I was totally unaware of how bad it is until I actually read some current teachers describe horrrors of how the incoming students were so unprepared about technical literacy. It's freaking scary.

We really designed the society as it is and we're going to suffer the consequences for a long time.

And the best is still linkedin. Nowhere else do you get desperate woman insisting they want to talk with you.

You know, they need to make it appear alive and that there are interactions and users so the value raises and people are engaged.

It's how you make money as a company. For everyone else, mastodon.

Well as the builders of the current distopian present we were told all the time that we needed to create user interfaces and services where people would not need to know anything about tech and there was always a "design for the dumb user" since forever.

This is what we get by pushing that narrative I guess.

Getting good enough noise cancelling and mic detection working is only almost decent on the official app.

I've never had a problem with low bitrate or anything related to that.

And sound overall is shit.

I'll start believing or caring about any alternative browsers when I see a big influx of money comming to a browser project. Just grabbing a codebase and changing some settings and releasing it with a new name is not really creating or maintaining a browser. People keep thinking that it's easy to maintain a huge project like a browser by just praying and volunteers.

Finally. I had it working after a bunch of workarounds recently, but it was not really stable.

Always remember, this is what we all deserve for using closed source apps.

Because the linux is explicitly only gpl2. If it was gpl2+ then gpl3 code could use it. It's a very known problem around the incompatibility of some licenses. The kernel people explicitly only want to use gpl2 and refuse changing the license because it's better for companies that want to use linux without giving back the code.

Yeah. It served it's purpose, he bought a mass social media outlet, let it run wild, influenced elections, spread hate and normalized even more extreme views to fuck with all the world. The damage is done. Claiming doing something good at this point when it should have been done at the early signs but everyone would call you paranoid is just non sense. Crying wolf and all that bullshit.

Embrace and Extend. An old and tried technique proven to work deeply integrated into the dna of what MS are.
