i like how you make this sound like users are the ones at fault for not liking shitty things, how about mozilla tries earning money without making the world worse?


because it’s not true, them being smug is a tiny fraction of what’s wrong with them, and pretending that it’s worth noting is disingenous.



all language learning is just down to exposure and repetition, so just consume as much french media as you can and get some flashcard app to memorize vocabulary.


oh sure it’s great until it confidently hallucinates something completely insane and you have no way of realizing it’s gone off the rails

for this reason translations are probably the last thing generative AI should be used for, at least when it’s done in a language you speak you can double check it.


but also proof of stake is just taking off the mask and outright saying that rich people control the network


mfers just open their zipper and start pissing, being dumbfounded at how this results in them pissing their pants


i love that bluesky just keeps getting away with it like this
“oh well they said people can run their own instances, so that must be true!”
nope, you just can’t run a bluesky instance, can we please recognize this fact and stop giving the massive corporation the benefit of the doubt?


android with lineage on it, and configure things to limit what they can do with it.

you can get pretty close to the best of both worlds, letting them have navigation tools and whatnot while also simply not having the google play store available on the phone at all, and exposing them to a very minimal amount of data harvesting from the tech companies.


can you define “left-leaning bias”? because many people say that and actually mean “doesn’t arbitrarily go ‘both sides!’ every time an issue is brought up”

it’s not “left-leaning bias” to recognize the state of the world and the solutions to it, that’s just being sane and not-evil.


you’ve left out the most important part: the CEO can make decisions that harm the company but benefit the other higher-ups (e.g. signing a moronic contract with a subcontractor owned by them), and then when they’ve done that enough that they can’t justify keeping them as CEO any longer they can kick them off with a massive golden parachute that gets portioned out to the same higher-ups, then they can repeat the whole thing to keep sucking the corporation dry like a disgusting mosquito.


i have never understood this complaining about subscriptions, it has always worked absolutely fine for me

i subscribe to a channel and their videos show up on the subscriptions page, that’s it, it works?


like with many jobs you’re learning to only do the work that matters, and oftentimes when you can avoid doing work that actually improves the product.

There’s a reason why construction workers aren’t making their own planks and nails, that would be horribly time consuming, inefficient, and they’d probably make shitty planks.


you can make a humidifier with a bowl of water with a towel in it, for faster humidification add more bowls and towels.


God yes, using changing genres to tell a story in your music is such a power move


new tesla model least likely to spontaneously catch fire and explode to date, say sources


accessibility shouldn’t prevent improvements, we can just add the foot handles and handicapped people simply keep operating doors like they currently do.

They’ll still be exposed to fewer germs so they benefit anyways.


House paint can use slag from mines, making it a rest product and thus very cheap.

Cars use much fancier stuff.
