The mobile ecosystem is what happens when people who went to business school get to make all of the decisions instead of engineers or users.
Security has become the new “save the kids” to swindle people who don’t know any better into giving up their rights.
Welcome aboard.
Is the USA collapsing in real time?
Yes, the spiral has been going on for awhile now.
Wow! He really doesn’t want Westerners to buy Chinese electric cars that are much more affordable than the ones currently available.
Every modern capitalist is either a scammer or a moron.
Weird Al gets it.
I agree. I always try to use software from my distros repository before anything else.
Flatpaks/appimages are good for when there is no other option.
Sorry that happened to you.
The distro developers should implement a solution so that updating without enough space doesn’t break your system. They could prevent the update or at least warn you that there’s not enough space and bad things can happen.
Sure would be nice if they caught and fixed that before pushing the update and requiring users to do it themselves.
Sorry you had to go through with that.
Point-release distros like to tout stability, but they face all the same problems as rolling-release distros when upgrading between versions.
Just dusted off one of my old Android apps and I completely agree with you.
Android has to be one of the least-competent, hacked-together, yet overengineered pieces of shit on the planet.
It saddens me that people were paid 6 figures to make it. They did not deserve that money and did a horrible job.
I agree, but tightly-coupling when it isn’t necessary is a sign of incompetence.
Cloudflare offers at-cost domain names. There’s a lot of issues with using them though. Since they’re so big, they have a culture of giving governments/oligarchs whatever they want.
There is Njalla, owned by someone involved with The Pirate Bay. It supposedly allows users to buy domain names privately, although I’m not sure at what cost. I’ve read users saying that Njalla will revoke domain names if pressured by outside forces, so they don’t seem like a good option similar to cloudflare.
The DNS is a tool of surveillance and control and we should move away from it as quickly as possible.
Useful idiot detected.
That’s scummy as fuck.
I guarantee they do that on purpose just like all other scams that make you invest your time before telling you you need to pay.
They spend our money to tell us what to think.
Israel sucks, but I’d rather have them pulling the strings than Iran.
Some are getting scammed significantly harder than others.
It’s not that its legal; it’s the legal market.
Everyone buying their weed legally is getting scammed to high-heaven.
Studying.
