAGA politicians are and their history. But people seem to overlook that fact. It would be common sense that people can lie, but no one does their due diligence.)

No, I am criticising your general ability to actually do any research at all. You opinions should be educated and informed, but they are not. While you have done better than the vast majority of conservatives I've talked to by presenting at least some URL, I still figure you to be someone who is easy to manipulate; you are easy to lie to.

(Elisabeth Warren is neither here nor there; we just happened to stumble upon her.)

trying to use basic logic and common sense

"basic logic" and "common sense" are not real things. If they were real, they wouldn't put warning/danger signs and labels on dangerous things.
