I mean, that hardly can count as gay (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)

I grew such hatred for this man in the past years I wish he would just ruin himself and not hear a delusional thing from him ever again.

I agree. Of all the social media platforms I’ve used, Linkedin is the closest to an insane asylum I could get.

I’ll be more than happy for more people to migrate to linux (or mac, but many people just can’t afford it) so MS doesn’t have such a monopoly on the OS space.

And some will probably give Linux a try. I only stopped pirating Windows because it got free, but I have no intention to pay a subscription to be able to use my fucking PC.

Increasing the echo chambers of conspiracy theorists, extremist and with that influencing things like elections seems quite the impact to me. All these mega corporations could’ve tried to limit these things, but probably that would’ve looked bad on their balance sheets.

Add to this the insane amount of data harvesting they do on their users and in general just making every damn platform worse from year to year while only looking for ever more profits.

Increasing “value” for shareholders in spite of user experience should be a reason to be sent to the guillotine.

In al seriousness now, being profitable is ok, but these companies try to be ever more profitable while not giving a flying fuck about the impact they have.

If only US would have sane laws too…

I’m not sure how the language setting works when replying but afaik just leave it on english and everything should be fine. I’m sure there are tools for windows to automagically detect text in photos, maybe even Google has something to offer.

Not sure how you do this, but one way to speedup things is for example using something like iOS’ scan text from image feature. Of course, it needs some additional formatting but at least you don’t have to type all of the text.

Afaik Edge is available on Linux too. Haven’t tried it there yet as I am on the edge (hehe) about switching from Windows to Linux as daily driver.

On the flipside, atm Edge seems to be the better Chromium choice (if you don’t have a Microsoft hate boner).

Maybe it’s a bug, but I don’t see any downvotes on my side (from kBin). Didn’t thought it was needed to specify that indeed, you should only use assets that are listed as free.

Python with PyGame can be quite a good start. And if you’re just trying to build something for fun maybe use free assets from the internet.

I beg to differ, protests matter. At least here (Romania) they made those in power revert some bad legislation after seeing massive protests. Don’t mean to insult or anything, but this apathic approach towards civil society is a big factor in eroding democracy.
Again, if enough people think a certain narrative then it will affect the events.
You can both have a decent awareness of things around you and enjoy life to its fullest in my opinion.

Absolutely agree with your approach. Also not being aware about news at all might make those in power get away with passing nocive legislation without much resistance from the population.

I think Kbin replies are broken because I had to go to your profile to see your reply to me.
Anyways, I don’t think being reasonable up to date with whatever happens in your country or in the world means “worrying about things that will materialize decades from now or are going on thousands of miles away”.
For example, not watching news at all (I usually never use the TV nowadays) might make me miss some bad legislation that was/will be passed. I might miss protests against such things. Or I might be more prone to believing fake news about a certain topic (war in Ukraine for example).
But I completely agree one should not be 24/7 worrying about news.

I’d argue that one should not stop reading the news forever because you’ll just become increasingly disconnected from what happens around you. As with all things, reading news in moderation and not doomscrolling is the way I think.

It’s also harder to harmonize a thing such as EU with a lot more heterogenous states than the US. It’s still better to move slowly than to not move at all.
