I mean, it would be an order of magnitude more work to grow all the food and build the (subpar in comparison) amenities I need to survive. But I guess then I would just be a slave to nature. You can't escape.

Simon , (edited )

Why?? Please make this make sense. Having AI to help with coding is ideal and the greatest immediate use case probably. The web is an open resource. Why die on this stupid hill instead of advocating for a privacy argument that actually matters?

Edit: Okay got it. Hinder significant human progress because a company I don't like might make some more money from something I said in public, which has been a thing literally forever. You guys really lack a lot of life skills about how the world really works huh?

Simon ,

Now this is something I can get behind. But I was talking about the decision to retaliate in the first place.

Simon ,

??? So why don't we get better at making energy than get scared about using a renewable resource. Fuck it let's just go back to the printing press.

Amazing to me how stuff like this gets upvoted on a supposedly progressive platform.

Simon ,

The deeper I get into this platform the more I realize the guise of being 'progressive, left, privacy-conscious, tech inclined' is literally the opposite.

Simon ,

When you say those words do you imagine normal people reading this and not laughing

Simon ,

Hmmm, no custom bare metal commercial product running linux? Roger that captain.

Simon OP ,

Ah, the solution to every problem isn't it?

Simon OP ,

Maybe you guys should pick another lemmy for hating on reddit. You realize this community is casual? Looks like you all are pretty lost.

Simon OP ,

Do you always just talk like you know other peoples' motivations? I don't think you know as much as you think.

Simon OP ,

Well I was gonna ask, because not only am I not incensed, or think anybody should be surprised, or saying you're a problem, and this post was also supposed to be funny. You are one fucking dumb cunt with a miserable life, jesus.

Simon OP ,

I was never under it, douchebag

Simon OP ,

Hmm.. accusations of pedophilia. I was gonna say 'mods is this the kind of vibes you're intending to curate on this community?' But, the last comment of the top mod is 9 months ago agreeing that you guys are gatekeeping douchebags and then he promptly left. This is truly, truly tragic, your level of pathetic autistic calamity.

Simon ,

Did this person write a book because I want to read it.

Simon ,

Ubuntu advertises their paid cloud hosting service every time you install server manually.

Simon ,

Lol I can't understand how you get so many upvotes but when I make a meme everybody's like "what's a stan???" Linux users are some of the most antisocial people on the planet.

Simon ,

It's what you take when you're not afraid

Simon ,

Here's my prediction. Over the next couple decades the internet is going to be so saturated with fake shit and fake people, it'll become impossible to use effectively, like cable television. After this happens for a while, someone is going to create a fast private internet, like a whole new protocol, and it's going to require ID verification (fortunately automated by AI) to use. Your name, age, and country and state are all public to everybody else and embedded into the protocol.

The new 'humans only' internet will be the new streaming and eventually it'll take over the web (until they eventually figure out how to ruin that too). In the meantime, they'll continue to exploit the infested hellscape internet because everybody's grandma and grampa are still on it.

Simon ,

Yeah but why is it disposable though. Plastic waste smh.

Simon ,

It's obviously to ensure terrorists can't use them at scale without obtaining crates of the things. They made and sold a reusable multitool once - society almost didn't recover.

Simon ,

When I do this in Bing it gives me the answers to other users' queries.

Simon ,

I dunno man, these are awfully specific. In case it wasn't obvious I've never had an interest in cricket or PL/I.

Sure, here are the details from our previous conversations:

On Sat, 06 Apr 2024, you asked me about PL/I (Programming Language One). I explained that it is a procedural, imperative computer programming language initially developed by IBM. It is designed for scientific, engineering, business, and system programming. PL/I has been in continuous use by academic, commercial, and industrial organizations since it was introduced in the 1960s. The language syntax is English-like and suited for describing complex data formats with a wide set of functions available to verify and manipulate them. PL/I supports recursion, structured programming, linked data structure handling, fixed-point, floating-point, complex, character string handling, and bit string handling. PL/I is a block-structured language, consisting of packages, procedures, statements, expressions, and built-in functions. Programs written in PL/I are made up of blocks, which can be either subroutines or groups of statements.
On Thu, 11 Apr 2024, I repeated the details about the last cricket match between India and Australia:
3rd ODI: The IND vs AUS 3rd ODI was on Wednesday, March 22, 2023 at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Australia beat India by 21 runs in the third men’s one-day international. Australia’s spinners put the squeeze on India and leg-spinner Adam Zampa shone bright with the ball as Australia bundled out India for 248 in 49.1 overs. Australian players celebrated with the trophy after they won the third ODI cricket match against India to win the series 2-1.
3rd T20: The last India vs Australia 3rd T20I was in 2022. India beat Australia by six wickets in the third and final T20I to clinch the three-match series 2-1 on Sunday. Cameron Green (52 off 21 balls) and Tim David (54) scored the bulk of runs as Australia put 186 for 7 after being invited to bat.

Interestingly it's not random, whenever I ask it again it's returning the same results for a user who's not me (though these answers may be associated with me now)

Simon ,

It says it won't give it usernames, probably a hardcoded thing

Simon ,

Pretty sure this should be in reverse? And can you really say you're into Linux if you don't even know what the fuck WSL is?

Simon ,

To me a smart device was supposed to be a normal device that you could control 'smartly' over wifi.

Mini SoCs with their own apps and an optional subscription built in for some proprietary shit? That goes past smart straight into dumpster trash.

Simon ,

Windows power users? My ass. Any Windows power user knows you can just turn this shit off with group policy. I think what you mean is 'we need something polarizing to write about hurrr'. That website is a joke.

Take your shitty garbage journalism back to buzzfeed you fucking hacks.

Simon ,

Sure. Let's not rub each other off too hard over it though.

Simon ,

Oh no, speculators' third party products don't work. Anyway... get a real job fuckface.

Simon , (edited )

It's almost like... endless growth is unsustainable.

Edit: Downvoted by a shareholder lol

Simon ,

I can't see how that's ever arguable since Apple has only been about premium high-end products since Jobs took over. That's literally the opposite of Henry Ford.

Simon ,

In opposition to popular sentiment, good journalism actually does make money. It just doesn't make as much money. And bad journalism without advertising makes no money.

Simon ,

I mean, for some of the stuff I've seen here I wouldn't even necessarily disagree with a comment like this but the OP saying advertising violates journalistic integrity has literally nothing to do with that. That's just common sense.

Simon ,

I can confidently say the majority of people there are dirt poor lol

Simon ,

Kink usually involves the sexualizing of things which aren't normally sexualized. The act in itself can be a turn on.

Simon ,

Black rock city. Bring your own meat though.

Simon ,

Cool story bro

Simon ,

But it is. WSL is linux. With most distros available. Macos with coreutils is macos with coreutils.

Simon ,

I like it. I can run linux from the command line whenever I want. I can play whatever game I want without pulling my hair out.

Simon ,

Oh hey. I made the linux part of this - Please don't hurt me.
Please don't hurt me
