I am not super upset but try to restrain your violent fantasies. If I can you can. This place would be unreadable if we all poured our bullshit here. There are comms more suited like ncd

Why is there a random comment wanting to nuke some god forsaken country out of the blue this is just internet things

OP: look at my cat
Cumlord69: we should nuke Azerbaijan

They keep saying many words waving hands frantically and people still don’t like it. I bet if they explain 10th time with colourful diagrams and 3 minute whiteboard explainer video people still won’t like it. Such an ungrateful crowd

You need hands on workshops, we will organise them with foundation budget. That will surely explain things sufficiently. We will also give out informational flyers in small communities to foster local enlightenment.

I remember my parents saying „hey don’t use it yet it has to warm up” and it really had to otherwise all sorts of unexplainable things would start to happen. Cold start of pc in the morning was really important ritual that no cc cleaners could shorten.

Also viruses that would modify browser to something funny. A president of my country with a serious stare appeared at one point in my browser stating that this pc is seized by the government.

It scared the shit out of young me with all the pirate CDs I had from street vendors. I don’t think even my windows was legit but a pirated one installed by PC parts business as an extra

To be honest I hate modern web and only Lemmy is feeling cool somewhat again. Everything else about digital landscape has become lame af. Without the struggle things lose any meaning

Even something as straightforward nowadays as VPN install can educate a person about cybersecurity as a side effect.

Thing is most stuff is simply too easy too acquire nowadays. No effort. No thought. Just endless stream of dopamine that is too addicting to even bother inquiring about how the very thing you are using works.

The victory of convenience will defeat us. There has to be some effort needed to acquire things otherwise they lose any value.

At least it will raise tech literacy among youth. If it isn’t as easy and would require some thinking that’s already better than 99% of homework.

God, I hate fanboyism. Maybe, maybe the criticism was warranted? idk just a thought. If someone fucks up everyone can point it out. Of course there are always people who will defend and deny anything no matter what… like star citizen fans or hardcore apple fans

Now we can see that they corrected some of their mistakes, very good

But nah some ripcord must try to stir shit instead of enjoying the good news. Apparently being still salty about bad comments smearing their favourite company…

Yeah well Mozilla is probably on of the more ok things to fanboy if someone absolutely can’t live without that but it’s still a bit cringe

Elonstan in 2024? Who where?

I have a theory that this guy tried his own implant tech which terribly failed and left permanent brain damage. it’s one way to explain the sudden and progressing unhingedness

Yeah where? You just said down voted like your personal opinion on the post mattered. Then edited to say upvoted like anyone cared or you were deluded into thinking it was thanks to your little tiny point down

Maybe I am angry but the frikin internet archive is going down, I hate this shit

Seriously no one cares if you downvote or upvote stuff. Get lost with your inept attempt at manipulation

Yeah and I was supposed to stay calm and cute this whole week see what you have done with your shitty comment?

Fuck yes, we need to get our hands on this stuff for fucks sake. I have shit there I don’t even know I need yet

Can someone fucking near get their ass there and do a legendary copy paste operation on a massive scale

Yeah well if they call/mail you specifically getting your contact from some leak database you can safely mark them as scam. As great number of them are.

Similarly you wouldn’t give money to beggars in the street because you know most of them aren’t in need of help but make money like this, scamming ppl while those that really need help are helped by various legit orgs you give money to instead.

Those scummy orgs are like these beggars manipulating you into pity. It’s very powerful manipulation mechanism and very often works. My grandma was scammed like this many times before we persuaded her to not send money to random people. Instead you should sit down, browse the list of legit orgs and choose one/few to support once a year/month with some amount.

Or you can just pay taxes if in a country with robust, developed social welfare system and enjoy.

IA my guess is they are mostly legit but it’s puzzling where they ended up

Of course, it happens all the time with many non profit orgs. They even pest you and call people for donations. You didn’t know?

My grandma is pestered daily from some organisations that ‚help poor kids’ or whatever. Pretty lucrative business.

Some even get public money and are connected to politicans that sometimes launder public money through them, seemingly with no consequences.

Legitimate ones will never whore for cash with spam emails or calls and won’t be connected to government. All the rest are just get rich schemes.

You have to do proper, thorough research before you donate money to some kids helping org or similar. Else you will just fund someone’s Porsche.

Fuck.

I really hope someone gets hold of the data and shares it on p2p or otherwise. If all this data is deleted it would be equivalent to nuking pyramids or burning Picasso paintings.

I did it by selling soul to apple completely, I mean I am not going to peddle another company but at least it isn’t google. However I can afford to throw some cash on their overpriced stuff. They suck but at least they aren’t google. I don’t use any google services right now. Not even maps. Without any cons because obviously I just use apple stuff for everything wallet etc

I could use framework laptop linux + graphene os but I need to live and thrive among ppl and also get that sweet social credit for not being a total nerd that yells about evil corps and how I have superior privacy in the basement left and right. However I would if it was socially acceptable.

I am going to follow this shitshow with great interest

That sounds fun, you changed his life forever. From now on he will always think that just around the corner there is a Big Zoo agent, waiting to get their hands on an unpainted horse.

Lmao

Seeding fake news in the minds of clueless folks is quite fun feeling, you should try it sometime. Makes you feel like a god, shaping the reality itself
