Grew up with ms-dos. Spent half my career in telnet and ssh consoles.

When I just want to play Balatro at the end of a long day fuck any system that requires more than click click to get me in.

That's why I'm switching to Linux when windows 10 is no longer supported because fuck win 11 and the amount of regedits it's gonna take to get that working.

Stupidest timeline so far.

Housing and human rights matter and we should stop spending so much money on bombing houses and killing people.

Go to warm it up and find yesterday's tea in the microwave...

We need to convince the billionaires that this is the cool thing for them to do...

Re: marketing etc comment at the bottom

This is certainly marketing, whether for the product or the service. However, it's also got an educational component which is why I've enjoyed Slant3D's videos - I have no use for a print farm service but some of the ideas and principles they want to encourage still apply to my hobbyist designs. That said, whenever I talk about 3d printing with friends and family, someone will talk about doing it as a business and I point to a service like this for that.

There is certainly a grey area to balance but I would lump this content in educational and worthy of discussion. And that's probably the biggest thing to encourage with a post here - where is the discussion going when sharing content. As a community grows in volume of posts, stricter standards and forking off communities for different niches need to happen.

BB being able to protect itself from the big players is actually a success story of patents. The 800 lb gorilla's of the industry never made as good of a keyboard, but if they could have copied BB's superior design, they would have stomped them in a heartbeat.

There's a lot of shit about what happens for a dying company and selling patents and so forth that absolutely is scummy. Serious discussion needs to happen there, but calling for them to be abolished? That's just naive.

Hummingbird the drone unicorn?

My brain is itchy now.

I deleted FB from my life a few years back, but I'm like >< this close to trying to set up a domain and my own friendica just for family. Back in the days of chronological order, FB was really nice for sharing photos and life event stuff. Now, saying that out loud (so to speak), maybe Pixelfed would satisfy that too - no idea because I never used it's corpo cousin!

Some things are more important.

Oh god it's so true...

In the movie the glasses let the wearer see the truth. This template is often used backwards but it's correct in this case.

Showerthought: Someone somewhere probably attempted to sell "meat that cooks while it's shipped!" with radioactive plates/packaging.

Early 20th century snakeoil salesmen were wild when it came to radioactive shit.

I've noticed this and really thought it was the website. All sides lose.

Enshittification at its finest.

Different scales. Money is a simple -infiniti to +infiniti. Problems is a parabola that starts starts at +infiniti, approaches zero (without ever getting to zero) before returning to +infiniti when graphed against Money.

The people that coined this phrase clearly lived on the cusp of that return upward on this graph so their observation is limited to that subset.
