Just your typical internet guy with questionable humor

  • Have you heard about Blue Screen syndrome?

  • For a while, Linux Mint was significantly less stable than Windows 10 on my previous laptop. Worse, sometimes the system crash would freeze *everything, where it wouldn't even let me do the CTRL ALT F1 to get a basic shell, so the only solution was a full power off/on

  • Officially, "its too hard". Realistically, they don't do shit because those shits bring in money by paying for exposition

  • Would you rather?

  • Possibly by people who were pooping with friends

  • What's a technology that was cooler in its older iterations?

    Jump

  • Ships' sails. I mean, I know some small vessels still use them, but look at any paintings from 1500s-1800s and tell me those huge white pieces of cloth don't look cool.

  • Locked up for removing the M and changing the order of the letters to cover up the crime

  • Baidu CEO warns AI is just an inevitable bubble — 99% of AI companies are at risk of failing when the bubble bursts

  • Looks like lava. Judging from the word and possible translation mistakes, I'm guessing the original pic was in spanish or portuguese (lavar is the verb for washing, so "lava" by itself could be (he/she) washes)

  • The last part I think happens because the people who are there are most likely the ones that dislike very short content, which is what Mastodon offers by default (I know it depends on instance, some allow 1k or 5k character toots), but it's a disorganized mess. It's a kind of service/software for fast communication that can be done better in a specific Discord server. The "good stuff" will always end up posted elsewhere, like personal blogs or websites, where it's better organized (most of the time)

    One thing that keeps people on xitter is the "it's where I get the news". Major news outlets aren't on Mastodon and likely won't be. There's also the stuff that "you get to know before it becomes news", which also won't be on Mastodon because it lacks the "gossipers" and the mass of users that is needed for having people "everywhere"

  • Threads stood as much chance as Google Plus had against Facebook.

    Zuckerfucker using a somewhat similar strategy to artificially boost Threads membership (login with instagram once, you can't delete your threads account without also deleting the instagram one) speaks volumes.

  • Submissive housewife is just property in the eye of the husband. "My property, I do whatever I want with it", which also sounds eerily like slave ownership. It's dehumanizing and women might often not be aware of that.

  • I prefer it as a "lol, as if" hubris from someone that read "The wreck of the Titan, or: Futility"

  • What is your favourite/ most used FOSS android apps?

    Jump

  • Freebloks and Unciv for when I'm bored

    TrackerControl for keeping my phone mostly ad and tracker free

    Auxio for music, but I'm considering an alternative, I can't make it ignore certain folders so a lot of received Whatsapp audio shows up on the playlist

  • Passwords have problems, but passkeys have more

  • I find phones the least secure devices simply because of how likely they are to be damaged or stolen

  • Probably, but the real problem has been database dumps for a good number of years now. Maybe this thing fixes that?

  • This is a thought experiment "Ball on a Table" for detecting whether someone has Aphantasia. What do you see when you perform this experiment?

    Jump
    • What color was the ball? - Red
    • What gender was the person that pushed the ball? - Male
    • What did they look like? - I only imagined seeing the person up to the waist, approaching the table and giving a push to the ball. I pictured him with social attire.
    • What size is the ball? - Tennis ball, but very smooth. It was smack dab in the middle of the table, too.
    • What about the table, what shape was it? What is it made of? - Round glass.

    A question for those of you who have, or suspect you have aphantasia, how are your dreams like? Can you imagine and "hear" sounds?

  • That same problem can be seen in law and it's a lot more relevant to the average citizen than academic papers, since "know your rights" means jack shit if you have no fucking clue what the words mean.

    It's snobbish gatekeeping to feel superior to the filthy plebs
