You can’t make this shit up, lol.

They are populated by a lot of misogynistic and sexually frustrated guys trying so hard to overcompensate what little manliness they think they have. The kind that think it’s OKAY for THEM to cheat but not the other way around.

There was a dude from TikTok recently that’s going to get sentenced for life for murdering his wife and someone she was seeing. His reason? He tried using provocation and his emotional instability as the reason. Like, fuck you dude, you’re insecure and you didn’t use your brain power to divorce and dump her but instead you got to go and kill her?

Now imagine that shit amplified if Republicans or Trump get into office. Women left and right would not only be imprisoned in relationships or even marriages to guys that presumably lied about themselves to get their way with these women. But now guys would have practical immunity if they even think the woman they’re dating with is cheating to kill them.

Majority of the shit that they’re touting as ‘new’, have already been done in past Windows OSes.

Widgets? Vista did that. Touchscreen? Windows 8 did that. Search? Really, fucking search? All Windows OSes did that. Paint? Are they fucking serious?

Don’t you fucking disregard Paint…

NOBODY ignores Paint.

Hm, glad I was informed that my Twitch account was deleted a week ago.

There’s some people on here trying to make Lemmy like Reddit was when Reddit’s idea of communicating in 2016 and onwards.

Let’s not let that happen.

Fuck you Intuit. Ha, what’re you going to do now? Sue the IRS?

Narrator: They will try.

Yes.

Sonic 3 came out in 1994.

…That’s because maybe you got them used or something? Like, name me one retail store back then selling games for $5 just out of the blue. I won’t wait because you wouldn’t come up with anything.

You are mixing used markets with retail prices here. Just stop embarrassing yourself.

For all we know, could be some fat teenager doing it for the “lulz” or just “winning” by owning them libs.

One would and wouldn’t be surprised. I just abandoned a texas poker app on mobile and it’s sickening to see how many people pay up cheaters just to get billions and even a trillion chips. Then I see them on the table and they always win.

And once news stopped covering it, that’s when shit hit the fan.

And they’ll probably be killed and that’ll be that. Yay, China… /s

I read all of this and totally agree. I got a good laugh out of the snippet of the comment you pulled about making a radio out of coconuts on a desert island example. Because you know that’s pretty damn true.

What I find obnoxious with Linux and always had to this day, was the pretentiousness of some users that will spend any waking minute to browbeat anyone into using Linux. They always show up whenever someone has something to complain about with Microsoft Windows, big or small. Never fails, both ironically and unironically.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, THE moment people realize how much tinkering they’ll have to spend time at the terminal for, will turn them away from Linux. Yeah sure you’ve got the software library manager which is leaps and bounds an improvement. But by and large, you will still do a lot of installing, configuring, troubleshooting and more with the terminal. You’re going to be required to know commands and it’s going to require a lot of time at the search engine.

And nearly nobody has the patience for that at all. They want a computer and they want the operating system to do everything they want it to do for them. Windows just does that for them and more.

Linux to me, will always be a OS of choice for any laptop new or old that I get. It will never have a sniff at taking over my desktop because I just know that if I ran a Linux OS full-time everyday, that my limits will have been exhausted and I’ll be running back to Windows in no time. All because Linux can’t do everything I would want it to do, despite the progress it has made and it’s progress that shouldn’t be scoffed at either considering the long way it has come to be where it is today.

People who proudly proclaim they’re going to Linux whenever MIcrosoft shoots their feet off, is just making a rebellious statement. Who knows for real as to how comfortable they’d really be if they were using Linux 24/7.

I’m on Windows 10 and it hasn’t deleted anything I’ve pirated.

If this was true, my entire music collection, emulated games, the ebooks .etc would be all gone by now and I’d have nothing.

But yet, they remain.

You’re not even safe from deleting your account.

You delete your account, come back with a new one to find that the suggested people are people you once had as friends or looked at.

Gee, wonder how they know that? /s

From what I understand and not trying to read any of the answers to this.

For the large part of the picture, it’s about marketing. To market specifically to you that is based on where you’ve been, what you’ve bought before and what your interests are. So they know that you don’t want to buy or subscribe into things you’ve no interest in at any capacity. So why not try to goad you into it by using things you’re into because of the data collected that’s filtered from your interests?

That’s probably the only not-so worrisome thing I can think of. It’s just a giant distraction and tool to get you to spend and subscribe.

A lot of people don’t like to be tracked and having data collected because, we feel it isn’t anyone’s business in what we do. So, why should it be the business of Google, Apple, Microsoft, Discord, Reddit, Facebook, Firefox .etc to be concerned in what we do?

Aside from marketing, it’d be a lot easier for all of them to pinpoint exactly what we do to feed data to authorities for easier prosecution. Which depends on how you look at it, I just think that if you don’t want to attract the attention of authorities who’ve been given a tip on you without you knowing, don’t be a criminal.

All in all really and I’m starting to derail my own explanation, it’s a big wiry issue with privacy.

To put it plainly, it’s largely for marketing and we really feel it isn’t the business of corporations to know what we’re doing, if we’re knowingly not breaking any laws. Also now that I’ve thought of it, harvesting so much data increases risk of security breaches that hackers can take. Which means it’s going from bad hands to worse off hands because now hackers can just sell our data around in the black market and we wouldn’t even know it.

This was an industrial band project that only released one album in 2013. This was made during the time Disturbed was on hiatus and David Draiman got to be a part of something new. Would’ve been nice to have seen what a second album could’ve been.

Point still stands though.

If nobody finds your shit funny, they don’t find it funny. It isn’t because they’re a “snowflake” or that they “don’t get it”. Not everywhere and everyone needs to hear your shitty jokes because you feel you need to “lighten up” the world.

People just want to amuse themselves and blanket it as if it’s supposed to be some positive contribution. Who’re you trying to fool?

Yup, he’s already been working around the clock to make an even more scummier administration. I think he even wanted Vince McMahon involved too. Just more cushy jobs for people he finds friend in, through his fractured world perspective.
