Bigger is always better. For hardware.

On the other hand, less is always more for software.

Might as well bump it to 64 GB and an LLM chip since in 5 years’ time people might like Copilot & Friends spying a bit less on them.

What do you mean it’s not a review?

If a congressional comitee and a few invitees (such as POTUS) reviewing golf clubs together in a courtroom isn’t a judicial review, I don’t know what is.

Ads? Privacy popups? Newsletter popups? Autoplay self-resizing videos?

Sure, coming across a site that does all is luckily not too easy.

At least I don’t remember it being back when I raw-dogged the web.

Toolbars were a user choice and most weren’t rootkits, so you could disable them from a standardized browser interface or like any other app on your system.

Can you do such a thing with the modern stuff on Chrome or vanilla Firefox?

Neither is molesting them enough for a “get into jail free card” or at least a “get impeached free card”, seeing all the people on The List.

Politics is the science and art of organizing, constituting and managing

If politics is the art and science of anything, that something is spreading corruption and attaining personal gain at thr cost of general society.

Sure, everyone imprisoned is a prisoner under international law, but I assume Susan is aiming her comment at an america-centric audience.

I think large enough parts of Lemmy get the disproportionate news titling from “credible” news orgs such as NYT reading along the lines of “30 dead in Gaza building collapse” vs. “2 mothers brutally murdered in Tel Aviv during new wave of terror bombing”

Are we really going to knitpick on Susan for calling them “not prisoners” because they’re not imprisoned like the average peacetime prisoner: with at least a resemblance of a due process?

This is where a man page comes in but alas, but some (perhaps even most) of them are fucking horrible. The core incantation is either too dumbed-down or (more often) too long-winded.

Some good ones I can praise are netcat, ghostscript and 7z. Special praise goes to the Library Funtions Manual entries like signal and exit.

Bad ones ones in my book are vim (too short), ffmpeg (a simple reordering of sections would make it quite a bit better, like moving the less common flags lower down the page) and git starts of strong but ends up being way too detailed and unstructured.

I could go listing examples for days, so I might as well stop now.

Well, of course anything he does has to be strong as he can’t seem weak in front of his somehow-still-existing sheep heard.

The irony is, the more you attempt to dehumanize others, you only dehumanize yourself.

And that’s precisely why the “Only good fascist dead fascist” mantra doesn’t go against basic human rights!

Well, duh. Do you think Mother Nature won’t “hold” new generations “accountable” once ours destroy the planet with fossil fuels?

Less speedrunning, more maxing out the score.

To be honest, even this seems like a step in the right direction, as they’re direct and transparent about exactly what they use. Sure, it should be normal, and those toggle popups with a “Reject All” that does not cover everything (usually strategically leaving “legitimate interest” be) should rot in bankrupcy after a fine. Without large and sure fines, it’s the cost of doing (profitable) business.

Hopefully, eYou will see the good aspects of not using invasive tracking tech, especially america-based black boxes.

I mean, if someone is responsible enough to brethalyze themselves, they should also be responsible enough to not drive. Hooking the brethalyzer up to the car to disable it seems like a terrible idea.

Deoending on the way it’s implemented, a bad one could brick a car for hours if someone drunk tries it, but there are perfectly sober people who could drive. Or y’know, this shit with someone coming on and remotely disabling things all willy-nilly.

Even if you do put healthcare on the hands of for-profit, it could work, what with the high demand and hospitals being big players, meaning they have scale, a big prerequisite for lowering price.

At least for the “common” ailments.

That being said, there’s no competition, the only true capitalist prerequisite for capitalism working.

So basically, capitalist healthcare could work, but US healthcare is basically as late-stage as capitalism could get, so alas - no.

Olive oil?

In american cars?

Clearly american mucscle cars require maple syrup!

Being an “ass” is one thing (making conflicts like it’s yoir job).

Paying people preferentially because you and a couple of your buddies like them a bit (bonus points if you spend private time together as well) should be about 3 red flags for everyone involved.

Tbh, “company policy” are magical words.

I assume if something illegal gets labeled as “Company Policy” (even though it isn’t), the company should immediately be held accountable regardless - so terrible managers don’t get to throw those two words around as a magic shield to protect themselves from employees being cognitively indisonant, unlike their perfect selves.

Wait, are you telling me…

…that a device meant to disable a vehicle…

…was used to disable a vehicle?

Whould’ve thought?

It isn’t.

All of us were laymen at one point.

I still am, for one.

What I see big apps do is treat users (both power, regular and new ones) as idiots, ruining the experience for everyone. Users should be treated reasonavly as reasonable people. This means giving them the options and opportunity to become power users, as opposed to saying “yeah, that’ll never fly with them” and then you’re the one to shoot all of them down preemptively.

Violentmonkey is simple enough to install as an add-on, and clicking “Get a Script” requires no coding background.

So yeah. Impossible for utter idiots.

Which users are not.

They’re reasonable people like you and me, and giving them the opportunity to know about Violentmonkey and what it does should be more enough for them to use.
