Good ol’ Bobby Tables

I sort by active, that usually helps

Some people just aren’t educated about big money salvia

Race is related to ethnicity but also relates to a lot of cultural factors. Race is also tied to people’s perception of a person, and also tied to an individual’s identity. There are more and different races than ethnicities.

Additionally, race is linked to discrimination. Two people can be the same ethnicity but different races, because their culture and ancestral nationality are different. This often leads to people of a certain race being seen as lesser than, even though there is no biological difference. I.e. the Irish, and Italians, who are considered white now but weren’t in the past.

On top of that, people of different ethnicities can be lumped into a singular race and be discriminated against. Like Hispanic people, who have native American, Spanish, and many other ethnicities mixed in. Or Asians who have probably the most varied amount of ethnicities in their singular “race.”

Conversely you can have someone who is mixed and is technically mostly genetically ethnicities that are considered white, and would be white passing, but because they are known to have a black parent or grew up in the black community, they are considered to be a person if color, and are discriminated against in the same way as someone who is more ethnically a POC.

This discrimination and racism can cause generational trauma and wealth disparity. Which is important to learn about so people can understand how systems, at least in the U.S., are literally built in a way that makes traditionally discriminated against races more likely to be born into poverty and less likely to get out of it. CRT strives to educate the our population on these issues.

CRT teaches about the fact that Black people and other POC in the United States have been discriminated against for generations, this discrimination is/was codified in law and local ordinances. Like laws limiting POC from getting certain loans, or moving into certain neighborhoods. Then building roads around those neighborhoods separating them from the rest of the town, making it harder for those individuals to get resources. Or the fact that, in the U.S.,public schools are funded by housing taxes in an area rather than by equal funding. Meaning that low income areas (usually populated by minorities because of the previously mentioned reasons) will inherently have less funding.

All this leads to the fact that even though a lot of the racist legislation in the U.S. is gone, a lot of minorities in the U.S. have been lower income for generations. Meaning a lot of them are starting from less and will have less opportunity to achieve because the just don’t have the same resources and education available. And today, because of all this, we are seeing things like schools being more segregated than ever, even more than they were even in times where segregation was in law.

If our population is not educated on these topics, these things will never change. These people will never get the help they need. This is why CRT in a lot of experts opinions is sorely needed in the American education curriculum.

Also +1 on fancyzones:

• customizable window snapping
• easy integration to replace regular window snapping, but only if you want if you want
• can be bound to whatever hotkeys you like

I recommend the power toys suite in general

Hey friend, technically this post doesn’t follow our rules Please make sure to ask a question in the title, thanks :)

Same thing happened to me, it seemed like it didn’t do it when I had just two accounts, but it did do it when I had 3.

Not sure if it has anything to do with certain communities not being federated to the other instances

uhhhh khakis?

Wow, it’s literally 1984

I think https://lemmy.world/c/techsupport is also for that, there’s also a lemmy.ml tech support community, I don’t remember exactly what its called though

I just use dayquil now but thanks for the rec, I’ll have to check that one out

There’s a few subs I mod that I actually care about on an alt, I just login to mod. But yeah after 12ish years I’m pretty done

And for the record, it was not my choice to keep these communites open, I was in the minority on the mod team that wanted to fully migrate.

Never tried anything line that before but I feel like you’d be better off setting up VNC for it and connecting something lightweight to your TV and just interacting with the VM via VNC

Took some nyquil because I wasn’t feeling well, I had stayed up until like 4 and I was too tired to realize that the drowsiness wouldn’t wear off before I woke up. Got up feeling almost drunk and drove to work. I feel asleep on the road and woke up with just enough time to slow down before rear ending someone at 50 mph.

To add to this, hot seems to be local, top day seems to be lemmy-wide

Schools in the US were designed to prepare kids for factory jobs initially. A lot of the structure related to that has changed but the amount of time you spend at school hasn’t. Realistically you’d want a kid to spend less time at school. But schools are now used to prepare kids for working all day and then giving up their free time to their employer. That may be a little tin hat-ie, but it’s at least partially true. However as a kid a few extra hours at school wouldn’t have cut it for me. I preferred to do my work at home, I was also super distractible because I had adhd. Additionally as others have said that just wouldn’t be feasible for a lot of kids/families.

Reddit Execs hate this one trick.

Ugh yes, I have been talking about it ever since, I got an 8inch cheap Chinese tablet to use as an e reader and it’s ALMOST the same size (and almost the same specs lmao) the only reason I’m not used my nexus 7 is usb c on this on and I soft bricked it trying to put a lightweight OS on it 😢

Hope this old POS never has another coherent thought again.

For one, if your post was removed we are required to put a removal reason to remove it.

Two, I see no record of it in the mod log. Are you sure it just wasn’t a victim of the intermittent downtime issues lemmy.world has had these past few weeks?
