  • My 40+yo coworker who is probably more manly than you (don't feel bad, me too lol she's a beast) loves cute shit and bows, has stuffed animals on her desk, wore pigtails (I think, dual braids anyway) the other week, and meanwhile is better with tools and shit than most guys I know. You tell her bows infantilize her you might find yourself in a fight lol. Maybe we should just let people like what they like and not try and go all Freud on everyone.

  • The issue with Linux is it's not really needed for the average user

    You say that now but just wait until microsoft finally pisses you off enough that...

    and sort of a pain in the ass to learn how to do basic tasks

    It'll be worth it to learn a new ecosystem just to escape their hell. Btw had you started on linux, or if you switched to mac, or from android to iPhone or vice versa, you'd still have to learn the new ecosystem, the difficulty isn't actually "linux hard" because it is no longer 2004, the difficulty is "learning different thing harder than not." Fortunately for me Microsoft kept changing so much and making me relearn how to do things so often I figured out that I might as well switch if I'm already relearning.

    Using Linux just for bragging rights when you can do the same thing easier on another OS is just lame in my opinion

    I'd agree with that. However learning linux for control of your own device, privacy, freedom, and QOL improvements because the other OS has enshittified itself so hard it's barely recognizable? That's just smart. Using the shit OS and going "pwease daddy micwosoft stop putting sand in my eye" is lame, in my opinion.

    I may change over one day but I would have to start using computers in my personal time more or it would be if I needed to change over for work. I work in IT. It's not my passion, it's a job. The last thing I want to do is hop on my computer in my free time.

    Fair enough honestly lol. Hell most people these days only use their smartphones. But for those who do use computers at home and also complain about windows, there's one and a half exits, either spend the money to get into the other spyware ecosystem but apple gets your data and controls your device, or get the one that is free and you control yourself. For me the choice is clear.

    I'm in no way shitting in Linux or their users,

    I'm definitely shitting on windows lol, but their users I understand, frog boiling and such.

  • Bruh if you can use this magic you speak of to upload this video to archive or something you'll have my undying gratitude, even more so if you release a way to bypass the age gate to the general public. Grayjay, Newpipe, and YTDL all say "gotta sign in bc age" so I can't download it myself. I know it's the dumbest video anyone has ever seen but I love it so much, I haven't seen it in years but I still know every word.

  • Tshirt sold separately, you can recommend all the social media posts you want, and yeah go for it nobody will stop you from renting adspace.

    "Why do linux people talk about it all the time" well why do microsoft people talk about it all the time? Only difference is they're complaining and we're telling them how much better they could have it if they put a modicum of effort to improve their own lives instead of just begging those exploiting them to stop since that has not been working well so far.

  • Who keeps a default wallpaper? Change that shit, I still steal mine from /wg/ and edit it in GIMP like the good old days. Besides, an AI wallpaper is just slightly different than AI spyware taking your PC's resources to tattle back to the mothership lmao.

    But also which distro?

  • Depends on where, they're legal in most countries despite their rep. Apparently the UK hates them though. They're legal in Canada again however.

  • Lol ngl, until the allegations come out, I like him.

  • It does, in this case you can choose not to get the tumor at all.

  • Well of course the internet can make it easier and more pervasive just like it does with all other forms of communication both good and bad, but that's just a function of it being easier to communicate. Microphones make it easier than shouting, too, y'know? Just still limited to audible range.

    Edit: And just to be clear (I think it is but just in case) I'm not saying that it's good of course! I've been calling it out the whole time even before the internet worsened it, I'm old af lol.

  • "Duh"

    • Anyone who has been paying attention for the last 50yr.

    They were doing this before the internet existed, "the feed" didn't invent publicity stunts.

  • If we hate LLMs hard enough and they train on that data, can we make them suicidal?

  • Tbf it often gets things wrong and has hallucinations already, and while that is still there in traditional searches AI removes it from it's context and puts it right at the top of the results, where it insinuates that it is the most accurate results.

    This highlights the issue quite well imo, it's easier for a human to understand satire or nuance or context or when to take X with a grain of salt depending on the source and other context clues than it is for a lowly machine to do the same, and when the machine fails at the distinction and pushes false things as truth devoid of (or even with slightly obfuscated) context and by the way it does it while it pretends to be human itself, it makes it easier for the human to just accept it as fact. Should they? Of course not, but currently it seems to be an issue and whether you hate AI or love AI bringing attention to this issue (in a hilarious way no less) can only be a good thing.

  • I'm just a fellow reader here but if I had to hazard a guess it was either autocorrect from NSA to NASA, or my preferred option "it's much funnier to say NASA because it's silly."

  • Nope fuck you, no renting, not even dorms (renting from the college is still renting), you must drop $150,000 on a townhouse while spending whatever college tuition is right now. What you can't afford it? Well fuck you for paying into the system perpetuating landlordism rentoid, should have lived in a tent on the street if you don't want to be judged by some terminally online twits!

  • You said Paul Drake?

    Oh nvm..

  • This isn't news, it has been known in the north east for years, they've been saying this lol.

  • That's not the important part, the important part is you now must figure out which Linux distro you'll be installing. I recommend Mint or FedoraKDE.

  • Well unless they want to add verified APKs of all the apps I do use to their app store, their frowning is useless because every graphene user basically needs f-droid as it stands now.

  • "Hey Fallow, it's 25:17." I retorted as I read the transcript.
