And what do you think the negotiators are negotiating about? Why do you think anyone took Martin Luther King serious? They were fucking scared of Malcolm X and Marcus Garvey. "We make a deal with you so the scarier people don't get any scarier than they are right now"

And Martin Luther King STILL got killed for speaking out. You've shown some really ignorant and privileged views in this thread. I'm glad Sweden's been so kind to you, but maybe don't chirp about shit you don't know about if you don't want people to say you sound like a tool for oppressors, especially when your nations wealth comes from the fossil fuels that's killing everyone else. You are a beneficiary of colonialism even if you're not the beneficiary of colonialism.

The top level comment mentions freedom?

100%. I wanted to summarize things as succinctly as possible but its basically impossible to deny this person is a complete bastard

Yeah. Like... I can't think hyprland offers enough to make it worth promoting. Its like... Yeah Drake put out some tracks than when they show up in my feed I like until I realize its that massive piece of shit. You can't really have death of the author when the author gains more audience through hype of their output. I'd recommend people interested in hyprland look at river, sway, or dwl instead

The lead dev thought it was no big deal that the moderators of his official discord server were going out of their way to harass trans people. Then when someone said "hey this isn't okay" he was like "why am I to blame I didn't do it"

I mean... Not YouTube specifically but YouTube is representative of why us programmers are unhappy. The era of feeling like the tech industry and the internet are making the world better is over. All of them media platforms exist to co-opt our social interactions and replace them with ads for microwavable meals. They're spying on us, and for what? They control major elements of how we live out lives, and WHAT THE FUCK DO THEY EVEN GAIN? A lot of them are going bankrupt because it wasn't profitable. Their ads are less effective than the oldest forms of advertising. Ultimately, these platforms were about control, not about... Any other stated goal. And us programmer? We got tricked into thinking we were developing platforms to connect people and create a global culture of interconnectedness. Turns out we were building the infrastructure to implement genocide

When people on Lemmy.ml say their communities core values are different from lemmygrad.ml they look like total fucking roobs given who runs both instances (HINT: its the Lemmy core devs for both)

I assume they've never experienced the true joy of enjoying a masterful work of art, an amazing natural landscape, or a really good home cooked meal with friends. They're people who internally are totally devoid of culture. Their lives have seen capitalism strip them of all the joys of what it means to be human and they've responded to that trauma by saying "thank you". They're the Donald Trump voters of internet culture. They're the Drake fans of internet culture. The only thing they value is being on top because they are products of the colonial capitalist society we live in. They can't imagine a world without hierarchy where you genuflect to whoever is on top because that's all they know and they've been conditioned through propaganda not to listen to anyone who says something else could work

I'm opinionated, too, and I'm of the opinion that GNOME's opinions get in the way of me getting work done lol

Linux Mint is one of the lowest effort (from a user perspective) options out there

I'd say then YaST is your friend but SUSE has overwhelming issues by not labeling settings as being common tweaks or advances options. Well... Maybe it's better these days. I don't think about SUSE that often. It just always stays on my horizon as being pretty much good enough for anything I'm interested in doing without it being perfect

Is "humor" what we're calling it these days?
