@Azure @shel Sorry what I said really is far easier said than done for sure, or else it wouldn't be a problem. Living like a hermit wherever you are wouldn't help at all in bridging that divide so that is understandable. Plus some people feel so profoundly rejected by the places where they grew up they would never go back.

However the really big cities are not the only option as there are many "second cities" that are very livable but overlooked.

@Azure @shel An even bigger issue is that they don't even come back. If more people went back and we're positive contributors to those communities there would be far less resentment.

There is also the implication that those who leave for the big city come back with "completely different values". I don't fully agree. It is that difference in values that induce people to leave in the first place and the big city experience reinforces and refines those values.

@shel The benefits of living outside those expensive major centres extends far beyond those personal benefits of affordability and practicality. It benefits society as a whole because it promotes diversity and understanding.

With all the "different" people aspiring to flee to the "real" cities they are contributing to the cultural divide, living amongst and preaching to the converted as it were. "Flyover-state dwellers" are good honest tolerant people given a chance.

@ghost I guess I should also add that you should not donate just any unneeded item. Non cash donations are always welcomed if you do not have money to give but donors should always ask what is required.

During the Calgary flood and the Ft. McMurray fires there were specific requests made too but in some cases they went viral and they got way too much of what they asked for and not enough of other things so in the end they said cash or volunteering your time was best.

@ghost I would add that if you are considering buying an item for the sole purpose of donating it that you reconsider your decision and donate the money instead so that the charity can obtain exactly what fits their needs. You should limit your donation of actual goods to items that you already have that are no longer needed.

I wish proper federated identity management / authentication would gain traction quicker so this sort of thing wouldn't be a thing:

@plsburydoughboy Back in primary school did you ever have that kid who was picked on by everyone who was the target of a kind of "open inside joke" where that kid wasn't fully in on it to realise she/he wasn't the target and dug it and played right along too?

Yeah that's #covfefe I think. And Trump is the hapless paste-eating kid in the bull's eye. Sad. But too tempting for so many to leave alone...

@bunnyhero @ghost I could never get used to calling pop soda. Soda will always be something you wash clothes with or put in baking or the clear *flavourless* bubbly stuff you mix with gin.

Bubbly sugar drinks are pop...so is bubbly sugary music. POP == BUBBLY + SUGARY

@nolan We should all be doing as much as possible to figure Facebook out of existence. It is the AOL of out time...a BBS/forum site that grew completely out of control and is a blight on the open 'net.

My strategy is not to abandon Facebook, but make sure I keep my presence on there as unidirectional as possible by never sharing Facebook URLs and when I bother posting there at all I make a special effort to get people to click away from facebook.

@ink_slinger A lot of people choose to be vegan based on the ethical / environmental issues around industrial scale factory farming, but they forget that such factory farming is an issue with non animal products as well. Better to eat a healthy, balanced diet overall than to struggle with a contrived diet to make a political statement. Support local producers or better yet keep a garden if you can.

@MightyPork @jk comms gear always comes with cables...how thoughtful. Printer makers of course are the devil's spawn who ask for our would in exchange for ink / toner and we are supposed to be grateful we even get a power cord let alone a USB cable.

That there is the root of the Ethernet/USB cable dichotomy.

@BryanLunduke I recall that you have said you are a "rolling release kind of guy", which I can relate to. I was wondering if you had any preferences/tips/opinions/etc on managing/coordinating updates to rolling releases on multiple systems, and espeically on VMs and containers.

Also somewhat related, I am intrigued by the concept of flatpak for application distribution but haven't seen too much info on managing updates (especially security). Any insights?
