lukecooperatus , to Lefty Memes in While you were worried about socialism…

The golden palace in their mind.

lukecooperatus , to Fuck Cars in Elon Musk haters vandalized dozens of Tesla Cybertrucks by spray painting "F**K ELON" on dozens of them

Anybody who buys one of those vehicles is someone who sucks also. Fuck em all.

lukecooperatus , to Privacy in Snowden: "They've gone full mask-off: do not ever trust OpenAI or its products"

I think you need to take a break and get some perspective.

Besides, the Twitter link was already posted by the OP, why would it need to be posted again?

lukecooperatus , to Lefty Memes in Reminder...

That's kind of a circular logic though; the DNC alienates voters who don't like their blessed candidates. If they didn't do that, and more leftist candidates like Sanders were welcomed, then the "average Democrat" might look a bit different.

lukecooperatus , to Lefty Memes in Reminder...

Hillary won the popular vote in 2016 by a nearly 3 million vote margin, I don't think you need to feel any regret over your one vote going to someone else you actually wanted to vote for.

Also, even if she'd lost the popular vote too, it ain't the voters fault that the DNC keeps deliberately sabotaging the good candidates in their primaries to give us turds.

lukecooperatus , to homeassistant in Show us your dashboards

Still want to add a few bits of info to it, but I'm pretty happy with the dashboard for my kitchen display that sits on top of the fridge where I can see it from the living room as well:

Uses the excellent LCARS theme by th3jesta via HACS.

Almost everything shown is just standard markdown cards, with minor tweaks by card-mod, with the exception of the 2 weather widgets shown (also via HACS):

lukecooperatus , to Privacy in Fuck ads at the gas pump

I don't even have an EV and I have to see the ads on the chargers because they're in front of the store I'm walking into. So far, I've only noticed that at grocery stores, but it's annoying.

lukecooperatus , to Mildly Infuriating in Windows 10 is the last version of Windows

Windows 11 is technically still Windows 10, if you go by the actual version reported by the systeminfo command. For example, my fully updated Windows 11 Pro VM reports itself as OS Version: 10.0.22631, so there might still be something to the idea that "Windows 10 is the last version" but the marketing and branding teams didn't stay on the same message.

lukecooperatus , to Privacy in Google Allows Creditors to Brick Your Phone

You don't see how a corporate entity like Google is related to capitalism? What exactly do you think capitalism means?

lukecooperatus , to Lefty Memes in Neoliberal adaptation

Those aren't comparable situations IMO.

People can't just pack up and leave because they disagree with their neighbors in real life, that takes money which not many people have a surplus of, especially in Alabama. That's not a choice.

Using Twitter is completely different, it costs nothing financially to stop going go a website. Your point about the social aspect and need for community is not wrong, but also if one values their social connections with fascists and fascist-enablers.. well.. I think you see where I'm going with that. That is a choice.

lukecooperatus , to Free and Open Source Software in Looking for FOSS WYSIWYG HTML editor

It's not downloadable software, but you might check out WordPress if you haven't recently, it's open source and free (though you do need to host it somewhere).

It used to have kind of a bad reputation for being a horrible hodgepodge of bad editing UI and random plugins that do things in wildly different ways, but the WordPress team has really stepped up their game in the last few years and it's actually very nice now as long as you stay away from the commercial plugins. There's almost always an open source plugin available for anything you'd want to do, but the out of box experience is plenty good for most pages you'd be likely to need.

WordPress has a very nice "block editor" enabled by default these days, which is essentially just their name for a WYSIWYG interface. Use drag and drop to design the pages, and then click a button to see it in a "code editor" that shows the HTML if you'd rather edit that way.

Anyhow, I know it's not exactly what you asked for, but I thought I'd mention it since you did say you are open to something web based.

lukecooperatus , to Technology in Mozilla CEO quits, org pivots, but what about Firefox?

As far as I know, Firefox Mobile doesn't have a bottom toolbar so I'm not really sure what you are referring to there (at least, there's no bottom toolbar in Firefox on Android where I'm using it), and the notification/battery area is definitely not part of Firefox. It sounds like your phone's system UI is providing those elements, and it's likely not really fair to blame problems with the system UI on Firefox.

lukecooperatus , to Technology in Mozilla CEO quits, org pivots, but what about Firefox?

How do you mean? I've been using it for a couple of months now and aside from one website (my bank) everything I've tried to do with it has been perfectly fine. It even has adblock and videos play in the background. I've also not seen any issues with dark mode; I'm using dark mode right now, actually.

lukecooperatus , to Technology in Apple Vision Pro Owners Are Struggling to Figure Out What They Just Bought

They kinda do already; Apple sells a twisted piece of metal for $1k, and people buy it from them.

lukecooperatus , to Privacy in googerteller: an audible feedback on just how much your browsing feeds into google

Something like this would be cool for ublock origin too, with a sound pinging whenever an ad is blocked; could be fun.
