Global warming is upon us. If something doesn't drastically change, now, our entire species is going to die.

🎼The Internet is for porn!🎶

Jerboa has bad UX because it needs work. Official Reddit app has bad UX because the developer wants it that way.

No. Rejection of extremism does not imply acceptance of some other form of extremism.

Nazis. Reddit has so many Nazis.

Hate is mainstream politics now, sadly. So yes, not hating is political as well.

And yet, no one is rioting. Everyone is simply allowing this robbery to happen unchallenged.

The EU Cyber Resilience Act will effectively make open-source software illegal, and that sure as hell isn't pro-consumer. Neither is all the spooky surveillance and crippled cryptography they keep trying to mandate.

Brace yourselves. Porn is coming.

They reiterated that their goal “isn’t to kill 3rd party apps” – in fact, they said they were “confused” by claims that they want to do that

Who the hell do they think they're fooling?

If WD expects its drives to fail after 3 years, then WD is manufacturing shoddy products and it's time to change vendors.

Which is a real shame, because WD was until recently the gold standard of disk drive reliability. To my recollection, I've never seen a WD drive fail.

I've got a machine whose (Seagate, not WD) drives have been powered on for 14 years and they still aren't complaining. They're about to, though—their SMART reports only 1% service life left!

Leaving nothing but trolls, as expected. Reddit is already dead.

My feeling about Meta joining the Fediverse is: 🚨DANGER!🚨

Paging Streisand, paging Barbra Streisand. Your effect has arrived.

Debian. Several reasons:

• It's trustworthy.
• It's not going anywhere. Debian existed when I was a kid and it'll probably still exist when I draw my last breath.
• I know how to use it, since, once again, I've been using it since I was a kid.
• It has all the desktop environments.
• It fully supports systemd. I do not miss the unreliability, slowness, and complexity of what came before that. (Normally I wouldn't mention this, but your former distro of choice exists solely for the purpose of not having systemd, so it's relevant this time.)

People used to be able to afford homes, so yes, it definitely is happening.

Why is it that the hardest workers are the lowest paid?

Which makes them no different from the western imperialists they hate so much.

Isn’t “authoritarian communist” kind of an oxymoron?

Yes. Yes, it is. I sometimes call them “pseudocommunists” for this reason.

Rust isn't difficult to get right. JavaScript is difficult to get right. That's because Rust tells you when you get it wrong, and JavaScript doesn't.
