People leaving Twitter now is not very impressive. Less “seeing the light” and more “Trumpgret”.

I’ll remind you that the Debian project left Twitter over a year ago. So the EFF isn’t as fast moving or comfortable with change like … Debian.

Conspiracy theories are a plot by Big Dumb to make us think less.

Audiophiles get a lot of friction, but this kind of person exists in almost any hobby. People fascinated by equipment and ascetics who loose the plot about what their hobby is all about.

The fine print is worse. If you cancel, you owe a fee equal to the rental price for the remainder of the year.

It makes strategic sense to decouple from American tech now that they know we’ere an unreliable ally. Microslop won’t guarantee your data won’t go through American servers and jurisdictions. It’s also resistance to Tariff wars and Greenland bullshit that pokes the US in it’s conspirator industry, Big Tech.

Gnome get’s up and out of my way. 9/10.

This is a weird way to say that PC tech is stagnated and improvements between “generations” is incremental.

It’s not a reverse solar panel. It’s not a solar anything. It requires a difference in heat…

The solar part is because the Sun is responsible for the heat differential.

FYI: the prefix “win” is software jargon for insecure software to let advanced users know to avoid.

This might not be feasible. IDK how you could install a whole OS, inside of another, without looking like a serious virus or malware. There are many files that cannot be changed while Windows is running (why it needs to reboot so often for updates). And no sane OS is going to let a program edit things like the MBR.

The other day, my mother approached me about Office alternatives. Before she retired, she daily drove Office, but feels like it’s changed so much that learning a new program isn’t any more friction than keeping up with AI bullshit.

Debian cut ties in January, so if you quit after that, you’re officially slower to change than Debian.

Slavish devotion to Musk? Utilitarian ethics? Grock is just the average reddit user in 2013.

Any platform that’s advertising based is a propaganda outlet. Reddit’s function is to manipulate pubic opinion.

I had to switch to Linux because it wasn’t presented with any option besides Microsoft when I learned how to computer.

Journalism and activism work.

It’s interesting to see the site treat it’s unpaid workers more and more like low level employees. I guess capitalists just can’t help themselves.
