well ubuntu is a shit stain in linux world anyway

olutukko ,

it's all about learning a new workflow. having to go to a website amd downloading exe and going trough an installation wizard from the most basic things like programming language compiler or a web browser seems so backwards for me now after using only linux for 3 years

olutukko ,

I have thought that so many times when I see these flour mixes. like bro you can literally make your own premix and I would assume you save a lot of money doing so

olutukko , (edited )

this is the stupidest comment I have read all week. chromenis fucking INFESTED in IT field. literally almost everyone uses it in my class, I'm a third year student in ict-engineering. literally everyone used it in my last school too, which was also IT related. if you actually believe that you must not really see other IT people outside the linux circles

olutukko , (edited )

I'm going to need some sources for that claim or I'm calling bullshit. I have never heard anyone claim that and I have seen absolutely zero evidence suggesting that.

edit:

these are the closest things I could find,

https://www.theverge.com/2024/3/22/24109116/mozilla-ends-onerep-data-removal-partnership

https://videoweek.com/2022/02/10/mozilla-partners-with-meta-for-privacy-preserving-attribution/

and neither is bad. meta is a questionable choice for privacy cooperation but even in that it makes sure no one, not even meta, can read those match keys

olutukko ,

after reading the privacy site that doesn't sound too bad. or at least "tracks you private data and shares it with their business partners" bad which makes it sound like they are literally spying on you.

they do send telemetry data yes, but not your ip or anything that could be used to track against you, they do share some data while using the search function from url bar which is prettt much necessary and that seems to be only the stuff you typed.

most of it seems to just be about sponsored content where they send the amount of clicks and time when those clicks happened so advertisers know some statistics and advertisors get their royalties. firefox does suggest you content based on your browsing history but that happens locally. in no point does you browsing history go outside your computer, which is the most important part to me. they do know what was suggested, but not how it was suggested

so in conclusion, they do send some device information, information about your clicks and where those clicks happened and some other very basic telemetry with no information that could be tracked to you.

of course if one want the ultimate privacy that can be a dealbreaker. but to say that they collect your private data is quite an overstatement imo. I couldn't give a damn if my browsing is part of some anonymous statistics.

but yeah in a way you're correct, they do collect data. like almost literally every application does in the modern era

olutukko , (edited )

yeah I can trust them with no ip logging because I live in eu and if that big of a company breaks their own rules it's going to get noted and addressed

and without the ip you just keep sending quite basic stuff anonymously. nobody is getting tracked by that. it's just pretty anoymous data which ingludes general stuff like tab count, information about your ROUGH location (ip based, not accurate), hardware, clicks, count of clicks, times page visited etc... so just basic stuff that has literally nothing to do with the actual user.
the link to your telemetry ends at the moment they don't tell the actual stuff that identifies you like your ip. please if you disagree, what part of that data don't you want to be shared because it has something to do with your privacy? it's all anonymous.

firefox is an opensource software where literally anyone can view the source code and check themselves what is actually sent. you argument all you want with the "but can youn trust them?" but literally anyone esle except some guy on youtube didn't feel like complaining about firefox

it's an opensource software, running with the expenses of a big browser. the fact that you let firefox use your anonymous telemetry for royalties is the least you can do to support browser like that. it is literally your specs, location by city, amount of clicks, where the clicks were, when it happened, and possibly some other stuff that I can't remember. all which is sent without you ip or other indications? what about those is actualy sacred?

also the sharing with third party service is only current with the current search service so you can choose yourself where you want to give your data in search engines.

and the google ad sevice only gets your ad-id which doesn't get linked to you if you don't use other google services in which case this conversation is pointless.

sorry if I missed something I'm high as fuck

But I see no reason for fearmongering or untrust. they are literally OPEN FUCKING SOURCE!

edit: and of course they are doing a lot of businnes with googe it is literally the biggest and easiest advertiser and they need money from somewhere. doesn't meen they spy on YOU and track YOUR data as your own and sell it with your info slapped on it.

they have 1100 employees to pay for and a LOT of servers for almost 15 million users. think about the costs with the mind that they also have to take profit to grow and get more customers. they cant stay completely still with growth and profits if they want to get more users and servers space. it takes a lot more resources to get as any users as it took in the firefox glory days

olutukko ,

asking in support group can lead to some annoying answers in my experience. I rarely get the answer I want, mostly just people questioning why I want to do the thing I'm trying to do in the first place, or mansplaining the thing that I already know. the straight to the point -answers are rare

olutukko ,

anything with a large user base and easy installer. but since I use fedora I must say, fedora

olutukko ,

hey that's insulting. against pigeons. they can at least fly without exploding (space x doesnt really), navigate to places without risking themselves (unlike telsa autopilot) and they don't ruin every corporation they own. fuck musk though

olutukko ,

tax returns are the most backwards shit that a first world country can have. seriously usa how can you live with it?

olutukko ,

xbox one

xbox one x

xbox series x

I agree with you so much

olutukko ,

no there is also a second use. to search answers for questins you're too embarassed about

Instagram Advertises Nonconsensual AI Nude Apps (www.404media.co)

Instagram is profiting from several ads that invite people to create nonconsensual nude images with AI image generation apps, once again showing that some of the most harmful applications of AI tools are not hidden on the dark corners of the internet, but are actively promoted to users by social media companies unable or...

okay enough internet for me today

I'd like to interject for a moment. (lemmy.ml)

What you’re refering to as Windows, is in fact, GNU/Windows, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Windows. Windows is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another closed component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising...

gtx 980 gang! I got mine free my from the dad of my ex back in like 2019

olutukko ,

I have a little bit, but due to gaming I stick with Xorg. also I just use i3wm nowadays which helps me get better performance in some games

olutukko ,

baldur's gate 3 was really unstable with gnome for me, and the fps was like half of what it's supposed to be. but with i3 I get decent fps and it's really stable! I'm not that sure about other games because I havent been paying attention to the fps but I feel the performance is generally better. no other game has shown that drastic change though :D

olutukko ,

I have no clue. I've been wondering the same thing, since I have 16gb ram so ram shouldn't be the issue

olutukko ,

I don't think that's it, I just checked out and the game only takes around 25-26% ram and it was running reasonably well with 4,5gb ram already taken. that 25gb ram sounds like someone is playing the game with 4k graphics or something. bg 3 lists only 8gb ram as mimimum requirement and 16gb is recommended

edit: I don't know if gnome takes up some grpahics card or cpu resources which affect the game performance since it's a lot bigger program than i3wm

olutukko ,

yeah it's quite odd. but at least I want to use i3wm anyways so it doesnt really matter

olutukko ,

dnf update

olutukko ,

It's a dream. Capitalism would be great and completely valid without some greedy fuckers trying to get everything for themselves. Communism would work without some greedy fuckers trying to get everything for themselves. Anarchism would work without... You get the jist.

Our problem is not politics, it's the human nature. No matter how many loving hippies there are, there are always going to be some people who try to exploit everything for their own good

olutukko , (edited )

Yes. A good slide show contains a lot of visually pleasing elements that are easy to read and understand but they still hold a lot of information. Like graphs or statistics or just bulletin points with some keywords or single short paragraohs that tell how it is in a nutshell. Then the one who makes the presentation should tell the rest

A good way would be to write an essay with all the information you need. Then you would strip just the most important main elements and add those to the slide show.

That way I got the best grade from one course even though I submitted it late and lacked a lot of other tasks in the course. The teacher was actually impressed by how much information I packed in so simple powerpoint. I also had like 20 sources, did it all in on afternoon the day before deadline lol. Adhd is interesting. You procastinate something for weeks and then do multiple days work in one crunch. Medication would be neat but I live in a country where you can't get medication even if you smoke weed.

Anyways. I don't know why I wrote all this. I should be programming

olutukko ,

School before realizing I have concentration problems was mysterious time. I juat didn't feel like doing stuff and I didn't know why.

Also yeah your teacher propably just thought that you would need extra work to understand the course. I had a teacher who actually told me that when he first started teaching me he thought I'm a bit dumb, a below average student. But then he came to realize that I'm actually really smart but I just don't do anything. It felt weird because at the same time I wad proud that a teacher actually said to me that I am smart. But at the same time I started wondering that why I indeed didn't do anything.

I'm going to finally get my meds though, I just have to piss in a jar to prove I'm not smoking weed for like half a year lol. But I have gotten to the point where I don't feel like it's going to be an issue. I'm about to turn 24, weed used to be my coping mechanism to a lot of stuff but I have matured now and I feel like a long break would just do really good. Also I want those meds cuz my school isn't going that well and I want to graduate and get a job already :D the courses aren't hard but I usually lose the motivation one montv in and after that trying to finish the course is insanely hard

olutukko ,

That does sound reallu peaceful compared to this. I bet it was even harder at you time of youth when people didn't understand the condition.

It's honestly really super weird nobody noticed that I might be a bit odd. Like I had alll the signs now that I recall. Even some stuff related to asperger. But I just went straight trough the filters

olutukko ,

My biggest pet peeve in internet is people who state something as a fact eve though they are just really confidently wrong

olutukko ,

I feel you. The internet experts are always to confident with information they have literally never fact checked. It's just based on something they head and assumptions.

Of course everyone falls on that sometimes because we can't possibly filter every single piece of information we get.

But some people start arguing back when they are corrected instead of just going to read about the subject to see which one is true and that is just so dumb

olutukko ,

That bad boy would do same damage

olutukko ,

I don't think so it seems to be just a stock photo. I don't see how using a stock photo as meme template is disresoectful lol

olutukko ,

Adobe deserves all the disrespect with their pricing

olutukko ,

Eh. To each to their own but flexing with your feats or lifestyle is pretty dumb anyways

olutukko ,

Exactly. Do what you enjoy. If it's work, then work

olutukko ,

If they eat like they would eat im nature. You know chewing meat around hard bones, constantly grinding their teeth. Then it would be unnecessary. If you however just serve soft stuff or dog food there isn't enough chewing and calculus starts to form if you don't brush the teeth

Edit: this isn't something I have source for. Just my own experiences with dogs and also human teeth need brushing for the same reason, we don't eat what we were designed to eat. So it's quite easy to make assumption that this is true for dogs too. And indeed when we fed our dog raw meat chunks with bone in it our dogs calculus went away pretty well and pretty fast

olutukko ,

To configure your active directories and stuff. Wouldn't it be great to automatize everything to the point that when something breaks you have no idea what to do because you have no idea what is done and where

olutukko ,

Type o negative was supposed to be subzero. They got band tattoos already when they found out there already is band called subzero so they had to think something that would fit the tattoos

olutukko ,

Can't we just move past the whole gay straight thing. We all like somethint and it's certainly almost never just black and white

olutukko ,

My favourite: when you wake up but your bed is somehow missing. I haven't been sleepwalking for ages but one time I woke up on a pile of cardboard when I was staying at my friend parents. I was in another floor also, in a section of their house I had never been. That was really confusing place to wake up. I even had carried my blanket with me downstairs.

olutukko ,

Pure, West.

olutukko ,

If I had a nickel every time I see meme that is just some anime characters with linux world logos slapped on them...

olutukko ,

I think the idea is that you'd think it would say some live laugh love shit like "this is a home" instead but nah it's just a house. So just parodying live love laugh crap

olutukko ,

You could also think iy from other point of view. Even the cheapest logitech controllers are so excellent you could use them in a submarine! /s

olutukko ,

Nah it's ilmatieteenlaitos forever for me

olutukko ,

Yeah because oc is going to find some exploit from the config file, inject it to the backup and then send it to some random guy on internet

olutukko ,

Ah gotcha. I tought I missed something😂

olutukko ,

I sure hope not

olutukko ,

Actuslly wine was closest thing to proton, play on linux was nothing but a front end for managing wine software

olutukko ,

Nah, I use sync. No svg version visible

olutukko ,

Looks like kolibri maybe. Or some other lightweight bird
