Have never and will never fly. Don’t care. Too much shit goes wrong. “BUT YOU ARE MORE LIKELY TO GET IN AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT” Yeah, but cars tend to not FALL OUT OF THE FUCKING SKY FROM WAY THE HELL FAR UP WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG. Hate that fucking statistic because you DO have a good amount of control over the safety of your own car vs. a plane that if any little thing goes wrong, you’re likely fucked.
Sure, there are dangers driving a damn car. There’s danger walking out of your front door. Getting into the shower. Doing ANYTHING in this life with our frail-ass human bodies. I’m not going to escalate that by going up into the goddamn sky on board an old-ass fucking airplane depending on half-assed maintenance and poorly done code. If my car fails, it’s on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck. If I get hit by someone, or I hit someone, at least I can survive and that is significantly improved with the quality of my driving. If the plane fails, I’m fucking dead, end of fucking story.
Don’t give me this CARS ARE MORE DANGEROUS shit. And “odds” mean nothing because at any time the odds can fall against you. Odds aren’t a guarantee of “this has to happen X number of times in Y without fail”. Typical uneducated thinking.
Back in the old days, when a file sharing service got found out by corporations and started sending nasty letters, people stopped using that service.
Too bad the torrenting generation never learned that lesson and now torrenting is just one big clusterfuck of “seekret club” sites and paying (VPNs) to pirate, which is laughable.
The MIT license is a “libre” license, because it does meet the Free Software Definition.
Nope. It allows someone to use code without sharing the changes of that code. It enables non-free software creators like Microsoft to take the code, use it however they like, and not have to share back. This is what Free Software prevents.
Tired of people calling things like MIT and *BSD true libre/Free Software. They’re basically one step away from no license at all.
I’ve never understood the need for ReVanced because every single application it supports is a horrible pile of trash I’d never install in the first place. So many good alternatives and people would rather patch garbage like Spotify? Why?
So the notification that is in the browser that directs you to update it wasn’t enough? Because that totally works with the flatpak version of tor, because all the flatpak version of tor does is download a copy of the browser to your home directory and run it. There’s a little notification dot on the hamburger menu of tor that directs you to the about page where you can download and update.
Because that’s what I’ve been doing.
I use GOG to get away from downloading things in the context of a store and have a nice little archive of installers to use whenever I want it. I am trying to get as many Steam games to just be that way so when I run the binary it just works without Steam being involved at all. Laughably few will do it on their own but there are some ways around others…
Yeah, quite happy without some bloated launcher, thanks.
Reddit has loved that asshole forever. We forget that back in 2016 Reddit allowed a huge subreddit full of upvoting bots and trolls to post the most atrocious lies and slander and bullshit (/r/the_d**ald) on the entire site and it got so bad that it was the ONLY SUBREDDIT ON THE FIRST PAGE OF /r/all FOR AT LEAST A WEEK.
They pulled back when they saw their profits declining and the massive backlash going on but now that we’re in full fascism mode, reddit is going all out again.
Fuck that place.
And this is why this country has gone to hell. Sorry, “heck.”
We’re going to get every fucking Dem on MAGA’s side because “baww, re-elections!” Fuck this shit. Get a fucking army, march into the White House and remove that fucking convicted felon from it who never should have been eligible for running for president in the first place, get Harris in there to fix his bullshit, and get this country back on track.
If that doesn’t happen, there’s going to be a mass exodus from this country because we’re absolutely goddamned fucked. Oh, sorry, “absolutely gat-durned clucked.” I forgot swearing was illegal now.
Librewolf, it’s Firefox but without the evil.
Glide straight down. Even the most controlled emergency landing is a near-disaster.
Planes are dangerous.
