I think Ubuntu made sense back in the day when Debian wasn’t as user-friendly.

Now that Debian is, it looks like Ubuntu is trying really hard to just be as commercialized as possible.

I still don’t understand the logic behind their paying for updates for certain programs when Debian doesn’t require it.

Our senators are worthless leeches that only exist to argue over problems that will never get solved.

Let’s see them implement policies that actually benefit the average American instead of just their ruling class.

They all wear nice suits.

world order

You mean western dominance?

It should be interesting to see who pays for this when Russia wins.

Pretty sure the US is one of the few nations that never said they wouldn’t use them.

Ukraine can’t win without Western troops.

It’s that simple.

I swear, some of you people are just arguing with yourselves at this point.

It’s like playing leapfrog when nobody else is there.

Ukraine can’t win without Western troops.

It’s that simple.

Culture, which can change.

I agree. It’s great to have machines do the work we don’t want to do so we can do other things with our lives.

We just need to get over this mentality that those who have more deserve more and those who have less deserve less.

So… do nothing about it?

Not really.

Personally, I’ve found AI is wrong about 80% of the time for questions I ask it.

It’s essentially just a search engine with cleverbot. If the problem you’re dealing with is esoteric and therefore not easily searchable, AI won’t fare any better.

I think AI would be a lot more useful if it gave a percentage indicating how confident it is in its answers, too. It’s very useless to have it constantly give wrong information as though it is correct.

“Designers” desperate to stay relevant and make their worthless degrees seem worthwhile.

I actually just use my phone for internet and haven’t had a landline ISP for 2 years now.

Visible, $25/month has saved me so much money and they even sent me a free phone.

Everyone is different.

I personally think copyright and patent laws need to die. If you can’t protect your own secrets, don’t rely on taxpayer resources to do it for you.

White-collar workers were cool with machines and poorer nations taking blue-collar jobs. Now that it threatens them and their money, the hypocrisy is on full display.

Only because it would hurt their bottom line.

Funny how we can only win when it’s corporations fighting each other.

if it ever becomes more popular the same assholes that ruin other online experiences will also wind up here.

That’s kind of the glory of the fediverse, though. We can have communities using the same protocol that never interact with each other.

There can be completely separate fediverses that cater to different people.

I’ve thought about this. Essentially, whenever a channel gets moderately successful they will be contacted by various agencies trying to ‘sponsor’ them.

All the people that make video for fun hardly get seen, and if they do it’s not long before they sell out.
