2·10 days agoI feel like people missed the sarcasm a bit here
Not really a language-specific problem, but why should that stop us from this goal?
Gentoo OpenRC gang rise up!
They put on a different hat, but they are still here, shouting ‘they are trying to supress us’. Come back next week for ‘we will hunt you down’.
57·16 days agoThe number one reason not to switch is “I don’t want to”. And I dislike that Windows users keep repeating decades old solved issues as excuses instead of being honest.
‘But muh games’ only very few don’t work OOB or at all.
‘I need this software’ most works flawlessly under Wine.
‘It crashes’ exactly as often as Windows with faulty hardware or bug in a driver.
‘Hardware isn’t plug&play’ more hardware works with Linux without installing drivers.
Jusy say “I dont want to give it a shot” or “I’m in the minority that can’t switch”, but don’t bullshit people about Linux requiring cmd to work. And those people then suggest editing registry to remove ads… It’s dishonest and in bad faith.
FOSS is the only way forward to stop complete enshittification of the digital space, like it or not.
Also I hate Microsoft and Apple with all my soul.
I get that most don’t care, but that doesn’t mean supporting those companies is good.
Thats… what Robinhood doesn’t advertise, and (at least used to) always buys options by default.
So fuck Robinhood.
Where is the app that has only one button ‘Buy ESG’?
Nice story, bro.
I’m also up, more years, not Robinhood.
Then you glance over to Wallstreet Bets, they are the direct opposite on the curve.
Yet still almost everyone loses money on exchanges, for various reasons which I don’t want to spend time writing up.
But market has been irrational for many years, with no signals of slowing down.
90% of users lost money while trading
the end result is very much the same
They will most likely continue, why stop there?
My SO switched to Linux with their latest PC, since they don’t need anything specific. Never even noticed much of a difference. They even play old games on it just fine.
I am in a priviledged position to not accept positions of work which hard-require Windows. I did work for companies with soft-requirements, but it was a corporate with solid Linux community, so they had workarounds for everything.
I’m not saying it’s easy to live the FOSS dream, but if one has the priviledge, they should choose to do so.
As a long time Linux + KeePass user:
FUCK Windows and Microsoft for everything they’ve done to the general public and open-source software with their shit. Yeah yeah they are turning around, but still fuck them.
I have no strong feeling towards Bitwarden, but I will never put my secrets into anything non-FOSS. And I sync it with my Nextcloud.
Stallman was right about software.
I used to, 15 years ago.
Good times.
What? No…
My whole life has been a lie
Help - provide food, housing, education. Stop dehumanizing people. Help them build a peaceful future. Everyone will benefit from that.
But that would require actual good will.
But, surprise, everyone knew all of that 8 fucking years ago.
They knew Trump voters will vote Trump no matter what.
They knew he will spew lies in every direction at record speed.
They knew what has happened to Hillary.
They’ve seen the Biden victory.
And NOTHING was learned at any of this.
I’m not from the US, but I do blame the DNC ever since 2016. And, while I am distraught and sad that Trump will guarantee the death of us all through global catastrophy, he did nothing new this election, from the previous two. And neither did anyone else. Guess what happens when the people get fucked by high prices and no help?
DNC is actively stopping actual leftists, there is no hope for any meaningful progress, just small kisses of good gestures.
Imagine if the leftists had a manifesto like Project 2025. Imagine strong messages like ‘taxes only for the billionaires’, ‘free press from the oligarchy’, ‘no more oil subsidies’, ‘reign in the wall street and blackrock’.
