Im no expert either, but he did try the beer ball putsch which landed him a trial and jail time, before his actual rise to power. So his plans for a coup were definitely there.

I’ve only experienced it from Linux and it’s a huge exercise in pain. It sometimes works, but it’s just stacks and stacks of hacks.

All the other things I’ve used work for video conferencing have worked fine in Linux or a browser.

(Or pass them along to grad students who take it extremely seriously)

The entire peer review system is somewhat of a mess since publish or perish and citation indexes have been embedded into promotion and tenure as metrics.

Oh no! I had a great experience with 2 men and a truck when I he used them! No idea it was associated with the 1 800 junk folks

You need both though. Memes and shitposts to scroll though and chuckle, and then quality stuff to engage on. Lemmys got that, and the momentum will keep it growing.
