So why are you advocating for the displacement of the majority of the world’s language families based on european languages popularity it gained through colonial displacement?
The majority of the world don’t speak european languages.
Kind of wild that you use Haiti as an example here, considering the european genocide of the Taino people, as well as the european importation of african slaves, two groups that didn’t speak european languages, and had their languages erased by the same process you’re advocating for.
Aren’t you Irish? You know the English colonizers did their best to wipe out the Irish language and replace it with the one you’re advocating for right???
Inspired by a post since deleted, I feel bad for probably coming off judgemental about the poster’s taste in the movie that drove him to consider sailing....
The pirates innovated and made content available long before the corporations did.
Before streaming services took off, it was the only way to get movies and music (besides some IRC rooms). There were even a few golden years where movies would get leaked to torrents in full quality, before the theatrical release.
Music too was easier to find on napster, limewire, and torrents, than your local music store.
I could go on and on, but I am pretty sure all this is just “misogyny” and I need to read certain theory and I need to surround myself with feminists who are thirsty to oppress men at all costs.
Feminists are not “hungry to oppress men at all costs”. You have no idea what feminism is, and its clear you’re getting all your information about it from right-wing chuds. I recommend reading more books and actually engaging with feminist theory, rather than watching anti-feminist / manosphere troll channels. There are plenty of resources we can recommend, that you should read before going on these rants.
Tread carefully, because we will not hesitate to issue temp ban for misogyny. Follow Mao’s advice here: No investigation, no right to speak.
Signal can’t see who is texting who. They can’t see which groups you are part of. Those information are end to end encrypted, same as your chats itself, your profile picture, your stories, etc.
This is completely false. They can absolutely see who is texting who, in fact they need it to be able to route messages. They have message timestamps, and phone numbers stored in their database.
Question, why do you “trust” signal? You can’t see what code their centralized server is running, unlike matrix which you can self-host and build from source. You don’t have to “trust” matrix, you can verify it for yourself.
If I type a space followed by a quotation mark, the quotation mark replaces the space, making it difficult to type start quotes. And if I try to place an end quote directly after another letter, it will either modify the letter if it’s a vowel to become an umlaut, or it won’t type the quotation mark unless I first enter a...
I like codeberg, but they also removed a torrent project I was working on because it didn’t comply with german law. Kind of unavoidable when you use any centralized service, especially in a country that’s severely anti-piracy.

To date, what do you think is the greatest invention or discovery and why?
Mine is the computer. I continue to be amazed at what we can do with them.
