you will own nothing and you will be happy.

context: this meme is 3 years old. think about what everyone including that gentleman in the back did to protect everyone around them.

"voting AfD is so 1933"

lol

always buy the more expensive ones with the foreskin.

that's how.

one of the 3 LEDs can have 256 levels of brightness (off included)

take that to the power of three, and you have 16 million colours.

but no mortal can actually tell the difference between 255, 255, 255 and 255, 254, 255.

oh my god, this (basically culture war) is so hard to witness as a european.

just use signal for god's sake.

who knew that an impossibly cheap computer was harvesting your data with a butchered open source operating system with a lot of closed-source stuff added to it?

sounds familiar...

and the naming scheme doesn't make it any better, "USB 3.2 Gen 3 with USB PD and/or CuickCharge" just doesn't make sense to rationally thinking people.

how about "USB C-C up to X amount of mbytes and 100W charging"?

we're all going a little crazy, but this is just the right kind of insane. make it run pong with powerpoint controls next please.

cough healthcare cough

a good product is the best advertising. make linux usable as a daily driver, and people come flowing in from the shithole that is windows.

i've always been fascinated how american cops just erupt into chaos whenever something did't go how they wanted it to, despite not telling the person what they wanted them to do.

and then be confused why people anre't following orders when shouting conflicting commands from 3 different officers with a dog barking uncontrollably in the background.

thank god the police takes itself more seriously where i live.

"the land of the free"

we have nailed 2D printers. enshittification in the name of profits ruined them. i recommed epson eco-tank printers by the way. no subscription and one 10€ bottle lasts for hundreds of pages.

so if you didn't know, humans need sleep. and lucid dreams are more being awake than being asleep neurologically speaking.

so this company wants people to basically stay awake 24/7. sure, that's gonna work out just fine. no problems here.

how would we be?

i'm gonna list a few things:

• war in europe
• genocide in gaza
• everything is a subscription
• appliances are made to fail now
• phone manufacturers blindly follow apple's horrible decisions
• housing market is going to hell
• general enshittification of every service
• cars are getting worse every day, be it the phasing out of ICEs in favour of EVs that have no hope of lasting even 20 years (that one may be fixed until 2035), the general reliability problems or the ugly designs.
• Windows is actively getting more invasive and even less private, although linux is looking very promising
• the political right is getting more drastic, and it seems to be working for them

edit:

• global warming, i forgor

i am not surprised

time to hook an old pc running linux up to that bad boy. while you're at it, maybe set up a NAS. they can't get to you on open source software!

in a fair world, all of these companies who abuse the GPL license woild get sued and have to face actual consequences. but the legal system favors the rich, and the FOSS dev is left to starve. killed by their own passion.

my cat's name is basically pronounced "cookie", but gets spelled kouki. found it a pretty interesting name because it means hope and/or happines depending on how you write it, it fit pretty well because i got him to help with my depression. and i think it worked pretty well. he is also very handsome.

publicly trade companies? the ones purely focused on profit? yup, hate 'em
