finding out about rossman being transphobic is no surprise but geerling being a religious anti-abortion nutjob was devastating.

Instagram also needs to “make a living”. They do that by making your life as an artist harder. You have to make a choice between using software that respects you and having a smaller following, or using a platform that, in every way that you can imagine, is abusing you.

Post is about someone going to home depot. most people are not reading the privacy policy for the shops they go to. I do. I make others aware.
Not sure how a comment about the store the post is about isnt relevant.

You do need to worry about whether or not your phone is locked to a specific carrier and if its the carrier you want to use the phone with. or, if its a phone you want to bring to another network, you have to figure our if you need to argue with your current carrier to get it unlocked.
To piggyback off this, Windows is also "harder" than Android. You need to reinstall Windows due to an update fuckup? You tried building your own PC? Well, you either fork.over $120 for an installation media, or you have to create your own, then learn how to boot into the BIOS to boot from that media, then you need to scour the internet for not only your Nvidia driver, but your audio driver, WiFi driver, integrated graphics driver (if you have and want to use an IGPU) and possibly motherboard drivers if your mobo has some odd implementation that requires a driver for USB 3.1 to work properly.
None of these operating systems are "harder" than another. You are just used to one over the other. You don't use your automatic transmission car skills trying to drive a manual transmission, unless your goal is to crash and burn.

You could however find a store that does not entertain the notion of purchasing flock AI surveillance cameras.
harm reduction.
massgrave proves my point. The user has to go out of their way to find and run that script.
Linux would just work ootb. No activation needed. Ergo; Linux is easier than Windows.
It's poor form to say an apple tastes worse than an orange because its purely opinion. Theres no fact. I was trying to show the original reply is nonsensical, because for some, Android is harder than Linux. Android may not be what someone is used to.

Just out of curiosity I did check
in select Texas stores we may collect biometric information such as a facial recognition data, when you enter our stores for security purposes, to protect the health and safety of our customers and associates, and to prevent, investigate, and prosecute shoplifting, fraud, and other criminal activities. We provide notice at the point of entry in locations where we collect biometric information.
So, only in Texas and theyre supposedly not trying to hide it ? at least for facial recognition. ALPR isn't specifically mentioned in Kroger's privacy policy, although this line implies it's not entirely off the table
Sensory data such as CCTV recordings from our facilities or premises or photos. Some of our cameras may capture license plate data for security purposes, to protect the health and safety of our customers and associates, and to prevent, investigate, and prosecute shoplifting, fraud, and other criminal activities. We may record your voice when you contact our customer service centers.

I love punching down and downplaying the importance of sharing information.
I will now be using those tools I was talking about. I dont need a privileged baby toddler crying to me about how hard it is to see that someone is trying to spread information that is genuinely useful.
Good job not denying being straight up ablest btw.

The original quote (which didn't involve pricing) was from a poster on the wall @ Nintendo, and was never said by Shiggy directly. I think it originated from an article in the 2000s and got incorrectly attributed. I dont remember exactly though.

Americans under the age of 30 voted for Harris by 4 points (50 percent Harris – 46 percent Trump), though young men and women diverged dramatically, with men under 30 voting for Trump by 16 points (41 percent Harris – 57 percent Trump), and women under 30 voting for Harris by 24 points (59 percent Harris – 35 percent Trump).
fuck off.

how do you get people off this platform. i know people (people who aren’t Nazis) that still use this shit because “all the fandom’s I like are there!!”…
man. fuck.

they will fight beyond what is reasonable to hold onto what they used to enjoy
why though? like. there are better services, there are services built almost exactly the same as twitter before the enshitifiation. Bsky + the various fedi platforms.
i know like. why. people are resistant to perceived change, but theres clearly more change staying on the hellsite if you step back and examine it.
its frustrating yk?

I feel like (at least for the time being) at least you can view youtube privately, without giving them revenue. They are continually fighting this, but as far as I am aware at least they havent tried to sue NewPipe or Invidious (Vanced is exempt from this rule because they thought making crypto currency of Googles IP would end well for them)
Twitter is owned by a known white supremacist who has been directly involved with ruining the lives of millions of people, in addition to the fact you literally can not access the platform right now unless you are contributing to them monetarily.

bring back USB3.0/DP out on the FP7 and I’ll bite. The FP6 going to USB2.0 screwed the pooch for me.

It is better for the planet, its better for mental health, better for diversity, accessibility, open information, its better in every way but the fact people won’t move. the argument of “well people aren’t there so im not even going to try” is frustrating because it abstracts the blame of lack of users to the platform instead of the individuals who are refusing to even try.

i know exactly what youre talking about and I dont entirely get that behavior either. I understand it, I know why it happens logically, but it feels like a lack of effort or caring to me. It feels like someone saying “just get me my fill I dont care about the consequences”

As another commenter said, seedvault is a huge part of it. That, and when I am taking video to upload somewhere, it would take forever to transfer a 20-120 minute 4k file.
And file transfer isnt the only reason. Android 16/17 are bringing desktop docking features, and thats s feature I’ve wanted on phones since Android 8. I have a device with DP out now, and as someone who owns a dock its a game changer for events where I need to display to something fast. I can’t wait for it to be a fully fleshed out DE. (Not to mention the fact that Chromecast is a shitty format that my is doesnt even support)
