Don't wanna be that guy but this article is a tad bit misleading. 13 euros for a plane ticket is an anomaly and probably due to governments funding airlines to encourage tourism to their countries.

That said, a couple hours on a rickety Ryanair for <13 euros beats buying a bunch of train tickets and the stress involved. Downside is missing out on getting to stop in some cool places and see some pretty sights with comfy leg room. (Also trains are more efficient due to the amount of people boarding)

Yep… Bought Sync and Apollo long ago. Moved to Lemmy today. Slowly moving all of my main socials to decentralized/federated platforms because the greedy corpos breaking their own shit.

It's guaranteed that they'll use their instance to datamine and further build profiles on people in other federated instances as well.

I don't trust them at all with their handling of data besides their ability to track people who aren't even on their platforms. Also it's almost impossible to reach out to them unless you buy their shitty VR headset, as you will find out if someone ever fraudulently takes your account to buy ads with your money and gets your FB account banned.

Fuck the Zuck.

I agree 100% 7zip is the shit. Just the old "buy Winrar" joke, ya know?

Same way I do it. If I enjoy Stray or Winrar enough or long enough, I always[1] buy. Even bought a Sylenth1.

[1] Fuck yearly repackaged sports games, Adobe etc.

If I'm feelin' fancy, I'll break out the WD-40 Specialist Silicone

Oh.... You know. Hehehe

Damn. This is basically one of 2 reasons I still dual boot. My Studio One 5 install and FiveM. Gave me one less reason to keep Windows around.

It's almost certainly redcurrant and please don't eat random plants without certainty.

Looks a bit like a golden orb weaver. I love these spiders. Even though my wife has arachnophobia I always wanted to show them to her because they're so cool but I know she'd hate it. Haha

Most likely. I see many satirical or ironic jokes go over many heads here.

Always harder to take a privacy forward approach but the more people adopt it, hopefully all the more who see and also come over.

Here in Sweden they own many common brands too without disclosing on the packaging. Wasa knäckebröd, Zoégas Kaffe, The Body Shop (listed in image), Åhusglass, etc just to name a few.

I'd recommend setting one's own browser to automatically redirect to old.reddit.com for the occasion they might need to find that rare technical solution/see sum tiddies.

Linux has come a long way with gaming fortunately. I daily drive fedora and use Proton-GE/Wine-GE and can play most games with the exception of some problem ones (Assetto Corsa & Rust, I'm looking at you).

Only time I ever fool with W11 these days is when I use Studio One for music or play on of the (very few) problem games some friends want me to join them on. I'd recommend checking out the Nobara distro for games.

Not surprising OSX is a better Windows in some ways. Switched to iPhone last summer for my daily driver and don't regret it. Best mobile experience I've had since my custom ROMs days on Android. Even started out setting up app folders to copy my Nova Launcher setup. That said, I'll be excited when more privacy respecting options come around to the mobile market for my next phone.

I've had pretty good luck with the random kitchen accouterment or phone case from Aliexpress but probably due to marketing, Temu seems to have overwhelmed several countries' postal systems so I'll also be steering clear. These companies (amazon included) all massively contribute to exploitation though so I wouldn't recommend going hog wild on them with 100 orders of random shit.

Just turns out that it's really cheap to make various types of garbage in China and ship it the cheapest possible way that takes 1+ months to arrive. Many of these products lack fancy packaging and marketing as well which also slashes costs.

We all lose.
