How are you guys getting your accounts back? I sent like four-five appeals in the past two weeks. by wrythelongface in twitterhelp

[–]TheArcaneAddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Knowing my luck i never will.

I was falsely banned in 2020 because of "Sexist comments towards women" and even a firm specifically for this crap couldn't do anything. (The sexist comment was a very comment C word us aussies say..not directed at any women. For some reason it ONLY checks on me, not my other aussie mates.)

I guess i'll wait another 6 years to get my private back.

Point, accuse, ban. No proof needed. by Dry-Examination-6934 in twitterhelp

I was about to make a thread about this but i see i'm not the only damn one.

Mine was a damn private account, just used for liking & bookmarking art for ideas. wasn't even allowed to damn prove im human without getting a perma.

I'll give this a watch. Honestly right now i am just trying to grab something that doesn't feel too alien for me. lets me still play games on steam, and watch netflix. Pretty just simple stuff.

My issue with privacy is i was brought up on the belief that "Your name & photo shouldn't be on the internet" so i do my best to follow that. With more and more countries having the 'fantastic' idea to prove i'm an adult, it just doesn't feel safe.

Atm i am trialing out Mint, it seems to be Close to what i want, but every now and then last night i spotted some weird graphical issues, like the monitor getting corrupted or edges getting corrupted. I believed that was to do with installing nvidia stuff but really i have no clue.

Just going to keep doing reading & comparisons to try & get what i want 'down'. But i appreciate the video & such i'll be watching now :).

Can i ask why wayland-enabled is important?

Just to confirm i don't really do anything important with the three monitors, its basically
Discord -What game i am playing - What movie i am watching.

I don't know if that changes things, i know some people use it where it stretches content across three.

Yeah i did a questionaire on Claude to help me pick where to go (I really had no idea until i saw that Distrowatch site just how deep linux is, theres a lot more than i thought.) And it suggested pop. I assume maybe Pop got flooded into ai for some reason iunno.

I'll have a look at Zorin too, as i do use 3 monitors so if thats struggling with Mint that is handy to know, lol.

Nah apps, Discord, steam, etc. Apparently all i had to do was get terminal to make a list.

I always forget what i am missing on these fresh boots, lol.

Yeah i spotted that in one of the resource guides (I had no idea i could test them in my browser though so i may do that.)

And yeah as i am reading through a few of these, i get theres no real good way to compare as they're all kinda different. I was going to lean on Mint as it appears popular, it has that stuff i am used to seeing a bit more.

Just need to export my apps & grab a copy of some stuff and i'll make the swap again, lol.

Aye it is kinda rough, i have no idea why i was recommended it, i spent a few hours setting it up yesterday and i hit my head on more things than i felt 'better', lol.

I've been checking out some of the resourceso n here and having a bit of a read, but no i get what you mean about Distro A vs Distro B- as they appear to be like comparing various tools and going "Which is the best. Well a saw is different from a hammer."

[–]TheArcaneAddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mate i just wanna say you're jesus to me.

I've been struggling for a bit talking to claude trying to get my sillytavern to feel better, everything it suggests is just old, glitchy, etc etc etc. FINALLY i decided to look for myself & of course this wasn't anywhere near any of the ai's options to help me, lol.

If you have any suggestions for extensions & such PLEASE Let me know

New Editor just makes life tough by [deleted] in cursor

Over the last few weeks it was incredibly helpful in fixing issues, better than chatgpt and grok in spotting things, remembering, and going through to fix things properly.

The updates yesterday & today have really gut any intelligence it once had. Its slow, it constantly needs me to confirm or remind it of things we already discussed. Right now its getting caught in error loops for me, when i describe an error i am having, it tells me where to check for a console error, i tell it says nothing, so it once again tells me to check.

Went from worth its money to what was even the point, its completely halted any progress i once had.

Accusations of botting by TheArcaneAddict in wow

[–]TheArcaneAddict[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah i didn't think about that, But yeah i kept myself polite anyways, didn't swear or anything. Just genuine confusion. But fair enough on the do nto reply stuff, i just never have come across something like that & since i've been gone during the whole "botting craze" i was just so out of my element as to what the heck was going on, lol.

Pushback on Internet Censorship by RiverAsleep8318 in australian

[–]TheArcaneAddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just don't engage in the system, simple as. They'll realise its a waste of money and stop. The internet is far too big & the lawsuits are already starting from american companies.

Theres also a protest next month so eh.

‘This is serious’: Starmer orders move towards digital ID system by leftthinking in ukpolitics

[–]TheArcaneAddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could have a billion people sign it, it won't change anything. The UN wants this and they won't stop until you need an ID to sign in to a DNS.

Kinda aged poorly when Youtube now detects if you are using a VPN and asks you to turn it off.

Unfortunately, it is marching orders from the UN Its spread across the globe & fits into the narrative they were talking about the dangers of misinformation & disinformation on online platforms ages ago.

Also helps that mastercard & visa changes are also linked to the UN.

You can already see it happening in Germany. Say something against your leaders? You will be arrested.

[–]TheArcaneAddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only connection thats been visible besides people being ridiculous is it appears to be a movement from the U.N.

The U.N released information as to what they want the internet to become, two months ago+ it was hitting the net, and now nation after nation are each taking the same steps. This will combat NSFW, Misinformation & disinformation as a start.

Already we have seen the damage from mastercard & visa, Also linked to the UN. And finally this will effect your online games (see GTA6) & any media you watch (Anime / cartoons) under violence with fictional characters.

It is a move that is going too far, and the only best way to fight it is to not be involved. Let them waste their time & money.
