Hey that’s not a real strawman! That’s Old Man Harris!

And I would have gotten away with it too, if it wasn’t for you damn kids

Cool story.

Well said

It’s foolish to fall for the false firewall these corporations try to put up between divisions. Meta is meta is meta. Do not think for a moment that they are not the same thing.

It seems like there are even idealistic employees of these places that have deluded themselves into believing that, simply because right at this moment, the person Meta has put in charge of their division isn’t an absolute psychopath, that their positions aren’t extremely unethical.

This feels like one of those things that pops up in Europa Universalis game and you say “meh whatever, not my problem” and x it out.

Then several real time hours later you realize that maybe you should have been paying more attention to that region after all and now your allies need your help in an unwinnable war.

Weird how I already had OP tagged as a Nazi bootlicker.

Just a lucky guess probably.

It is. However, I’m wondering if maybe you don’t know what it means because I don’t see it in the comment you replied to.

Could make it an installation at a museum or gallery. Who said anything about needing to personally own the hardware?

You’re not gonna believe this…

The advanced tactics of a negotiating genius.

It’s literally photos from 2024 and then 2026.

Someone should make this into a VR experience. Maybe then people will actually grasp the reality for the people on the ground.

And again I ask… To what end?

That being said, “Linux is not the problem, XYZ is” is totally an unacceptable answer for people coming to Linux.

If it’s a piece of hardware that is known for not getting along with Linux, this is literally just a factual statement.

Yeah dude that’s exactly what I said. Well done.

To what end?

No. The Chinese government has no power over me. It has nothing to do with "doing anything wrong, "

I couldn’t care less if the Chinese government sees my car “doing something wrong” (whatever the fuck that even means in this context. Parking somewhere I’m not supposed to?). I’m not Chinese and have never been to China.

I’ll worry more about my own government’s very real creation of a dystopic surveillance state right here at home.

Worse imo. Particularly for someone who isn’t from (or in) China.

It’s been known for years that Meta has ghost profiles on people who have never signed up for Facebook.

Yeah, I was just going to say, I honestly don’t really care if the Chinese government knows where my car is.
