I break things. Then I put them back together. Then I break them again. Just to show I mean business.

50 yo sysadmin using uBo, had the same issue as the other fellow. Don't be so dismissive, you are not the average case.

Like fighting the system, building barricades, car tyres on fire?

What if it's adjusting towards segregation and fascism? Should we go for that too?

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Same here. I always found the fandom and the whole concept suspect AF.

Network time protocol, man.

@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

I don't know the time right now and I barely function.

But they own everything...

That was beautiful, man.

I thought I was being recruited to the Thieves Guild for a second...

Wait. Am I?

@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

This made me laugh out loud for real.

Who are any of us but men?

You can lead a horse to water...

Some examples and common uses would be nice...

Ecce homo!

Ha ha ha, no you are most certainly not alone, that's gotta be one of the most common gripes with new users. Those things were written in the 70s and have remained unchanged since. It's a standardization thing. :)

Neigh.

I knew about tldr, I'm old Linuxoid now, but didn't know you could contribute. I'll give it another go. By this point though... I've already been through the hellfire.

You are a good and kind person.

Here, have this country song:
Merle Haggard - Are the Good Times Really Over (I Wish a Buck Was Still Silver)

Is that a dog?

MY ECONOMIC HARM!

Hey, also, just btw, as an aside, apropos...

If you use "smart devices" in your home, you're a fucking moron.

@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

What do you call supersized legos all painted black?

Big black blocks.

They didn't just pit us against each other through populist politics, they also hired us to fight one another.

It's pretty impressive in its darkness.

Hell's Angels? Because it feels like everything works with Hell's Angels now.

If you dig just below the surface, you will find that the very philosophical concept of "ownership" comes with terms and conditions.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Isn't GitHub Microsoft owned now? Or am I missing something?

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Are you saying things were better before? Because I feel like things have never been better! I'm a CEO of a F500 company though.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I know, I should have worded myself less aggressively.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Listen, I get where you're coming from don't get me wrong, what I meant was, back in the 80's, if you had a complaint, you had a number to an office, and the person answering was responsible for the content of the conversation, you know?

Now, as I see it, we've been kind of outsourced to take each others shit without having any real power. I don't know maybe that's trite, like obvious, you call a support center and get connected to India, know what I mean? They just offloaded their responsibility on the consumer, of which the employees most certainly are- we're all just consumers in the end. My 5c, also, apologies for any gangster lingo, I'm fuck white, I've just been watching a LOT of YouTube videos.

Did Google have misleading wording implying it was doing anything else?

Do they literally have anything else?

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

But then you have to pay $5 for every funkin service, I use dozens of platforms, that's going to be $100 a month for all of it. It simply isn't feasible, and frankly, this is a systemic capitalist issue, and we need to revolt and tear it down.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

That only makes me fight 3x as hard.

Install Tampermonkey, download antiYT blocker scripts from GitHub, there's tons of them!

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

We don't hate here. Except capitalism. We hate that.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Vivaldi + tampermonkey + GitHub scripts. And ublock, obv.

I noticed Mullvad's new DNS features seem to block a ton of ads by itself, so much that I can listen to Spotify Free for hours without any commercials!

The pebble thinking the mountain isn't there...

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Ads are as pure brainwashing as the definition allows for, literally changing your subconscious behavior by ceaseless repetition. It's considered torture under the Geneva convention, not sure how people got to the point where they think this is ok on radio, tv, billboards, everywhere all the time 24/7, but I have a feeling the brainwashing played a role.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

How much? I doubt it's more than just enough to make people think that, "oh that's nice", while doing some absurd minimum...

Ha ha ha! This is a problem for you? I WAS BORN IN IT MOLDED BY IT

Don't get stuck w Protonmail. I did, not worth.

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

It does but at ~$80/year, you might as well buy a domain and host your own email..

anarchy79 ,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

Host own email, just buy a domain.

Getting angry = tOxiCK i cry evertem

I wonder how many products you've bought in your life were made by child labor.

I'm a senior Linux sysadmin who's been following the evolution of AI over this past year just like you, and just like you I've been spending my days and nights tinkering with it non stop, and I have come to more or less the same conclusion as you have.

The downvotes are from people who haven't used the AI, and who are still in the Internet 1.0 mindset. How people still don't get just how revolutionary this technology is, is beyond me. But yeah, in a few years that'll be evident enough, time will show.
