yea, and also when compared to literally drinking poison or shooting yourself to the head. What does it matter regarding the issue at hand if there are other things that are also bad? What would you compare the cosmetica to when its time to consider the bad stuff that causes?
“safe” level does not mean ineffective level. Maybe its not danger to health but it can still cause something bad. Maybe it accumulates in time, maybe it cases changes in the body that cause something slight that you wouldnt even think to link to this.
see it as it is; full of shitty people with maybe some decent ones sprinkled here and there, owned by even shittier people. How ever it is now, it will get worse in future. Sooner you get off, easier time you will have since eventually it will get to the point you have to leave or just accept everything and hate yourself for it.
Develop some contempt towards corporations in general -> it goes long way to help resist their bullshit.
Expectation to spend money sidelines all the people who cant afford it. Its not nice to sit somewhere and watch everyone else buying stuff and knowing you yourself cant.
Third spaces = freedom to come and go and stay as you please.
Try going to some cafe and never buy anything at all, but spend entire day there. See how it goes for you.
one thing i have noticed here is that often people will engage in actually productive discussion even if they disagree. I also welcome being corrected, often that is the best thing here since it lets me actually learn/correct something with my thoughts.
to me, gnome seems to be just bad ui design for people with stockholm syndrome about it.
using and trusting llm at all for something like this is the crime here…
but then again, maybe this is just test run for taking away “unwanted” people, using handily mistaken facial recognition as excuse. If cases like this start happening more its propably that, and if they start happening enough people will lose interest and it wont be covere by media so much anymore. And after that they have neat system where they can capture anyone they want and can claim “mistake” if they get caught.
only “job offers” i have had from linkedin were literal scams. As in, “buy your own tools”. Sickening. And after hearing how people behave in linkedin and what kind of stuff they post… I would rather swim in real cesspool than use that filth.
so much for “do no harm”. that “doctor” should have their licence taken away
blaming? shouldnt they have celebrated how much people utilize their beloved slopmachines?
they should reply with their own decapitation strike.
though its kind of spineless of the people to rely on outside forces to do it.
be more vocal about how shitty this kind of behavior is and show support to those who are vocal about it.
If small loud minority can have effect on things, loud majority has big effect. It could for example lead to having protections against this because politicans would start to feel like their position is threatened if they dont, and if enough people care then they actually might be.
Just showing that you care about anything will have an effect even if people dont show it, because others will see that you care and if even one of those people also gets inspired by it you have done well. This is why its important to attend rallies too imo, even if you think it doesnt change anything. This is also why authorities want to suppress even peaceful rallies.
What does it even cost to you to be vocal about something that is wrong? People do it all the time about stupid things too, so why not do it for things that might benefit you?
And i dont mean be vocal just about this particular tv brand pushing ads all the time. i think its obvious but i have noticed it apparently isnt often.
i wish people were less tolerating about this shit. most likely users of those tvs will grumble a little at first and then just accept and eventually disparage anyone for speaking against it.
people should get way more angry about this publicly.
just think about how things used to be 50 or 100 years ago. Having a huge scandal could actually end someones career or put down a company. Now there is nothing shitty people and companies can’t do because everyone is so apathetic they wouldnt care if they themselves are the victim.
being asshole towards less technically adept people about linux should become something that gets you seriously shamed and even ostracized if it continues. that kind of behavior hurts ALL of us by reducing popularity of linux and this reducing developer interest in supporting linux, which also means less drivers for critical components which in turn might mean your pc just cant utilize linux.
Personally, i have issue of internet getting randomly cut off due to too old drivers for my network adapter/chipset/not sure. The motherboard i use is one of the latest there is.
This issue has apparently persisted for years now, according to forum posts about it. So i’m directly suffering from linux not being popular enough.
-> Someone else would just return to windows because this is quite insuffreable even for me. But personally i’m happier with malfunctioning linux system than correctly working windows.
we cant give in to the thinkers!
all they do is demonstrate why no game should use licensed music ever. cant stream of make videos of those games either without having to worry about this shit.
pour superglue on them so everything stays put, pour solvent when you want to take them off
Most likely if you wanted to generate qr code that looks like swastika, you would have to input very specific letter nonesense to do it. Its very specific scenario and just pointless waste of manhours to prevent it, when someone who would want to generate such qr code would just do something else if prevented.
can’t logic someone out of somewhere they didnt logic themselves in.
So first try to understand how your friend feels and what is really going on with them.
I see, then that is indeed part of the problem. If that isnt addressed then it could be used as excuse to not do anything to this problem too. Sorry, your comment just came off as whataboutism
