Came here to say just thatthat.

Lobste.rs is probably even more on the “engineers talking to engineers” side of things. I’ve not visited in a while and am not sure what people there think of (the current crop of gen)AI.

“and we are thereforerenaming the project Joséer González”

I don’t think I’ve ever read a description or definition of fascism where the population being immature is a thing.

What do you mean?

Personal, business and government spending are all entirely different things.

Using one to think about the other makes very little sense.

Terrified Pro Max.

Terrified Robespierre St Just.

Also, a fraction of packages, users and guides.

I think Guix is great, but as a NixOS enthusiast who genuinely wanted to try it out, I gave up in the face of the lack of docs for people who aren’t working in lab or have a PhD in computing of some sort.

Also, how is shepherd better than systems? Genuinely curious.

Lastly, I agree Nix is not a very enjoyable language, but scheme doesn’t look like a very beginner friendly option either. Could be wrong, I’m not a programmer.

Probably throw in a bit of “just world” delusion in the mix, to make things worse.

If not the cruelty they are often convinced (or have convinced themselves) that poverty is deserved, like their opulence is.

Just today there was a post on how most Americans believe poverty is the result of individual choices.

Happy to help!

The problem is those companies (premiumize, debrid, whatever) are entities that make profits from filesharing and give nothing back to artists. That’s not morally defensible.

Filesharing itself is perfectly morally defensible, and in fact sharing culture is good for society (including artists).

So while they might be convenient, they also shouldn’t exist in the first place. Parasitic companies shouldn’t be rewarded for their patristic behaviour.

This is spot on (pun intended).

No, you don’t need that. You want it because it’s convenient and we live in a consumerist society where everything “needs” to be “frictionless”. Intentionally clicking on an artist’s bandcamp page to listen to a recommendation is fine. It’s a lot easier than mail order or taking the bus to the record store to buy a copy.

I get what you’re saying, but we need to question the parameters of the challenges more often.

What do you mean by “they control the app fully”? Something like https://github.com/abba23/spotify-adblock will let you run the app without ads, which kinda contradicts the idea they control the app fully.

Uh, there “Trump 2028” caps at the top left of the photo.

He’s casually showing world leaders his shitty hats and that he plans to run for a third term despite it being entirely unconstitutional.

I can’t tell if it’s complete bravado or sheer incompetence.

Ah that really sucks. Who should be on the hook for replacing and fixing all this?

That sounds like it should be seriously checked. Hopefully there’s no lead, but that’s not sure given what you’re saying.

Well then it’s too late… I’d much rather avoid people the excruciating pain.
