  • rethinks ability to compete with netflix

    Yeah, I canceled my subscription like 2 years ago, loosing my prize of 30% discount in the process (it was a thing since I had HBO GO). I don't know if it's a regional thing but there was just nothing new or interresting there. I remember just constant superheroes and Harry Potter. Went for Netflix and never looked back. So, good luck I guess, hopefully they change

  • Maybe I'm dumb but I had a hard time to grasp what it is actually. I guess I imagine something different behind the word "cloud". A "platform" or "ecosystem" sounds more fitting to me

    But especially photos storing sounds kind of extreme for small opensource project like this, do you have a storage for all those data? That could be huge

    Also is the project itself open source? I can't find the repository

    And a security would be a huge topic for me for platform like that

    Anyway, I guess I have to give it a try and a lot of my questions will clear up

  • 🍔🍔🍔🇺🇲🤘🎉

  • Holy fuck, is that a H&K G3? Are those still used?

  • Pfff I know all about the aptitude, who do you think I am? Someone who doesn't know the aptitude? I use it all the time for a lot of ... stuff the aptitude does

  • Now calm down, Ned-dily-diddly-diddly-diddly... they did their best, shoddily-iddly-iddly-diddly... gotta be nice, hostily-iddly-diddly-iddly...Ah hell diddly-ding-dong-crap! Can't you morons do anything right?

  • Also if your wife enjoys being fucked, she might be a spiritual gay man. And do you know how we call people who fuck gay men?

  • I'm jumping into downvote pool but yolo - I kind of like Bill Maher. I don't agree with him on everything, let's say I disagree with like 30% of his points. But rest of it is kind of on point? And that's fine, I don't have to agree with people on everything. Actually that's one of the points I liked from him - to learn to disagree. In today's polarized world that's a surprisingly refreshing idea. On the other hand I fundamentally disagree with him on Covid-19. So yeah. Also I find myself laughing at his jokes quite a lot, he has good writers imo

  • to perpetuate backwards gender roles

    I never even suggested that. Where did you get that from? All I'm saying is, people in power aren't your friends.

    Although is it a good thing that me and my wife work like crazy to keep our family going? Is this really what life is about? I'd love to be stay at home dad, yet I can't

  • I literally said it's a positive thing, just that motivation of people in power is cynical. Also I didn't mention communism, I meant it in general regardless of regime

  • Maybe a bad choice of words on my part, maybe I should write "not because it's right, but because it doubles the workforce"

    Although whether "double the workforce" is good or bad, I'd keep that for a discussion, see my other comment for more info: https://lemmy.world/comment/16185467

  • Sorry for late response and I see the comment is now deleted by a mod but whatever (well we're on .ml after all).

    What I was trying to point out, was the "cynical" part of it. That people in power often don't do it because they want to empower women or help people, more often than not it's just that it brings more people into their "meat grinder" - regardless of the regime. In case of capitalism it's obvious but it doesn't need to be money necessarily; in the case of Stalin - pardon me if I don't believe that he did it for "supporting women rights and making the world a better place ✌️", he did it for the raw economic power to compete with US during cold war and so his own country wouldn't collapse because of his stupid actions.

    Whether doubling the workforce is a good thing - that I'd keep up for a debate. I deliberately didn't want to say anything in that area, I'm just saying that the motivation of people in power is cynical, not saying if result is good or bad.

    But if you'd want my personal stance - I do believe that in order to achieve welfare/prosperity, not all the people have to work. And I do believe that there are more important things in life than working. I'd love to be a stay at home dad, but I can't. Even though my country sort of supports it, my pay would cut dramatically and we as a family wouldn't be able to survive.

    But honestly thank you for asking. It's very refreshing to meet a person who asks and tries to understand the motivation of the commenter rather than jumping right to the conclusion (as almost every other response here)

  • Oh! I didn't know it has a latin origin. Then I guess it makes sense but still ...

  • Sigh, I have just one problem with Tuta - why such a stupid, stupid name?! I can already imagine myself on the phone saying "yes, T. U. T. A. Tuta dot com"

  • Thank you, I know lemmy is left leaning and so am I but let's not lose our touch with reality here. People can downvote as much as they want but I'd say you're objectively right. Or does anyone want to place some counter argument instead of downvoting? Because I can't think of any

  • Oh c'mon, I consider myself to be on the left but this is a strawman and you know it

    Edit: if you want this to be more accurate then add this at the end of far left section: "at all cost. And I mean ALL cost.". And reminder, we're talking about FAR left here
