Quite the photo op.

Knowing r/conservative, Disney was probably talking about hiring someone to play Tina Turner in a biopic, or something like that.

Security theater: All you stuff is encrypted but they have the decryption keys

Proprietary App Store: The apps and the store itself are proprietary and I don't trust Apple.

Gaslighting their customers: Images shared with Android users from iPhone are purposely crushed to a unreviewable quality. The idea is to convince people that Android takes terrible photographs.

This is bullshit.

Until I see an OSI approved license, it's not open source.

I create content that goes into YouTube. I generate a tiny bit of revenue from that. I have no say into how YouTube treats my viewers. If you watch the ads, awesome, I get some money. If not, I'm just glad you watched the video.

The majority of content on the platform is made up of channels my size and smaller. Most of us are getting paid pennies.

But YouTube doesn't care about us. They want to appease the larger studios.

This is a blatant first amendment violation. Another pro-gamer move from the free speech party.

If the documentation is on discord, there is no documentation. Documentation has to be freely available, otherwise it doesn't count.

I've built DCPs (Digital Cinema Package, the format that protectors use) and the DRM part is always so finicky. I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often.

Okay, that's a red flag. Someone check his hard drive.

We need to move AI from the cloud to our own hardware running in our homes. Free, open source, privacy focused hardware. It'll eventually be very affordable.

You've had 3 years to understand how the vaccine works. We're you just not paying attention?

Installing is easy just add:

alias updog="sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y"

to your .bashrc or .zshrc

I think you'll find a lot more leftists interested in platforms that are not powered solely by money and profit. Lemmy, much like Mastodon and other federated platforms, only need instances to run to be usable. It doesn't require millions of dollars to keep it afloat.

Generally speaking centrist and right wingers, especially in Western countries, tend to be very capitalist. They only understand the value in terms of money.

I hope you enjoy this painstaking remaster of one of the best desktop wallpapers of all time. Now it's up to you to configure your theme to match.

Hey, just, uh, wanted to clear the air a bit. You know when you're saying "Linux," what you're probably referring to is what some folks call "GNU plus Linux," if you really want to get into the weeds of it. But don't sweat it, alright? I'm not here to be a buzzkill or anything.

See, what we call "Linux" is actually just a part of the whole thing, man. It's the kernel, the core, the... engine, you could say, of the operating system. But the GNU stuff, that's the body of the car, the seats, the steering wheel. You need both to take a drive, you know?

But look, it's not a big deal. We're all just trying to get from point A to point B, right? So, whether you're saying "Linux" or "GNU plus Linux", it doesn't change the journey. It's just semantics.

Sure, I get it. Richard Stallman and the gang over at the Free Software Foundation, they put in a lot of effort into the GNU software, and I respect that. But sometimes you gotta go with the flow, man. And right now, that flow is "Linux". It's simpler, it's what people know, and frankly, it's the Linux kernel that's making the whole thing work in the first place.

So next time you want to get technical, feel free to drop a "GNU plus Linux". Stallman would probably give you a nod of approval. But if you're just chilling out, hanging back, and you say "Linux"... well, it's all good, man. Linux is just Linux. And there's nothing wrong with that.
