  • non technical people are doing pretty well, because they don’t try to install photoshop or nvidia drivers downloaded from the nvidia drivers page.

    The “windows power user” are the hardest demographic, because they expect to know what they are doing but the don’t if they are new to linux.

    What did LTT write in the terminal again: “i know that this opperation will delete my gui and i am sure that i want that”, presses enter and wonders why his gui is gone. go figure


  • It’s not about understanding. It’s about sorting,

    Everybody understand both notations, but if you use it for filenames sorting is important. Natural sorting order is an important feature that should be considered.

    day month year is just stupid in that regard. Not only does the of the month depend on the language, but also if sorted you get the first of every month grouped together.



  • Sorry mate, english is not my first language. I just wrote a response anyway but lemmy bugged when i tried to post it. :(

    I think everyone can act like a monster if he thinks the other person deserves it. unfortunately all the negativity in the media and from influential people enforces this worldview.

    I try to abstain from and to not discuss shit like that. Life is too short to be angry about things i can’t change. What i can do is act as good as i can in my personal life and that’s about it.

    Have a nice day and don’t let the negativity get the best of you


  • Then explain human history and literally everything else we know

    For what? This would change nothing. The only thing you can change are your own actions at this very moment.

    It is only denial, optimistic bias, self delusion, and other mediating psychological effects that allow us to see ourselves as anything better

    “Everyone is an asshole, so it’s okay for me to be an asshole too”?!

    You do you! I strongly believe most people don’t enjoy seeing other people suffering. I’m no saint either but I try my best. I think that’s a way better starting point than your take.


  • I’m with you on that. Most people all to thankfully give up their responsibility and do what they are told. The less they see the outcome of their actions the better (drone Pilots for example).

    Anyway, i think the stanford prision experiment is a bad example for that though, because it also incorprates peer pressure and concludes that nobody will think twice doing harm to others, as long as they are told to do so by authority. Humanity isn’t that bad I hope







  • “Allowed and supported” is something different then “its possible”. The article mentions some points that seemingly haven’t been “supported” in the past:

    • Stop requiring Google Play Billing for apps distributed on the Google Play Store (the jury found that Google had illegally tied its payment system to its app store)
    • Let Android developers tell users about other ways to pay from within the Play Store
    • Let Android developers link to ways to download their apps outside of the Play Store
    • Let Android developers set their own prices for apps irrespective of Play Billing

    Google also can’t:

    • Share app revenue “with any person or entity that distributes Android apps” or plans to launch an app store or app platform
    • Offer developers money or perks to launch their apps on the Play Store exclusively or first
    • Offer developers money or perks not to launch their apps on rival stores
    • Offer device makers or carriers money or perks to preinstall the Play Store
    • Offer device makers or carriers money or perks not to preinstall rival stores

    Thanks Mr. Epic Judge


  • Give it two more years and brave will stop backporting manifestv2, then you have even less options to avoid google deciding which content needs to be shoved in your face.

    I’m using Firefox since forever. In the past I have checked a few times if a swap to chromium is worth it. It never was.

    I really don’t understand people that prefer Google over Mozilla. Firefox works like a charm and Google already knows enough about us IMHO.

    LPT: Fill your mouth with water, hold your head back and open mouth. drop the pill in. close mouth and swallow the water.

    you wont even feel the pill.

    by throwing the pill into the water already in your mouth instead of putting itin your mouth and then drinking the water, the pill wont have a chance to stick to your tongue or gums and release its bitter/nasty taste.
