I am sooo xxxx pissed. The EU had all the time in the world and all incentive imaginable to develop an "EU-OS" and an "EU-Office". Linux and other FOSS software was always there to build upon. And with EU founding it could have been an easy solution, making the world a better place in the process.

But instead so many xxx politicians rather made some nice deals...

Now we reap what the EU parliament did.

Get a hobby. You'll always need/want stuff if you become a photographer or a fisherman or a pnp-player or a ...

But if they were doing Asahi Linux for fun as a hobby, and if it isn't fun anymore for a variety of reasons, then you really can't blame them.

I have 0 knowledge about this project, so my statement here is just a general statement.

But if a developer collects donations for promising something, then this is not just "for fun", but they do have a moral obligation to try doing a good job.

It seems they overfullfilled their obligations (but all I know about it, are the words of the developer). So, as said above, this is a general statement.

edit: lol you guys are funny, but maybe read my comment. I talked about "doing his best" and about "things they promised". You really think it is okay to say "I will try project A, I need donations" and then go on a holiday with the donated money and do nothing else? Do you thing this attitude will get people to donate anything?

You can also exploit people with it. Kinda like a swiss knife of psychopathy.

Is it fair to say that Ayn Rand's philosophy is basically ruling our lives?

Of course everything a company does is in the best interest of the company.

That is not true, but that is part of the problem and also why Steam is at least a little better for us customers. Most companies only do what is good for the stakeholders short term, Valve does what is good for the company/single owner long term. And happy customers are good long-term, but not so important short-term.

It is still capitalim, and thus still terrible. But a tiny bit less terrible.

Like VW is paying out 4.5 billion € in dividends, while telling employees they have to cut wages. They played it clever by announcing huge layoffs, that can be prevented by cutting the wages now. But the Porsche-Piech family is a few billions richer now and will be a few billions richer at the end of the year.

On the plus side, real estate prices will likely continue to fall in the region.

This will play into it. But Valve allows stuff that cuts into their immediate profits, like e.g. third party sales. I think ensuring market dominance by ensuring customer satisfaction is the more important part of the decision. Steam is imo meant to stay a quality product with a reliable turnover. They are not aiming to become a bookmaker, like the play store or apple store basically are nowadays.

I am not from the US, but I thought the US greens were somewhat okay? (Unlike the german greens.)

And you are welcome to come over anytime. That is why we love lemmy, no? At least that is why the admin of .ml created lemmy.

But, yeah, people here don't really like genocide enablers, even if they are democrats.

Yeah, but you still have to differentiate between teenagers trying out their borders and pathological cleptomania.

Id say easily half of my high-school class had a shoplifting phase.

Yeah, but I'd aggree with MissJinx. Lots of teenagers occasionally shoplift. But stealing a significant amount of money from your brother is imo defintly a big red flag.

Still, going open with it is a really great step imo. But I'd also say, that if you ever again feel that urge, professional help would be a good idea.

I got this a few minutes ago. And this probably shows how much chatgpt is fucked up by the bias in western media.

Edit: a friend of mine did the same query on the app (I used the website) and got different results. So different versions produce different results. They probably manually corrected this in newer versions (is my guess). The older results still show the massive bias.

I mean, I don't like Abunimah and clashed with him on twitter before (I think it was on Syria). But calling him an "islamist" is just pure bigotry. Bullshit vilifying over-generalisation is why islamophobe fascists are on the rise in Europe. The term "islamist" has become utterly meaningless. "Oh, he is brown and I don't like him? He is an ISLAMIST!"

Lol, I have to check out if I can block you. I despice right wing trolls. But this is the headline of the article you cited and on which I commented:

"Erneut hätte ein Islamist in Zürich auftreten sollen, nun ist der Mann verhaftet worden. Regierungsrat Mario Fehr spricht von einem «Judenhasser»"

Und "Islamist" heißt auf english halt "islamist". Versuch nicht meinen Kommentar zu verdrehen. Unglaublich, AFD-Taktiken...

My whole comment was about the use of the word islamist and you act like I defended him. I call this "ill faith".

Then why does you answer to my comment have nothing to do with the point of my comment.

Maybe it have to spell it out: My point was that western media use the word "islamist" utterly arbitrary to attack brown people of any ideology, thus rendering the term useless. And that is discustingly racist. This is especially true for far right media like the NZZ that you cited.

Your point was that you apparently presume that I defend him, which I didn't. He blocked me ten years ago in Twitter after a heated discussion. I don't like him.

I now presume that your are discussing with bad intentions.

And how does this make him an islamist?

You've just involuntarily proven my point that the word "islamist" is just utterly arbitrary and mostly just used to hide racism at this point.
