It could be used as a wedge to further attack freedom of speech or they could require ID verification for anyone and then use that info to track you and target you if they think you are against them. The nazis used the census data to find and target Jewish people because back then religion used to be recorded in it, Trump and the republicans now require people on visa to have their social media accounts public so they can target anyone who they deem “anti American” and deport them. Any law should be made with checks and balances in place keeping in mind how the worst of humanity could abuse it

I guess they harvested enough user data by now and don’t need to give it away for free anymore, well it had some uses but not enough for me to pay for

On one hand I do think social media has ruined society, and kids should definately not be on it till their brain has matured a bit, on the other hand I worry how corrupt officials could use this in their favor

These scummy fucks even put it as a requirement in job descriptions these days

Hasn’t apple always been anti sideloading, and anti jail braking, people who want those options stick to android, but even Google is trying to become like Apple in that regard these days, years ago when I joined this industry I didn’t think it would become so insidious and evil, I wish I could change careers but now it’s too late

Yup tried and failed

App stores are the worst thing to happen to phone tech. Back in the Nokia days there were no restrictions on installing any app you want as there were no official app stores and that’s how it should be, imagine if Microsoft made it impossible to install apps outside of its windows app store, no would accept that, so why do we accept it for mobiles OS’s

Are you a bot, cause it’s unhinged if you spend your time doing this shit all over social media for free, like take a step back, take an edible and look at yourself objectively, do you like what you see

My policy with open source projects like these is to fork the repo and only bring in upstream updates when I’m certain it’s safe and necessary

I only noticed dst change when I saw that my analog desk clock was off by an hour one day compared to my phones. Why do we even do this shit, I dont think anything changes for my routine from it

You can’t just say perchance!!!

Oh no I don’t give a fuck about that, when’s he getting thrown in prison for raping children

More like ruining other people’s creations, he has the opposite of Midas touch, anything he touches turns to shit

Yeah this has always how it’s been throughout human history. Democracy just gives a fake veneer of a system that’s fair and equal where everyone gets a say in how things get run, but the system works for the rich by taking from the poor. The only power we have is collective action and solidarity, but people are divided fighting each other over petty bullshit. Funny I come across this post after watching good fortune lol

Are brown shoes like a fashion thing among these people, kind strange that in the photo they all have brown shoes

I think the topics they make videos on these days feel more gimicy and click baity so I kinda avoid them

Nice, in America you are lucky if they pay you for your unused vacation days

What about the famous German workers protection laws and unions I keep hearing about

I’d argue that the people who decided to monetize toilet paper are cheaper

Plus the tactile feel and responsiveness of a book us unmatched, it’s lightweight and portable, you will never run out of battery, and flipping back and forth through pages is much more intuitive that jumping between bookmarks in pdfs and ebooks, the only thing that comes close is e ink readers but those have their own tradeoffs
