Don’t worry, no matter how much you explain it Reddit and Lemmy will still act like Ubuntu is the devil and worse than Windows 11.
It’s by far the most commonly used distro, specially for beginners, which means Lemmy must hate it to protect their delusion that using Linux makes them special or superior or intellectuals, when in reality.
And I say all that as an Arch user, btw, who doesn’t like how Ubuntu’s packages are maintaned and shared.
It never fails to frustrate and shock me when I see public entities relying on private software and platforms.
My local schools rely heavily on Windows and Google. Important Govermental notices are shared on Twitter first.
This is nuts. I really think public infrastructure should be mandatorily tied to open and free solutions.
I used to think the same. I’m all for digital privacy, but listening to a microphone? That’s ridiculous, the legal ramifications would be enormous. Plus, encoding and sending all this data? Not practical, and of course, we are fully aware of confirmation bias and selective memory so for sure those personal anecdotes must be coincidences.
Then it happened to me. I use a VPN, all my devices have a billion types of ad blocking, private DNS, JavaScript disabled by default and so on. Then I mention a product next to my girlfriend, a product that only interested me and I had recently discovered, nothing she was ever aware of… and while I was still right next to her, five minutes later, her phone is showing up ads for said product. Her phone, not mine. The product is not Coca-Cola, it’s not something that often pops up.
What other explanation could there be? The coincidence of the year? They are listening.
I’m sure calling it a “dev kit” and not a product “expected to sell many units” whilst having inventories full of the thing and a few failed attempts at pushing sales is how they’re going to try to spin this failure.
I’d entertain your theory, but Facebook is pretty much only kept alive by boomers and Mark’s AI multiverse web 3.0 became a commercial failure, so I don’t think your idea that he understands young people and is just ahead of me holds.
I think Zuckerberg fundamentally misunderstands humans. I don’t even mean the memes of calling him a robot or lizzard or whatever, I truly believe being a billionaire in a tech bubble from a young age severely harmed his notion of his own species to the point of being pathological.
It must certainly help that the average lenght for a JAV is about two to three hours
Brother I’d join you in complaining about this, but let’s be honest, our lower back and knees do not lie
Here’s a fun little curiosity that profoundly annoys me: here in Brazil “cringe” accidentally got the wrong meaning. It was being heavily used online, so a famous TV news program decided to “explain what it means” to the older generation and accidentally explained it as “cringe means everything older generations are or do” so in other words, a lot of brazilians that aren’t used to internet slang believe “cringe” means “somebody over 30” rather than actual cringe.
Quick reminder: anything can be turned into a book, anyone can write one. There’s no regulating body, authority or even peer pressure overlooking the veracity of what’s written.
Your weird uncle can write a self help book based on a random dream he had.
You might have heard a teacher complaining about using Wikipedia as a source… books aren’t different, you need a lot of supplemental research to use a book as a source in order to verify it’s valid as one.

Usually the Redditors wear the fedora without knowing how to pair it correctly with the rest of their outfits, so don’t worry, if you wear a nice attire and a fedora people won’t get you confused with the guy wearing an ahegao t-shirt two sizes too small and cargo shorts.

Cats and kidney disease is a combination that unfortunately is way too common. I’m happy to hear he had a loving caring owner and lived many years, sorry to hear about his passing but I’m sure he had a great life.
I like sharing this little nugget recipe around just because it’s very cheap, and healthy for children, pets and to be fair us adults too, I like nuggets haha.
Nope, that was a massive misinterpretation that DDG clarified many times already.
