Is it really an ad if it's not actually trying to sell something though?

Sorry you had to find out like this. Enjoy the socks.

This is why Arch never stuck for me. I work with Linux all day. I don't want to spend my free time fixing my own shit because a update broke the bootloader.

Enbies.

Ubuntu is for tboys

Arch is for tgirls

Sorry, I don’t make the rules.

Holy mother of false equivalence.

So what’s the alternative then? Just let politicians get away with crimes and elect them anyway? Because that doesn’t seem to be going too well for the US.

People keep saying this and I apologise if this comes across as callous, but this is a very online opinion. I’ve seen no evidence whatsoever that the Palestinian genocide would even move the needle for the average American voter let alone be enough to sway the election. While I’m sure it didn’t help, the Democrats lost because they promised more of the same neoliberalism at home when many Americans desperately wanted a departure from the status quo and because there’s a depressing amount of Americans that are just straight up bigots, not because of their stance on Gaza.

There’s been a ton in the UK outed as predators themselves. It’s projection.

Government so small it can fit inside your office.

I just pretend I can’t speak English.

You are vastly overestimating the technical ability of the average computer user. I don't even mean that in an elitist/disparaging way, they just don’t care about this stuff because they don’t need to.

Interesting take. I personally disagree - I define art as the human experience/emotions being expressed exclusively by humans through various mediums. To me, that human element is what makes art “art” as it were. AI might be able to produce approximations of art and some of it might even look quite nice, but I don’t consider it “art” in the way I define the word.

I feel like the only person who never got viruses from Limewire. Just don't run the file called "slipknot_wait_and_bleed.mp3.exe", it's not rocket science.

This is how I see vinyl as well. I don't buy them for the sound quality, I have a huge library of uncompressed digital files for that. I buy them because they're a nice tactile thing to own that helps support the artists I love. 9 times out of 10 I'm not spinning vinyl when I listen to music, but I will if I want to create a particular experience/vibe in that moment.

As a cyber security engineer, it's because it hates you. It also hates me. The printer knows nothing but rage.

Ex-Roman Catholic here. I was never particularly devout but this is what drove me away from the church once and for all. I have never seen people preach about God’s love with so much hate in their hearts.

Normally platforms are around for a while before enshittification kicks in, I see that Digg are cutting straight to the chase before the site even launches.

I probably will check the new Digg out, but I’ve come to the conclusion that all corporate-run social media platforms will go down the road of fucking over their users in the name of profit eventually. I’m not willing to move to another one and build up connections and communities just for some rich fuck to destroy it on a whim. I’m far more interested in helping to build and grow federated platforms like Lemmy so that there is a true alternative outside of their sphere of influence entirely.
