So damn based. Makes me NOT wanna pirate their games. Hell, I'd even purchase even if I wouldn't play it (if I could rn, but currently I've got hefty cat veterinary bills to pay).

Edit: OH MATE! THEY'RE THE POSTAL STUDIO! Goddamn I played it so damn much in my early teens. Goddamn I gotta pay my bills faster!

Overwork is also one form of workplace abuse. It just makes the matters worse

Should be pinned ngl

Many people already said stuff I agree with, but I'd also include low-income families being "justified" in pirating stuff, be it for work, study or entertainment (as entertainment is a basic right imo)

He wants to be recognized by his "Elon-senpai" to take part in the "dick measuring" contest too.

I can put some faith in SUSE, they've done good work throughout the years.

Unlike fucking Oracle.

• Code in VSCodium
• Code in Kate to keep thing fresh
• Code in Nvim because I still need to learn it
• Cry while debbuging a React app because the error messages aren't very good
• Wish I were working with Svelte or had enough backend experience to switch to being a backend dev
• Play with terminal configs and shell scripting to distract myself from my woes
• Rinse and repeat.

Aside from the (not so much) jokes, give VSCodium a try, it's to VSCode what Chromium is to Chrome, and works just as well.

That really synthetises why I dislike microblogging so much: It's a bunch of people throwing small-talk and rage bait everywhere, all the time.

Considering a lot of people are really bad at conservation in every possible way, it also makes sense why microblogging is so much more popular than forum-like platforms.

Based Konqi! Best FOSS mascot alongside Krita 's Kiki!

Edit: Fixed autocorrect's mischief on Krita's name

As a cyclist I lost count on the number of times I was almost ran over by some vehicle at 100+ km/h

Damn, that's neat! Gonna follow Nick's channel (the linux experiment) from here.

edit: Okay, that worked really well. It shows on Lemmy as !thelinuxexperiment_channel@tilvids.com

That could have been better communicated though. What you said is reasonable, what Michal said isn't as much.

This thing will also possibly ban books that weren't ever written. Just as dumb and full of BS as the Republicans that want to use it smh

I pass. Gamifying social interactions leads to abuse and lowers the quality of posts, comments, reports, etc. It's a streamlined path to enshittification.

Only user-provided 🏅🐭 awards here, at most.

Ruining a global social media platform, the speedrun

I am on lemmy.world, but the inaction of the admins there made me create an account here on .ml as soon as I saw one of the admins being basically as "naive" as Mastodon's Rochko.

Denuvo only makes me go meet a FitGirl and her friends.

That's based. I might give PopOS a try when their new DE reaches feature completion (since they don't sell their laptops in my country unfortunately)

The biggest threat IMO is being exposed to Meta-curated content. They definitely use their algorithms to push narratives in their interest.

Being exposed to their users is being exposed to them by proxy.

I'd bet a lot of the so called "supporters" are astro-turfed accounts.

I still play with my old Legos, albeit very rarely.

Been using lawnchair since forever, I try to avoid closed source apps as much as possible, so Nova was never an option for me.

How much of those 3% are comprised of the 1% who are active posters and the 10% who contribute commenting instead of the ~90% lurkers?

I'm willing to bet more than 20% of the people who left Reddit are frequent contributors instead of lurkers. Those are the users that drive traffic in the long run.

Cute logo, although it sounds like it's related to FireFox somehow.

As far as I'm concerned, why not? Useful bots deserve recognition as well

I'm happy to call lemmy.ml my new home. BASED take!

I was able to control my focus with ease instead of having it yanked away by almost anything, and also got able to control the hyperfocus periods (as in, being able to stop whatever I'm doing to take care of other important needs).

As a side benefit, my mood also got better, during medication effects I feel less anxiety and am less prone to anger.

Librewolf is based on FF, you know right? Mozilla does receive Google funding (that's why their default search engine is Google), but adopting FF and derivatives is also about Chromium not being the single dominant engine: that would only strengthen Google's monopoly.

As long as we don't use Chromium-based browsers (and Google services) we're doing good against Google's monopoly already.

That's not from bad apps... If anything this new policy will make me use the mobile website instead of the app.

I'd also consider switching banks if it isn't too much of a hassle. They clearly can't invest well in terms of security for their users.

Sounds like a noise a lizard could make

That explains why content quality over there is so damn bad, I didn't know about that before since I skipped the Quora train.

We need not only to have the kids of today to learn digital literacy and privacy rights, but also their parents. I'm really low-profile about my personal life, and I like that my family is also like that.

I did it the moment they decided not to defederate from Meta. I don't like admins who can't take decisive actions to protect their users (and apparently seem to bend their knees to any big corpo out there)

By far it's Kate, even though I'm now a neovim user. It's just a great IDE.

My main tips are: get the live ISOs of a few of the most used Linux distributions, I'd recommend in particular: Debian (my current one), Mint, Fedora and OpenSUSE.

For Debian and Fedora, get both the KDE and GNOME editions. OpenSUSE is mainly only KDE, and Mint uses Cinnamon. Those are the "desktop types".

Try each live system on a virtual machine and see which one you like best. Your main choice tbh is the desktop environment you like the best (mine is KDE, also called Plasma), each distribution has it's own way of doing a few things as well.

Then pick the one you enjoy the most. All of those are long-lived, stable and well-supported and documented.

Source: me, I've used Linux since 2003 and introduced all my family it and they have been using it for years with no issue.

As a frontend dev I hate frontend. CSS is not even the main issue.

Fuck Jest and having to mock libraries. I'm gonna go backend in Go or something like that ASAP.

Firefox, Termux, VLC, Jerboa, LiftOff, PPSSPP

It's been some years since I last used Inkscape. Sounds like a good time to dabble again with it.

For holy heavens, he's striving to hit every 'Murican stereotype
