I’d like to point out that thanks to Signal, WhatsApp has end-to-end encryption. So Zuckerberg likely wouldn’t be able to snoop the content of that message.
Use Signal if you want a more trustworthy replacement, it’s great! If you want something even better but less stable, check out simplex.chat.
if you’re a cool tech wizard use xmpp
if you’re a fever dream use Briar
if you’re from the future… is secushare nice?
KDE Plasma is amazing.
I am happy that they do Wayland as default now, the Wayland experience has long been flawless for me. I wonder when this update will hit the Steam Deck, since gamescope is Wayland I don’t think Valve will go out of their way to enable X again.
So what you’re saying because “power over” is bad, humans are bad? There are plenty humans civilizations who did a better job at preventing power, maybe your misanthropy is a symptom of a narrow worldview?
This worldview is getting increasingly more common with more people falling for eco-fascist talking points. In my experience it most often boils down to two reasons why this happens: lack of education or unwillingness.
As you mentioned you’re in a privileged position, I am just gonna accuse you of the second. And that’s a shame. I bet with all the time you have from being free from being forced to do wage labour you could actually do good in the world. Your generalisation is an insult to every good person in the world, and I find that to be narrow-minded and disgusting.
That’s great to hear you’re trying to be better than your skewed view of humanity! I hope I was wrong.
I don’t know you, so hating you is kind of difficult and I don’t want to anyways :). I do absolutely despise the opinions you’ve presented in this thread though. I understand them on an emotional level, but I really encourage you to try to grow past them. It only helps those who want to make the world a worse place, and I personally think that empathy and cooperation is the way out.
I understand that’s more difficult than just throwing the towel.
Many native societies (who often still exist today), the zapatistas, in the ZADs, the Paris commune, Rojava, and also potentially most of the time humanity existed. I could dig up more, but arguing with somebody who has opinions like that is tedious.
“Meanwhile, antihumanists have divested the very concept of Progress of all relevance and meaning in the farrago of human self-denigration that marks the moods of the present time. A skepticism that denies any meaning, rationality, coherence, and continuity in History, that corrodes the very existence of premises, let alone the necessity of exploring them, renders discourse itself virtually impossible”
+1 für das “Wasn Scheiß” zur Deutschland-Fahne.
Ich meine aber, dass das die Farben einer Uniform waren. Goldene Knöpfe, schwarze Mäntel, und rote Irgendwas. Recherchieren kostet aber extra.
In Zusammenhang mit der Idee eines deutschen Nationalstaates traten die drei Farben erstmals während der Befreiungskriege (1813–1815) gegen Napoléon I. in Erscheinung. Sie entstammen den Farben der Uniformen des Lützowschen Freikorps, einer Freiwilligeneinheit des preußischen Heeres unter Führung von Ludwig Adolf Wilhelm von Lützow. Die Truppe trug schwarze Uniformen mit roten Vorstößen und goldfarbenen Messingknöpfen.
Also Pop-Up nicht als “Plopp-Auf” zu übersetzen sollte Grund für eine laminierte Abmahnung sein.
Und 5 Sterne bei möglichen 10 zu vergeben ist nicht akzeptabel. Bitte bewerte mich jetzt nochmal.
I think you’re misunderstanding them.
If you think the joke is about her appearance then yes the exact appearance matters (which would be valid, if this would be about unixsocks). The characters are what’s important to me here instead.
Lain is a computer enthusiast, who is kind of a shut in (at first). The above line is out of character for her but not Misato. If you don’t know these people then you wouldn’t know this, even if you have perfect vision.
Alt text should describe what you’re communicating, not necessarily every detail.
I changed it because very few people care about them right now, so when I got feedback I just changed it. I still think the the way it is right now makes more sense. Potentially I’m wrong, but I haven’t yet seen a convincing argument.

That is something that makes love from others feel so fragile to me.
There’s a certain point of suffering where the people who love you either don’t anymore or have to leave you to not get dragged down themselves. And it can happen so fast.
I don’t think anybody would say that to a person they love, but it is healthy to do so I think? And can you really blame somebody not wanting to stay with a cockroach (metaphorically speaking)?
That’s what annoys me too. If there were one, people with screen readers could just filter out the posts which don’t have them.
Right now I don’t think there are (m)any people here who actually get real use from them, since you would need to sift through so many posts before finding one with alt text.

Community note: Free software is in many cases more convenient than their proprietary alternatives. Proprietary software quickly becomes very inconvenient if you dislike how it works, if you don’t want to be a product, or if it has ads (like in your operating system? That’s pretty inconvenient, Microsoft).
Obviously that’s true. I don’t use any of the two, since I rarely edit images and inkscape can be abused for when I do.
However, for me using PhotoShop would be pretty inconvenient. I can install GIMP with two? clicks on any machine and instantly use it. For PhotoShop I don’t even have a device which has an OS on which it could run. Being unable to exercise the freedoms which free software gives me is pretty inconvenient, if I would like to at some point. Especially if I wanted to share the software with other people.
But I understand your point: if PhotoShop would be extremely more convenient for a task I need to regularly do, then it’s possible I’d use it. There cannot be a right life amidst wrongs, so a pragmatic approach feels more sustainable to me than dogmatism.
