  • When I read in a non-left source that "AES state did bad", my first instinct is just not to trust it. Maybe if video or academic sources demonstrate otherwise, maybe I might eventually change my mind, but it has a big hill to climb in my brain for that to happen. We've seen so much fabrication out of pro-capitalist news sources, why the fuck do people still trust them at face value?

  • For a lifetime Windows user, going to Mint has been very painless. Gaming is very good as well.

  • May I please put in a reminder that Brian Berletic is a far right source.

    I just assume his stuff has Thai subtitles as he's paid by the Thai military. He praises the monarchy like it's going out of style, and he always takes the side of reactionaries in SEA politics.

  • This is very entertaining, especially for someone who knows feck all about China (me). Thank you for this.

    I'm assuming that you spend a lot of time online with non leftists? Tbh nowadays I'm only on Hexbear and my super curated feed on Twitter, so I couldn't do this level of analysis for anywhere even if I tried very hard.

  • I actually haven't seen one yet. I just assume it's an AI voice, reading AI generated text, about something that Netflix's data about you says you might like.

  • Using Heliboard now. It's great. Thanks so much!

  • Ya I want to know too

  • economics class

    which is absolute ideology anyhow

    “Does The Washington Post have a paywall?”

    wow, you're using the everyone else is doing it argument. These are fucking children

  • I use my (likely knockoff) Kobo that I got cheap from a shady online shop. Adding EPUBs is so damn easy.

  • So I read somewhere that Fedora has great nvidia support and I installed it and everything worked

    OK maybe I'll try Fedora or Arch, cuz Mint is being weird about my video card.

  • Good on you to research. The more one realises how much wealth disparity negatively affects everything, the more one realises how much we need to change.

  • A LOT of the deaths in the category of "individual behaviour" are just diseases of poverty and/or society. Like come on, depression, drug & alcohol use, and road deaths are not even close to entirely individual.

  • Actually you might be right. I was just a bit lazy to research it.

    I've just seen enough Wikipedia sockpuppet investigations, where the server admin can see what device you're using. I'm assuming that they can often view your OS and device name, which indeed are easily changable.

  • This isn't particularly helpful, but getting off of

    is gonna end up being a good thing, long term. There's been a hundred incidents these past few years that have frustrated me on traditional social media. I was very annoyed at the time, but the end result was to get me off their terrible platform, and my mental health has been way better.

    If you want to read reddit without posting, just access via old dot reddit dot com. There are browser extensions that do this automatically, which are amazing. You can even access NSFW stuff if need be.

    If you need to post to

    again, you almost certainly need a new device. Reddit probably blocked your MAC address as well as your IP. But you'd probably need a new router cuz that has a MAC address as well. There's weird ways to change or spoof MAC addresses, but AFAIK they're not simple.

    Maybe someone can correct me on the last paragraph, as I'm only 90% sure.

  • Honestly I feel a bit uncomfortable seeing nudity in films. I think "he's this person who's half my age, so agreed to take her clothes off and be filmed because her job required it".

  • Involuntary pornography, my guy. How are you not disgusted at the guy who was arrested?

  • Intel is on the BDS list though

  • Reddit @lemmy.ml

    Is it me or is Reddit really bad now?
