“but don’t you know it’s just the duopoly behaving as designed; wake up man”. I’ve heard all the arguments.

So just curious, what does the DINUM do exactly?

I swear if she runs I’m writing in Trump for a third term. I swear to god. Please. No. Kamala, go home. You’re drunk.

In this case it’s the entire government top-down. It’s not just a jurisdiction. They have probably weighed the cost benefits of transitioning vs throwing money at Microsoft forever

Yea Ok, but Hassan only cares about clout. That’s it. He found his grift on the left and has capitalized on it. Any attempt to build coalitions, lift up the left or acquire power for the movement is undercut by his need for more clout. He’s not the ally the movement needs, but a peak representation of superficial rhetoric that the left seems to be drawn to these days. The medium is the message or whatever

Man, destiny sure lives rent free in your heads holy shit.

Timmy Cook is just a bean counter. He’s got nothing to innovate or build. That’s Apple has been buying back shares non stop. Their lead designer jumped ship a while ago. It’s only a matter of time.

Autodesk is also locking me into windows 😕

I get the sense there are a lot of accelerationists in this thread. Of course, the accelerationists are never the ones personally impacted by their actions. I wish I had all that privilege to cosplay as a revolutionary

She endorsed Harris…

What is that concept called about society having a collective short term memory?

This comment just reeks of vibes. She’s extremely accomplished and intelligent. She wasn’t the most hilarious or charming person, but again, that’s not what I look for in a leader.

I never understand comments like these. She was elected senator of California. She was an AG. Her list of accomplishments is available on Wikipedia for free. What does a black woman have to do to prove herself in this day?

I’ve only seen this phenomenon on Lemmy where it’s a hard stance all or nothing about every hot topic. Also, I think many here are privileged people. After all, it’s not the Lemmy user’s families being abducted at immigration hearings or whose kids are losing their only meal option because Republicans ended school lunches. So they yap all day about the genocide in Gaza, don’t bother to vote and the cycle repeats. Because in the end, they personally are not affected

Im leaning towards two separate machines as well. I think that’s the route I’ll go in the end

I’ve moved half my toolset to free and open source alternatives. I’ve ditched Adobe which has a monopoly on the entire market. Sadly, there are no alternative BIM/CAD tools that can take on Autodesk (yet).

I was thinking this too. Might get a second desktop and set that up

Haha Ok let me send a memo to the whole global architecture community and ask them to switch to something different

Thanks. I am a freelancer but I depend on the platforms my clients work with.

This comment is so stupid I wouldn’t know where to start to unpack it. This is such a bad take on so many levels it makes Sovereign citizens sound like supreme court justices.
