@ThrillaRilla369 Imma, tryna, finna, etc.

What’s a common saying that annoys you? I’ll go first: I digress

@SteveLovesAmmo That we were always on the verge of getting blown up by the USSR.

Just because we were taught something our entire lives doesn’t make it true. Name me one of those things.

@GovStitt I nominate permanent standard time for Oklahoma. I lived in Arizona for four years and loved the permanent standard time.

@oliviajones_06 Absolutely.

Would you support completely banning Daylight Savings time?

@RondureGyre @MissFuzzball @kjgillenwater Except people that work.

@MissFuzzball @kjgillenwater People fail to realize that we live on a globe, and what may be ok for Arizona would suck for Connecticut The majority of people can enjoy day and having extra light after work Virtually nobody is going to be up and about at 4am when the sun comes up on standard time

🚨 FUZZ POLL! 🚨 I see Standard Time in my trends. That being so, please weigh in, and please RT. Americans only for this one, please. Which clock system do you prefer?

@CaptainCons What about the actual citizen that just got off work and has to get the lawn mowed. I usually avoid people that think it’s okay to tell their neighbors what to do. How about Cons keep to his own affairs and the neighbors will keep to theirs.

Neighbor last night had his lawn guy going at 630pm I feel like all lawn work with loud tools must be done between 730a-4p. Outside of that and you’re rude

@brockpierson I do remember using Altavist as well as Excite.com, Yahoo among others.

Be honest, have you searched the internet using this exact search engine before?

People are not getting this. In January, most of the country gets roughly 9–10 hours of daylight no matter what we call the clock. Example: STANDARD TIME: ☀️ Sunrise: ~7:15 AM 🌅 Sunset: ~5:00 PM PERMANENT DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME: ☀️ Sunrise: ~8:15 AM 🌅 Sunset: ~6:00 PM That is the SAME amount of daylight. You did not gain sunlight. You just moved the clock one hour later and created darker mornings in winter. The sun doesn’t change. The clock does

It’s imperative that we revert to STANDARD, not Daylight time, for two reasons, one of which you may have never considered. You know the first: solar noon is closest to 12 o’clock all year. That means an equal number of hours before and after noon each day. This also means earlier sunrises which are significantly better for establishing a healthy circadian rhythm. The second reason is that nearly ONE THIRD of US counties are in the wrong timezone. A significant swath of the country isn’t only an artificial hour ahead because of daylight time… but TWO HOURS ahead of true solar time. Year-round daylight time, especially without recalibrating time zones, would establish this error permanently, affecting millions of Americans. We should be letting the Sun dictate the day the way God made it. Arbitrary, artificial tampering would be worse for us all. Fix the time zones and affix standard time.

@Undoomed Because he is a male. Also there is no such thing as a transgender any more than there is a "cis" anything.

*him.

@wydAriaX @grok If you are a guy, you don't want your privates touching the seat as you sit down. You'll notice they are more oval shaped and than the standard round ones. They give you a lot more room.

Awkward question: Hey @grok what is that little space in the lid of the toilet for? 🤔👀

@ayesha_fatiima I did.

Canonical keeps making decisions like they’re building a corporate ecosystem instead of a Linux distro. Ubuntu became popular because it made Linux simple without taking freedom away from users. Now everything feels forced: - Firefox through Snap - Snap everywhere - Ubuntu Pro ads This is not the Ubuntu we loved anymore. It was never just about Snaps. It’s about trust. Many Linux users left Windows/macOS to escape this kind of ecosystem control. Fedora honestly feels closer to the old Ubuntu spirit now. Might finally be time to switch to fedora

Happy Memorial Day.

@EL4USA I don’t see an option for dope head.

If George Floyd were still alive today, what do you think he'd be doing?

@NetworkChuck I don’t drive my computer.

Which OS is your daily driver? Why?

@brettatkin @NancyMace It is called living within your means. Stop spending.

@NancyMace How will you fund the state and local governments to pay for things like schools, police, firefighters, roads, etc? I'm not from SC, but I hear things like this, and I always wonder where the money comes from then.

Which would you prefer? Eliminate the state income tax or property taxes? Please pick one (although truth be told I want to do both).

@abelal27 @verge Usually their posts are all political.

@verge Verge reporting actual tech story. Who threatened you guys??

Apple agrees to pay iPhone owners $250 million for not delivering AI Siri theverge.com/tech/924706/ap…

@MarketPalmer_ I know that I would never send a text again

Apple could start charging $3/month for iMessage and I don't think they'd lose a single customer.

@droidbuilds I agree with you.

Hot take: Microsoft Edge is actually better than Google Chrome Prove me wrong
