Yep, I got a very basic trim 2010-2015 car. I think it’s about as new as you can get without really bad enshitification. The upper trims even had some of the gimmicks and techy stuff. I loath to think if the day this car dies. I may only ride my bike from that point on.
I want you all to know that I’m happy you’re here, cis het white male frat boy from old wealth with an ivy league education or a neorospicy gay trans Jewish anarcho-communist and everything else out there.
While I won’t judge you on your instance, I will judge you on your ability to be a good neighbor. I’m always glad to see humility, kindness, empathy, comradery, etc. on display.
At one point in the pandemic I worked for a sizeable tech company that was similar. They sent out an Zionism apologist email about how much the company supports Israel. STFU! We are the company, you wouldn’t have shit if we didn’t come to work. I know my colleagues well enough to know they are mostly NOT Neocons and Zionists. I was pretty pissed that they would say something political because it throws me into the position of having to address it because the “we” they used in the email makes it sound like I’m involved. I just work here. I don’t want any part of your corporate politics and I want you to know that when we seize the means of production (and your ill-begotton fruits of others labor) we’re gonna donate your yachts and bank accounts to help victims of Zionism and Imperialism.
Seriously, we’re killing the earth so a robot named Josh can cosplay severe auditory processing disorder in a bid to irritate me enough to give up on my custom service call.
Yep, this is 'merica and a bunch of people are already driving this destruction derby without insurance. Do we really want to add a bunch of Cybertrucks to that terrifying demographic?
When the UI crashes, it sometimes throws up a dialog with “copy URL to crash log”. I just cut and pasted from there.
“Every time I shake my mouse the curser gets bigger” sounds like a BeamNG drive youtube video.
I have seen many run it as an ATM transaction rounded to the nearest dollar and refund the change in cash. I saw this in two states.
Having said that. I love cash only businesses. Visa and the other CC companies have way too much power. We should all go back to cash tomorrow, but we won’t.
I ran a business, not weed related, that was cash only for the better part of 5 years. When I started taking cards I made sure cash and bitcoin were also options. The only downside was going to the bank every week to grab stacks of small bills for change. The upside was never having to deal with credit cards and every payment settling instantly when the cash changed hands. Under $100, cash is king.
Seriously, showing a pop up confirmation if the user tries to uninstall the last browser on the device is all that is needed.
Both interesting articles. Thank you for sharing.
I will check the next time I go to the store. I haven’t actually had the WiFi menu up because I just toggled from the quick tile.
Yes, I forgot to mention in the post, but turning WiFi works, only if I also turn off “detect high quality networks” and “turn WiFi back on when high quality network is detected” or whatever those options are.
Hmmm, that’s a theory. I’ll see what I can do to find all the APs and figure out if the WiFi chip in my phone has a known limit. I don’t think I have enough old routers to crash it myself. :-D
I don’t see any Arch sticker. If it was Arch, it would be the biggest sticker.
Do you feel the same way about Mastadon? Twitter was the “look at me” social media. I feel like you just shout things into the void and people give you points for agreeing with you. Its impossible to carry on a real conversation on Twitter (a proper threaded message board like Lemmy excels at this). It seems tied in with the cult of personality whereas we need to shift to a culture of ideas.
I’m probably just a stupid millennial who doesn’t get it, but Lemmy seems like the only really good fediverse structure.
Good luck to the creator. Pixelfed works well for me, despite being a bit empty, both on my instance and globally. The bones are there though and I personally prefer the way it works over Mastadon’s Twitterish format. I wish I could use Mastadon more because that’s where the mist fediverse users seem to be, but even decades later, Twitter style interfaces do not make sense to me. I’m a smart, nerdy, millennial, who grew up with computers. I can make sense of the IRS’s 1040 form without using turbo tax, but for some reason I can’t make sense of this horrible illogical interface that millions of people love.
In regards to the tiktok tok style app, I think it’ll have a good chance of success simply because it is TikTok’s less assholey cousin and even though many people will trade privacy for functionality, tiktok is about due to become a lame, cringe app for old folks.
Oh no a symbol is offensive. Better try and wipe it from the internet.
…removes millions of road signs and people drive off cliffs.
I’m surprised I didn’t think of the EFF despite donating to them before. Thank you for the links.
This looks really interesting. I try to get stories from varied sources, but don’t particularly want it “curated” for me. I’m going to add this to my rotation.
Frustratingly, every second they save us is counterbalanced by a 30 second ad or some other negative. I’m planning for a potential future where I might be using a dumb phone to avoid what they’re putting together.
I too am curious, morbidly so.
