Good question. I’m honestly not sure. You have a good point about screen readers, so I think the way you have it would be preferred by those who need the text. Alternatively, I’ve seen “[sic]” used to indicate that text is reproduced exactly as it originally appeared, including errors. However, I’m not sure if that would help screen readers in any way.

I was only pointing it out because it seemed fun to claim “worht” was in any way correct. Also, I always wondered if the alt text was manually entered or if some AI/ML generated it from the submitted photo. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

Hmm, looks like there’s a typo in the alt text. It’s supposed to be worht.

It sounds like you might like Logsec. I use it for general note-keeping, but I think it would work really well as a journal because it defaults to a new time-stamped entry when you open it. These entries are presented chronology like a journal, and you can create links to other pages if you want to dive further into a specific topic.

Also, all entries are saved as standard markdown files, so they would be easy to adapt to another software later if needed. This also makes it really easy to sync data between devices with something like Syncthing.

If you like Obsidian and want open source, check out Logsec.

I miss these simpler times.

Right-hand rule bitches!

They would always start buzzing before my phone started ringing.

Yeah, but alcohol and water are both heavy in volume. Gotta set priorities when hauling out to the wilderness!

No brake calipers or power steering onboard?

Nope. That doesn’t sound like a reasonable comparison at all. Ancestral heritage and cultural affiliation are significant parts of the artificial social construct of “race”. And no, I do not believe you can defeat racism by mixing everyone together until we all share the same appearance and background. If anything, I think truly defeating racism would be celebrating those differences, not covering them up.

To be honest though, I’m mostly just being pedant because of your language in the original comment. You make some good points, but nobody makes any ground when they start off by calling people names. I suspect most of the downvotes are the result of the same kind of thinking. ✌️

Whether or not a generalizing bigot is a racist depends on more than that. Given the example, the chances are high. However, there is no French race and I find the calling of the entire population of France a single ethnic group a bit disgusting. So no, in isolation I would not call French-hate racism, but it still doesn’t make it right. Just like calling someone a “piece of shit” on the internet.

There is no Italian race! Boarders are not ethnic groups, and by claiming they are you are generalizing the contents of those boarders.

That being said, sweeping generalizations are still wrong. However, your attitude in this whole comment chain has been abhorrent and it’s surely not swinging anyone over to your viewpoint.

To be quite honest, I did some searching of race and racism before even my first response to you just be sure. I still dont agree with you and neither did what I found. Furthermore, unless there’s some votes not federating to my instance, nobody on here agrees with your initial claim.

I think I understand where your coming from, but I’m uncomfortable with blurring the distinction between national boarders and race. After all, I think we both agreed that different human races aren’t real, while nations are much more concrete. If we label all generalization as racism, I fear that it waters down the meaning of the word, just like when people call anything more authoritarian than them a Nazi.

However, we can definitely agree that sweeping generalizations are bad. Instead of spreading hate in the world, we should treat others how we would wish to be treated.

Oh, I misread your post then (E: I think you’re missing a comma). I thought you were accusing me of diving into your history. I haven’t, so I couldn’t say what you have said. However, I never accused you of saying anything in the first place. Without that, your comments make no sense.

Lol! I did no such thing. It’s just an easy target on Lemmy. Even if it is in your history, I can assure you it’s in many other people’s too. I was also thinking about an Alabamian generalization, but figured Isreal was more topical.

But now that you’ve outed yourself: shame on you ya dirty racist! 🤣

Sure, none of these labels are strictly real; they’re just words, but they have meanings. If someone instead was upset with the current actions of Isreal and said “fuck Israelis”, is that racism to you to?

Do you think any race is real?

Sure, the human race. Assuming we’re on the same page with that, it makes this bickering seem even more absurd. ✌️

Against the Italian race?

Oh, sorry!
