I haven’t been on reddit for over a year, but I cannot imagine that topics like say atheism don’t polarise. What makes you think it is the case?

This is quite an individualist mindset; I was mainly talking about YT Trends-type of music - music likely listened to by millions, shaping the minds of millions.

Have you seen music lyrics? They’re full of advertisements.

People pride themselves to be walking billboards. I think it somewhat resembles wearing the coat of arms of your lord in the millennia before.

Radical disinformation is death, because matter itself already is information.

Try to make breakfast without encountering information.

I don’t know. I only attended two month years ago and then got different life problems.

Computer Science in Germany often includes C and Haskell, ie Imperative and Functional Languages, at the beginning.

I never interacted with mozilla.social, but I wonder if they considered organising mozilla.social through a connected volunteer association, before deciding to shutdown.

From the comments I see, feddit.uk seems to have the lowest unit costs with 11 pennce.

No, votes should not be displayed public.

Blocking those who downvote creates further polarisation, echo chambers and an environment more hostile to discussion and honest exchange.

Following those who upvote creates personality cults and nepotism and devalues the content.

I’m saying this for years, but a) it’s quite late (seems like a 1990s issue) and b) OpenNIC is a bit of a joke atm (but support it anyways)

ICANN never should’ve been a creature of US-NTIA, but of the UN. The US has no right to decide for the digital world how everyone communiticates. No one really should (apart from about stuff like CSAM).

not all people deflate (traditional) intimate relationships into communistic sex work.

difference is you can operate a sex-for-everyone-booth or have sex with someone you deeply trust, know and care about (gf).

(i also hope that you don’t assume the readers are all heterosexual men, because then you would have much bigger problems with your gender politics)

Say Plasma “breaks” - a wiki will not help fast enough.

I’m not trying to defend rolling release for a gaming console, but give me at least the option to decide for myself whether I’m ok with breakage or not. There is this kernelspace NT driver that I wanted to try, but I couldn’t because pacman is locked.

I don’t like containerisation because it leads to bullshit like atomic distros. I don’t want a spicy Android.

Steam OS has some cool elements like the menu, the in-game side panels and the game mode/desktop dichotomy, but incremental rolling release is utterly deranged from my POV as an Arch user (btw).

If the borrow checker fails, the thing in their hand might throw some very effective error messages.

Why?

I like the concept of NewPipe combining several content providers.

To me, NewPipe’s Peertube would be better with a search function that can select any server as base.

Did I misunderstand something or is that an c++InCel-joke?

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass… and I’m all out of bubblegum.

Awful and horrifying.

I think a lot of people don’t know that about ReiserFS. ‘Geek defense’, wtf.

This must be a reference to someone, right? Casual femicide sounds a bit off.
