it’s exactly as you say, but i think moving on and on with worse and worse options is not gonna be better than the current iteration. and no one’s gonna fix the social divide or the voting system. i recommend just stopping to vote and stopping to watch news. the losers have already won, why are we still playing

honest, lads. imagine the forum culture would change to be friendly and welcoming. wouldn’t you feel like you lost a little bit of home? 🥲

👌😂 bit of a weirdflex lul but i hear ya

i would mark the turning point as when i saw the first candy crush icon on a fresh install from official image (i.e. not some laptop vendor who are already known to push mcafee and similar bloat) I’m so confused why regular users didn’t push back on it. it’s like buying a car and it has mcdonalds and office365 logos on it.

you need to learn how to read. it didn’t work on the first try i see 😂

my thinkbook 16p g2 is trash. Nvidia driver is not working well and the device wakes up from suspend whenever it’s plugged out or in on any usb or power connector, and then heats up your backpack.

it’s like fight club, but don’t tell them i told you 😳💦

ok now listen 😂 the path to maximum joy is twofold:

1. make sure you’re very happy
2. make sure to be informed about others unhappiness and ridicule it this is another offset that must be maximized

yeah but think about the mess the pro lifers would be in if their wishes weren’t fulfilled. it must be a humanitarian desaster 😭

the land of the safe ☺️

😂

😳

dude speaks the truth. i recommend refusing to fit in, in general, there’s so much bullshit that goes away and you end up somewhere nicer as a result. peer pressure is for mindless sheep, folks

👌😂 ah yes, straight from the finest collection of vintage backups that definitely exist

gets worse. they tried to warn you again and this time someone’s taken action before it could reach you: relevant news article

😎👍 joke’s on them i fired them from my phone

coolio 👌😎

when newpipe stops working I’ll stop using YouTube 😂 maybe my life will be better, who knows

my experience is a bit different. when the instance with your account and subscribed channels is down, it’s just not a good experience

there are no social issues you can ever fix to be found here. give a 11 year old an auto-win button for counter strike that he can press whenever he loses a single round and feels his pride hurt - he’ll press it.

i think that anti cheats display a disrespect to the customer, because in an ideal world he should then run two computers instead of one. one for online banking, the other one for every company’s favorite rootkit with questionable maintenance.

the only way out, in my view, is going to server side ai cheat detection.

man i remember doing that once. it basically tells the user: we can force you to waste your time. keep that in mind next time you want to exert free choice. end of story: told my boss i demand using Linux, he said ok. I’m happy now fellow pingus 🐧
