Way to miss the point
It's almost like they are intentionally trying to get in trouble.
Can anybody post some pictures?

I can't exactly make out what it says after the error code thanks to the mystery unicode characters but I will try my best.
"The package couldn't pass the updating, or verification."
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

Les Misérables is easily the best book I've ever read in my entire life. A few years ago I read a shorthened version of it and even then I was fascinated by it. I finished reading the full text two months ago and oh my fucking god this book is the best thing ever written.
I'm Turkish so I read the Turkish translation (will read the full text in English and French when I learn it) and on the back of it, it says something along these lines:
"... Les Misérables is the third and the most majestic collumn of the author's novel trilogy that tells of the society..."
And I completely agree with that. This book is simply timeless. The characters, situations, unjustice, inequalities, all the suffering in it could be applied to any society. This book is real.
The messages that it sends are solutions to topics that seemingly anybody with a functioning brain should be capable of thinking and realizing. And yet, these solutions are ignored and refused because of greed, revenge, bloodlust and most important of all, ignorance.
The main character of the book, Jean Valjean is the embodiment of redemption. His entire arc teaches us how to treat criminals. Some countries today are taking these lessons and applying them. The lessons being; treat them as human, rehabilitate them. The result? They actually do heal and return to society as normal human beings.
And yet you see people against this practice. Those kinds of people are blinded by bloodlust and revenge. They are the same kind of people that were racist, sexist and much more back in the day. The arguments that these people bring don't hold up either. The most common one I see (at least from my perspective) is this:
"You wouldn't react this way if they hurt one of your loved ones!"
The fact that these people don't know anything about me aside, this argument is pointless as it implies that I would be blind to fact and logic when I'm in pain. And while that is true, me being angry over an apple falling onto my head won't make gravity any less real. In other words, so what?
The biggest victims of this mentality are pedofiles. Not the ones that do engage in action. But rather the ones that don't harm anybody are aware of their issue. For instance, if a non-engaging pedo went to a therapist and told them of their issue, what would the therapist do? Call the police of course. And what would that do? Their life would be pretty screwed from that point forward. Assuming they are the non-engaging type, of course. I don't believe this to be the correct attitude towards these kind of cases.
I would also like to dive into other topics that the book covers (and perhaps extend on this one) but it would be way too long for a comment. Thank you anyone reading this far. I would like to hear your opinions on the matter and discuss even!
I can't speak for the privacy scene but in my country it's pretty popular merely because of anonimity (which boils down to not having to use a phone number) and Discord-like server/groups. For porn and other NSFW content, it is pretty popular.
If a person carries their trash with them until they stumble upon a trash bin they instantly have a plus in my book.
I really enjoy getting the most out of a computer/mobile device that I have. I love trying out different OSes, messing with a video game to squeeze as much as performance possible etc.
Alright so what's the biggest threat that the Open Web is facing right now? Web Enviroment Integrity.
What's the biggest browser engine that's not Chromium? Gecko. (Firefox)
Which group of people use Chrome most? Average Joes.
What attracts Average Joes? Shiny new features.
What is this post about? Shiny new features.
I think this is a perfect opportunity to make people switch to Firefox.
Though an antitrust lawsuit would probably be quicker.
I'm honestly really happy that Elon Musk bought Twitter and basically destroyed it. If it weren't for him, open protocols such as ActivityPub wouldn't be on news. I wish I could say the same for Reddit though. The amount of information it holds is simply too much to ignore. During the blackout, it was hard to find answers to my tech related questions as all subreddits were private. Hopefully tech community will move on to Lemmy.

I recommend reading about Daisuke Amaya (a.k.a Studio Pixel) and his creation, Cave Story.
He made the game in the course of five years and moved to a less intensive and low pay job to work on the game. The man made the art, soundtrack, the program he used to compose and render the said soundtrack and the fucking game engine. He's also called "The father of indie games"
