Imagine using Windows 😤😤

Cracking since before I was 10 lol
Both for me I cancontinuously make a cracking sound with ankle if I twist my foot around in a circular motion. My knees only crack every few minutes though if I bend down and stand up again
Halo’s Forerunners
TES’ Dwarven ruins
Assassins Creed’s First Civilization
All spring to mind
Also Star Wars’ Zeffo / Zeffonians
Cool to see.
I am curious though, does Slackware do anything that other Distros can’t?
Is there a reason to choose it over say Debian or Fedora aside from it being around for so long and the nostalgia factor
Access to open source, end to end encrypted technology. Particularly for messaging/ communication.
I bought my Fairphone 3 at the start of 2020. I love it. I love the fact I can dissamble it with the provided screwdriver in two minutes.
I love that I can buy replacement parts for it if anything breaks without having to get some kind of expensive repair from Apple or Samsung. Ive replaced the charging port on this phone and I’ll be replacing the battery soon too. Giving people the ability to fix and maintain their own devices is fantastic.
I am hoping to get a decade out of this device and I’m nearing 4 years with no complaints so far. I’m a little bit dissapointed they got rid of the headphone jack on the Fairphone 4. While you can get adapters etc, it shouldn’t be necessary imo. That alone is my biggest gripe with that device. Aside from that though, they make great devices and I highly reccomend them
Anyone else think the logo for Fennec is better than Firefox
Worked support for an electricity supplier. I was able to see a frightening amount of info about the customers. Even past ones who had moved elsewhere.
We also kept notes about each call, email, web or app chat. So if you were an asshole in the past, everyone will know going forward.
Also fuck landlords and landladies etc. More often than not, they were shitty to deal with.
Also we would often use Google Maps and Streetview to see what your house looked like. We also had pictures of the inside because the installation techs took pictures to confirm that works were completed as specified.
Alll of this was available to us for any reason, at any time with no oversight. And none of it was encrypted. There was also government websites in use up to 2020 that required internet explorer to use and had passwords as trivial as ‘Password1’.
I left that job because the pay was lousy and the stress was pretty full on. I respected a lot of people that worked there. Both higher ups and people who came after me. But fuck was there a lot of potential for bad actors or like stalkers etc to mess with your info.
I would reccomend to everyone. Please use password managers. Especially decent open source ones like Bitwarden. Take note of every piece of info that you give a company. From your phone number, address, email etc to even when you contacted them. Also try to not have your home look like an abandoned hovel on Streetview lol. Easier said than done I know. But it may affect your dealings with support people that you need help from. And lastly, please dont use Password1 as a login. Ever. Like please.
I’m going to assume you are not a troll lol.
Its a frame from Indiana Jones. A movie about an American archeology professor exploring places for ancient artifacts.
In the first movie, he is searching for the Holy Grail but is also fighting a bunch of actual Nazis.
The joke here is that Indiana Jones is an actual professor in these movies. In real life, college professors tend to lean politically left.
Meanwhile, hes beating the shit out of a Nazi. Modern day Nazis adore Donald Trump and so obviously lean far right.
So Indiana Jones beating up a Nazi is like a leftie professor beating up and an Alt Right Trump supporter.
Its not funny since I have to explain it now. But on the 0.01% chance you are not a troll, at least now you know
I mean fuck violence, but also fuck trump supporters lol
“Can we have something like multireddits please”
“Can someone explain how the Fediverse works”
“I’m making a new Lemmy app”
“I can’t wait for [x] to make a Lemmy app”
“Wtf is a tankie”
“Rule”
“[A meme about being trans]”
“[A meme about being neuro-atypical]”
“[A meme you have seen reposted a dozen times elsewhere]”
“I miss Apollo”
PS, I dont mean this in a bad way. I love Lemmy and it is hugely encouraging to see so many people use it. I’m just poking fun at trends I’m seeing emerge.

I love my Fairphone 3. This is great news.
Went down a bit of a rabbit hole here. Very interesting. Would love to see a Vsauce style video going into various real life examples of this
Thanks for sharing.
Unfettered Capitalism breeds emshitification.
Why build and keep a great product when shareholders will always push for more growth and higher revenue. Even if that means laying off your best devs and pissing off users.
‘No I dont think I will’
Use Firefox btw
Charge they phone
Yeah thats fair enough. Exceptions can be made for work lol.
