  • That is what I said, yes.

  • It's not, but that doesn't make your argument any more sensible.

  • Hear me out: parents are irresponsible, and also can't watch their kids 24/7

  • Sorry I used the improper pronouns while assuaging your concerns and answering your query. I promise it won't happen again.

  • I think banning a topic because you don't like it is not fair for everyone else

    It's not just them. A lot of us don't like it. The rules don't exist to appease everyone but to make a "good" community, whatever that means in the eyes of the moderators. So it's a valid suggestion.

    It is already used and part in many sections in our life

    No it's absolutely not.

    I mean would you rather like it being silently used

    They can use it and talk about it somewhere else.

    I don't understand why you want to ban it for everyone.

    Because it's fucking everywhere and it's fucking infuriating and it's fucking dogshit. Corporations are stealing from creators and publishers, driving up costs of electricity, water, and electronic hardware across the board, unleashing DDoS attacks on the entire internet, creating an economic bubble the size of which the world has never seen, and inevitably going to lead to the destruction of the global economy, all in the pursuit of what? Spreading disinformation and sexual abuse? The damage AI is unleashing on the world cannot be overstated...

    The absolute least we can do is stop perpetuating it on our little space on the internet.

  • Have you not also noticed a dramatic increase in instability of platforms like Windows, AWS and Cloudflare?

  • Brother, you are in the club of cranky old wizards. We are all in the same boat. We reject these things not because we are old but because we are cursed with knowledge.

    That aside, Lawnchair seems to be the go-to replacement, although not nearly as good.

  • They said "possible someday", not "possible currently".

  • That's not true. You can still get dedicated cameras that are much worse.

  • Doesn't matter how many spare parts you can get if the device simply refuses to function after replacing them.

  • They're all slow. People will tell you they're not. Those people are lying to you. I run Tuwunnel. Still slow.

    Try Stoat.

  • Fuuuuuuck 😭

  • Install Heroic. Log into GOG account from Heroic. Go into settings and click "automatically add games to Steam". Click install. Exit and go back into Steam. Click launch. Cross your fingers.

  • If only...

  • Jail? No one's even going to lecture them. This is just an everyday occurrence these days and no one cares.

  • The idea is simple but bold. The next Xbox would run a TV‑first console interface by default, but underneath, it’s essentially a full Windows machine capable of running Xbox titles

    So pretty much what we all expected?

  • They updated OMEMO

  • Yep. No such thing as perfect but I think SimpleX is the closest thing. Biggest problems there being dropped messages, no UnifiedPush, VC funding, and an alt-right developer.
