If someone paid for people to stay home I’m sure they would. It’s not like it’s feasible to not have the job and still pay for the house and food.

That’s how I read it first time, I don’t see how it’s misleading. I think everyone knows that Windows isn’t ready for the desktop.

Over 18, but still young enough to not be predestined to become like the other billionaires I guess.

Oh yeah, of course, but it feels like it’s never part of the conversation, even among people whose opinions I respect and are, for example, super critical of AI and talking about enshittification and other issues in the online sphere, they never seem to take the step to check out Linux, or get off Twitter or whatever.

Yeah, very disappointed by RMS’ creepiness (the Epstein stuff isn’t the only thing), but he was 100% right about software freedom.

I can see Microsoft moving to the same sort of thinking as well. Apple already made Mac OS users jump through hoops when you want to install something from the internet or even through a third party package manager like homebrew.

And the open source movement is such a blind spot to the ‘left’ as well, even though technology freedom is critical if you want to be able to organise any type of resistance in the digital space.

Lemmy users largely get it, obviously, but centre left people will happily let themselves get locked into the Apple/Google walled gardens even though you’re just giving that company a ridiculous amount of power over you.

I mean, you could probably use them that way, but there’s no indication that they were planning on doing that. One of those devices is only ~$3000, so if you want to spam all of New York and the upside is a bunch of people sending you their life savings it’s not exactly an investment that’s out of reach for your average crime syndicate.

State actors would probably hack into the Telco systems themselves instead, which you can do without needing to be on the ground. Or they’d keep their DDoS device in their embassy and do it from there.

This looks like the gear normally used by gangs that do text spam scams, what makes this exactly out of the range for a run of the mill criminal syndicate? Unless they have some other information that they’re not sharing?

Distinction without a difference. If you’re wearing the space diaper you’re basically experiencing everything there is to experience about space.

Definitely sounds like something he’d say.

Or get pulled out of your tank by Hamas only for the IDF to try to kill you so you’re not an extra hostage.

Could be a real headline, honestly.

Yeah, really confused about this setup. It looks too small for a full adult as well? And no sign of sheets and pillows.

Or do something about the root causes of crime. Sure, there’s like a minority of sociopaths that will choose a life of crime no matter what, but the majority of it can be avoided by stuff like investments in education, jobs with good pay and safe third places for youth. But all those things are woke and it can take years for the benefits to show, so governments aren’t doing those things.

Classic victim blaming.

Should be a law that forces anyone that defends slavery to be sold into slavery.

They usually go with ‘men of military age’, which is an age range of 16 to 65, to pad their numbers of Hamas.

Also, once you finish your filesystem, don’t murder your wife or otherwise people will stop using it.

There’s also ways to support ext3-4 on windows as well. And FUSE is also very interesting as it shows you what kind of esoteric stuff can be mapped onto a fake file system.
