  • You mean, people who operate a platform where people's privacy constantly gets violated should have a right to their own privacy?

    I dunno. I understand your point, but @Telorand@reddthat.com is also kind of right.

  • Cold cigarettes and stale beer.

  • Seriously, like this could happen to anybody now. This has set a precedent and unless the republicans actually finally put their foot down against this, anyone that's "unwanted" can be stripped of their citizenship and deported. It's insane.

  • Can't he get impeached for this?

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA same!!!

  • What's "vintage" for you?

  • I experienced it back in the early 2000s before Yum. I used CentOS recently and it really isn't as bad as it used to be.

    I don't know how people find themselves in dependency hell nowadays. It takes an effort to break things.

  • Isn't that like NixOS?

  • Oh that's interesting, I didn't know it had events,

  • Yeah, same. I tried getting people to switch, but it was like pulling teeth. It's even worse now, even with all the Meta Zuckerberg Trump bullshit and the obvious privacy problems.

    The circles feature was awesome. Could post stuff for specific groups of people. Sometimes your posts aren't for all your friends to see.

    At first Diaspora seemed to propose a good alternative to Facebook ang G+. It has "aspects" which work similarly to circles. And the interface is similar to Facebook's. However, it didn't take off as much as anyone would've expected.

    Now there's also Friendica which closely resembles Facebook, but it appears limited in functionality. It looks more like a Facebook-UI to the fediverse, like Mastodon is a Twitter-UI to the fediverse. It's missing the whole "circles/aspects" feature, and we still don't have the groups feature either, which I think is very useful and much appreciated by Facebook users.

    EDIT: Actually I just double checked and it does have circles actually.

  • This is probably controversial, but Google Plus was better than Facebook in every way.

  • Don't gaslight me. My comment was a joke and you reported it just to fuck with me. You're just harassing me at this point. Stop.

  • Yeah, you're right. The whole system in the U.S. seems to be set up to enable these kinds of events.

  • I think what they're implying is that this kind of thing doesn't really happen in France. At least not at the rate it's happening in the U.S. So they don't really need to worry about not having cell phones.

    To an extent it's the same with Canada. We're pretty lucky school shootings aren't a common occurrence. What's the worst that can happen here? The school runs out of maple syrup? (Of course I'm joking!)

  • Uh.. I'm actually French Canadian. My comment was meant as a joke.

    Edit: I really didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings. And if that happened, I apologize.

  • Oh yeah forget about trying to convince people like him over the internet and social media. In person it might be different.

  • You're probably right, sadly.
