The default subs are controlled by people involved with karma farming. Some of them are so bad that the mods will ban anyone with a high number of upvotes to prevent them from competing with the bots.

Funny enough, I bet the same mods will let a bot report your pic in a few months.

GOP wants to kill it. Democrats want to privatize it. Both are an enemy of the people.

Congress had to lift a ban on arming Nazis in order to send weapons to Ukraine. Fuck’em.

Given how many “former” spies from the Israeli Unit 8200 are now in high level positions at Facebook, I’d say any Meta app is a concern for Israeli spying.

The Biden admin was trying to privatize it.

Love when western propaganda bots blatantly out themselves like this.

That’s exactly the attitude of most Linux people, and it’s completely out of touch.

You don’t win people over by telling them what’s good for them. You do it by appealing to what they want. It doesn’t matter what you think they should care about.

The aesthetics and the menu access/organization is straight out of the 90s. Hell, many of the customization options require a third-party tool to edit with the gui, or you’re stuck using the cli.

Where Apple products and UI are clearly made by designers, Linux environments are clearly made by techies who consider a gui optional. And what’s worse is all the techies gatekeeping to keep it that way.

Most of them don’t. The vast majority of people interact with their devices using a touchscreen or controller. They don’t want to repair it themselves, and they’ll turn it in for another one as soon as their payment plan is up.

Most people could use tablets/phones and have a superior user experience. PC’s in general, whether running Linux or Windows, are becoming a niche product again.

I disagree. Using a Linux desktop always feels like a trip back in time.

But it’s not just a question of Windows vs Linux anymore. For web browsing and basic apps that the vast majority of people use the internet for, tablets & phones are offering a superior user experience.

This is a big driving force in the decline of desktop computer sales. A desktop or laptop is overkill for what most people need, so it’s become specialty equipment (again). And if you’re going to need a pc for specialized needs, the Windows os is going to cover all of those. Linux probably will cover your needs.

Thanks. I’ll give it a try.

But a Linux machine can only handle most special use cases, while a Windows machine can handle all special use cases. If you’re going to have a machine set up for specialized needs, it might as well be Windows, unless you’re someone running multiple machines.

Yup, and German police are already severely cracking down on dissent of the ruling status quo. Straight up arresting people for criticism of the government as we speak.

Except this time it’s a coordinated crackdown on every western country. This time they used financial means to takeover leadership in every country, before unleashing fascism in all of them at once.

Yup. And Freeland fought calls to investigate how many Nazis are still living in Canada, and fought to continue arms transfers to Nazi groups in Europe.

They’ve tried to erase this part of history, but prior to the breakout of WW2 the ruling class largely supported Hitler. They still do to this day.

They work well enough to get by, but definitely lack the responsiveness and modern feel of Windows rdp. Which makes sense, given the Linux solutions are essentially sending screen caps vs rdp’s protocols.

It feels like using a raspberry pi as your workstation. Technically it can do it, but it’s not a great experience. It feels like when you’re in a video chat app, and someone using screen share gives you keyboard/mouse control.

The end goal of all of that is to sell software. If they can do that without supporting a massive pipeline for selling custom hardware, that makes sense.

None. Abandon nationalism entirely.

I’ve used them all. They all suck.

I used NoMachine for the better part of a year, and I’d agree it’s the best of the options. It still sucks.
