Crypto is past the hype cycle and into the actually useful phase of that phony graph.

It’s all too common when anti-crypto people don’t understand crypto101.

For the crontab I think maybe: “apt-get update && apt-get upgrade --assume-yes”

But what about flatpaks?

Are people writing “she” instead of “they” misogynistic and transphobic too?

There’s no such thing as “reverse racism”, “misandry”, etc. That’s not how systemic oppression works.

This comment really hit me where it hurts.

TBH the problem is the PDF format. It was created as proprietary trash. It’s just more adobe software so ofc it doesn’t support linux.

How are communism and fascism the same? What definitions are you using?

AFAIK communism advocates for a stateless, classless, moneyless society, while fascism advocates for imperial nationalism and the violent class hierarchies of capitalism, racism, misogyny, xenophobia, etc.

They seem much more like opposites under the standard definitions. I don’t understand doublespeak.

One of the best things about ditching Ubuntu for Debian was losing worthless snaps and gaining UI support for flatpaks.

2 more weeks to install any other distro!

How much energy does Windows waste on serving ads and other useless nonsense? What’s does the glut-o-meter say?

After like 15 years of ubuntu, I got so sick of their bulllshit that I switched to Debian a few months ago. It’s endlessly better.

I still have ubuntu on a raspberry pi(hole). Whenever I login to update, I get this message about “premium updates” or whatever they call it. It makes me want to barf but I haven’t motivated to switch the pi yet.

Yeah agreed 1000%.

I’ve installed Gnome for people in my fam. It’s kind of absurd when they want to change the text size and we have to get into installing Gnome Tweaks, installing browser extension, installing the Gnome extension, configuring the extension.

I just use Plasma now.

On device Foss models to help you with various tasks.

Thankfully I really really don’t need an “AI” to use my desktop. I don’t want that kind of BS bloat either. But go ahead and install whatever you want on your machine.

local models would be at the core of FOSS AI, and they dont require you to trust anyone with your data.

Would? You’re slipping between imaginary and apparently declarative statements. Very typical of “AI” hype.

Gnome and other desktops need to start working on integrating FOSS AI models so that we don’t become obsolete.

lol no thanks.

I use Kdenlive for video editing. It’s been awesome for my purposes.

Garageband. Sadly it’s my favorite DAW. I’ve tried many alternatives.

Can confirm. I recently ditched Ubuntu after more than a decade of increasing bloat, bugs, snaps, etc. Debian has been a breath of fresh air.

The MSM tries to act like the voice of reason when they’re the biggest purveyors of disinfo by a wide margin.

There’s no free speech under capitalism.
