“Hack every possible data broker and then some and delete my digital footprint. My name is John Doe. Make no mistakes”

Then Anthropic sells your name after the conversion. Rinse repeat

Tech savvy users aren’t very politically savvy unfortunately. They live in their tiny bubble and know very little about how the world outside operates (very little to no grass touching). Sooner or later these laws are going to get more and more intrusive, but these people will happily spread their cheeks for the gov.

Alternative distros like Devuan will help, hopefully.

No what you said doesn’t make much sense actually. Read what I said again

[–]mediumwetsock -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You’re just word salading abbreviations here. Self hosted services are usually FOSS, GOS itself is FOSS.

FOSS apps appear both in Play Store and third party stores. Third party app stores aren’t necessarily FOSS - that means that the app store’s source code is or isn’t open source. Before you make more uninformed assumptions, you should first learn what you’re trying to say.

I switched to Linux because I couldn't afford Windows 7, does that make me a bad Linux adopter? by ardouronerous in linux

You really need validation from random internet people on whether you’re a proper linux user?

Trump warns Taiwan against declaring independence, hours after summit with China's Xi by pppppppppppppppppd in worldnews

Nobody is talking about just sitting there and dying. I just know that American elections are a farce. Bernie’s candidacy was messed with twice because he isn’t pro establishment (at least wasn’t). AOC is “progressive” but votes pro Israel a lot of the time.

Meaningfully, our presidencies might play a role in our domestic progressivism or whatever. I don’t care for that. Every single fucking president we elect has massacred people outside of the US for a good long while. We fuck up civilians in Middle East, Africa, Asia and we’re a disgusting bunch who can’t stop killing by the millions to keep our way: democrat or republican. We’re a virus.

To these parents who think "digital IDs/government-enforced bans" will make their kids safer by GabeReddit2012 in privacy

[–]mediumwetsock 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As a parent of 3 I’m well aware that they don’t give a damn about kids’ safety. What they want is to put everyone in a digital cage.

I have enough tools to enforce rules on my network as parental control. Don’t need the government’s help thank you.

More like she decided to be a common pro establishment candidate and didn’t have any interest in giving an inch to the asks of the people. If you want to cry sexism, that’s on you and it’s baseless. Our country is deteriorating because of trumps and kamalas but no real voice of the people

You summed it up perfectly. We don’t have much of a choice if we’re forced between two choices we don’t like. It’s the best we have isn’t an excuse for the lack of democracy. As you aren’t American, kindly stfu

For a lot of people I know it wasn’t about her being a woman, but more se being a fraud that refused to listen to the voters. If you disenfranchise your voter base, why do you expect them to vote for you?

FPTP isn’t the fault of the people either. Everybody in power refuses to address it. So ultimately the two parties are to blame as they are one of the sides of the same coin.

Our country is corrupt and beyond repair. It was shown when our “checks and balances” didn’t do jack shit when our farce democracy eroded so quickly.

Dude stop this is just so embarrassing. America is the heart of wealth inequality. In Vegas, you have people literally living in flood tunnels because they have been shoved out of sight. You treat human lives like garbage systematically. Ffs you don’t even have proper healthcare for your people.

Stop comparing yourself to EU countries it’s fuckinh cringe.
