Windows is not as hard as Linux. You’re just being silly at this point. I’m not saying Windows is better, but it is engineered from the ground up to accommodate the lowest common denominator.

Case in point, installing a program on Windows? Double click the exe and you’re done. On Linux? It can be that simple but usually is much more involved.

I prefer the model where you buy updates if you want or need them

Its cute that Linux users think the average Windows users is even aware of the existence of Linux

Better yet make it a public entity or employee owned

58008 is boobs upside down

FYI you’re not going an unbiased answer to any political question on ml

Not to mention the rise of vehicle violence, running over protesters and such.

For the same reason N64 games couldn’t run on the SNES

Oops

It’s the only good way to do VR. Otherwise it’s just a gimmick.

Same as always. There is no technology capitalism can’t corrupt

My point is that a place can still be not political while supporting objectively good social movements.

Cultural issues =/= politics

Liking Amos is genuinly a sign you may be a sociopath

Not the person you replied to but I also used to be a hardcore Christian conservative.

Honestly just talking to people with different viewpoints than me. Back when Reddit was decent I would troll with conservative BS to get a rise out of commenters, but occasionally people would reply with points I couldn’t refute. Making IRL friends helped a lot too. I realized people actually have nuance in their opinions and there’s a lot more gray area than I realized. Leaving religion was the last step for me. Once my identity was no longer my beliefs I was able to change them.

Its part of what scares me about the internet now, we all get locked in little echo chambers. Nobody’s viewpoints get challanged and there’s no honest debate any more. Defederated social media will only make it worse as there will be 10,000 different Lemmys, each one for an exactly specific set of beliefs that will never be questioned.

Leftist ideology is at its core about people. Even when it is wrong, it’s wrong trying to help people.

The right is just about power. The only mistakes it makes are actions that cost it power.

Marketing. Corporate leadership has decided marketing knows better software design than actual engineers.

And only then because the USPS is a federal agency. You can bet if private corporations ran it there would be no such privacy.

There is no technical solution that will stop corporations with deep pockets in a capitalist society
