Hello thanks for visiting my profile.

  • Donald Trump's name in Jeffrey Epstein files redacted by FBI: report

    Jump

  • Trump loves making everything about himself, so I'll do him a favour: assume every redacted name is Trump.

  • (Edited title, see details for original) Here's why you're getting enshittified...

    Jump

  • Well, I guess the prerogative is on the rest of us non-Americans to break unjust American IP laws to counteract the lack of enforcement of anti-trust laws, or make laws in other countries that better enforce competition laws on American companies.

    I have a glimmer of hope that Europe is getting in gear somewhat for that.

    I do like Cory's overall point about needing to think more of solidarity than individual choices, but I disagree on discounting them completely, those choices do carry a certain degree of importance as well in effecting systemic change. Saying, "well, society isn't changing, enshittification isn't going anywhere so I shouldn't bother changing my habits" won't get us anywhere. It has had real effects.

    Things that start in the margins have the ability to get noticed by big players and then bring about change. A couple examples: Linux gaming is in a viable state that was unimaginable 8 years ago. The Canadian boycott of US products and travel has had a very measurable affect on US tourism and select industries, and has spread to other countries. Valve nor the Canadian government started either of those efforts, but they helped signal-boost and take concrete supportive actions when they see that even a small group of people independently have supported that change already.

  • Literally nobody surely?

  • In highschool, my classmates and I would hang out at the nearby McDonald's often enough we gave it an informal course code.

    There are plenty of cafes now but it's too expensive now for me to hang out at them more than a couple times a month.

  • You know what: Microsoft became miserably incompetent in IT

    Jump

  • This is what happens when companies become too big to care about their users and customers. Can't log in? Your problem, not mine.

  • Senate Confirms Trump's Most Alarming Nominee To A Lifetime Federal Judgeship

    Jump

  • I knew this was coming eventually. I'm shocked, but I can't really be surprised by Republicans' fecklessness at this point.

  • Trump in rage mode as Epstein storm refuses to die down

    Jump

  • I mean I'm glad that something is sticking in the news cycle...

    Trump and the Republicans are ruining the economy while also exploding the deficit, kidnapping random people and smuggling them to random third countries. He's preparing to silence dissent toward him in the media, on the street. He's also set up and filling inhumane concentration camps. He's done very little this month to end wars as he promised he'd do in a day, and really just inflamed tensions with Iran with a unilateral strike.

  • This Tiny Radio Lets Me Send Texts Without Wi-Fi or Cell Service

    Jump

  • It is channel-based, using Pre-Shared Keys (PSK).

    There is a public line where you can message pretty much everyone with the blank PSK.

  • This Tiny Radio Lets Me Send Texts Without Wi-Fi or Cell Service

    Jump

  • how many people came to this platform due to leaving / being banned from Reddit?

    Jump

  • I'll be honest I came to the platform before the whole API-pocolypse because Reddit was down for about half a day, and I was getting tired of Reddit's BS. But ultimately the API-pocolypse made me swear never to post to Reddit again and cut it cold turkey, more or less.

  • Trump Cognitively Declines In Front Of The World During Meet With NATO Leader

    Jump

  • Not gonna watch this but can Mark please take "Daddy" to the seniors' home already, and keep him there?

  • Trump Insults ‘Evil’ Reporter Who Dares to Ask About Floods

    Jump

  • Good reporters only talk about how Trump is such a gweat wittle pwesident.

  • Tesseract has been discontinued

    Jump

  • Even if I would agree with your principles, this kind of comment is what is tiring for moderators to deal with at scale.

  • Danish Ministry switching from Microsoft Office/365 to LibreOffice

    Jump

  • Sure. That is assuming that someone is available on the LibreOffice side to support the ministry for a particular amount, and that the policy related to government procedures can be followed under this agreement.

  • Danish Ministry switching from Microsoft Office/365 to LibreOffice

    Jump

  • They could spend 1~2% of the cost of their microsoft licenses to create their own plugins/development to make the UI more usable for their applications and workers, rather than relying on Microsoft themselves or creating plugins on outdated and proprietary frameworks.

  • Ted Cruz ensured Trump spending bill slashed weather forecasting funding | Senator on vacation abroad while Texas was hit by deadly floods, a disaster worsened by forecasting cuts, critics say

    Jump

  • Senator Rafael 'Cancún' Cruz running away from his constituents during weather crises? Well, I never!

  • 'Just in': Elon Musk officially launches new political party

    Jump

  • I'm smelling Musk's typical brand of vaporware.

  • Democratic lawmakers denied entry to Alligator Alcatraz immigration detention site

    Jump

  • Deportation macht Frei

  • Hegseth halted weapons for Ukraine despite military analysis that the aid wouldn’t jeopardize U.S. readiness

    Jump

  • Effectively hand-me-downs the military has no active use for.

  • Sanders Says Every Republican Who Backed Trump-GOP Budget 'Must Pay a Price at the Ballot Box'

    Jump

  • That conversation has to happen now as well. But the points I raised are related to despair of the Reconciliation bill passing and those climate setbacks.

    Democrats' window of opportunity to change ahead of midterms is NOW until the primaries. (I've said my spiel about it before in this thread)
