  • I could imagine a future where Windows is just a proprietary DE over a Linux system. I don’t think it’s coming anytime soon because of the development cost it would impose, but I don’t see why they would go to such efforts maintaining a system they could get for free if the desktop user base keeps shrinking. They’re just too greedy not to do that. Even the backwards compatibility with Windows software is becoming a solved problem.

    Aside from my above rant, the PC is definitely fast becoming an enthusiast/business platform. I opened a retirement account the other day through my smart phone!

  • Throuple of 7 years here. It absolutely can work, but please exercise extreme caution. It requires a level of discipline and security that just isn’t realistic for most people.

    Many people will tell you it doesn’t work out, but the same can be said for relationships in general. There’s always risks. There’s no life worth living without risk. If you want to do this, you need to ask yourself some deep questions and answer honestly before you get hurt.

    In the same way relationships aren’t just about sex, you need to know as sure as you can be if you can handle a relationship of three. It’s all the trouble of two and then a huge scoop more. It has got to be worth it, and a lot of it isn’t glamorous.

  • It's always going to be a subjective process. The difference is I try to base it on effort and value for time. I'm not a computer but I can influence what I value. I can appreciate a good argument or an opinion I don't like. I'm not perfect, but I think I can strive for that.

    If that feels like the same thing as approval, then I perhaps a moment of self-reflection on whether things can have value that one dislikes is in order. I hope Lemmy won't become more of an echo chamber than it already is.

  • But national Republicans have already spotlighted Tuesday’s primary. “Every single Democrat now owns Mamdani’s radical socialist agenda to defund police, abolish prisons & stop ICE from deporting criminals,” the committee posted later, quoting House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries congratulating Mamdani.

    Guess I'm socialist.

  • Upvote: any insightful contribution even if I don’t agree with it.

    Downvote: Remove this. Don’t show it to others. Was not worth my time to read this content because it contains false information, trolling, etc.

    I’d like to encourage others not to use down votes for simple disagreement. Lemmy needs participation from thinking people.
