    He is right about the Palestinian humanitarian orgs, been doing that for a year. I don’t know about the military, unless he means Biden is probably not doing all he can to prevent them from being misused domestically. Don’t know anything there

    Biden is not sharpening the knife: he simply placed a knife sharpener on the counter and is a good sport about letting others use it .

    It always was a caretaker presidency, that’s what I thought when he first got into office.

    I expect thoughtful words from his speeches as he gently leaves office







  • My gut reaction about lack of content in peer tube is because the platform is ethical. It’s my understanding that popular video platforms started by pirating content, marketing campaigns and other shady things . This obviously is a not a good thing here.

    This creates a cascading effect where only people who are more ethical ( rather than less ethical) post videos there. And only ethical ( more or less) people watch the videos there for more or less political reasons ( not national politics but belief how things should happen)

    There are probably ways for them to jumpstart content there , but are dismissed, never to be used because it’s against the spirit of the idea. Hopefully someone can solve this by doing something that fits into the vision !



  • I have a conspiracy theory that most users who are an expert don’t post much about that.

    For example I am an expert on two things most people find obscure; and for all my comments I just avoid talking about them. It’s too hard to wrap up an idea without lots of background information, there are no short posts or comments I can make about it.

    Almost all the highly upvoted stuff are short. Were I to try to make an expert post it would be totally ignored. So why bother for me when I can snarky about things I know nothing about ? More fun !

    I think experts who write short terse pithy comments that hit the mark, at a timely fashion, are rarer than hens teeth





  • As a dev who is in the middle of making a project myself, this is nightmarish for me to read.

    Yes, I know this is not the topic, or how you meant it, but it profoundly affected me in my own way.

    Like absolutely blows my mind. It reminds me that any solo projects I do are probably doomed to fail later due to them not being useful at all, or unknown. Or if they are used, then I will get overwhelmed probably, and quit. The only things that seem safe is a teamwork collaboration… and I suck at that.

    Right, I am off to learn a new trade, carpentry… perhaps
