that second part is exactly why there is a lack of hci work in the linux space. Hci is a specialty, just like coding is. The standard ask of "create a pr with the code" is asking peopae who don't typically code to do so, in addition to doing the work of researching the problm, designing a solution, and then testing that solution for suitability.

Since the only mechanism most open source projects have for accepting contribution is code, and the ask is usually for code, there is never even an opportunity to submit design work.

Nothing, I have no strong opinion of lemmygrad.

this is a great shot of a great bridge. Really reveals a new perspective. Also fuck cuomo

Went and fished out the link for you, this is to give a second notif so I don't secretly edit It in: [email protected]

i could certainly see that argument having same weight, but the practical application of it isn't as a protest, but as a thought ending cliche. PPB is linked when the interlocuter has decided the thread is over, independent of whether they actually had much participation.

I agree, there is certainly a place for confrontational protest, hell, if your protest doesn't make people upset, then its not working. But as you say, this is lemmy. Its not a good context, in my estimation, for a soup pour, particularly when that soup pour is in defence some pretty controversial stuff. Many will say this is milquetoast waffling, which is probably fair, I guess, but I am here to relax and I don't find threat of disgust for mistepping someone's Bizmarkian statist realpolitik to be relaxing.

And, ultimately, I advocate more for a filtering than a complete removal, simply because the discussion is important. There are forums here where conversation is ecouraged, and there ar forums where circle jerk is encouraged, and if the former is done stridently but in good faith, I want it to continue. I personaly don't need the circle jerk, however.

i do appreciate your analasys, and it does make me view that stuff a little more charitably. I also appreciate your use of the interobang. This open source phone keyboard can't do that yet, and I feel its a loss.

The slrpnk community is quite good, lots of resources and good exchange of ideas.

thats totally fair. I'm not actually on lemmy.ml, and my instance sees no real reason to talk ibout hexbear. Their trolling isn't disruptive to our communities, and is fairly easily filtered

Yeah, I subscribe to and participate in soma hexbear communities. I don't throw it all out. And of course, the majority of critique of liberation will come from the right wing. There are some anarchist comnunities on lemmy, I hope to see you there some time!

Hexbear is known for trolling, regardless of their political stance, unless there is a material analysis that pig poop balls advances the cause somehow.

Oh, no, most of the critique, especially of lemmygrad, is from a right wing stance (right wing from an anarchist prospective). There are are plenty of good conversations to be had about the role of activism and the state in achieving liberation. But the standard critique is a knee jerk reaction.

I blocked those two hexbear comnunities because they are the most likely to insert hexbear's wild and unpleasant meme culture into my timeline. They aren't terribly interested in any discussion that doesn't start and end with their viewpoint, cause its meme culture.

I have an 60% confidence I will get sea-lioned for this comment. Also a 20% chance I will get pig poop balls, although highlighting it may increase those odds

edit: after 5 hours I did not get sea-lioned. I admit I was overly critical in that estimate.
