aes,

you moderate lemmy communities in your free time so let’s calm the fuck down

aes,

Why would anyone join Lemmy/Mastodon if they could join Threads instead for the same content? Normal people don’t care that your shit is FLOSS or decentralised, they just want convenience.

aes, (edited )

Your argument was that people aren’t using servers that run FLOSS federated software is because they’re not aware of them. My argument is that the people who aren’t aware are also people who wouldn’t use those servers even if they knew.

The people who run their own mail servers are massive nerds, the people who are on Mastodon are also massive nerds. This status quo won’t change just because a megacorp adopts ActivityPub (in fact, you eloquently bring to attention how everyone uses Gmail or Hotmail, and basically no individual runs their own mail server*). So if that’s your argument, the original commenter’s point still stands.

*Moreover I’ve heard that because of this monopoly on email, sending email from a mail server you run to the big providers without it immediately getting sent to spam, if delivered at all, is basically impossible.

aes,

Psst,

git add -p

aes,

These maps are reminiscent of the accuracy and care with how the British divided up nations half way across the world.

aes,

Can I just enjoy a fuckin game without being browbeat on DEI garbage?

The article is about sloppy journalism, not what you, personally, are allowed to enjoy, you illiterate fuckhead.

aes,

Child marriage is illegal where I live, so I don’t have to worry about this

man reading this was like seeing someone kidnap a mcdonald’s employee and expecting the execs to pay ransom

aes,

i already learned how to use my operating system, now you’re telling me I have to learn 30 new libraries that do the exact same shit?

Reddit is blocking users based on user agents? (feddit.de)

Started to get this message when accessing Reddit. I use LibreWolf as a browser, which does indeed provide a more generic user agent to combat fingerprinting, but nothing out of the ordinary either (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0). Anyone else experiencing this?...

aes,

Now that Web Environment Integrity is shut down, Reddit decides to take matters into their own hands…

no one’s fucking downloading Arch to have a quick and easy OOTB experience, and no one’s touching Fedora workstation for a lightweight and super tailored OS.

This is a strawman at best, and OP is full of shit.

aes,

It is a selfish and short view of the world.

Empathy, cognitive, emotional, compassionate, comes more naturally to some individuals than to others.

What you see here is someone who may not understand the situation and its consequences, or has trouble forming a connection with the people impacted by the situation. But the compassion does show, they’re reaching out, asking questions, trying to understand.

I don’t think that’s a sign of a selfish or short-sighted person.

You download a copy of a photo I took to your computer.

I have a website that lets people see the photo, it’s a popular website

Except that photo on my website doesn’t point to a copy of that photo on one of my computers, it points to the copy on yours.

Millions of people visit my website, and each time they do, they download your copy of my photo.

Uploading that photo to millions of computers across the world fucks up your internet service. You could also switch out my photo for another one, maybe even an offensive one, but my website would still point visitors to it.

In the original post, this is what a multibillion dollar corporation, a bank, did to a not-for-profit service that keeps a historical record of the internet.

I hinted at the security implications of what happened, but explaining that would make the analogy too complex.

aes,

If you don’t get it, it’s ok.

the way you follow up the psychopathic sense of humour by trying to gaslight people who think something fucked up is fucked up is almost artful

What the hell is this shit? Instead of pushing for the return to traditional pensions, capitalism is celebrating the idea that Millennials and Gen Z may simply never be able to stop working. (www.cnbc.com)

Traditionally, retiring entails leaving the workforce permanently. However, experts found that the very definition of retirement is also changing between generations....

aes,

what the fuck is up with all these pansy-ass terms suits keep coming up with? “quiet quitting” and now “soft saving”?

fuck this marshmallow flavoured cyanide bullshit

aes,

motherfuckingwebsite.com

aes,

“a community full of well-adjusted people with high-functioning asd who can integrate into society commandeers the term asd”

like i don’t have an opinion on the post but i fucking knew this place was full of shit

Will the world ever stop being anti-intellectual?

One of the most aggravating things to me in this world has to be the absolutely rampant anti-intellectualism that dominates so many conversations and debates, and its influence just seems to be expanding. Do you think there will ever actually be a time when this ends? I'd hope so once people become more educated and cultural...

aes,

Drinking game: click on a random username in the comments section and take a shot every time they start talking out of their ass

My account doesn’t count (although I am flattered, weirdo)

aes,

that study talks about oled displays btw, shit’s not gonna change for regular backlit devices

word of the day is greenwashing, fucking engrave it into your brain – get the words for the phenomena and all that shit

aes,

didn’t they like… scrape everyone’s open source code for an ai and then gatekeep that shit to their own infra?

aes,

let me paint you a different picture

i’m the one shoving you into a locker.

aes,

you guys know that .sucks is selling shovels, hard, right? you’re not actually this stupid, are you?

aes, (edited )

edit: or maybe not, it’s a pretty universal experience

aes,
