yeah sorry i didn’t mean to sound rude. It’s just that I’ve heard too much “corporate bullshit talk” that i can’t just stay calm when i hear it.
The technological innovations of the last fifteen years, from advertising enshittifcation to AI cheating, have largely been a disaster. We are sadly at the point where, as Ted Gioia says, “most so-called innovations are now anti-progress by any honest definition.” I dare say that if we could revert all digital technology to where it was in 2009 – before the invention of the retweet – we’d all be better off.
I’d go back even further (to 2007) before the invention of the iPhone. The smartphone has, arguably, IMO been a bad, or at least premature invention. It created a generation of kids obsessed with their photographies, giving girls eating disorders and creating/spreading unrealistic beauty ideals, etc… Also it has severely disrupted teenagers’ social living, created sleeping disorders, chronic doomscrolling, addiction, and more bad stuff. The iPhone was, IMO, not ready for this world.
Yeah at this point peertube is mostly a video hosting system. We still need a good discovery/finding/recommendation system. I think that could be independently developed; for example: upload the videos on peertube and then link and post them here on lemmy to promote them.
I was going to upvote but then:
Hopefully it will start leaning into its unique strengths now and become really innovative.
Please stop the corporate garbage talk/pitching bullshit. Can’t we have a normal discussion without these buzzwords?
So I feel like I’m doing peertube wrong. I’m trying to find good content, but it feels like every single instance I find is just “here’s the linux news, here’s the new linux tips, here’s the linux gossip, linux linux linux!” And I do not give a shit about linux. I just want to find the non-tech, non-video game content.
There’s also https://pony.tube ;-)
isn’t that why the hippie movement ended?
show them random scenes from their lives, remind them of the choices they made.
btw I read the guardian a lot, and they have a lot of good articles.
the exact same thing has happened to me.
went to school and the general social narrative was that “men are all bad people, we should avoid them altogether”, which, of course, is discrimination. The consequence is that you mostly intimidate sensitive guys that way, the guys that aren’t actually a problem. It definitely leads to a lot of mental health issues for young men, especially (later) mtf ones (as i’ve observed).
What we can do about this, I think, is the general strategies against discrimination (point it out, talk about it, etc.) and ask questions such as “she may be offended if i ask her out, but she also may be offended if i don’t ask her out” (girl not feeling pretty, wanting/needing attention, etc.).
things will get better again, my friend. keep your pride to yourself, if you’re too afraid to show it, but keep it anyways.
fair
This applies for computer games as well.
Just saying “just make a game that people actually want” doesn’t really help.
Yeah, but actual numbers would be nice.
It would be relevant compare SpaceX’s environmental damage to that of any other big company.
Very interesting read.
I also like how, at the end, it changed perspective to say “actually, our problem is not software, but politics”.
We must be aware of what agents we encourage and discourage through our actions.
so, Facebook?
Been doing this for the last 12 years of my life; never realized it had a name.
If the disk is internal and only used by linux, you should 100% use ext4.
NTFS is what windows uses. exFAT is like really, really old file system that is only used because of its wide compatibility nowadays. USB-sticks use them, because they have to be compatible with any device where you couls potentially stick them in.
Yeah there’s actually documentaries about this: like this (it’s in german though)
