Software developer by day, insomniac by night.

    Feddit.org officially announces they will ban criticism of Israel and pro-Palestinian posts and comments.

  • It amuses me that expressing understanding with the retaliation is forbidden. I definitely understand why a militant extremist group has arisen after decades of oppression and genocide.

    Like, how do you negotiate your way out of that peacefully? Where in history has oppression on that level been defeated through diplomacy?

    I seem to have forgotten the part where the allies defeated Nazi Germany by asking nicely. Surely no war was fought for recognising black people as humans in the U.S.

    Perhaps Ukraine should put down their weapons and ask Russia to pretty please stop invading their country and killing their people.

    Ugh.

  • Everyone should be engaged in a union.

  • tell them you're sorry about it, but that you're grateful that you have the flexibility to do so

    What are they supposed to be sorry about?

  • If you have a USB stick you could just boot up a live CD of the operating system.

  • Even this can depend a lot. I’ve some friends that play that Marvel game (Rivals?) and it works great on Linux. I myself have played Monhan and Warframe a lot on Linux. I’m not much of a competitive player, and I think where you might run into problems is competitive live-service titles.

    Guild Wars and Final Fantasy XIV are both multiplayer games and work flawlessly for me.

    Some games might require some fiddling you might not have on Windows, but it’s not that bad.

    Even VR is pretty plug and play, though I’ve not bothered with FBT yet, and I think it differs a lot depending on what headset you have.

    OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. AMD CPU with NVidia graphics.

  • Yeah! Why the hell should they benefit from our public infrastructure if they don't pay their way? These are the actual parasites on society that the right wingers always claim to be so worried about.

  • Those aren’t the D-words I would use.

  • Was thinking perhaps Rosetta Stone, they're old and well-established, and while I've not read through their privacy policy on account of being dead tired at the moment, at a glance it looks digestible.

    But then I noticed that they don't do Danish.

    Though maybe we're too app focused. Denmark has some really good children's books authors, H.C. Andersen is classic, most people probably know him through his work "Den Lille Havfrue", or at least the Disnep adaptation, "The Little Mermaid." For pronunciation my favourite method is singing and mimicking. I enjoy the mouthfeel of other languages, though admittedly Danish is incredibly difficult as the sounds are so different from Swedish.

  • Waste of silicone. I shan't type out what he really deserves because of the rules, so let your imagination fill in the blank.

  • Ooh. Perfection. 🥺

  • I'm here for the shade thrown in the comments, haha.

  • Swedes do this with Spain. Then they complain that it’s not Swedish enough. Hella weird.

  • Yeah. They keep doing that. Sweden is very gung-ho about fucking up privacy.

  • Thank you. Tried visiting the archive page but it blocked me and ironically enough wanted me to solve a captcha that’ll be used to train “AI.”

  • Amazon is barely a thing here in Sweden. It’s niche drop shipped garbage for the most part, very similar to Wish and the like.

    They have some non-garbage stuff at the same price you find elsewhere.

    They also don’t do logistics here. Utterly useless company.

  • Hah! I love that!

  • BREAKING: Musk’s Arsehole-to-Mouth Pipeline Hits Peak Efficiency—Verbal Diarrhoea blasting at Unprecedented Volumes.

    Once more Musk showcases a supreme lack of knowledge. If not for empathy we wouldn't even have civilisation. Empathy is the social glue that keeps us together. It's through empathy and cooperation that communities and societies form.

  • Nice! One learns something new every day.

    For the linguistics nerds, "dög" is past tense of "duga."Det får duga - It will have to do.Det duger - It is good enough.Det dög - It was sufficient.

  • Dög in Swedish means "sufficed" or "good enough", so while the assembly might not be correct, it's good enough.

  • I don't think we should be satisfied until they go bankrupt. When they do, their cars and their charger network will likely cease to function properly. Perhaps that could force some legislation against bullshit online-only cloud service practices for products like these.
