I don’t know the English word for it actually

Yeah maybe but what can we do about it? I’m not gonna de-transition

It’s dangerous to put people on a pedestal. A lot of good happens because someone who isn’t perfect decided to do something good that day

I have a bunch of stuff DRM-free and ripped from CDs I’ve bought. I’ve been against drm for a while, just takes practice to maintain the habit

What should anyone have done different? Not built for one of the largest platforms with the most users?

Yeah but it’s “we” as in everyone not “we” as in “Lemmy commenters”.

So the network effect will keep the average person on a locked-down phone that can’t run anything anti-regime

it’s probably hard to get a rifle into a stadium or onto neighboring high ground, though

Or a distraction from the attempt to consolidate power and stop any more elections

Imagine having more money than an entire city and still being a dweeb who has to fall in line behind an old man

Fast, artistic, high-definition, simply stunning

I like it, but I gradually quit listening to it after seeing Skynyrd use the Confederate loser flag in a concert video

Lynyrd Skynyrd used a Confederate flag from the 1970s until the 2010s, and several criticisms have been raised against them because of this.[51][52] While promoting the album on CNN on September 9, 2012, members of the band talked about its discontinued use of Confederate imagery.[53] In September 2012, the band briefly did not display the Confederate flag, which had for years been a part of their stage show, because they did not want to be associated with racists that adopted the flag. However, after protests from fans, they reversed this decision, citing it as part of their Southern American heritage and states’ rights symbolism.[54] The band would later cease use of the Confederate flag starting with their 2019 tour.

Ah to have no principles

I wasn’t officially in the scene but these days I’m a lower-middle-class miserable loner so it could be worse

Good thing there’s an easy and simple litmus test to tell between harmful religion and benign religion

Leave house

Immediately have to get in car, risk life, risk money, spend spend all my attention, wait a long time, just to have to take up valuable square footage downtown parking the damned thing

You are supposed to have two redundant ones. Hooked up to every service. One leaves the house with you, the other stays in a safe, and you rotate them periodically

and nobody is gonna fucking do that lol

Mine are USB-A and USB-C so no two computers can use both. One of them randomly quit working (something in the OS dropped support for it maybe?) but then I think started working again?

At an old job I had a lot of control over my own infra and I used my HSM to log in to my forge. I haven’t used it daily in years now.

If by “passkey” they mean an HSM I’m okay with it

I’d still rather have TOTP as my 2nd factor so I don’t have to plug shit in

Lotta people didn’t take high school economics apparently

“Lapdock” seems to be the popular term. They’ve been around more than 10 years but never gone mainstream https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapdock
