I hope to god one day the developers at Mozilla finally get tired of this shit and fork everything under a new org.
Fuck off with more services and give me my integrated FTP client back. No one who uses Mozilla software wants more cloud shit or online services from Mozilla.
One of Sony’s best-ever PlayStation ads is a 21-second video titled, “Official PlayStation Used Game Instructional Video.” It’s a “step-by-step” guide about how to lend your PS4 games to your friends. It has one step: one person hands another person a game box…
…But more than a decade later, it’s not hard to imagine a future where Sony’s own ad doesn’t apply anymore
What a gut punch!
The real issues are capitalism and the lack of green energy.
If the arts where well funded, if people where given healthcare and UBI, if we had, at the very least, switched to nuclear like we should’ve decades ago, we wouldn’t be here.
The issue isn’t a piece of software.
I know that was part of my point. Thing was mostly finalized by my birth year lmao.
Also, little off-topic but, as important as it is to computing culture, some of the gatekeepy shit put in there aged like milk. But I kind of expect that from nerd culture, especially 20th century nerd culture.
Bit of an unhinged and unreasonable nerd rant but here it goes:
The second dot com boom in the 2010s ruined us. Like holy shit. As someone younger looking down the line, living in tech bro culture, but exposed to the likes of the jargon file, y combinator and their venture capitalists literally ruined hacker culture.
We used to have a thriving culture that cherished freedom, real freedom, not freedom for the rich. What happened to the culture that spawned Windows buyback day? What of the dream that networked freedom would one day break the chains of economic heirarchy?
Like holy fucking shit. If you’re not here for the love of the machine stop touching a compiler or better yet go loose your fucking hands.
The average person just needs to fall under a certain level of comfortability for all hell to break loose.
Unlike Hitler, this guy cant ‘fix’ the economy by going to war because any war big enough to bolster our already over bloated military budget would immediately end in MAD.
This isn’t a reason to act like its all gonna be okay, but I’d like to think we have a better shot than 1930’s Germany…
I hate to say this but fucking good. Throwing random people in Gitmo wasn’t enough to piss the people off to do anything, because the only thing that would be enough is when they fuck with everyone’s money.
I hate the “fuck you I got mine” attitude so fucking much.
Steam does most of the fucking around for you these days.
WHICH IS WHY YOU VOTE FOR SOMEONE.
They said to the person who voted blue. Im not telling you don’t vote, I’m telling you why most people my age who didn’t want Trump didn’t vote. I don’t know what more you want from me.
You’re never going to get a pony, so do what you can or they’ll make you be a pony. And not in a happy way. In a “work in the mines all your life” way.
Ending the horrors of late stage capitalism isn’t asking for a pony its the bare minimum to ensure the continued survival of our species.
Less than half of us voted. As a member of Gen Z who DID vote for Khamala its because the only good thing she does is not be Trump.
A good portion of our generations more liberal/left-leaning side just got done having the shit beaten out of them by cops before getting kicked out of school for protesting against the genocide in Gaza.
What makes you think any of these people want to turn around and vote for a law-and-order ex-DA who’s ignoring some of the worst atrocities of our times?
Everyone in this generation who isn’t jaded and disillusioned is a fascist or fascist sympathiser (same difference :p). No one has the energy to care let alone vote.
They probably won’t until establishment democrats keel over, and unfortunately it looks like medical science kept them alive and puttering until it was too late.
Holy fuck what happened to his eyebrows.
Just in case doesn’t mean I actually wanted to use them, I’ve got a transition to finish, I’m trying to fucking make it to Canada if I gotta.
I just think dying in a gun fight sounds better than going to a camp is all.
