It sounds rough to say, but I genuinely think this is part of a new American revolution, the people have had enough. It shows, I’m not saying we should go out and kill execs, but I am saying I wouldn’t be surprised if something like that happens.
Let me ask counter OP, say a full out rebellion occurred against the corporate oligarch class, ten years from now we have had a bloody and violent change from people who felt they had no other recourse. It was unpleasant but now we are in a society where the general public is much better off and it was generally remembered as a “war on corporate corruption” and the rich are much less willing to tread on their fellow man
In this pretend scenario the killers are now labeled freedom fighters, and public opinion is that it was a necessary overthrow of an unjust system. How would you realistically feel about the man now? I believe it’s all about societal context, and and the line between justice and a slaying does tend to blur after a certain, very extreme point has been crossed.
Now In reality, has that point been crossed yet? I don’t know, that’s yet to be determined, but I feel we will know sooner or later
To be fair, noone allowed it, it just kind of happened. And this is just kind of something that happens after things reach a tipping point in society, it’s happened throughout our entire history in one form or another and will be happening all the way into the year 50 million assuming we make it that long
Sorry, I just don’t think it’s him, different backback straps and pockets where there weren’t any before, this is turning into another Boston bomber misidentification. But this time it’s the NYPD instead of reddit making the mistake
What’s the issue? If I move I have to move like 4 things
So to offer a reason “why” specifically for me it was because I have been hanging out with some game devs lately and they f****** hate steam, like it is the vein of their existence, so they showed me this one site and they were like this is the best one in our opinion, of course it’s a little biased but I can see where they’re coming from
Edit: chill out y’all I’m just relaying what I was told, I use steam too, but it also does have a huge grasp on the market and that makes it unfavorable for devs
That last part was worded very strangely, could you rephrase it so it’s easier to understand what you’re trying to say?
Paywall
Go to a doctor
I work for a lighting and staging company and it’s different with each artist, some we hold on to for the artists, some are donated to us, most are kept on the tour trucks with the crew chiefs keeping eyes on them all the time
Sounds like a good time to promote a movie
Better fit
Of course, none of us would actually do that, but what I’m trying to say is that’s the threshold. For linux to become mainstream like plenty of users on here seem to vehemently believe, it HAS to start taking cues from windows, that means easier install methods, dumbed down and less terminal based procedures, and more support from mainstream and less open source software manufacturers. Otherwise the average person is going to look at linux and say “that looks hard.” full stop.
And I would reckon a lot of those changes would not go over well with current Linux userbase
Bet, go ahead and grab your parents or the nearest old fart you know who isn’t tech savvy and try to get them to install linux, libre Office, and thunderbird and attempt to use it.
$100 says they won’t make it through using rufus without help
This is absolutely the attitude he was just talking about, you can’t agree, then add a “but”
Linux is not the fix for all that ails you, and it’s especially not the fix for non tech-savvy people, which as a reminder, is most people. Lemmy is not a good baseline for this because we’re all savvy enough to get onto the fediverse in the first place, which in itself is very confusing if you’re non tech savvy or coming from a place like reddit, where things are so fundamentally different.( Which i know for a fact most of you have experienced at some point)
Oh cool a personal attack, that means you’ve definitely got your sources down and are arguing in good faith instead of becoming a whining 5 year old /s
I mean does it matter if you’re frank and say "its happening because you didn’t pay? Its not like they can go to the cops or something
Thanks but Im just going to go ahead and do my own thing. Everyone’s very insistent about doing things a certain way in this thread and honestly its unsolicited advice. Not everything is an XY problem :). I’m just going to install my different, unconnected libraries and tinker in peace
Well I mean obviously the answer is eggs
I think when he said he was working, it may have been classic era (Dont quote me on that)
