I think Americans in general don’t see it as a difficult choice to support Ukraine

Politicians find it difficult because Republicans are pro-russian, and both parties are heavily aligned with Israel. So Ukraines the only one really seeing any push back.

To be fair, pretty sure the original point of the meme was a pompous asshole making a point

Like he by no means looks like a guy you want to agree with in that pic.

All systems: Government, Market, etc, should be regulated assuming corruption already exists.

Because one way or another it will reach that point long after you’re gone, if not before then.

Just wondering, but is there anything regarding packages or flatpaks (and variants of them) that would make immutable systems a requirement in order to use your applications, or would it still be possible to use a regular distro?

I’m sure there wouldn’t really be any complaints regarding 90% of linux users using immutable systems, as long as applications weren’t “locked in” to using those exclusively.

I mean, there’s a reason they don’t let you delete system32 anymore

It’s like one of the earliest troubleshooting joke memes. It just so happens people actually did that, and not because they wanted to do that.

But like on earlier versions of Windows you could absolutely delete any folder on the drive. I think there’s even a story about an uninstaller that accidentally deleted the entire root of the drive because it wasn’t written correctly.

Technically, yes!

Forums aren’t gone. They just were never really big to begin with. Reddit eclipsed all of them to the point that most forums were irrelevant unless they were highly specific (not like, a gaming or show community) or couldn’t be on reddit (straight piracy with linking, other stuff we won’t talk about)

They’re not even gone, just the communities that want them are fewer and far between.

huh, well that’s interesting to know.

Doesn’t upvote already do that though?

Isn’t this ignoring the whole thing in the link about negative responses being removed?

Sure you can’t have mods being vigilant 24/7, but the link seems to be arguing they’re being vigilant in keeping the bad link up.

The only time I really paid attention to it was when upvotes didn’t work to actually upvote people.

I don’t really see the point of boost.

I guess some people are saying it’s like retweets, but since I never really retweeted either…

Can it tell you what it learned, or does it copy billions of conversations online of what other people learned?

If it can’t interpret, it’s not learning.

All you get is the most basic form of data retention, if it retained millions of examples.

That’s a very simplified version of it that just ignores the premise though. The cloud does a lot of things that locally-hosted software and content does not, and not all of it is simply by nature of being on another PC

Hence why the article seems to suggest advancing P2P for more uses, which is another way to visit another computer, but has many differences from visiting “The Cloud”

Are they calling Streaming Sites Streamers? I’m confused.

If it could just be a sentence, then it should be whatever site I saw that shows why instances were de-federated

I really wish I could remember what site it was though.

I think eventually there may be too many to explain them all.

But if I recall isn’t is possible to provide a comment for every de-federated instance that can be looked up? i swear I’ve seen it before.

Is this the same report that was brought up where it was found out Twitter has the exact same issue?

Opera is fine atm honestly. But it’s a chromium based browser too so it would potentially have these issues eventually.

As someone who never liked Facebook…not a particular fan if Zucker wins.

Based on all the comments though, the reason seems to be baked into Mastodon’s design

It seems to be a clash of what two groups of users want since a few seem to be happy with how Mastodon does it.
