Is it even possible for Linux to get enshitified? Wouldn’t the open source community just go back and fork from before the enshitification began? Surely, enshitified versions could be made but people would simply not use them unless there was some proprietary component they wanted.
Its definitely a cannon.
My guess is that it’s about how many of us are complicit in our horrific criminal justice system. Casual things, like people laughing at the suggestion of prison rape being retribution rather than recoiling in horror at the suggestion.
There was a homeless guy sleeping in the parking area of my apartments and everyone I mentioned it to suggested that I call the cops. I went and asked the guy if he was alright. We said a total of like 10 words but he was just some 30ish year old dude looking for a little temporary shelter. Do you really need to call the cops to fuck his shit up even more?
Big Google and big government want your data. I hope Linux phones get good enough for daily use soon.
This weekend, I gave my girlfriend’s dad a nice computer with Linux mint installed. I put a shortcut to windows 11 setup to run in virtualbox, in case there were things that he felt he needed windows for (to spare him the frustration of needing to tinker too much if he didn’t want to).
Down with Microsoft spyware.
Dude got paid $300k to make chicken noises according to this source. I think that should be enough money for him to keep his arrogance on the shelf.
I assume that the downvotes are from you and I notice that you haven’t shared the information. I think that is a good and appropriate response. Nothing good can come you sharing this information here. Privacy is appropriate and valuable even for people who are doing nothing wrong and who aren’t even particularly interesting.
To really drive in your point, why don’t you post the names and phone numbers of the three people you contact most frequently. Don’t worry, those numbers are already in the phone book. It’s ok, you’re just sharing publicly available information.
You’ve missed the point. The phone numbers are not the valuable information. What’s valuable is the list of each person’s social contacts.
You’ll soon learn that most people will only read the subject line and the first sentence.
Would you mind posting your phone book and a copy of all your text messages here for us all to read? Can we see your photo album, all credit card transactions, amazon purchase history, GPS location data, credit score? We promise only to sell this info to other people, use it to sell you stuff, raise your insurance rates, tell us where to focus our funding for political campaigns. Don’t worry, we’ll only save it forever and you can be assured that we’ll feed this into AI models 10 or 20 years from now, along with everyone else’s data, establishing a massive cache of information from which incredible inferences will be possible. We may or may not use this information to enrich ourselves, increase wealth inequality, influence politics. You should surely not take steps to limit the data being collected about you. Just relax your body. Let it happen.
I wonder if they make your pupils look normal if you take them while you’re tripping balls.
That seems 100% fine to me. If you’re looking for an excuse, by all means upgrade but those numbers seem acceptable.
Unrelated to their question but I think Linux users would be more likely than windows users to opt out, when presented with such a prompt.
Oh no, someone posted something to the internet that I, personally, was already aware of! When will the tyranny end?
Windows 11 is enshitified enough to be annoying and loaded with government and corporate spyware enough to be alarming. Meanwhile, Linux has become user friendly, optimized for everything but the latest hardware and capable of running most games.
I don’t know how the timing of each release is planned but the Firefox website gives instructions for using the repositories for esr, beta, nightly, or dev edition.
Using Debian as your distro doesn’t lock you into firefox ESR.
Its my understanding that KYC is not inherent to crypto but only to exchanges such as kraken or coinbase. Tax regulations necessitate KYC, not the technical requirements of the underlying asset.
I was never a fan of Linus tech tips. He always seemed like a weird guy. I did watch that video where he totally fucked his Linux installation by being really dumb. The package manager warned him that he was about to destroy his system and made him type something like “Yes, I know what I’m doing”. He then reacted like, “why would Linux do this to me!? It’s so hard!”
Either a paid shill or an absolute moron.
