Why do people buy anything besides drugs at a CVS?

Don’t concern yourself with hardening.

Just use your computer like you normally would, solving issues as you encounter them.

Don’t let people drag you down rabbit holes.

I totally agree.

Fantastic. It’s my understanding that SDL is responsible for why we can connect generic controllers to Linux without having to download specific drivers.

That’s exactly what I thought.

Yep.

Sigh.

The grift continues.

Still better than X and Mastodon, so yes.

Except it’s not decentralized, so it’s not better than Mastodon.

You mean aggressively lobby for right wing takeover and attempt to influence international governance?

I mean do whatever he thinks will make his business the most amount of profit.

You sound like a foot-soldier doing the dirty work for his lord. By that I mean, you’re arguing in favor of a platform that only exists to make the owners of it as much money as possible.

Try to see it for what it is.

So… censorship and not-actually-being-decentralized are your reasons for liking it more?

shitty CEO

Err… don’t be fooled. The CEO of bluesky is only in this to make money. If he could do what musk does, odds are he would.

How is it better?

If it’s really decentralized, where are the other instances?

So is twitter and all the other clones.

That’s still not an excuse to go with the centralized option when centralization is what put people in this position.

This is the post-scarcity shift. This is how it happens.

We need to take, by force, those who have too much and give it to those who have too little.

They will be kicking and screaming. That means we’re doing something right, because they are not our allies.

People want to jump on the bandwagon and assume they know everything about new technology.

It’s really easy to take advantage of these laymen with things like traveling to mars or… building underground highways of tubes so people can use transportation like those bank chutes.

I hope one day, we as a species can recognize these patterns so that we may take steps to break them.

We don’t need some “big new tech” to solve the world’s problems. We need to turn around and help out our fellow man who has less than us. We have the tools, just not the desire.

It’s a cultural problem.

Gotta keep in mind, profit can always be distorted based on how much employees are getting paid.

Someone is making money. In fact, a lot of people are.

I swear, we’re just witnessing the next power-grab by people richer than us.

Anyone who isn’t advocating for Mastodon, the federated option, is either a fool or being fooled.

Yep. Citizens’ United guaranteed that by allowing corporations to funnel an unlimited amount of money into campaigns.

Just a heads up, if spending wasting egregious amounts of money didn’t influence the outcome of elections, why would people do it?

If Intel didn’t have yield issues for over a decade, wouldn’t they be much further ahead than AMD by now?

Kinda weird how their production problems conveniently coincide with what will keep them “neck n’ neck” with the competition for as long as possible.

Fuck, I hate hearing about these people.

I think I’m just gonna ignore you. Sorry OP.

Keep making fan projects, just ignore the law and distribute it anonymously.

Copyright and patent laws need to die. Future generations are laughing at us for how stupid we are in keeping them around.

Fuck copyright and patent laws.
