Flatpak is great for installing, but as a happy Aurora user, it’s annoying and it breaks things all the time. Every desktop app i use has some broken feature. Sandboxes as another permissions panel suck. Simple browser-like permissions that

Yeah dude. If he spent more time complaining on forums instead of lobbying against regulation meant to protect children from his own abusive platform, the world would be better. Take your puritan work ethic and shove it.

It sucks how much of the world is built by people who glorify putting in 6 days and 4 nights a week, then put that effort towards stuff like Facebook. It’s so uncool to be critical thinking at all with these types. Accept the mission statem

Aurora OS and Bazzite. Flathub crap happens, but I’ve never had so much confidence in my Linux machine. It has the windows or Mac quality that i can trust it to boot into a real desktop environment after any update. No more booting to a bro

Jcenters, whoever you are, kill this awful website. It reflows the width on scroll, the top bar occupies 1/5 of my phone, nobody wants whatever the fucking AI expanded blog slop you are selling. This isn’t clever, it’s just annoying.

I’m tired of people acting so naive past the point of zip-tying entire apartment buildings and building concentration camps. White supremacist manners and politeness are disgusting.

All of society is heading towards an incredibly unpopular future. Nobody wants this. Tech was a mistake. I wish them all failure and shame. Feel bad and quit

Nah, they are adults. Labor should make way more decisions, but they knew what they were doing and for who.

I usually feel bad for laid off engineers, but these guys profited off of pump and dump wealth-funneling to the rich. Sucks to suck. They all played a part in normalizing scams.

Our system is designed so there is always a politician who folds for big business. The rest all hem and haw until it’s their turn to take the fall. They spread out the evil, we vote for lesser evils, and we all condemn extremism. Democracy.

The only thing any of that has to do with the US is that the US backed that theocracy! We cannot unilaterally violate all international law and sovereignty without Congress and our allies… that’s obvious though so what are you talking about

Is it so hard to project out a couple product cycles? Computers get better. We’ve gone from $50k workstation to commodity hardware before several times

We know what the law is… the law is bullshit. Is it easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism?

Agreed. Publishers need to be knocked off this absurd moral high ground. If merely being rich is enough for me to profit off of Miles Davis songs for decades after his death, copyright is just another wealth redistribution to the rich. Stea

Emergency notifications are done the same way! Its communism to fucking build it, so let’s have a team of a few engineers make an API to control government infrastructure from incompetent contractors on AWS, offer no real means of testing,

Animal testing, weapons testing, medical trials, cloning, psychological experiments… had you just never considered them before? Why this?

Wow, it’s almost like having health insurance tied to employers creates a giant obstacle to pursuing less exploitative opportunities.

Mcafee for iPhone has 5 stars. iBeer has 5 stars. Every app in a search of “DMV” has five stars. Every “gpt” ai clone app has 5 stars.

Poor people don’t have control of their situation. You are literally victim blaming and surprised that rubs people the wrong way. Victim blaming is rude, offering your flippant two cents is rude. There, your ideas are challenged, rather tha

You should feel embarrassed for “thinking” so callously and uncritically. Do you need everything handed to you? Family issues, natural disasters, medical events, house fires, abuse, wage theft, fate. I’ve worked with the destitute, there is

So what is your thesis? The tools keep getting better, so that’s some kind of gotcha that the emporer has no clothes? Some people prefer the absolute latest and greatest so people on the previous gen were all fakers making Pelican svgs? May

I used bun for the first time last week. It was awesome! The built-in server and SQLite meant i didn’t need any dependencies besides bun itself, which is certainly my favorite way to develop. I do almost all of my development in vanilla js
