People know what they are getting into when they but this products. Still, they make the surprised Pikachu face when they charge them 1000 for a simple repair.

I understand this is a matter of legislation, but we also need to hold consumers responsible for their stupidity. This isn't a secret, this isn't hidden, everyone knows that Apple Apples.

And then I'd have to time travel to fuck Hitler's dad's mom. I didn't make the rules, I just enjoy them.

Wait until I bring my baseball bat to the rally.

Because they are going to create a coin linked with crypto, which is going to give money to people for using Reddit. I like that to be honest. The problem is that Reddit has never figured out how to tell if someone is a bot or not. If bots were bad before, they'll totally dominate Reddit now. So Reddit will probably release a way to verify you're human, which ties you to your identity, or to captcha the hell out of posting.

Anyways, for people thinking Reddit doesn't already know who you are, I invite you to read about online fingerprinting. It's almost impossible not to giveaway your identity nowadays. You'd have to follow guidelines that would make browsing pretty awful.

Hell yeha, as long as you're not harming anyone, just do whatever the hell you want without thinking twice.

Ain't nobody got time for that 🎶

In C# it is different.

In C if I give you a pointer to a memory address, you can totally overwrite what is in that memory address, even write a new struct in there. So you're getting a "real" writable memory address. You could even write a different type of structs and break the program. You could tweak specific bytes.

In languages like Java or C# you aren't given a reference to the memory address but a reference to the object. You can only write to the object using it's own interface (methods) but you can't say "I'm going to totally overwrite this memory address with a new object".

If you receive an object in a parameter, let's say a "Person person" object and you do something like "person = new Person();" you didn't really overwrite the memory address. The original person reference that was passed in the parameter is still intact. You can only modify it with something like "person.setName(...)".

So, with real pointers you can do more stuff, but higher level languages don't want you to do that because it breaks some of their principles for what "good programming" is. In this case they are protecting encapsulation. You shouldn't be able to mess around with the memory contents of objects directly, only through their interfaces. Encapsulation is safer because objects should expose how to operate them safely via their interfaces.

I have installed Firefox in my machine and the difference is around 3 seconds.

For me, how my system feels is pretty important. If something isn't snappy, my stress levels start to rise. So those 3 seconds do make a difference. Some people might not care at all, which is understandable.

If you don't care, use it, enjoy it. You're free to pick what matches your priorities and preferences.

It's strange how seeing a man in a skirt or kilt feels so off. Like, my brain just fires an alert for some reason. It's just a freaking piece of cloth, wtf.

We are so brainwashed.

Isn't Twitter's free speech kinda the same as Fediverse or Reddit's free speech? Pretty sure if someone says something homophobic or transphobic in here, they'll get kicked out (which, for me, is good. Keep reading). It's free speech for the people that align with the admin ideals. I see nothing wrong with it besides the echo chamber effect, but at least people can create spaces where they feel safe.

Someone could argue "but Lemmy also has right wing instances". Then just imagine Twitter is a right wing instance of Mastodon that has been defederated. And that's what the free market is about. The free market is a fediverse and a company is an instance, you can create an instance and put whatever rules you want in it. It's up to everyone else if they want to use it or federate with it. Twitter just "defederated" Threads. How is that different from a Lemmy instance defederating other instances?

Is it against free speech when Lemmy admins kick right-wing people or defederated right-wing instances? I think it is against free speech, but I don't think everyone needs to allow free speech in their home. Go ahead and kick out the people you consider offensive. I believe Lemmy and private companies should have the right to do this.

I do agree, it's his company. He can create his own rules. I don't agree with his rules, so I don't use the service.

And for reason poop was like "Get me the fuck out of this body right nooowww!!!" after you read something.
