Used Windows for most of my life and iOS at work for a while. When I finally made the switch to Linux last year I was very eager to try Gnome because it looked so sleek. Almost like iOS.

But it didn‘t feel like iOS at all. It felt exactly like the Linux stereotype. Like you have to subscribe to an entirely new lifestyle and way of doing things. I‘m not ready for that. Not when other operating systems are so much more intuitive.

I ditched it quickly and have happily used KDE Plasma since. I think it‘s much closer to the UX of „conventional“ operating systems like iOS. I want to use the console for some tasks but most of the time I just want menus, thanks.

All of these companies are huge Linux users. It‘s not always malicious intend. Internet companies need Linux for the internet to function.

It literally is a common usage of the word alongside astonishment and gerat wonder. Go read a dictionary for once.

They said it‘s amazing as if it was any surprise. It really isn‘t.

Are we forgetting how they violently break up mass protests against their far right radical theocracy? The Iranian regime is just a different flavor of fascism.

I mean the guy didn’t really make it. AI did. Or should I say the collective effort of many people’s work that the model was trained on did? I find there‘s something ironic about the content of the videos considering LLMs are the ultimate „fuck your consent“ tools. But I will say it‘s very effective.

It also takes a collective childhood memory and does something very edgy with it. That tickles our brains in a very funny way.

Who needs Iran as their enemy when you have Israel as your „ally“.

People know the U.S. better than almost any other country. The U.S. is very loud while China is rather quiet. And that‘s not from a lack of trying from China‘s side. It makes sense people feel stronger about someone so loud. Someone who had influenced the world so much with pop culture and politics.

Personally I still prefer the U.S. over China but that‘s a very low bar. As a European I want to be more independent from both.

His presidency perfectly summarized. He‘s a mean bully that destroys things but if you give him your lunchbox and make some flattering remarks he‘ll be a little less shitty to you, personally. Rinse and repeat until the country he runs is no more.

Guess I‘ll hold off watching news and quietly enjoy the little pre WW3 peace time I have.

This is the correct model. America developed very similarly, unlike parts of Eurasia which is why Europe and Asia are definitely culturally distinct, but America isn‘t. At least not for a lot of us.

Sorry „north“ Americans, but you‘re not that different from Argentinians to us.

They are already turbo unpopular and the coalition could go bust any moment. They have no good will from voters left to spend on this deeply unpopular and hypocritical commitment.

America is one continent.

ITT: Lots of angry Americans on copium. Stay strong.

The US President and the US ministry of war have called it a war many times already. They call it a war pretty much all the time. If someone is still not calling it for what it is then they‘re probably high on Russian propaganda and didn‘t read the script. Again, the US president started a war to distract from his disastrous polling numbers and he doesn‘t even try to hide it. Unlike his close relationship to Jeffrey Epstein.

It‘s okay. It‘s only the 4th major price shock in 6 years. We‘re actually getting used to not being able to afford anything. Isn‘t that right folks? Folks? Why are you carrying pitchforks and torches?

This might seem drastic but think of the great benefits to society! Such as…. uhm… uuuh. Hey! Look what I can do! 🤹

…And far right Trump supporter. I don‘t envy Venezuela for their top politicians.

We need more people in custody and evidence to be tempered with? I don‘t think we do. We just need a world without billionaires.
