installing apps instead of sIdEloADing please

Gotta go home and crack a few linuxes

What the fuck is wrong with just saying email? It's been around for decades.

If someone said to me "Could you crack a Linux" I would walk away slowly and avoid eye contact.

Picking another corporation to base your language around isn't better. Why not refer to the general privacy concepts that corporation claims to have?

Proton advertisement.

hehe, yikes

between Proton moving operations and its CEO being a MAGA (or at least a Trump sycophant), the advice to adopt Proton has really curdled recently

Proton Meet? lol

It would be safer if we discussed.this using encryption:

OK?

Instead, lets simplify: Search, Message, Email, Video Call... wtf is the last one

This is a joke... right? Right?

Had me going until "Could you crack a Linux?"

This reeks of adults trying to explain to other adults about 'internet speak' and should have stayed in whichever marketing fools addled brain it came from

What the fuck is this?

but if enough people use google as a general verb, the word will stop being owned by alphabet (from my understanding)

Would be better if this had serious suggestions. But to add a serious one, please say something like "content blocker" instead of "adblocker"; you're not freeloading by blocking ads, you're choosing to not connect to unwanted privacy-hostile content with your computer and internet connection, as you should.

Its been so hard to stop saying google it but im getting there, they really got us good with their branding brain worm

Do people not know how to say "this is my email address" anymore?

The linux is already open

Yeah, language doesn't work like that.

Instead of: "Android."

Say: "An open source Android (AOSP)-based operating system such as LineageOS for microG or other similar FOSS projects that fully circumvent Google Play Services."

You know, like a normal person.

as som have mentioned. I call email, email. And I call video conferencing video conferencing and would say hop on a conference call or just call. I mean many people dial in. Video is just standard now but they used to be done with just phones. I usually say the message app used as at a workplace its whatever they use. Open some windows is talking about gui windows not ms windows. I don't get the alternative thing at all. Its like that thing with ms not being able to trademark windows because windows is a common word. you say windows don't let ms own that trump. I do say google sometimes for search and that is bad but I often say search or look it up. I just need to stop saying google sometimes.

I just say "I did a search" instead of "I googled it" nowadays, mostly because I don't like lying.

egg break when put all in one basket.
