  Bro wants to sound important and educated soooo bad. I actually giggled reading “economical attributes”. Like I don’t think even you understand what you’re trying to say.

  It’s social equality you’re meant to be working on, not getting a piece of the pie.

  Leftists want this. You’re not saying something revolutionary. The problem is that in America, getting democratic socialism with redistribution of wealth is much more realistic than a total social overhaul like you’re suggesting.

  Recognising and blaming distribution of wealth is literally opposing leftism because it’s acknowledging and giving finance power.

  Uhhh no. Capitalism and the govt give finance power. Recognizing and attempting to use the system to better the lives of people isn’t the problem, it just isn’t the ideal solution. It’s a stop-gap.

  You can claim “true leftism” all day, but I live in reality where half-assed solutions are better than nothing.

  Meh, an RGB notification LED was still much more glanceable. I agree that it’s somewhat redundant, but I had OLED phones with notif LEDs and it was still nice.

  I’m using the most trimmed Windows installs I can find (and manually trimming bits myself) to try and keep overhead as low as possible, but it’s still… rough. Don’t know how far I’ll actually be able to get. Once I get to XP I may just skip to 95, but we’ll see.

  Yeah, I just use pause for music, and I have a macropad with f13-18 so I just set one to trigger suspend.

  Nice! If I wasn’t using the custom hotkey I’d jump to this for sake of keeping things lightweight. Thanks for sharing.

  I maybe wasn’t clear, I didn’t make this, I just found it and figured folks here could benefit from knowing about it!

  But no clue if it’ll help with that, worth a shot tho.

  Would love to see the military force MS to contribute to WINE development until all govt apps work on Linux.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft owes $29 billion in back taxes plus penalties and interest to IRS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Problem is, there’s a lot of really specialized, critical software, that is provided by vendors and throws an absolute fit with any change you could maybe run Windows in a VM, but it may not work with the specialized hardware and networking gear being used, and now you’re spending a bunch of extra time and money setting up a vm if windows inside Linux, which means you also have to train everyone on how to use the VM, adds another management/security issue, and adds another point of failure.

  If they ever switch (the entire govt should, it would be so awesome to see the govt resources put into Linux development instead of M$ pockets) it’d have to be a very gradual process, and windows would still be around decades from now for legacy systems.

  This isn’t about making iPhone users care per se, I really think it’s just a public perception thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X rolls out new ad format that can't be reported, blocked⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Twitter was absolutely special when it came out. It was the first (or at the very least first successful) social media designed for mobile use. It also had large effects on how people thought about and used social media, and had big impacts on the ways various companies and people interact on social media.

  I’ve never particularly cared about twitter personally, I used it a handful of times here and there. But saying it was never special is a stretch at best.

  Yeah I tried Sea of Thieves a while back and unless you already got some friends who are pretty into it, or you’re a streamer trying to do crazy antics messing with people, the game just doesn’t have a lot of appeal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve: don’t expect a faster Steam Deck ‘in the next couple of years’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly. I’d like to see a few significant improvements for the next gen - namely in screen and performance to match, but my dream would be to see Valve license Framework’s module system (or build something similar of their own) and integrate one of those somewhere on the deck.

  It’d be great for the obvious, like adding high-speed storage, but just imagine the possibilities for a handheld gaming console of attachments people could build with a module system that locks in place like that.

  Obviously the module thing is a pipe dream and unlikely to happen, but I just feel like there’s a ton of additional potential for that form factor that’s unexplored, and I’d like to see longer generations not only for support, but also so that larger iterative work like designing a module system or whatever can be prioritized over rushing out regular performance upgrades.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Gruesome Story of How Neuralink’s Monkeys Actually Died⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that we as humans put ourselves above all other animals a lot. But as animals with a higher level of awareness, I feel that we have a responsibility to treat all other animals with respect.

  If someone thinks it’s justified to experiment on animals, I see it as their moral obligation to do everything in their power to minimize the suffering that animal will experience.

  Also, if this technology could potentially help with handicaps (big X to doubt moment tbh) I absolutely do not want Elon fucking Musk to be the one who owns the technology, so I hope they hit his company with the book.
