Because they’re a monopoly and should get nationalized to ensure they align with the citizens rather than with the greedy shareholders.

I use Firefox with uBO on Windows and it doesn’t help. I tried installing filters I found online but they don’t do shit.

I’ll just install FreeTube.

I just have my phone always silenced except for phone calls from contacts.

Each time it offers to translate a page, there’s a “Never translate from [LANGUAGE]” button.

Rural areas are already covered by Viasat. Which is going to be more efficient due to the simple nature of only needing like 5 to 10 satellites in the 100-year orbit height… rather than 60,000+ Starlink satellites in the 5-year orbit height.

Latency sucks with Viasat. You won’t play multiplayer games on it, and even web browsing will be sluggish with how many round trips displaying just a single page requires nowadays.

Can you connect PCI-E devices to USB 4? That feels like the only useful feature of Thunderbolt imo.

I didn’t fully drop Reddit but I use it significantly less.

You definitely have access logs that contain IP addresses.

If I have a camera on a tripod and I angle down…the view goes up. If I angle up, the view goes down.

I much prefer a simpler analogy: If I look up, I look up. If I look down, I look down.

My Facebook is only memes, only from the large meme pages, not the ones I like that I have to check manually since they’ll never end up in my feed. And news articles.

It started with Facebook just hiding what your friends are posting. It still happens that someone shares a photo once a year or so, but I will never get shown it. I just browse my friend’s profiles manually.

That meme’s been on the front page every day for the last week. Did karma farming bots make their way here?

Some people will always want wires to transfer data,

But that group of people is growing smaller and smaller with each year. I haven’t used a phone cable to transfer files once in the last 8 years. Phones just sync to cloud.

I always thought [dumping](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumping_(pricing_policy\)) was illegal.

I don’t know the prices now, but half a year ago in Poland olive oil was cheaper than any other oil and significantly cheaper than butter. Like 6€ a liter.

And will only get more expensive.

Surprisingly more readable than standard C++

It’s so idiotic that it can’t be malice.

It’s just Linus overworking his employees.

Unix was originally a networked system that many terminals would connect to. Being able to actually reach the machine meant that you had authority.

It’s the same today. If someone has physical access, the system is so screwed that you can just give total privileges anyways.

It’s easy to port, has low system requirements, and it’s funny to see running on a toaster
