me, i've always felt comfortable here, even though i tend to lean left. any idea is worth a debate, in my opinion, even if i positively don't agree with it. sometimes formulating your own argument against it makes you realize that you're mising the picture completely. always have an open mind.
what i don't like are people who just regurgitate whatever comes to them from the news, or faecesbook, or wherever. think through it. look at the source material, if you can. make up your own damn mind. and if you don't want to do that, or don't have time, keep your trap shut and listen to others who know. you might learn something.
LibreNMS is great. I like it a lot better than Zabbix for monitoring things - it's much less chatty in terms of alerts, and has saner defaults.
I don't get a lot of news, or follow a lot of social media positions on whatever topic - Palestine or Ukraine or whatever is going on with daycares in Minnesota or whatever.
I come up with my own position pretty independently. It seems to most often align with the "rhetoric" of "my side" - the lean Right. There is this theory that Right or Left is genetic - hard wired - that you're predestined to agree with where your genetic predisposition will lead you.
My experience is that this must be true - because when I do catch up with the news, I always find myself going, "well, duh - I was already there - before I read this article."
It seems OBVIOUS to me - people are going to agree with our without the media, the programming - the nudge - with what affirms what they already believe - Left or Right.
But - just because we're genetically predisposed to agree - doesn't mean I'm not RIGHT, and you're not wrong. My genetic predisposition to the truth is just as strong as your predisposition to the wrong.
;)
But I don't hate you just because you are genetically predisposed to be wrong. I just follow the science.
maybe the continued cold in the east has frozen people's fingers or brains so they either don't have anything to say or they can't type it out.
