The first one I get it, but the second… Then don’t anything, why live when there is eventually suffering? Thats just a sad and misserable way to think damn. And there is actually people reasoning like this, why 😭

WASM is that much slower? I get that needing a f*** Js wrapper to be able to use the DOM cannot be good, but is there really that much of a difference?

Fair point. Mostly price, you can get one for like 100€. I also feel like the used market is more fair than buying new, so there’s that.

LAN party!! You have the optimal excuse to make one happen ;)

Honestly, when my current laptop dies, I will just get a used cheap thinkpad just like anybody else or even SSD any trash-going relic. If you want some alternative, someone commented this that looked interesting: https://mntre.com/reform.html

Although it comes with obvious limitations: https://forum.fairphone.com/t/is-the-mnt-reform-the-best-repairable-laptop-available/113321

Yes… But sadly no? First example that comes to mind, you can check “dhh blog” on the internet (🤮) and if you read enough you will get to see the kind of person he is… You can also check this about Hyprland: https://drewdevault.com/2023/09/17/Hyprland-toxicity.html

I mean, when the political stance of the supported company is “I would literally murder you of I could” the politics become kinda relevant 🥲

Yes, and in fact I am collaborating in a neighborhood project for the implementation of a local ISP. Obviously you are right, with the way the internet is built it is inevitable to depend on some centralized systems out of reach, I cannot lay a submarible cable xD. But other than in cases of absolute need, where there is really no alternative, I want an internet more like it was before I was born, just people communicating using local infra, not Internet Monsantos

Never used it nor never will, I want my infra to be as independant as possible, and also fuck internet centralisation and fuck corpos

Sounds super fun to do! Not something I’d use atm as we have a propper setup, but defilitely worth the read. Thanks for sharing ;)

“I have my own Netflix and Google Drive and Spotify etc etc”

Up until 3 years ago I was unfazed by the concept of death, unbothered even when relatives perished. I did not think much of it. Now, every year that goes by, I am tormented by the idea that Blue is a bit older than he was before. I have not once cried since adulthood. Around my 40s however, I fear I will.

Gonna pet my idiot a lot now 🥲

Dammit, I was considering using it D:

Cool. In other news: Fuck Google and fuck Chrome too

The ones about the police may vary between regions, otherwise pretty cool

Hi, I identify as extremely leftist, guess my opinion on that. I don’t like tankies either, but well, I do believe it is ok to spit on fucking fascists, y’know

Good

Yeah, sometimes its not practical avoiding certain projects (see fucking JavaScript), but promoting and funding is a major barrier and red flag…

Offtopic, but whats up with the cyrilic looking character you are using? Is it to fuck with bots or something else entirely?

Impressive 😏

thanks for the idea, will do :D
